Welcome to X-Men: Avalon, an online collaborative writing experience
"When An Individual Acquires Great Power, The Use Or Misuse Of That Power Is Everything."
~ Professor Charles Xavier
The year is 1992, and the world is trying to cope with the x-gene, a new step in human evolution, according to some. An abomination to nature according to others. Tensions have been on the rise for years, and it all seems to come to a head with groups of mutants across the world revealing themselves.
The Avalon Institute is an educational facility in Scotland financed by an anonymous source and under the leadership of Claire Cavendish the school aims to teach young and developing Mutants not only the regular high school curriculum required by the UK government but also covering the special challenges that the fledgling mutants have to deal with in their lives.
Join the brave and passionate faculty today and impact the minds and hearts of tomorrow!
X-Men: Avalon is based on the X-Men: Animated Series continuity, but all players are asked to create Original Characters for the purposes of the game. We avoid crossing paths with established characters to allow for our creativity to run rampant. Join us today and add your unique X-Person to the team.

As every now and then, Alastair sat in the cafeteria, during off hours. He had his acoustic guitar with him, and just sat idly strumming pleasant chords, softening almost into melody. It was background noise, mostly, for the few that frequented the space even at this hour of the day.…
