The setting? America. The date? June of 2008. The story? About to be unfurled.
Here in America, things have been getting edgy. Medical science is advancing at an alarming rate, as it technological science. Violence is running rampant. Teens are becoming the number one crime committers in the nation. Fantasies are hailed as the number one resource for escape from stress, thereby depleting reality’s existence in many Americans’ minds. Morality means hardly anything any more.
It is a perfect time for the impossible to happen.
A man with a certain odd behavior has been identified here in the United States. This is not some new psychological disorder (which seem to crop up every day); it is something totally different. The man has become a media hype. People have been known to refer to this person with this strange, unique behavior as “the X-Man” after the movies because of the symptom he possesses of magic-like abilities. But this is not some genetic mutation, as the talented medical force has come to find. No. It’s something else. The patient seemed to “find” these abilities, but was unable to remember how. It is a phenomenon, but many things are being kept secret from the public; what magic ability does he possess? What does he remember? What’s his real name? Where is he being kept? Where was he from? Is the government going to use this “X-Man” as a way out of Iraq?
As of now, he is the only one displaying these abilities... but here in the land of opportunity, anything can happen.
Well, here we go. This is the background you need to know in order to be in this thread. Please go ahead and introduce to me a character and what abilities (if you plan to give him/her one) he/she will possess. Remember, they can be anywhere in the United States; they will be gathered after they find their abilities.
I will be using Angelique; you can see a picture of her in my character sketches. If you are going to play in this thread, you have to come up with a reasonable way to have your character find his/her ability.
Go ahead and inform us all as to what is going to be done. I will create the thread when I am ready.
