"Welcome to the Xavier Academy for Gifted Youngsters. Here you will be granted the best education along with room and board. We ask only that you follow our rules and do you're best for us, yourself, and our cause."
That was the message you received upon being granted entrance into this wonderful school for mutants. It's the standard greeting after all. Here you learn more than simple mathematics and grammar. You are given a home. A family. And training to control the gifts granted to you. They may seem more like a curse, but if you trust in yourself and those around you you'll see that there is a reason you were born with the abilities you were.
Still there are many who choose not to learn how to properly use their abilities and rather than utilize them for the betterment of mankind try to prove their own superiority. They attempt to do as they please believing themselves to be above the rest of humanity. This is another of our responsibilities. The protection of humanity and mutant rights. Mankind may not be ready to fully accept us yet, but they will in time.
So there you have it. It's fairly cut and dry. This is an X-Men RP. I'd like it to be low casual. Just something for fun you know? I'd rather it focus a bit more on the daily life of the character and maybe introduce a main antagonist and plot objective later on. For now I think it would just be nice to have an RP to play around with and play out the character's growth and interaction with others.
Rules:
1) I accept ideas and suggestions, but I do have the final say. Depending on the subject at hand I may put it to a vote if enough people are into a certain topic. However, always keep in mind that I am the GM and I do hold the power in this RP.
2) As far as characters go I believe it goes without saying that I don’t want to see any godmodding, powerplaying, overpowered characters, Mary sues, Gary sues, etc. So don’t do it.
3) I want characters to start off at a fair and somewhat even level. I want them to have room to grow not only personality wise, but power wise as well.
4) Please keep arguments to a minimum in the OOC. If it has to do with RP I will try to help resolve it. Otherwise, drop it or take it to PM.
5) As heroes we won’t be killing. It’s kind of hero Code. Although we may be forced to break the rules if necessary so some of us may need to be prepared. Still primarily the rule is no killing until I say otherwise.
6) Please be active. I understand that there are times when we cannot post or things come up. RL is important. You don’t have to talk about it if it’s personal, but drop a message or something if you can.
7) Be sarcastic, be playful, do whatever to have fun and enjoy yourself so long as it isn’t at the expense of someone else.
8) I as the GM reserve the right to change or add rules as I see fit
