When Doctor Nathaniel Essex discovered humanity’s undergoing mutation in 1859, he foresaw the coming of Homo superior—a new breed of man gifted with strange and fantastic abilities simply by virtue of their cellular makeup. His obsession with the human genome he called the "Essex Factors" led to the dissecting, alteration and unorthodox means of experimentations on mutants and humans alike in his laboratory hidden beneath the boarding school he founded; The Essex Academy for the Gifted. Following a mysterious fire in 1930, the school closed its doors permanently. Present Day: 2010 The newly reopened Essex Academy in upstate New York is emerging as one of the most prestigious and expensive private high schools in the country; the academy attracts those with great minds and great bank accounts alike. The school’s headmaster has also handpicked several superhumans to reside at the school as both students and faculty. A fact so secret, that even these individuals are completely unaware that others like themselves are roaming the same halls. Why the school's headmaster is so interested in this phenomenon, and his motive for training them has yet to be determined. ------------------------ Essex Academy is a Marvel/DC crossover rpg where superhuman beings are just beginning to emerge. There are no super teams, and both superheroes and villains exist as little more than urban legends. This isn’t a game of horny teenagers with hot pbs left to run wild all over campus. The moderators have created several plots involving the government and public reactions to superhumans, as well as exploring the deeper mysteries of the academy itself.
