It is the key to our evolution. It has enabled us to evolve from a single-celled organism into the dominant species on the planet. This process is slow, normally taking thousands and thousands of years. But every few hundred millennia, evolution leaps forward� In the years following the destruction of the Alkali Lake facility and the tragic death of Jean Grey, the X-Men's lives seemed to be on a wild roller coaster ride. First a few months after her supposed death Jean returned,even more powerful then ever. It was an event that seemed to usher in a new era, as more mutants seemed to appear out of nowhere. Some were like the X-Men, fighting to defend those that were threatened by others. But as is most offten true where you have those that are good, you als have those that are evil. There was a rise in evil mutant activity which actually brought the Mutant Registration Act to the for front. It was only the strong activist movement led by Professor Charles F. Xavier that was able to put enough pressure to keep the act from being passed, however the secret of Charles' genetic history was revealed to the public as well as the truth that his School is a place taht takes in mutants and teaches them to use their powers.. Six years have passed since Alkali Lake, and the U.S. has become a more dangerous place for mutants. The GRSA, a governmental agency, registers them and enforces laws against violators with a specially trained unit. Charles Xavier has been recently assassinated, and the Mutant Rights Bill the Mutant Rights Bill is in limbo with the death of its greatest champion. The future of Mutant kind has reached a Crossroads, and the actions of a few will determine the fate of all. Now accepting applications for original characters as well as cannon characters.
