Check out the Infobox Every Once in a While
The staff is going to make a serious effort to update the infobox more often, so keep an eye out. Newer updates will always be closer to the top, but probably below this one.

New Stuff Around the Site
Aaaaand it's time for our revival, for the billionth time. Oh, how we are a stubborn board that refuses to die. The Cbox is looking prettier than ever with rules next to them now, and there will be more new stuff to come. Also, because of this, the Cbox rules will no longer be part of the General rules.

Canon Characters
There are plenty of canon characters still up for grabs, so head on over to the character list to see which ones are available. If you find a character that you're interested in playing, leave a post in the Character Request thread to get started. We're looking for new members, and everyone here is super friendly, so take a look around (guests can view almost all the forums here) and leave a comment in the Guestbook if you have any questions or want to introduce yourself.

Welcome to Speed demon's X-men Evo RPG.


This is a written RPG based off of X-men: Evolution. We're always looking for new characters, so check out the character list (under the Characters section) or PM the admin if you have questions. If you are interested in playing OC characters, please visit SD's OC X-men Board (accessed through the button in the top left corner of the site).

You're currently viewing our forum as a guest. This means you are limited to certain areas of the board and there are some features you can't use. If you'd like to join the RPG, you will be able to roleplay as you own characters.

Pietro's fists clenched at his father's use of the word "play thing". Shay was nothing like the other girls he had dated. Pietro bit his tongue to keep from saying anything in response.

"I haven't stepped down!" Pietro nearly shouted, managing to control his voice near the end. "Just because they listen to her, doesn't mean they don't equally listen to what I say. There's nothing dangerous about her, and I don't follow her like some little lovestruck puppy, if that's what you're getting at."

Pietro immediately bowed his head, realizing it was a bad idea to talk back so disrespectfully. He knew he was pushing the limits.

"She needs to be removed."

His head shot up again at the words. In his shock, the first thing to come out of his mouth was a startled "What?". Pietro quickly gathered his senses, giving a look that suggested he thought Magneto was insane.

"Why on earth would she need to be removed?! For the first time in... ever, she's managed to get things under control at the Boarding House, at least in terms of finance. And there haven't been any problems with anything!" Pietro protested.

"I have been watching for months, even behind your back, Pietro," Magneto stated. "And you have done nothing more than sit idly by while she runs the place."

Magneto turned his back on Pietro, his arms still folded as he walked a few paces. "You saw tonight how they will do anything for her. They follow her, they listen to her. If it came down to it, what is stopping them from turning against me? You do not see that as dangerous? Clearly your feelings for the girl are clouding your judgement."

After a few moments, Magneto finally turned back to Pietro. "You will do as I say, it is not up for debate." Magneto walked closer to Pietro, lowering his voice to a calmer, threatening tone. "Do you understand?

"I have been watching for months, even behind your back, Pietro," Magneto stated. "And you have done nothing more than sit idly by while she runs the place."

"Sit idly by?? Just because she's the one generating an income, doesn't mean she's the one leading the team. She probably doesn't even see herself that way!" Pietro glared at Magneto's back irritably as the man turned around and walked a few paces away.

"You saw tonight how they will do anything for her. They follow her, they listen to her. If it came down to it, what is stopping them from turning against me? You do not see that as dangerous? Clearly your feelings for the girl are clouding your judgement."

"My feelings for her are not--"

"You will do as I say, it is not up for debate." Magneto walked closer to Pietro, lowering his voice to a calmer, threatening tone. "Do you understand?

Pietro clamped his mouth shut. He had never refused his father when it came to a direct order. But this was about Shay. He had never cared for someone as he did for Shay. How could he let her go? How could he ask her to leave? Pietro took a breath.

"No, I don't understand. I'll do as you say, but I don't understand at all," Pietro spoke slowly and clearly, staring hard at his father. "Why don't you ask Adrian to do it?"

"Leading the team or not, she has still commanded more respect and done more than you have in a shorter time than you have since I appointed you leader," Magneto said.

At Pietro's mention of Adrian, Magneto flicked his eyes to the door, before looking back at Pietro. He considered revealing his whole plan to his son, but decided against it. It would be far too risky, and Pietro had already proven himself untrustworthy by not telling him about Shayna.

"Adrian failed tonight, obviously," Magneto said. "He took the wrong approach. But he will be useful. He will be there to pick up the pieces, after you break it off with her. Make her want to leave, Pietro. That is your job. Adrian will then have the opportunity to be the loving big brother he so desperately wants to be, and he will take her away from there."

And then she will be brought here, Magneto added in his mind. No, now was not the time to say that aloud. None of them could learn that he wanted to hold Shayna captive, to use her powers and influence for his own plans.

"That's what Adrian gets out of it. What do I get out of this whole thing? Nothing that I can see," Pietro said, trying to remain indifferent to the situation despite how he felt.

He was going to have to find some way out of this. There was no way he was going to make her want to leave. He'd never be able to live with himself afterwards if he did. Even if he lied and pretended like he did want her to leave, she would know something was up. She wouldn't fall for it, and she would end up figuring everything out.

"You get my forgiveness," Magneto said coldly. "Consider it punishment for all that you didn't tell me," he said.

He could see reluctance in Pietro's face, and it angered him. Would Pietro really dare to disobey his orders? Magneto turned to the computer terminal and began typing. "Do it Pietro," Magneto said without turning around. "Or I will summon Mastermind and he will wipe your memory of her, and implant false memories. You will see Shayna as nothing more than a pest, and you will have no memory of ever 'loving' her."

After a moment, Magneto added, "Or I could...wipe her memories, instead. Make it so she remembers nothing about you."

*Note: The Cbox now reads from top to bottom. CBOX RULES
- Please try not to spam. There is a 1000 character limit per message; make use of it. It's not MSN so don't leave one word messages if you can.
- Being respectful still applies in the cbox.
- Try to use the same name when you post a message, or at least one that members will be able to recognize you by.
- The cbox is OOC (out of character) so you don't have to still be in character.
- No advertising in the cbox. We have a section for that, so post advertisements where they belong.
