Before these characters get posted, I wanted to mention that some changes have been made...
A) Iceman and Mystique are now up for grabs. (As well as Pyro, Angel, Juggernaut, Psylocke, Multiple Man, Meltdown, etc, etc.) Leigh has decided to drop Rogue and Mystique, as well as two of her originals; Matrix and Nightshade. I'm gonna snag Rogue, and hopefully we can shuffle around or get some new folks to pick up our X-Men. We need 5+ film canons now. Oi!
B) Polaris might be better off in the Hellfire Club - any thoughts? Twins, did you still wanna leave? Then Mystique could run the show her own way. Ideas?
C) In their character summaries, Mars and Zap were supposedly living at Xavier's and doing their old jobs. We've decided that they are still infected with the Upir Virus (their choice) and are living off the synthetic blood. They are living in a home of their own nearby and visit the mansion near-daily. A little independence goes a long way.
RULES UPDATE I added the following information to rule #8 on the rules page. ADDED 11/04/08 Thread limit! Please involve each of your characters at any given time in only two threads. This will help to keep overexposure down and will allow all characters equal time in the spotlight. Logs, journal entries, etc do not fall under this rule - only open, on-going threads. But try to spread your attention evenly over all of your characters.

A word from Rob: So, I was thinking a bit on the state of the world after our fast forward. What I would like to see is something kind of the fandoms of Firefly, Star Trek and Star Wars, in that the further you get from civilization (for our purposes, the cities and towns) the more likely it is that there is lawlessness - wilderness - uncertainty. There would be a feeling of unexplored territory, sort of like a semi-Old West. There are still rebel mutants, humans, vampires and Darkseekers in the nooks and crannies of the world, so people would stay closer to cities and try to keep in groups. If anyone has any input (eh?) or questions/comments, leave 'em. :D
