As I am creating my character, now. How the hell is he able to get involved with the institute, if i'm not allowed to use the non X-men parts of the Marvel universe? I mean, it's hard to come up with something that isn't just generic as all hell. I mean, if the larger universe is off the table, then I assume S.H.I.E.L.D. But, what about her surrogates like S.W.O.R.D. (Who's agents include a good number of X-Men, such as Beast and Shadowcat) and A.R.M.O.R. are also out of bounds? Also, is Magic also off the table?

Plus, the more I think about it the "X-Men only" thing is a very broad term? Because, how do you define "X-Men related" I mean if you go by "Started their life as X-men characters" then [url=http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/FPQAAOSw3YNXZXbQ/s-l1600.jpg]Wolverine is off the table, because he started his life as a Hulk villain[/url]. If you go with "Integral to the X-Men mythos" then You have to OK Rom The Spaceknight, because without him, Rogue would never have turned good and joined the X-men and gone on to save the world a couple of times.

It's also one of the reasons that we aren't getting a Captain Britain movie anytime soon. Marvel owns him, Fox owns everything surrounding him.

I am not trying to be awkward, it's just that with this "nothing not X-Men related" it is really difficult to say what is and is not. Can you give me a rough description as to what you classify to be X-Men or not?
