    What kind of secrets should I make my society about?
    Community Answer
    I suppose it depends on what kind of society you want. Assuming you create the society for fun, it doesn't even matter much. It might be best if your secret is something you all work on, like a book containing information, or a secret mission or purpose.

    How do I create a secret society?
    Community Answer
    Get together with a close friend of yours who you can trust. Have a secret book and spy on people. In here you can write down what people do and you can have projects like animal life, or eco, things like that which you take a liking to. You can find good things on the internet. Have badges and passwords, consider a uniform and trap in case people come in when they're not allowed to. Put a sign up on the door, but if you think it will encourage others to go in, then don't.

    After the inductees recite an oath, have the leader of the group light candles for the people being inducted. Wrap the bottoms of the candles in tinfoil so wax doesn't get on people's hands.
  • Question
    What are some missions or operations I could do in a secret society?
    Community Answer
    As a secret society, it is helpful to pick a common goal when selecting missions and operations. You might decide that every member must learn something new, such as hypnosis. You could find ways to earn money together in a business partnership. One example, that may further the bonds in the group, could be to treat members to their favorite restaurant or choose a local charity to make an anonymous donation. Another cool idea would be to ensure that members of the society are taken care of when they need legal services or protection.

  • Question
    Can a kid start a secret society? I want to discuss what I really think about some people without getting into trouble.
    Community Answer
    Anyone can start a society, but remember that they are supposed to be fun. Gossip or making fun of others will make your society less fun. Instead, a good secret society shares new ideas, creates new languages, games, etc., or does something to make their world better. Think about the Power Rangers, for instance.
  • Question
    What if I don't want to do it for fun, I want to start an actual secret society, like the Illuminati?

    Basically, you should have a defined mission for your society (something actually achievable). Also, invite only people who you can absolutely trust into your society. You could also spread anonymous propaganda or have an excommunication ritual for those who break any rules or share the society's secret(s).

    Do something lots of people will see, then while you are in the spotlight, talk about your testimony.

  • Question
    How do I know who has the right job in a secret society?
    Community Answer
    Know what each person is good at. It’s better for people to volunteer for the job than telling them to do so. If two or more people want the same job, just draw lots and tell them to stick to their talents. Maybe each person could have a turn telling everyone what their good at. If a person is struggling to do their job, give them another one that fits.
  • Question
