[OOC] X-Men: United We Stand

[CrimsonWarrior55]

That's a good idea. Too bad it's far too late to implement here.

[Kalamadea]

I dunno. In my experience, activity pledges tend to kill RP's more often than they save them

[Omega Man]

Got an interested party up for joining our merry misfits of mutant academy!

~KL~

[Kalamadea]

Nice. Maybe some fresh meat will help my muse out.

[CrimsonWarrior55]

So long as they aren't a jerk-ass, I don't care. Kala's right, it might be a big help to get fresh mea, er I mean... a new cadet.

[Damo021]

I promise not to set them on fire :P

[Zagan]

Hello all, ill get by to posting soon (ish) :P

My character:
Name: Alex Smith
Age: 17
Apperance:
http://s984.photobucket.com/user/Ellevana/media/256Male/Kaleb_zps12e2d4f4.jpg.html
Power:
Terra-Kenisis (Earth manipulation) – as the name implies, its like telekenisis, but he is only able to move and manipulate the earth, create beings and control them like puppets or simple things like being able to get around faster
Personality:
While not the most social person to have ever existed, Alex is what he would describe as an observer, a slight outsider of the social scene standing on the borders of being an outsider. He is able to get what he needs from anyone, being able to guess accurately what would need to be said in order to provoke a certain reaction or to gain co-operation from the person he is talking to, but over all society would label him antisocial but over all a nice person, never really using his skills for malicious purposes; as this goes against his ethics of being a pacifist.

History:
Childhood to Preteen:
Apart from living in fear of the mutant outbreaks – Alex had much the normal childhood, he was picked on a lot for not being a mutant in a population that has a large percentage of mutant kids about the city, and so learnt to keep attention away from himself, yet through all this he did experience the normal things in life, girlfriends, hobbies, family outings.

Teen to current (including getting his powers)
As he hit his teens, he moved up to high school. He had seen the information about the new teachers and the extra security measures to protect the students, both mutant and non mutant alike – and this relieved not only himself, but his parents as well; even though they (Alex’s parents) claimed to be liberal – there deepest darkest fear was that Alex would be a mutant – his grandfather (his dad’s dad) had been a mutant and they worried the X gene could be passed down, although they never talked about it with Alex in the house, they both prepared for the worse....

It was a week before Alexs 17th Birthday and he was walking home from school when he got jumped by three mutants in senior year, they didn’t say what for – something happened, the guys who jumped him woke up in the hospital a year later, Alex meanwhile limped home – only to see in the reflection that something was different, not human – was this a gift or curse? What would his parents think? As he opened the door, he was met with two very angry and frightened adults with make shift weapons – the fight was short and brutal, his father leading the charge – and paying the price, his mother sank to the floor and passed out, taking the chance – to flee, but making sure to keep on at the school while trying to survive when schools out.... it was due to this that he came to hate violence and believed that life is better lived walking a more peaceful path

Fave subject: None
Fave Teacher: None
Time at institute: 4 days

[Kalamadea]

[Zagan]

:O how rude :P

[CrimsonWarrior55]

Don't worry, so long as you're not a jerk-ass you'll do fine here. Nice intro post by the way. Really sets up your character. Time to meet.

[Zagan]

yeah, i dont think I have ever been a jerk-ass :) so thats good, and thanks - glad it was cool :D

[CrimsonWarrior55]

Okay, and I posted. Don't mind Steve, dude... he's like me... a dork.

[Zagan]

Nice post. Ill reply soon

[CrimsonWarrior55]

I'm gonna give the others some time to post, but it they take too long, I'll post. I just don't want this to turn into a 2 player RP.

[Silver Carrot]

I'm debating dropping out, because I don't even know what's going on anymore.

[CrimsonWarrior55]

Silv, nothing has really happened since you last posted. And nothing has happened at the apartment. You should be fine. But if you need help, just ask.

[Silver Carrot]

Ah, ok. So I'm basically waiting to someone else who was at the apartment.

[CrimsonWarrior55]

Indeed. You're basically waiting for either pain, KL, or someone else who happens to be there. I can eventually get Steve over there, but I need to bring the new guy into the story first. And as I said up there, I wanna give some of the others a chance to post too.
