Matriculated: An X-Men: Evolution Fic
Setting: One or two days after "Day of Reckoning", in another part of the USA.
Basic Plot: Several mutant kids escape from a military research facility during the ensuing chaos and return to their homes, seeking comfort and refuge from the many hardships they suffered during their imprisonment. What they find, however, will forever change their lives.
This chapter and the next will be for the OC application and announcement. You know the drill - fill out the form, leave the review/send an email and check back in a week or so. Here are a few guidelines:
*****Character Creation*****
Age group - I really don't have any age group bracket/requirement, just make sure that you character's physiological and mental characteristics/traits are appropriate for their age. For example, if your character is, say 5 or 6, it's probably impossible for their mutant abilities to manifest themselves naturally, since mutant powers supposedly manifest themselves at the onset of puberty. There's a loophole to this - since the mutants were imprisoned in a scientific/military facility, you can say that your character's powers were forced out.
Powers - Please refrain from giving your characters the exact same "main" powers that have already been given to XME characters (ex. Shadowcat's phasing ability). If you'd like, you can use these powers as some sort of "side powers" or secondary powers, meaning that they can have the same abilities but with different limitations (ex. OC with Rogue's power can use only one absorbed power at a time). You can do combinations if you feel like it, but the "different limitations" clause stays in effect.
Residency - What I'm aiming for is the perspective from another part of the country/world - different states or countries may not necessarily have the exact same reaction to mutants as to Bayville's. You can still do Bayville, but be creative.
Familial relationships - No immediate relatives, please (brothers/sisters). Nieces, second cousins, distant relatives, aunts/uncles, etc. are allowed, but be creative.
"Reusing" of Characters - If you've done this sort of thing before, and your character was accepted, don't reuse them.
Alliances - This won't be coming for a while, as the characters may meet the X-Men/Brotherhood/Acolytes in the middle/near-end of the story.
*****Miscellany*****
This will not be an interactive story. Human characters are welcome (though I doubt any of you would settle for just a normal human.. ^^;) Though it'll be more of an introspective story, there WILL be fights. ^_^ Be as descriptive as possible about your character. I like details. ^_^ You can also email me: istprimer@yahoo.com NO FLOODING PLEASE. ;___________________; Leave your email so I can contact you.
