That X-Men RPG thing...; ...again

So I'm kinda bored at the moment and in need to something to keep my mind from becoming totally numb and to keep my creative juices juicy, so I was thinking of bringing back the X-Men RPG. Wouldn't be exactly the same as the old one, I have a few scenarios in mind at the moment but before I get so far as to even skin a board I thought I'd do a little market research and see how many peeps from here would be interested. Who from the old gaurd would consider returning and who of those who never RPed there before would fancy having a go?

I was honestly thinking about ressurecting it the other day. I'd love to get my girlfriend into online RPing as much as she is DnD, and she's not into wrestling, but superheroes might be just her speed. So you'd have me, at the very least.

I'd be interested in the scenarios you have in mind. And you know of at least one X-character I love to RP.

Groovy. I'll try and write down a couple of the scenarios I came up. I did like the Magneto = good and Xavier = bad dynamic we had before though, we shall see.

I liked the fact we could make up our own histories of the characters. Helped people like me that aren't entirely familiar with the comic history to keep from getting lost and/or confused.

Definitely put me down for Rogue if this takes off. At least, Rogue. Probably more as it gets closer but definitely Rogue. Lol. *Rogue mark*

I was enjoying RPing Gambit near the end. And of course, the Juggernaut, bitch. Think it's time to let someone else try Nightcrawler and Deadpool, though. I bet Adam could cut Deadpool up!

EDIT: It'd also be best if we limited it to one team of good guys, one of bad for a LOOOONG time. I think that's part of what threw us in too many directions last time. Also, probably best to not start out with students. That's another thing that seemed to slow us down.

I agree with what Wight said about too many teams. There was just too many storylines going on. Too many people had numerous characters and then started dropping them, which left most of us scrambling around to rework things everytime a character was dropped.

I don't feel the students slowed anything down as they pretty much existed outside the rest of the teams but I would still agree with the idea of not doing students just yet.

Agreed. I think it works better that way. You can make the character your own and then really get into them without having to troll through decades of dodgy continuity to try and pin a back story together.

Agreed. There will definatly be one team of X-Men and one Brotherhood. Not the Brotherhood, and the House of X, and Wight's time travelling guys, and Toan's team made up entirely out of his own characters. Way too many teams with not much to do.

Again agreed. I think there will be smaller limit on how many characters one person can have. As tempting as it is to keep bumping up the number so we can play all those characters we want to it just means a handful of people end up playing the entire X-Universe. Then when one person goes on holiday, is sick or leaves outright a lot of people are left staring blankly at a screen.

I’m favoring the good guy Mag-neet-o vs. big bad Charlie X scenario at the moment, but then I just love evil Xavier.

Well after thinking about it, I really don't know who I'd play, I'm lost in the universe of bad Xavier, good Magneto, I never got into those comic's, solely Spider-Man ones.

I don't think bad Xavier and good Magneto comics exist, Elrick. If they do, then color me stunned. But we're creating a unique universe where we can create our own histories of any character we pick.

For example, I can pretty much give Rogue any power I want, if I wanted to do so. Why? Because in our original universe, Rogue could've drained the life from any mutant that I want.

Does that make more sense?

EDIT: But that does give me a question. Are we going to do the whole cross-wide Marvel thing again? Where any Marvel character can be with the X-Men or Brotherhood pending their history explaining it?

I think there was at least alternate reality in the Exiles series that featured an Evil Xavier, but not an entire series. But then, the Exiles just seemed to rush through rehashes of important X-Men and other Marvel related stuff, so meh.

I was thinking of joining the last incarnation of this as Dr. Doom. Would you still be accepting people from the wider Marvel Universe?

I got dibs on him already :P sorry mate. Just for the record, I'm placing dibs on Mimic too.

As for the wider universe thing, I think no to start with. The problem with taking someone like Dr. Doom right away is this; The X-Men are all in New York, the Brotherhood are all in New York and Doc Doom is sitting on his throne in Latveria, thousands of miles away. Sure he could invade New York, and that would be awesome cool, but as soon as he's been defeated he's back off home. Big time villains like that would probably be admin controlled so that they could used as needed and sent back home to plot and scheme when not.

As for other characters such as Spidey, The FF, Daredevil and the like I'm thinking not right away. Again this can lead to characters spread out and ending up on their own. Let's get the mutants set up first, there's already shed loads of characters to choose from in that pool, and if the thing takes off we can open the doors for the rest of the Marvel U in the future.

I believe that was their first mission. They were told to rescue mutant-kind's saviour and they obviously believed that to be Xavier, but it turned out he was being held because he was an evil psychopath. Mags was the one they should have been looking for.

For the reference I'm gonna edit into here people's reservations so far. Even if you've just expressed interest in a character I'll place it as reserved just so it's kept for you, just let me know if you change your mind.

Me
Cyclops
Mimic

Lita
Rogue
Mystique

Adam
Angel or Deadpool

Wighty
Gambit
Juggsy

Elrick
Sabretooth
Colossus

Mo
Wolverine

Kyle
Pyro

Dave
Rictor

Brandie
Nocturne

Daisuke
John Proudstar
James Proudstar

I'm thinking maybe a two or three character limit, and I'll either impliment a "no originals" rule to start with or insist on you have at least one cannon before you can have an original.

I'm gonna be away from my computer for the next two days and on Saturday so not gonna have much time this week to get things together. But hopefull we'll be up and running in a week or two.

Hopefully.
