Powers in the Verse OOC

So we got a little overly ambitious with the premise and, as everyone has probably noticed, it made it hard to really get things going. For that reason, we've decided to simplify everything and focus more on the faction that seems to have the most interest - the rebels on Serenity X.

We will be doing away a couple of the current factions, and the characters involved in those organizations will need to be rewritten to fit elsewhere. We're still working on a more comprehensive rewrite of the premise, but for now, here's what's going to happen:

The X-Men will remain as they are, on Serenity-X, with one big change - Magneto will be filling the position generally taken by Xavier. We will also be restructuring slightly so that everyone is assigned to a ship, for mission purposes. Ship captains will act as team leaders on missions.

The Hellfire Club is one of the factions that we'll be nixing. Characters from this faction can be moved to Serenity X or independent teams.

Weapon X will also be closed off as a playable faction. The difference here is that characters can start off there, but must find their way out of WX by the end of the turnover in which they are introduced.

Independents can still exist, but it would be preferred if they were allied to some other group, so that we don't just have a bunch of people floating around with no connections. For example, the Runaways will still exist on their own ship, but we're keeping them allied with the X-Men.

The Brotherhood didn't really exist before, but it will now. Led by Mystique and Destiny, their primary objectives are centered around Destiny's Diaries, which sometimes gets them into situations that are morally gray, to say the least. They will have a crew with them, but other independent crews can also be allies.

We're hoping to get all of this hammered out soon, and when we do, we will have a new rollover. Some of the old threads have been retconned, but some are still active.

If there are any questions or concerns, please poke a mod. We'll probably be bugging everyone individually about who they plan on keeping, so look out for that.

Get your spaceships in gear and your guns out, we're open, ladies and gents. As mentioned previously this is a bit of a "soft launch" meaning that we're not doing anything big and majorly plotty at the moment. This is just sort of a "up and at `em" so we can toss people together and get all those tasty creative juices flowing.

ETA: Probably should have mentioned this before. We're currently playing with the days: 15.03.2867 to 20.03.2867 (d/m/y format) and we'll just call the 15th Monday. Core Dates are based off the old Earth that Was calendar and are imposed throughout the Core and Fringe just to try and make things easier overall. Unless someone has a better idea in which case I'm probably open.

Alrighty, loves, how do we feel about a soft opening whereby we can go ahead and start doing threads with characters but not launch a big plot yet? I was thinking we could do the soft opening this week and then prime up more plottish things for around St. Patrick's Day?

Feel free to comment and share thoughts.
