X-Men: The New Era

Okay everyone our Internet is FINALLY back up! Work has been more than brutal these past few days but the worst is over :). I'll have the IC started tomorrow late afternoon / evening so that we can get this show on the road. I think that I'm going to change my character drastically and post the changes before I start the game. Thanks for the patience guys I really look forward to seeing this thing take off :).

@Heathen Danny is a fantastic character and is definitely accepted!

X-Men: The New Era

@LPFan Sam is awesome! He's accepted :D.

X-Men: The New Era

@Heathen I remember you! You were in the last version of this RP. I think your character's name was Casper lol.

X-Men: The New Era

@Sombrero Totally accepted lol. You can post it under the character tab now :). With that I think that we have plenty to start with! Hopefully I can start the IC tomorrow at work as long as the Internet is back up by then.

X-Men: The New Era

@Divine Darkness Will do :D.

X-Men: The New Era

Okay so the blizzard here in Texas is about to hit full force so I probably won't get the IC up until tomorrow.

X-Men: The New Era

@knighthawk Brother as long as you limit him and don't play him too OP then you're accepted :D.

X-Men: The New Era

@Scarifar I like both characters! Normally I'd limit everyone to just one but since they are kind of a duo I think I'll allow it. So as far as I'm concerned they are accepted.

X-Men: The New Era

I added my main NPC student to the character tab

X-Men: The New Era

Nathan Maddox

Name: Nathaniel Maddox

Nicknames/Aliases: Nathan, Nate

X-Men Code Name: Siphon

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Physical Description: Tall but slightly lanky, Nathan is still quite the physical specimen; he isn't jacked or really even all that athletically built but at 6'6" and with naturally thicker bones than the average person he can come off as imposing if not a little standoffish just from his appearance alone. He normally wears hoodies or jackets because despite being hot natured he feels more "comfortable" in them, even though that's mostly a psychological thing. Preferably he wears loose fitting, dark colored jeans or cargo pants and all around prefers comfort over fashion.

Mutations: Nathan's X Gene gives him the ability to siphon energy out of anything that he touches. He can drain batteries and other electrical things, absorb nuclear radiation, consume flames, and even siphon the very "vitality" out of human beings. As far as he knows there isn't any way for him to project the energy that he siphons back out because the energy that he absorbs seems to simply disappear.

Personality: Nathan's a little...socially awkward. Before coming to the Institute he was a home-school only child being raised in an "interesting" family environment; so this will really be his first experience living outside of his childhood home with completely unknown people. It's going to be interesting to say the least. It's also worth noting that Nathan suffers from psychological issues and an intense anxiety disorder, but with the proper medication things can be kept under control.

Background: I think I'm going to explore revealing this solely in game and see how that plays out.

Recap of your mutations awakening: All I'm going to say for now is that it wasn't good...He's ashamed of what he is and honestly doesn't know how to handle everything right now. He's overwhelmed, scared, guilty, and feels like a danger to himself and to others. The rest I'll reveal in game :).

I have a lot more that I would normally add but I think that it will be cool to reveal things slowly over time through the actual RP.
