NEW NEWS
OK mutants and mutantetts! We've come to the first storyarch of the game! We'll stop excepting applications till we're threw with it. Besides we nearly have 10 students right? That's plenty considering how many teachers and NPCs we have.
The storyarch is designed to let the students handel it. But all of our old characters will get a whack at what's going on. Even though it'll kick ya'll's asses! I, the humble [Ravenclaw] am controling what's going on so don't try and get too ahead of yourself and try to take the bad guy out single handedly. Lets hope this is fun!
Btw Monday I got another tattoo!! Guess who has the X-Men logo on the back of her neck? ME!!! Not really news I just wanted to boast. If you want to ask why I decided to get it message me. And no I didn;t get it because X-Men rock... well that too but there is a deeper reason than just that/
READ ALL ABOUT IT CRAZY MOD [Ravenclaw] FROM OLD GAME HAS MADE NEW ONE!!!
Some of you may be wondering what the hell is going on with a new game. Well I shall answer all your questions!
The New X-Men United is the EXACT SAME game as before just set 10 years in the future! It's got all the same old characters we know and love, some we hate *cough*EmmaFro
st*Cough* and even some new villans.
I've got all the required pages set up to start playing all I need are you loveable core characters from X-Men United to start making up new bios! Your character remains the same but 10 years older, a teacher and an active X-Man! As we all know we didn't REALLY play many classes from before so teacher is just a fancy title. Send your bios to me [Ravenclaw] and I'll see that they get placed in the X-Characters list.
You can also make up a couple of students. I think 2 for each mod is enough. No more than that. They should have unique powers like before. Just send me the bio as always.
All the rules are the same, I even just put the same link up with one added rule. Since most of us are playing adults and some of the teachers are married I figured a more adult vocabulary was in order. Before there was a "No Cursing" policy. Now don't go cussing a student out just for the fuck of it. But if you feel your character needs to say "SHIT!" or something go right ahead. Also a harmeless sexual referance is cool too. I'm not advocating cybering or anything just think along the lines of a prime time sitcom.
Instead of slightly confusing room numbers (I know I have a problem with remembering who goes where) I'm just doing a sort of Delaney and Kurt Smith's Room kinda thing. Instead of the number use your name and then "room" at the end.
Unlike the other game which was baised along the lines of the original animated series and the movies this game is sort of more Astonishing and New X-Men comic baised mixed with the movies. There aren't a whole lot of diferences. There are still aliens, power hungry mutants and some kick ass stuff just a few diferent characters, past situations and explinations for why stuff is different. Which I shall explain now as a sort of FAQ section.
Ok about the whole Emma Frost instead of Jean Gray thing. Those of us who read Astonishing X-Men know that Jean bought the big one in another phoenix saga thing. Why Scott and Emma are married I never learned but she is now the headmistress and he is the headmaster. More on why there is no Xavier later. Any hooo she's a bitch and a telepath for those of you who don't know and she can solidifie her body to a diamond hard form. I think the only thing that can hurt her is verilium. Some sort of metal. You guys reading the current Astonishing title DON'T YOU DARE FOR THE LOVE OF JIM LEE SPOIL IT FOR THE REST OF US WHO HAVEN'T READ IT!!! I plan on making that whole thing a story arch for the game.
Now for those of you wondering why there is no Professor Xavier. Have you been reading New X-Men? Shame on you that's why I chose the title for the game. Any way As in Astonishing Scarlit Witch went crazy, effed up the whole X-Men Universe (wolveriene was working for shield, Magnito was ruler of the earth and humans where sorta like slaves) any way she had a brain anurizim and before she died said "I wish mutants never existed." BOOM M-Day happened. 90% of the earths mutants lost their powers, the loveable old prof being one of them. Some shit happened in Astonishing: Deadly Genisis and Scott said "Fuck off you ain't one of us no more." Yeah that sounds like something Logan would say but you get the point.
You'll see a new character by the name of Laura Kenny Logan. This is the weapon-x created clone of Wolverine hense her last name. I'll add a bio for her and there is a story I'm working on where she comes to the school when she was 15. Any way keep a look out for a pale skinned 25 year old chick with black hair who dosen't talk much. She's part of the whole Logan is Delaney's grandfather triangle thing.
Now the fun thing, the Danger Cave! I could have just skipped it and made it the Danger Room but since 10 years has passed I figured it'd be cool to mix it up a bit more. There is a reason on why it's a cave instead of a room now in The Danger Cave but it's another added jem from New X-Men. I may use the explination as the first story arch for the game!
This is all a bit much to take in at once so I think I'm done explainging things for now. I hope you all will join seeing as how I put a lot of work into it.
