hello, hello ! itâs been a while since we last greeted our current and potential members, and i would like to rectify that. the exam and holiday seasons have been hitting us hard, activity-wise, and i would like to apologize for my sudden absence as well. i took a brief hiatus from both the main page and my characters ( if you know who they are â wink, wink ) to regather my vigor, and iâve regained it now, so iâm ready to make a return to both this page and the dashboard ! but, before further ado, i would like to ask the members for opinions !
i. â do you think the points system matters? or should we forgo this and make another system for the level advancement, such as through solo writings and other means?
ii. â how can we improve activities? do members want more laid-back prompts for the time being, or shall we start with the core events?
iii. â would you like to keep the out of character posts on dashboard, or shall we move it somewhere else?
we have quite an unused chatroom lying around somewhere that we can utilize, should members think itâs important to have a better connection with the others ooc-wise. this concern also arises because weâve perhaps been so busy and scattered, that the new members might find it hard to blend in and feel welcomed. please do let us know what you think, your opinions matter so much ! and lastly, how do you think we can improve?
I'm thinking of creating a staff member. What positions would you all like to see around?
hi, anon ! iâm leaving this for members to reply to, as always, but as for me iâd love to see more administrative members, maybe human resource managers, accountants, and what about others, more unconventional jobs? maybe like the school gardener and janitor too. every staff member counts, after all, and it would be amazing to add to the mixture !

KIM DOYEON from iteen girls with DAMAGE MANIPULATION.
are humans aware of mutants in this universe? if so, how are mutants perceived by them?
hello, anon ! humans are aware of mutants in this universe, yes, and how theyâre perceived highly varies among person to person. some regard them as a helping hand with x-men around, while some others do not believe that theyâre superior â some, to an extent, sometimes regard them with disgust, too. some also fear the fact that there are more and more mutants, but some positive reactions are also gathered from various perspectives. hope this answers !

TRIGGER WARNING. religion, illness, death,Â
â OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN ⌠â
jinyoung stares up at the priest who is praying over him. heâs too young to really understand whatâs going on. all he knows is that heâs sick and his parents are scared for his life. the priest continues his prayer over and over again. jinyoung doesnât feel any different. father kim gets sick with a curiously virulent strand of the cold the next day.
â ⌠HALLOWED BE THY NAME ⌠â
heâs not sick anymore but heâs always tired and he canât seem to gain back the weight that had before he got sick. âgod saved you,â his mother says running her fingers through his hair. jinyoung doesnât know about godâs hand in it but heâs glad that heâs not sick anymore. his mother pulls him close and nearly suffocates him in her arms. âgod saved you.â she repeats in his ear and doesnât let go until he verbally agrees with her.
â ⌠THY KINGDOM COME THY WILL BE DONE ⌠â
jinyoung knows his little brother jinhwan is sick before anyone else does. he knows what it is too: measles. no one believes him though. jinhwan was vaccinated against it after all, as was jinyoung. when his parents finally take his brother to the doctor they only confirm what jinyoung had been attempting to tell them for a long time. his mother looks at him differently then. âdonât go near jinhwanâ she tells him. thereâs not really any motherly concern in her tone. just iciness. jinyoung doesnât listen. his little brother dies a week later.
â ⌠FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES ⌠â
father kim is praying over him once again. itâs different this time. this time instead of simply praying for his survival heâs praying for the âdemonâ to leave his body. he seems to get more upset because jinyoung isnât reacting. he stops listening to what the priest is saying somewhere in the middle of the long ordeal. âgod saved youâ is what his mother had said. jinyoung is beginning to believe that god had no hand in his survival. eventually he goes home. he later learns that father kim developed what had seemed to be an anthrax infection and died despite having had no contact with it. jinyoungâs mother wonât look him in the eyes after that. she wonât speak to him unless necessary, she pretends that jinyoung doesnât exist the rest of the time.
â ⌠LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION ⌠â
jinyoung rarely goes outside anymore. his mother seems to think that if he even looks at someone heâll kill them. jinyoung isnât entirely sure about that. (if that were the truth wouldnât his mother be dead already?) he still sneaks out from time to time when he has the chance. his house is gray and cold and in the outside world heâs not treated like the monster he is. heâs sure about that at least, that his mother is right about him being a monster â a demon sent from hell. why else would he be surrounded by so much sickness and death? itâs on one of his rare trips outside that he eventually makes the acquaintance of a woman who says she knows someone who can help jinyoung with his problem.
â ⌠DELIVER US FROM EVIL, AMEN. â
even at xavierâs he is given a wide berth. people are scared of him still. even though he wears a face mask and gloves to keep himself from accidentally getting people sick. (even when he has enough control to begin curing people instead of making them sick there remain those who are scared of him). and yet this place is still where he feels the most at home. even demons have a place they belong to after all.
DISEASE MANIPULATION /Â
jinyoung has the ability to induce, manipulate, and even create all forms of disease (and by extension the organisms that cause disease including bacteria, viruses, bacteriophages, microorganisms and retroviruses) including their severity, method of infection and level of contagiousness.
INFECTIOUS BLAST / jinyoung can simultaneously sicken many people by releasing a type of infectious energy over an area of roughly fifty square feet.
DISEASE ACCELERATION / he has the ability to accelerate the speed at which a disease reproduces therefore taking a long and painful disease and making it last only a few days.
DISEASE SUPPRESSION/CURING / although itâs a very limited form of healing jinyoung can heal a disease or suppress the effects of it regardless of whether or not there is a medical cure/treatment for it.
DISEASE DETECTION / jinyoung can sense the presence of diseases and gain a detailed understanding about the disease, what itâs effects are and how it works.
DISEASE TRANSFERAL / he can transfer any disease between either himself and another person or two seperate people, allowing him to heal one subject and make another sick in their place.
DISEASE CREATION / by mixing and matching the symptoms and effects of existing diseases jinyoung has the ability to create entirely new diseases which are incurable by modern medicine.
WEAKNESSES /
jinyoung has no control over simple wounds or other injuries, his healing is limited to human diseases only. and the more aggressive the disease is the more energy it takes him to heal it. when he originally discovered the ability it ran into his ability to accelerate a disease, while he now has control over it if heâs not completely concentrated on the task at hand he does still run the risk of worsening the disease instead of suppressing or curing it.
in the case of simple already existing diseases modern medicine can easily heal them unless jinyoung chooses to tweak a few traits of the disease. and even in the case of his own self-created diseases or mutated diseases a mutant with a healing factor or the ability to heal others could easily cure the disease. and while jinyoungâs ability certainly can and has lead to deaths before he cannot totally control that outcome. while he can give someone an extremely aggressive fast-acting disease it all depends on the immune system of the individual, those with weaker immune systems will be more likely to die than someone with a strong immune system.
at this point in order to infect someone with a disease or transfer a disease from one person to either himself or another individual jinyoung absolutely needs skin-to-skin contact. after that the disease (if infectious) and the way it spreads is completely out of his control.
the way that jinyoungâs ability works requires him to become an incubator for disease in order to spread it to someone else, this means that jinyoung is almost constantly sick with some ill-defined disease that is always changing in its symptoms. he can for the most part suppress his own symptoms and prevent himself from being infectious, however, his constant state of illness means that he is physically extremely fragile and prone to exhaustion. it also makes him wildly unfit for hand-to-hand combat situations.
introducing  ⤠KIM MINJI ⢠, a  ⤠TWENTY-TWO ⢠ year old mutant who is also known as  ⤠KHAOS ⢠. living in the  ⤠THETA #402 ⢠ with affiliations to the xavierâs school of the gifted youngsters, the  ⤠STUDENT CLASS C ⢠ is bestowed with the power of  ⤠CHAOS MAGIC ⢠. welcome to xavierâs.
TRIGGER WARNING. sickness, emotional outbursts.
Minjiâs powers showed when she was still rather young - only 6 years old. It was as though both luck and misfortune followed her only in extremes. One day, she would wish, wish, wish, for the car to have broken - so she couldnât go to Kindergarten. On another day, when she was extremely sad, she almost fell off a bridge.
Not only was it confusing for the little girl, but also for her parents. They constantly feared something really bad could happen to their beloved daughter, since everything bad that happened was very dangerous. Their worry went so far, that they wanted to homeschool her.
But little Minji didnât want that - and her parents also knew that weird things happened, when they argued with her. They knew she had to learn boundaries and that she couldnât have everything her way. But how should they tell their little girl âNo!â when in response a window burst, or the lamp above their heads blew?
Even if they only wanted to protect her.
As she grew older, the situations got more and more dangerous - they feared the day her hormones would start to go haywire because of puberty.
Meanwhile, Minji experienced headaches more frequently as she aged. Whenever she got emotional - and her powers were unconsciously used - she started to feel sick, both physically and mentally and it felt like her head would explode. The negative emotions from those headaches in response made her unconsciously use her powers again and so - at some point when she turned 10 - she was bedridden.
With time her parents had realised that she couldnât be a normal human being - something about her wasnât right - or so they thought. And they realised that they couldnât raise her - even if they dearly wanted to - they didnât know what the hell was going on and so they decided to try and find a way to get her to live with other mutants and - if possible - learn to control whatever it was that was causing her to regularly destroy her surroundings.
A few month and a couple more emotional outbreaks later, she arrived at the school.
Now many years have passed and Minji couldnât have changed more than she did.
Her powers seemed well under control, as long a she didnât use them. She learned to control herself to an extent where randomly exploding - or rather letting things explode - was barely an issue anymore and the girl seemed genuinely happy.
But was she really?
Strengths
Chaos Manipulation: Theoretically Minji could be able to change the probability of something to happen, in any given situation. No matter how likely it is for something to happen, she could change this, but so far she has only been able to do this unconsciously (when she had very strong emotions about something, in casual situations. For example if sheâd see a cat and would want to pet it, it would come to her, even if that would be unusual for the cat/the cat usually would continue its way in the opposite direction upon seeing someone). Of course this also works the other way around, when she has strong negative feelings and everything suddenly just seems to go wrong. Actively trying to use it has only caused her to faint so far. Instead of trying to change situations for the better, sheâs trying to concentrate on learning how to avoid changing probability for the worse.
Chaos Empowerment: Minji becomes stronger/faster/more durable through chaos or when surrounded by chaos. This means for example that in a chaotic fight, she would become stronger. This also includes that the usual side effects (see weaknesses) Minji experiences are weakened. Hence, she would be able to fight longer before fainting. Again, she isnât yet able to use this fully. This means that she can keep her cool better in chaotic situations (like having to study for multiple tests while having more other tasks to get done and sheâs able to concentrate well under the pressure). Sheâs also trained to the point where this enhances her hand to hand combat abilities a little.
Form Manipulation: Minji can change the shape/form of (so far only up to medium-sized) inorganic objects, e.g. re-form a stone into a knife
Disintegration: Minji can also cause inorganic material (also only up to medium-sized objects so far) to lose cohesion, e.g. a stone falls to dust
Martial arts: since her magic isnât trustable, she had to learn something else to fight with and she is really good. In fights, her chaos empowerment enhances her strength/speed/durability to a superhuman level. So far this is still not on the level of other mutantâs superhuman strength, though the more turmoil she feels, the stronger she gets. Sheâs specialised in kung fu and tai chi.
Weaknesses
Headaches: when using her powers, she gets severe headaches - the more powerful the magic, the worse the headache. Her chaos empowerment is something that would only give her light headaches, especially when used unconsciously. Disintegration and Form Manipulation cause a lot stronger headaches, though the smaller the object, the lesser the headache. Big objects, like a wall would cause her to break down, possibly faint.
Nausea: ranges depending on the amount of power used, from light dizziness to fainting. This is most probable to happen, when sheâs using chaos manipulation and similar to the likeliness of headaches. While chaos empowerment would make her feel dizzy, chaos manipulation would make her faint.
Concentration: generally gets distracted easily; next to random thoughts, emotions are very distracting. Getting headaches from using her magic, also disturbs her ability to concentrate. But without concentrating, she canât use her magic properly.
Instability/Fear: the more emotional she is, the less control she has on her powers. Hence she fears her powers, which makes other weaknesses (like concentration problems) stronger.
Strength: Minji needs to be both physically and mentally strong to not be destroyed by her own magic, which she (mainly mentally) isnât yet. This is because of her ability to change the probability of things to happen (or not to happen). The fear of destroying everything in an emotional outburst or something like that, weakens her mental strength, which in turn makes it harder for her to use her powers.
Limited: because of all the other weaknesses, her magic is not the most usable, hence she usually appears as weak and unneeded in battles. Furthermore, as sheâs scared of what she could do, she doesnât like to fight other people either, even for training
