 W I L L O W B R O O K an original mutant rpg For decades, the government tortured mutants. They experimented on them, they killed them and dissected them. They kept them chained in Willowbrook State School, or "Willowbrook Asylum" as it was more accurately called by inhabitants of Staten Island. Yes - what all the residents of New York City thought was a well-meaning school for mentally handicapped children was really a house of torture. That was until 26 years ago when the mutants rebelled and took over Willowbrook. Some mutants chose to stay and form the Centurions, a group dedicated to training mutants and remaining hidden away from humans - and to just live their lives. Others, however, left and formed the Syndicate, deciding that they could never forgive humans and instead wanted to take control of them - to take over the world.

atommod opens September 1!
Sebastian Shaw succeeded in starting World War Three. Nuclear warheads had devastating effects on the world, pollution sky rocketed, cities crumbled and there were mass shortages of even the most bare essentials throughout every country.
The children of the Atom have risen up under President Shaw, who leads the country from his seat in Washington, D.C. and the mutants are the dominant species now, out numbering humans five to one. While camps have sprung up in the most major cities, with Shaw rounding humans up and using them for labor to rebuild the cities and civilization as second-class citizens, he has recruited mutants to his side with the promise of acceptance in a new world.
A group called the Xmen were formed to fight Shaw and are the only one's who have a chance to stand up to Shaw and to protect humans and mutants alike.
Which side will you choose?
Atom is set in 1964, in a post apocalypse setting following real time. The game is canon compliant up until the point where the X Men stopped the Soviets from crossing into Cuba's waters and has other Marvel themes in play.

Since the dawn of time, storytellers have enchanted audiences with their words. But there is an even rarer gift. There are those who, by reading out loud, can bring characters to life. Out of books and into our world. Most of these people prefer to keep their skills a secret but some do not even know this gift is theirs, until it is too late. You know how your story begins, do you know how it ends? Have you ever invested weeks, months, or perhaps years into character development only for a game to suddenly lose interest? For things to go awry and you choose to part ways? Are you sitting in a game that you've lost interest in simply because you don't wish to lose all that character development? If you answered yes to any of these questions then Spinning Compass is for you! We at Spinning Compass allow character development from any game. From Insane Journal? Approved! From Live Journal? Approved! From Dreamwidth? Approved! It doesn't matter what journal format they come from, your character will be approved! We also accept Original Characters, and any canon fandom characters.
