A wall exploded, taking one of the guards of the internment camp with it and starting a firefight with the others. A minute later, after flashes of energy, various powers, and many bullets were exchanged the smoke and dust cleared and the mutants who were being kept there were gathered in the central courtyard, their power-suppressing collars removed as they entered the area. A man in what appeared to be technologically enhance body armor stepped onto the porch of one of the guard buildings.
"Greetings, my fellow Mutants." he said, his voice amplified by a Speaker collar around his neck. "I am Corona. I have come to liberate you from your captivity. Maybe you've heard of me, maybe you haven't, but I'm sure you've heard stories of my parents, Cyclops and Jean Grey." True, they weren't his real parents, he was merely raised by them from the age of eight, years after his father died, but if he told them that his real parents were Cyclop's brother and some random normie, the story wouldn't have near the impact he was hoping for. "They lived in a much better time, one in which most normies at least tolerated mutants. My parents thought they they could learn to accept us, at least as equals, despite our superiority. They were wrong. Instead, the Normies hunted us down and threw us in camps. They made us the enemy, because they require fear. They feed on it to keep their society together. WE DO NOT. We live on hope, and on our own strength, learning to harness our will to feed our abilities. That is why they fear us. Those who wish to live as sheep, with their politicians as shepherds, will always fear the wild animals who live in freedom."
"I now offer you a choice. You can either come with us, and help free our mutant brothers and sisters from tyrants who would enslave them for merely existing, or you can leave, and try and make your way in a world run by those that hate and fear you. The choice is yours."
With that he flipped a switch on the side of the speaker collar and went to talk to his soldiers, who were now gathering up everything of value in the camp to either keep or give to those who wished to leave, so that they would at least have a chance.
I've seen a lot of Xmen stories centered around us being the Xmen or a future version of them. I've never seen one where we were a future version of the Brotherhood, though, so I thought I'd start one. That way we can be actual Mutant Terrorists instead of just being labeled as such.
I want at least one Co-GM, as I'm running two other RPs now. This will take place in a world similar to that of the show "The Gifted", where it technically isn't illegal to be a mutant, but if you commit even the smallest crime, accident or not, they will treat you like a hardened criminal and a terrorist. In this world Sentinel Services rounds up "terrorists" and puts them in prison camps, not caring who they are or how old they are.
You can play as a prisoner or a member of the assault team. I would like to have a teleporter to get us in and out, but that isn't necessary if no one wants to play one. I can easily give Blink a child that works for us if I need one for some reason.
