Description:

There have always been people with special abilities. Sometimes called
wizards or magi, yogi or saints, heroes, monsters and demigods they were
with us since the dawn of time.

Shortly before the First World War, they began to appear in ever
increasing numbers. Today Mutants as they are known, are found in every
country of the world.

In some places they are admired as heroes or worshiped as gods while
elsewhere they are reviled as freaks or monsters.

In the United States tensions are rising and many young Mutants face
discrimination and bigotry.

The Evergreen Academy in Seattle is a school for Mutant children.
Evergreen is a place where they can learn to control their powers and a
refuge from an increasingly cold and hostile world.

Where will you fit in?

The game is freeform except where combat is involved and character sheets.
The Powergame system is then used. I am looking for players that are
interested in the interaction between characters and exploring a new
world.

The feel of the game will be a mix of the 'X-Men' movies, our old friend
'Smallville' and the 'Wildcards' series of books.
