Don't let the banner fool ya'!

There's plenty of space for OCs in the following RP ideas, including one that demands them!
Please see the "Canon or OC?" hiders beneath each title for specific details.

Also don't take the banner to mean each respective RP is meant to be that iteration of X-Men.
They're just visuals to make this interest check more enticing.



The world of comics is such a rich sandbox!

Routine and/or mundane aspects of life can become anything-but when you're dealing with powered individuals.

Perhaps this is no more true than with the world of mutants/the X-Men, who find themselves heroes or villains by the dictation of genes, only then followed by choice -if they have one at all. Trying to balance duty with desire or otherwise just lead a "normal" life even though theirs hasn't been since x-gene activation.

Mutant powers run the gamut, limited by certain in-story elements while in other cases, limited only by imagination!

How powers can combine (like Jean Grey's telepathy and Polaris' magnetism creating an "MRI for memories" in Issue #2 of X-Men 2021) or otherwise be utilized / unleased is exactly what I'm interested in.

Ideas might begin ordinarily enough, only to mutate into something eXtra!

So let's play it, and see where the mutation takes us! 🙌🌍✍

The Spex
  • Writing Level - Casual-to-Advanced
    So long as it gives something to build on and feels like you're "in this" rather than just passing time; a good length paragraph or so on average is acceptable, as is a word burst if you're jivvin' with it! ; ) Basically considerably more than free/one-liners, but less than a chapter's length per post.
    I come at RPing from more of an acting or screenwriting angle (or like a viewer describing what I'm "watching") than as an author, so I don't tend to have sweeping descriptions and don't require them to enjoy. A lot can be said through choice details and dialogue.
    That being said, I'll tend to reflect my partner. So if you like the concepts but think my style isn't going to hold your interest, give the RP a few posts and you might be surprised.
  • Format/Character Distribution
    Whatever will work nicely; I can double up to make any of these with a larger main cast work as 1x1s; you can double up. Some will play grander as a Small or Large Group, however. We'll feel it out. I'm cool with PM or standard thread (so if you wanna' just give it a try without pressure of other eyes on you, or whatever the reason, we can "keep to ourselves"; even move to thread afterward if we think we've got something we want to hit the road with).
  • Violence
    I'm pretty chill in this department; it can get gory (but absolutely doesn't have to). If it serves a character or story purpose, even better - Does a teammate (or civilian) get thrown in the way of Cyclops' optic blast and now we're dealing with the aftermath of unintended obliteration? Does someone come into a room to find someone else seemingly hacked n' slashed by an absent Wolverine, alive but just barely clinging to life, unable to relay what happened? Things can be detailed or generalized/left largely to the imagination.
  • Relationships
    I'm not into smut nor lust. If we want to indulge in some sensuality, that's cool. Presently I'm also more into love than romance. Flowers and candlelight are nice, but "seeing" and "hearing" your partner, being present with them when they're going through something, that's where it's at. Really I'm into connection in general; not just between partners, but platonic, familial. Let's Xplore the depths of it all.
  • Collaboration
    If it hasn't already come across, I'm all for this. I may have clear visions but if they were set in stone I'd be doing this solo. :) I look forward to the idea-trading at any stage: If you want to bang out a complete outline before starting, 👍! If you feel you can jump right in and see where the RP takes us and then you're like "hey, I think we could pivot here" or "something isn't quite working here", 👍! etc. My inbox is open to you any time.

Up for co-GMing these.
Partly because my past RP experiences never involved GMs, it was generally sandbox style. Actually leading an RP is new to me so the experience will probably be more enjoyable for everyone with a second pair of hands on the reins, and,
partly because like I say, a whole point to RPing is exploring a world outside of one's own mind. If I'm calling all the shots and holding all the surprises, some of that point is being taken away.

Let's Xplore a 🌏 together!
