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.

It was unusual that a place as vast as Avalon could feel suffocating.
Even the most adventurous of the students usually took a full year to scope out the majority of the castle's nooks and crannies and, even then, it seemed possible to graduate never quite having uncovered everything. Despite…

Sarah sat down at her desk with a heavy sigh. She wanted to bury her head in her arms on her desk, but instead she found herself leaning back, her arms stretched up so that her hands could cup the back of her head. She took a deep breath and…

A jaunty whistle sounded from the classroom as the teacher approached. It was very early in the morning, before all the students woke up, and one of the school's caretakers was doing her job; cleaning and dusting all the classrooms every night and morning before the hubbub of activity of…

"Hey," a rich baritone intoned, as its owner darkened the doorway to the art classroom. It was a moment after school hours, the last students had just left, leaving the art teacher alone, just gathering her stuff. "Mind if I borrow you for a little while? I've got something I…
