An aside: Originally I was going to do an all original RPG but I thought that would be a little close to the style of Elliot's RPG, so I thought I would do one based in an established universe instead.
X-Men: Apocalyptic Visions
Backstory: Apocalypse is back! Striking when the X-Men least expect it at Storm’s funeral Apocalypse has managed to capture all but a few X-Men. Now as the few X-Men that are left scramble against Apocalypse and his new horsemen: Sabretooth, Omega Red, Holocaust and the mysterious fourth member, you take control. Prepare for a story of epic proportions! On a side note this story takes place after Astonishing X-Men #6 and completely ignores “Avengers Disassembled” and “House of M”
Rules:
1. Each character will pick one X-Man EXCLUDING these potentially game breaking characters:
Professor X
Wolverine
Phoenix
Illyana Rasputin
Mikhail Rasputin (just due to the fact his powers were never clearly defined)
Cable
(more to be added as they arise)
2. Writing goes as follows-
Repeating what something has been said before, will be done in Blocks
eg- Repeating what something has been said before, will be done in Blocks
This is "SHOUTING" this is "talking" and this is "whispering"
A thought goes like this
3. When the X-Men go into battle we’ll follow the three action rule for example:
1. Bishop knocks down the door to the shack
2. Bishop slowly scans around to make sure the coast is clear
3. Bishop motions for the rest of the team to enter
The GM then decides which actions succeed and which fail. If you decide the results of your own character’s actions your X-Man may be injured or worse.
4. For now each member may have only one X-Man until everyone is comfortable with the game.
5. Most importantly if you want to join just PM me your name, and the name of the X-Man you want to play as. Please also submit an alternate in case your character is taken or is considered game breaking.A current player roster will always be in this thread.
6. Have Fun when we get more than two characters I’ll start a thread for the RPG.
