/ / THE X-MEN ARE OPEN FOR EIGHT APPLICANTS !
please be sure to read the following guidelines before applying !
applications for new characters will be accepted according to the rules below. however, we ask that existing characters wishing to make the transition be of the EXPERT skill level in order to be approved. this is to avoid unrealistic skill level jumps in established characters (such as from intermediate to x-men).
expect the administrators to be particular with your power segments, as x-men are twice as likely to engage in battle with other roleplayers. we have to be absolutely sure that your written ability is not overpowered and/or godmodding.
by the same token, we have to use discretion about what character archetypes are allowed into the x-men.
needless to say, if your character is a sadistic psychopath (even to a lesser degree), they will not be eligible. likewise, if they are not willing to fight (be it for the protection missions they will be assigned, or for the lives of their comrades, etc), they will not be eligible.
for this reason, the administrators will be evaluating your history and personality segments as well to be sure that your character is a fit for a position among xavier's most trusted peers.
we ask that when writing your biographies, that your character not be new to the school, as it is unlikely that xavier would grant a new student immediate access into the ranks. the minimum requirement at this point is six months at the school in your history.
as stated previously, past candidates may apply for a position among the x-men (regardless of the conclusion of the interview). we ask, however, that your character adhere to the above rules. the administrators will be looking for signs that your character is a decent fit for the x-men, as these characters will become the backbone of the plot and are required to be strong and willing. conflicting views with xavier, at this point, will not fly.
lastly, x-men get their own rooms.
