    Sometimes things fall apart...


    Mutants walk among us and have since time immemorial, though they have only been publicly acknowledged since the 1960s. Fifty years after the first pro-mutant demonstrations in the United States a great deal has changed. The country has not one but two schools dedicated to the training and education of people with powers. Their goals, however, are incredibly different. The government funded Shepard-Wyatt Institute has a long tradition of training mutants to work for the military while the secret sanctuary of Hewitt's School for Troubled Youth advocates choice. With the political climate in the country heating up once more on mutant rights issues can these two schools continue to peacefully coexist, or will it end in a showdown played out on the streets of the nation? Only one thing is certain: diverging paths and opinions can only lead to discourse or destruction.

    [info]diverging is a superpower-based PB game that welcomes diverse characters created by players ages 18 and up. Set in modern times in the United States, our aim is to explore the unique dynamics of a powered world between the students and staff of both the government-run Shepard-Wyatt Institute and the privately-owned Hewitt's School for Troubled Youth on an individual and collective level.

    ...so better things can fall together.

    PAX LETALE:
    GODS REAWAKENED


    Something is stirring in Newport Beach, California.

    One of the most affluent and exclusive areas in Orange County, Newport Beach is a safe, comfortable space where the real world has a tendency not to to intrude on the pleasures of its citizens. It's a nice, normal, friendly, monochromatic city in a county that's known for the same. In fact, many people say that the majority of Orange County seems like a construct designed to keep the troubles of real life out, creating a plasticine paradise that nothing dark or dirty can penetrate.

    The residents of Pax Letale are slowing coming to know better.

    Pax Letale is an exclusive luxury apartment building right on the beach, with easy access to the 405 and all the charm that Newport Beach has to offer. Its residents comprise a surprisingly eclectic demographic for Orange County and Newport in particular, with people from all walks of life being drawn to this building for reasons they can't quite identify.

    The common thread that binds them, of course, is that they are each of them inhabited by a sleeping god.

    As they spend more time at Pax, their gods are awakening, though -- and strange things are happening. Natural (and supernatural) mishaps and disasters, disappearing tenants, and quite recently, the concierge was brutally murdered.

    There are whispers among some that the strange island in the bay, visible from the building, has something to do with all of this. Still others are compelled by the island; if it didn't sound crazy, they'd say it was calling to them.

    They aren't crazy.

    Holds and applications are being accepted for all available pantheons.
