Our World

In this RP, we consider the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies up to and including the first Avengers film to be cannon. There are roleplays that have happened in this timeline as well, forming our own Roleplay Universe (please click here to see the full in depth lore guide for our multiverse). We primarily cross over with the RP hosted by @BlueSky44, X-Men: Darkness Rising and Agents of SHIELD, another RP I host... although you do not need to be a member of either to enjoy this RP!!! Think of it like watching Ant-Man. Sure, there are nods and small cameos from the other Marvel movies, but you can enjoy it perfectly fine as a standalone film. In our universe, we have known that we were not alone in the world since 2012, due to the Incident. Aliens are real, powered individuals are possible, and almost anything seems to be possible.

O.M.E.N. was disbanded in June of 2020 by Presidential Candidate and leader Alexander Jakobsen. The organization was intended to protect US citizens from supernatural threats, but ultimately imprisoned, tortured, and killed innocents - especially mutants above all else. Yet while the institution has been disbanded and its resources were given over to S.H.I.E.L.D., its agents still hold grudges against mutants - the stain on humankind. The Purifiers largely draw membership from those angry individuals and while they are regarded as a hate group, local police often either turns a blind eye to their actions or is simply ill equipped to handle them.

Now, onto what you're all waiting for....Powers!

Mutants, also called homo superior, are powered individuals who gain their abilities due to an X-gene. This gene is something that is simply part of their genetic makeup from birth. It can be activated when the individual is subjected to great stress, often during puberty or traumatic moments. It's important to understand that while a mutant's powers can be called a mutation, they were born mutants. They did not mutate throughout the course of their lifetime.

Mutates are those who, as the name implied, mutated to gain powers. This is often due to the presence of electromagnetic radiation outside of the visible spectrum. Encounters with radioactive waste would certainly qualify. It is possible for those with an X-gene to mutate when exposed to radiation or other materials, but it is uncommon and also effectively 'neutralizes' the X-gene.

Inhumans, also called inhomo supremis, are individuals who are descended by unfortunate souls who were experimented on and had their genetic code modified. This unorthodoxy in genetics can be activated through a process called terringenesis, in which the inhuman emerges from something akin to a cocoon with newfound abilities and powers.

Deviances, as they are now understood, refer to (often) extraordinary abilities that distinguish someone from the average human. However, these are not differences on a biological or genetic level. While these can be small things, such as a sixth sense when it comes to healing and knowing what is wrong with the patient, it can be as dramatic as pyrokinesis. Deviances are a result of the shattering of the Cursed Flask in 1719, the shards which were recovered in 2018 by MI13. The flask's contents were said to grant immeasurable power, and with the contents mixing into the air in trace amounts, individuals can sometimes acquire slight abilities from exposure. There is currently no method of explaining why some people gain a deviance and others do not, however. This area of research is still relatively new.

Rules
*Rules are enforced and you will be removed if you break them.
  • Applications:
    • Post the CS in the OOC for review.
    • Change the color code to a unique one (i.e. not in use by a current character). Please try to avoid colors that are very similar to the eye as well.
    • Choose a faceclaim for your character that is not currently in use - if you're not sure if someone is using that FC, ask the GM. Faceclaims must be real life images - not drawings.
    • The GM can refuse a concept for any reason, yet will generally work with you to fix up the character until they can be accepted.
    • Talk to the GM if you want your character to have established connections (i.e. if this were a Harry Potter RP and you wanted to be Fudge's goddaughter, talk to the GM in advance for approval).
    • GM approved character sheets should be posted in a hider in the Char tab.
    • The GM will check posting history / previous RPs - you've been warned.
    • Once CS's are approved, relation sheet will go up and must be completed and added to CS
    • Under Extras in your CS please post a link to a post you have done in the past to show you have read the rules. If You submit a CS without this it may be declined.
    • Special - To New Comers To The Guild - Pm The Gm for a tid bit to add under extras instead
  • Post Content
    • No use of racial slurs in posts. Sure, you may be playing a racist white guy from the 1950s, so just use asterisks - you'll convey the same idea.
    • Nudity needs to be run by the GM before posting. In general, this is PG-13 when it comes to romance, sexual interactions, exposure, and so forth... Violence wise, anything goes. This can get gross.
    • Fade to black for things that verge into the area of smut/other taboo subjects. Seriously. Your post will be deleted otherwise.
    • The world and NPCs and events are controlled by the GM. If the GM says it's raining, then it's raining. Results will be randomized per dice mechanics.
  • Posting & General Behavior
    • Follow all of the rules of the forum - they're the law of the land.
    • If you need an extension or you're struggling - or even if you just aren't certain what to do - please reach out to the GM! Communication is key.
    • All posts are backed up on the back up forum after they have been posted - the GM will provide the link for this forum. It only takes a few seconds and it ensures all your hard work is preserved!
    • You must post once every 7 days - once your last post on RPG reads as 8 days ago you will be removed from the RP.
    • If you need an extension, ask!! Extensions should be requested no matter than when your last post reads as 6 days ago. If an emergency comes up on day 7, of course come and talk to us - we'll be more than happy to work something out. It's very rare that an extension request is denied.
    • You may NOT copy and paste something from someone else's post and add it to your own. This includes dialogue.
    • Minimal 2 posts between your last
    • No editing posts without GM approval.
    • Each post should include two well developed paragraphs (please don't make me define how many sentences are in a paragraph. If they're long sentences, then sure 5 is fine - if they're shorter, maybe 15 is best).
    • Read all posts! Seriously, people are reading yours so spread the love and read theirs!
    • No tagging for interactions in your post - people use this as a crutch usually to get away with not reading everything.
  • Other:
    • Character deaths will happen, no one is safe - it will be randomized and you will be notified when your death approaches. (This does not mean you are out of the RP, it will mean however you need to make a new character should you wish to continue - I recommend having Back Up Characters Ready)
    • The GM reserves the right to make decisions as to how much additional time, if any, will be granted to post if the forum is glitching. A week to post is plenty of time even if the forum glitches a day or two. But usually, I do tend to be pretty generous about it...
    • Rules and character sheet will be added to and changed as need be depending on problems or points that come up.
    • Under Extras in the CS also mention your favorite Marvel mutant so I know you at least skimmed this...
      Check the discord chat once a day. Invite will be provided by the GM.


Character and Relations Sheets

Please read through the instructions for this character sheet carefully. There are some sections that have special instructions and will depend on the type of character you are making. You are welcome to make both human and mutant characters. Characters should either be a member of the Mutant Underground or someone in Washington D.C. who will need the Underground's help shortly.


You will record your thoughts and opinions on other characters. To start the RP, you are required to have one relation to start with if you are already in the Mutant Underground. If you are not, you do not need any beginning relations. Human characters will require at least one relation with no exceptions. There'll be periodic moments throughout the RP where I ask that you update these.



The code below only applies to magic-users:

@Nallore Good to go, move her over. She needs at least one relation since she's in the Mutant Underground but you are welcome to do more. This can be with Veil, any of the NPC's in the Underground (except Magik), or any other character someone creates.

@Morose. May I join as well?. I am currently making a King Shark/Beast-based mutant. Although he is usually very gentle, he will bite if he has to, or his friends are threatened. He is quite a bit larger than King Shark since he is basically a wereshark that can't change back.

@Trainerblue192 Okay, few quick notes:
  • Birth place needs to be filled in
  • Birth year is incorrect - if he's 18, he would have been born in 2001
  • He's an interesting character overall :) I quite like him. All of the events are starting in the Washington D.C. area, so given his backstory, he would start in the Millennium Plaza Strip Mall area, where we have two characters already. Both of those are mutants who'll end up running from Purifiers/Police/No Spoilers soon

@RavensMuse This RP is intended to be original characters - so instead of playing a character from Marvel Comics, you get to create your own character. Marvel Comics characters can show up but primarily as GM controlled NPCs.

@Trainerblue192 Alright, move him over to the character tab. You are clear to jump in and start posting at Millennium Plaza. Here is a brief rundown of the spots there:
  • Nail Salon
  • Bank
  • Comic Book Store
  • Secondhand Book Store
  • Jeweler's
  • Boutique
  • Subway
  • Dunkin' Donuts
  • Candy Store

Got a concept, just making sure it is okay!

She'll be considered a telekinetic, primary talent is to "charge" her art, creating creatures who defend her. They won't be overpowered, she can only hold one of them out at a time, and will have a short shelf life.

She'll also be restricted to her sketchbook, if she doesn't have it, she can't summon.
