The Origin of The End.
"People are afraid of what they do not understand. An alien invasion in New York, a handsome God dropping to us from the heavens, a former icon of a war hero found as a popsicle and now walks among the living. These spectacles people fear, but yet so invite into their very fabric of reality. They embrace the machinations of man, if it be a miracle such as The Iron Man, or a bane of existence as The Ultron proved to this world. But, if it revolves around man, they at least understand the concept. But for the other ones. For us, who've lived and lived beyond the confounds of privacy and secrecy for so long... they don't understand us. Human evolution. There was a time the Inhumans were peaceful in privacy, until it all came to light. Now today, they are perceived as radical freaks of immediate and discriminatory threat to the same world who promised to keep it safe. That is why. EXACTLY why we remain in the shadows. We are them, they are us, the misunderstood, but if they knew our power...our brilliant gift. That we don't need genetic splicing for our gifts to activate, that we are the next pinnacle in human evolution. That we are independent from Terragenesis, the world would go up in arms against us, who only wish to be embraced as the Captain America's. We have the right to have a right. We are out there among you, yet we're so very lost. Who long to simply be freed.
...But I fear that will never be."

DISNEY HAS FINALIZED THE DEAL WITH FOX STUDIOS! NOT A DRILL!!! X-MEN, FANTASTIC 4, and DEADPOOL COMING TO THE MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE! I was wondering on how the X-Men would fit into the structure of the live action Marvel movies and shows...so I decided to want to run an RP with a nice and cool union of characters and some key storylines into the MCU! Infinity War was crucial, but there could be a plethora of stories and plots developed from the comics to be adapted to tie into the events of the MCU. And also with the basic premise of MCU using Inhumans as mutant substitutes, there could very well be a secret mutation from the inhuman genome that has evolutionary independency from Terrigen Mists (if you have no idea what I mean it's okay haha). The X-Gene is what makes the mutants of the marvel comics their unique selves. This playing into an already structured MCU would be interesting if people would want to do something like that!!! The Fox movies aren't that bad (Logan, OMG) but to see a change of tone and pace in an RP which we wouldn't be limited by things would be very fun! I'm 99% sure the Hellfire Club would be the first arc for this RP, that way it doesn't get too grand or cosmic in scale at first. I have so many ideas for this and I'm thinking I'll reference a clever way the comics sourced the origin of mutants into the RP. I was thinking the school for gifted youngsters has been around since the events of Avengers 1 but I need help fitting a good time frame to match the events of the MCU. I will be adapting X-Men and even some lesser marvel characters into this if this gets enough interest, so please feel free to voice interest! I already have a way to introduce the mutants without breaking MCU continuity.
*Besides, you know you need something to hold you over until Captain Marvel / Avengers 4!
Some Notes:
Ok that's it! Synopsis below! Hopefully this gets traction with some strong RPers who are dedicated long-term and believe in character and plot development over just purely having powers to be OP.
Plot:
In the era of the enhanced, alien, and altogether metanormal occurrences of everyday life, the planet Earth has seen the wonders of man and universe time and time again. It all started in 2012, the Battle of New York. Some would call it a catalyst for a world to come, some however... from behind the shadows knew that it was only one of many. That indeed New York was not the origin event that the world once thought it was. That in fact, the alienated have been around for much, much longer. Not just the alien, but the doctrine of the superhuman. Man, alien, and even gods among them have resided in the shadow of the public for times unknown. And now, the same civilization that's seen a rise in empires and fall of dynasty, will have to take on a new era of fate that the universe had once beckoned before. In a world of evolving technology, humanity, and now almost alien concepts... they remain. The Inhumans were the face of public representation in regards to the outside convention of mankind. The public hates what they do not understand, that if you're different... you're dangerous. Little did they know, the species of the deviant humanity had existed long before The Battle of New York and all the awareness it had brung. Humans were never alone, even from the beginning. And now, with the world seemingly on the brink of a new paradigm shift of history, it may just take the unknown to surface into the light in order to save everything. The mutated ones were coming. Because they were already here. And with the new rise of a clandestine and elite urban legend, they will have to risk everything before it all comes crashing down on the world.
A group of figures standing in the dark, all looking at a young girl in an isolated room. Her eyes closed as they dart back and forth in REM state. One voice emerges from the mysterious group.
"What has she seen..?"
They say nothing, only look to her through the two-way glass as the lights in an undisclosed area start to flicker. The room around them begins to tremble and sizzle out sparking electricity, yet the group seems composed and stoic. That was until, the mirror between them and the girl shattered into dust. They all alertly step back as the room begins to vibrate. The man who spoke remains solitary against the panic, as if he's waiting for something. Through the sheer force of the tremors and energy displacement all around, he never once took his eyes off of her. The lights effectively shut off and even in darkness, he stood firm awaiting... almost like a calling.
And then her eyes opened, bearing right into his, past them even. Right into his soul. A pair of glowing eyes in the dim vision.
Girl: "Xavier."
Honestly I don't need a lot of interest for this. I will gladly take a smaller group of committed, long term players than a bunch of interest that fizzles out! If you have any questions feel free to ask! I'm looking for avid characters who can enhance the story instead of just RPing for the sake of abilities. People who've RP'd with me know I'm all about an epic ass plot as much as the next gal, but it had to be cooperative and progressive together! Okay done rambling shoot your shot!

Some Notes:
- Magneto, Trask, Stryker, and Mr. Sinister will be unavailable to claim (for now) because of the plans I have for them in the RP. HOWEVER, Professor X is available and I'm actually encouraging someone to play him for this.
- Mystique & Rogue falls into the above category as well, BUT if someone really wanted to play them then just speak with me, I'd have to fill them in on the plan (hehehe).....
- Doubles aren't recommended at first simply due to how fast-paced I predict this RP to be, only doubling an NPC for the sake of staying connected to the School and Hellfire club.
- I'd prefer not to have any well known MCU characters like Peter Parker, Cap, Thor, etc in this at ALL. Maybe very indirect or secondary cameos AT BEST, in which you'd have to run it by me if it's okay to do so. Can't just have them mentioned/shown all willy-nilly. That being said fictional, original, or even SHIELD / HYDRA or EVEN B-List and below characters are welcome to be adapted for this RP.
- I would play a female mutant named Gigi Adler, with a good ol' Classic MCU twist.
- The villains won't persay be the MEMBERS of Hellfire Club, but rather the influence of it, some themes of Captain America Winter Soldier meetsSpiderman Homecoming is the best way to describe the tone of this RP.
