This is about anyone being told that they are part of a secret society. Often, they are also invited to join the society because they belong there. This trope can be used for Muggles who know too much in order to keep them quiet about the society. Though often, this is used for people who already are part of The Masquerade but don't know it, or those who know they are "special" but don't know where they actually belong, or used on those pesky Supers running about with no one to keep them in check. Normally a part of Fantastic Recruitment Drive. Related to I Am Who?, for when a character learns of his secret parentage. Subtrope of Broken Masquerade. Compare also Expositing the Masquerade, where the character being introduced is not necessarily a part of The Masquerade but finds people who can tell him of it, anyway. Also compare with Killed to Uphold the Masquerade and Join or Die. See also Tomato in the Mirror, for when a character sees with their own eyes a revelation about themselves. Examples |

In Pact, Blake introduces his entire friend group to the dark world of magic, after he is inducted into it by inheriting his grandmother's estate (and terrible karma, and library full of demonic tomes). Being made Aware allows them to see things that most Muggles can't, but also removes some protections from the nasty things that go bump in the night, so most of them choose to Awaken and become magical Practitioners, who can actively wield magic. Later, he also pulls in nearly all of his cousins and some of his aunts and uncles. | |

In Pale, set in the same world as Pact, our Trio of protagonists are recruited into becoming magical Practitioners by some of the local things that go bump in the night, also known as Others. They need the girls to help them investigate a mystery, and be seen doing so, in order to try to avoid interference by outside Practitioners. | |

In Skin Deep, humanity is filled with "Unturned" fantastic creatures, who were descended from an ancestor who owned a human-disguise medallion, and are covered by a semi-permanent version of the same spell that keeps them human all the time. Getting a medallion of their own breaks the old spell and reveals their true species. For some (like Jim), getting a medallion and being Turned is a normal part of growing up; for others (like Michelle), it comes as a rude shock. | |

On Grimm Nick is a Grimm and when he comes into his powers, his dying aunt did not have much time to explain to him what that entails or teach him about the world he is about to become part of. It is up to Monroe, a Blutbat Wesen, to become Nick's mentor in Wesen matters. Later on Nick brings in his Muggle partner Hank and fiance Juliette into the Masquerade because they are put in danger by not knowing what is really going on. | |

Theresa & Allison: Though it's officially forbidden, many vampires kill children and it's revealed this was what Allison got in trouble for. Others apparently get women they hold captive forcibly pregnant simply to drain their babies later. Theresa is utterly horrified by this. | |

Weregeek starts with Mark being chased by a Hunter of Monsters, before stumbling into a vampire coven meeting where he receives his welcome to The Masquerade... by being turned into a vampire himself. Then it turns out, that it's all just Deep-Immersion Gaming: the hunters are just regular bullies, and the vampires are a bunch of geeks LARPing Vampire: The Masquerade. Still, The Masquerade takes place IRL, as well, as the geeks have to hide their geekdom from Normal People, and Mark (a repressed geek himself) is welcomed to the geek subcultures for real this time. | |

In Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, the Connors actively try to keep the Masquerade up because they're afraid that they'll cause unpredictable Butterfly of Doom problems and because they know that many people will Go Mad from the Revelation about the horrible future. Notable exceptions and subversions include: Sarah repeatedly advises Ellison to stay away from the whole Time War situation. This backfires on her when his desperation to do something causes him to become The Dragon to Weaver, whose true nature and motivations he is ignorant of. In "Goodbye To All That", Derek Reese kills the Terminator sent to kill Martin Bodell in front of Bodell, to set up a Stable Time Loop and force Bodell to become the soldier Derek remembers him being in the future. |

Played with in the South Park episode "Ass Burgers", in which a support group for Asperger Syndrome that Stan joins turns out to be a society of cynics who think their view of the world as shit is what the world actually is, and what everyone else sees is dubbed as an "illusionary world", which is part of a plot involving aliens or whatever (they're not sure exactly what). They send Stan out on a crazy mission to liberate everyone from the so-called illusion they live in, getting him drunk in order for him to reenter the "illusion". They also claim that Asperger's doesn't exist, because why would it have a name that could easily be made fun of? | |

When fast-food vendor Zemelda Cleat witnesses a battle between an Amberley Vail and an alien species she is not supposed to even know exists, said Inquisitor promptly recruits her right on the spot - much to the surprise of Cain, who immediately assumed she would be Killed to Uphold the Masquerade. It is strongly, strongly implied that Amberley would have immediately done just that if Zemelda had refused, however... | |

Contradicted at first, when Griswalda says, "You two can be a gay fucking fellowship or some shit.". Later on, one of the Dyke Queen's footmen reveal that the Fellowship is mentioned in the Prophecy, thereby counting them as a secret society. It is possible that Griswalda has not read or heard the full Prophecy Of The Vagina Ass. It is also possible that he forgot the mention of the Fellowship within. |

In Hogwarts Legacy, while most wizards are detected at birth for some reason the Player Character isn't discovered to be a wizard until they're a teenager. As a result, they enter the titular Wizarding School as a New Transfer Student trying to catch up to their more experienced peers. | |

This has happened several times throughout the Assassin's Creed series. Any person discovered to have eagle vision, a genetic trait from the Isu precursors, is unknowingly a subject of great importance to both the Assassins and the Templars and, sooner or later, will find themselves a part of the secret war. Assassin's Creed II: Ezio Auditore was the first known instance, being raised in an Assassin family without knowing his heritage. After his father and brothers are publicly executed, he discovers his family's Assassin gear and operates alone for a while before being formal inducted into the Brotherhood. Assassin's Creed: Unity: Arno Dorian had a similarly unfortunate upbringing, the son of an Assassin, Arno is adopted into a Templar family after his father is murdered with the rare intent on welcoming him to their side of the masquerade. It doesn't end up happening and Arno is recognized by Pierre Bellec after being thrown into the Bastille for murder, who brings him back to the Assassins. Shaun Hastings wasn't supposed to know about the Assassin-Templar war, but his penchant for looking into conspiracies led him to Abstergo Industries (the modern day Templar Order). Because Templars are fond of killing people who find out about them, Shaun is kidnapped to be executed. It's Assassin Rebecca Crane that rescues him and promptly recruits him to the side of the Assassins. |

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines: One of the most unpleasant examples. The player character hooks up with someone in what is supposed to be a one-night stand. Then, they end up turned into a vampire. Then, other vampires show up to kill the sire, and drag the PC to a trial to determine whether or not they are to be killed. After getting out of a death penalty by the skin of their teeth, the PC has to spend their time proving their worth to the other vampires. | |
