The time.... Present Day. The place... New York City. The grandest city of them all. It's one of those places that everyone knows about; a place where dreams are made and hopes are shattered. More than just a place for writers, artists, poets, actors, business men and women; it is a place where things are lurking in the shadows. A place where beings have always lived amongst the mortals. Beings you and I have heard about but never dreamed were real. That is until one day in the year (2008) it is discovered that creatures we once believed only to exist in stories, television, and movies are REAL. What creatures am I speaking of? Vampires and Shape Shifters of course. They are the creatures that haunt our dreams or that teenagers pretend to be every day of the week. Yes it's true. They're real, and they walk amongst us. In an effort to track down and secure the location of all such beings[Now known as Homo Sapien Sanguis and Homo Sapien Lupus respectively] they are forced to register with the government. There is an entire division of the government, known as the SBI[Supernatural Bureau of Investigation] that are charged with tracking down, registering, and electronically tagging this beings. Any Vampire or Shapeshifter found to not have such a tag is immediately detained, questioned [sometimes tortured really] and forced to be put on probation. This kind of treatment has caused such beings to force themselves into hiding. The best place to hide? In plain sight of course. Do to the clever thinking of a few powerful and older Vampires as well as Shape Shifters a small island in the heart of New York, known as Roosevelt Island has become a sanctuary for such beings. This small island has it's own police force, political structure and is completely self sufficient from the rest of city. For these reasons SBI Agents have a hard time getting onto the island at all. Venture off the island and your life is in your own hands. That ladies and gentlemen is the choice that lies before you. What choice will you make? Registered? Rogue? Hunter? Vampire? Shape Shifter? The choice is yours alone. |
In a world increasingly filled with abhorrence and intolerance, they are scientific oddities ... freaks of nature ... outcasts who are feared and reviled by those who cannot accept their differences. Their detractors include U.S. Senator Robert Kelly whose legislation is specifically calculated to "expose the dangers" of mutants. Despite society's pervasive ignorance thousands of mutants are surviving members of society.
Under the tutelage of Professor Charles Xavier, the world's most powerful telepath, these "gifted" students have learned to control and direct their respective powers for the greater good of mankind. They fight to guard a world that fears them.
The X-Men find themselves locked in a physical and philosophical battle with the Professor's former colleague and friend, Erik Lehnsherr a.k.a. Magneto. One of the world's most powerful mutants, Magneto has turned his back on society, believing that humans and mutants can never coexist, and that mutants are the rightful heirs to the future. He and his malevolence will stop at nothing to ensure that future, even if it threatens the very existence of mankind ... or mutant-kind.
Professor Xavier is now aggressively seeking mutants to join his school, with the assistance of Professors/X-Men: Jean Grey, Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, and Beast.
IMPORTANT NOTES: LOGAN HAS BEEN A TEACHER AT THE INSTITUTE FOR QUITE A WHILE. ROGUE HAS ALREADY BEEN CAPTURED, USED, AND RECOVERED FROM THE ELLIS ISLAND ORDEAL. ST.JOHN IS STILL A STUDENT AT THE SCHOOL. JEAN GREY IS STILL ALIVE, AND THE SCHOOL IS RECEIVING COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF MONEY FROM FROST ENTERPRISES RUN BY EMMA FROST.
We plan to open in 10 days, tentatively, of course. There are lots of mutants to be had! Come by and check us out!!!
