There exists a world nearly identical to our own, with President Obama in office, Vladimir Putin making a mess of Russia as of late, The Royals of England have a couple of babies, and there was only recently a discovery made that would forever change the course of man kind: The X-Gene.

So named for it's randomness in an individual's cellular structure, it plays havok with their minds, bodies and souls as it grants them the capability to be so much more than what they are.

This discovery has manifested itself in a group of young people across the world, from all walks of life. Some people see them as the evolutionary next step, some people see them as Gods, and then there are those who don't understand. Those people don't want to understand, they want something to be afraid of, to rally behind.

But what do these New Mutants see themselves as? And what will they do with their visions?
____

This roleplay will take place within as realistic a world as possible, and though it takes concepts and ideas from Marvel Comics, there won't be any Avengers, Defenders, blond guys with giant hammers, ect.

In regards to action vs story, I would like to see story and character development to take precedence. After saving the day, they hang out and do whatever it is they do, and learn about one another until the next threat arises.

Also, this will be played out in an episodic format, and with a round table type of discussion where everyone gets a say in the story.

Obvious rules apply, as well characters needing to be 18 or older (it would just be better that way). If sexy time occurs, take it to the pms. Sexy time should only occur though when two characters have naturally progressed in a relationship to that point, or if they were created to actually take part in hook-ups and such.

I'd also like to have a co-gm, something this big shouldn't have just one person in charge, but two people bouncing their heads off one another, creating together and being in charge together. I'm not a dictator or a grammar Nazi, i'm a flexible dude.

Lastly, have fun :)

ROLEPLAY EPISODE INDEX-
Episode 1: Introductions Are In Order

I'm assuming those are WIP's?

You betcha.

Alistair is finished.

Name: Walt Ashmore

Age: 21

Personality:
Walt is a womanizing playboy who has a taste for the finer things in life. He's the kind of guy who has an ulterior motive for everything he does, and he is always thinking ahead like a Futurist. Despite these attitudes, he wants to leave this world with a legacy of good intentions.

X-Gene Mutation(s)
Impenetrable Skin- Walter's epidermis is nigh invulnerable, and nothing short of a high velocity, high calibre rifle round can bruise him. There are ways to get around hurting though, and this involves any external organs or holes in his body (eyes, mouth, ears, and a couple of areas down south)
Enhanced Durability of Skeletal Structure- Walter's bones are extremely durable, and nothing short of 10,000 pounds of force which is 2,000 pounds of force less than an average locomotive exerts at full speed.

Occupation: Party Boy/Trust Fundee/Philanthropist

Other/Bio: It will be revealed through the IC

Why do we need to be under 25?

Because a person isn't completely mentally developed until 25-28 while they may be done with the physical side of things. This is all about the young people, the next generation.

Alright then I'll be leaving then.

Glad you started this up again!
Will get a character up as soon as I can.

Just made the figurehead of the Mutant Movement :)

finished officer shark.

Officer Shark and everyone else is accepted :)

This looks like fun. I'll get to writing up a CS soon.

I am going to, sadly, be gone from tomorrow to Thursday, but I'll try to get on my phone.

Personality:
To say that Mika is laid back and care free is putting it mildly. Very few people consider her to be anything more than a undisciplined youth who wastes her days away smoking, drinking, and partying the night away. Although, this isn't far from the truth Mika is also an extremely resourceful person who thinks on her feet and isn't afraid to take some risks in order to survive. Her independant lifestyle and questionable escapades circumventig the law were born of necessity but since then Mika has grown to enjoy being 'The Rebel'.
X-Gene Mutation
Pyromancy; the ability to create and manipulate fire as if by extension of her will. Mika can also convert her body into an amorphous cloud of flames and travel freely through the air.
Occupation
Local party girl, vagabond, and general troublemaker.
Other/Bio
Mika was raised by her struggling father who fought in MMA tournaments. He lost more than he won but always came home with money regardless of whether he won or lost. It wasn't until Mika was older that she learned he was taking money for throwing fights. He taught her it was necessary for their survival and that lesson stuck with her. Mika herself has been on the wrong side of the law since she was caught pickpocketing at the age of fourteen, long before she was found out to be a mutant. Since then she's honed her skills and become a relatively successful theif. Although she mostly steals food to eat, she has been known to steal money and other items carelessly left in stranger's pockets well within her reach. It wasn't until a year ago that she was caught on video lighting a cigarette with her middle finger. The video was uploaded to youtube and went viral for all of two weeks.

She's pretty :) and accepted

Considering that the rest of the team is law enforcement and silver-spoon rich kids I think Mika will be spending most of her time away from the group.
