The year is 1963.

It is a time in history like no other. There are those who feel that they are standing on the dawn of a golden age while others feel that the threat of nuclear war will tear the nation apart. The fire of the Civil Rights Movement is beginning to blaze with men and women standing up against oppression at home, as costumed superheroes and criminals begin to make their presence known.

Against this backdrop of conflict and change, a man named Charles Xavier is searching for others of his kind.

Xavier sees the turmoil ahead. He believes that a war against mutants may soon be coming--he sees it in the reaction of Americans to the threat of the bomb and the fear of mutation. His friend, Erik Lehnsherr, argues that violence should be met with violence, that mutants should strike first and enslave those who would harm them. But Xavier is not a man quick to anger and instead, he is preparing a sanctuary for those who would band together for protection. It is not children that he seeks but men and women--in case the battle is brought to their front door.

As movements march on and wars erupt, Xavier’s dream turns from fantasy to necessity. Where will it lead mutantkind?

MOST WANTED: Brotherhood members, Morlocks, Hellfire Club, Avengers villains, Warren Worthington III (Angel), Janet Van Dyne (Wasp), Sean Cassidy (Banshee), Benjamin Grimm (Thing), Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat), Piotr Rasputin (Colossus), Bobby Drake (Iceman), Remy LeBeau (Gambit), Shiro Yoshida (Sunfire)... and those not listed on our taken list.

Gangs of NYX - Apply Today!

[info]nyx_mods
[info]insane_games

A Marvel-centric AU RPG.
[info]gangs_of_nyx (IC) & [info]gangsofnyx_ooc (OOC) via [info]nyx_mods (mod)


The 1970s gave rise to many socio-cultural revolutions: the environmental movement , feminism, egalitarianism, communalism, the sexual revolution, pop psychiatry and self-help. But none of these were so radical or publicly criticized as the mutant revolution. Born with genetic alterations that gave them abilities beyond those of normal humans, the people known as Mutants are hated and feared.

Amid fear, prejudice and violence on both sides, the mutant revolution quickly grew to become a national crisis. The government dealt with this threat by creating Mutant Town, a small ghetto in New York City to house these people. Humans living in the nearby areas terrorize the mutants and a special police unit known as The Sentinels keeps them inside, while turning a blind eye to the atrocities committed in the name of homo sapien.

Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr, two mutants who in another time and place would be great leaders, decided that their home and brethren need to be protected. And so the two formed the gang known as The Brotherhood of Mutants; the costumes and codenames that in another world would signify them as heroes representing their unity as a gang. The Brotherhood began to protect the streets of Mutant Town from outsiders, troublemakers, and the racist, skinhead gang The Friends of Humanity, whether it's through fights, extortion, patrolling their turf or setting a few examples.

Even as the mutants deal with the Friends of Humanity and their ilk, tension begins to brew under the surface. Should the gang include humans in their ranks, as Mutant Town houses a sizable human population? For that matter should Mutant Town be for mutants only? Differences among the gang members, and its leaders, begin to divide the mutants that were once united. Can Charles, aka "X", and Erik, aka "Magneto", find common ground for the Brotherhood of Mutants?

They could run New York City. These are the gangs of NYX.

About Me:It was safe, an island of magic. It was a plan to try and make things better, to create a new home away from home for people who needed or deserved a new start. It was a safe place, where people could come and interact and know they would not be hurt, not be in danger. It was a dream given form, and a magic spliced together between two-not quite lovers.

Until he arrived. He tore the foundations and created something different, something darker, something stranger. Now evil walks the ways as often as good, conflict exists as much as peace, and nightmares lurk just as often as dreams.

It is safe no more, and as Fire and Water wage a closet war, I stand with magic and with hope... and reach out to bring new heroes, and new residents to the island, praying that one of them will be the one who brings a hope to set things right...

Present day Aiode Falls, Maine is home to many residents from all over the globe. And Universe. The little college town is growing, and becoming home to more and more people all the time. Some of them have no idea how they came to arrive, and some can never go home. As the University gets darker with new arrivals harboring less than happy intentions, so does the city. It is now home to metahumans, vampires, humans, demons, ghosts, aliens and even celestial beings. All of them with defined morals (or none, for that matter) and each with an allegiance. Those without a chosen allegiance are considered fair game, as both sides subconsciously prepare.


There is a constant battle for good and evil in this town, and only one side can prevail.

  On June 21st at 5:24 am, a group of heroes in opposition to the Super Human Registration Act breaks into a facility where a machine capable of transporting people to another dimension is being built. This device is key to the government's plan to build an impenetrable prison in another reality, where heroes refusing to register can be held safely. The rebellion succeeds in putting the machine out of commission, but unfortunately the uncontrolled destruction of the device leads to a tear in reality itself, displacing an as of yet unknown number of people- heroes, villains and civillians alike, ripping people from their own worlds and leaving them stranded, disorientated and confused, and even those apparently left untouched have been changed...

Wanted characters include: Batman, Superman, Wolverine, Hulk, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, and many, many more!

Oh Marvelous: A Marvel RPG
~*~“Evolution is not a force, but a process. Not a cause, but a law.” (John Morley)~*~

For years man has been evolving, quietly and subtly, on the periphery of human awareness. In recent years these evolutionary mutations have taken on more extravagant and dangerous forms, attracting the attention of homo-sapiens. The humans do not like what they see. To make matter worse, many of these mutants have turned to villainy, terrorizing the public and affirming the fear and hatred towards mutants harbored by human race. Reactionary measures have been taken, most notably in America and Great Britain, requiring mutants to register with the governments.

Mutant organizations, some for good and some for evil, have sprung up all over the planet. In response to the growing threat of super-powered villains, the American S.H.I.E.L.D. organization has taken the initiative to produce the first government sanctioned “super-hero” the Avengers. Meanwhile, despite mounting public distrust, philanthropist Charles Xavier continues his efforts towards peaceful mutant-human relations with his X-Men and his school for young mutants in Westchester, New York. At the Muir Island research facility a subsidiary of the X-Men team has been formed by geneticist Moira MacTaggert, calling itself Excalibur. In contrast to these “heroes” the mutant called Magneto, disillusioned with an intolerant majority, has built the island haven of Genosha and formed the “activist” Brotherhood of Mutants. More groups are formed all the time, from devious government factions to would-be champions. Many mutants choose no affiliation, fighting the system as lone rebels or staying hidden in the shadows. In this politically and socially precarious world, how will you choose to live your life?

~*~Accepting application, game to open in early July~*~

Like, Batman is an ex-cop or something who is like "lol taking the law into my own handz" and Spiderman...is well he's sort of the same. And like, the character powers aren't really there. YET. YEAH.
