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.

If you haven't read them already, start off by reading the General Rules.

CHARACTER RULES

- OC mutants are also allowed but please put a bio so we know about their powers and stuff. Please try to be creative because it helps distinguish them from other characters. We love OCs, but we ask that after one OC, your next character be a canon. We are lacking in canons at the moment, so it would help a lot.

- No unbeatable mutants, god mutants, whatever you wanna call them. We don't want some super mutant coming and beating everyone up (unless it's part of some larger plot). This means, we do not approve 'Mary Sue's and 'Gary Stu's. If you have never heard these terms, these are generally characters who are extremely gifted or without weakness (for example if your character is incredibly attractive, smart and strong without any faults). No one is perfect, and having weaknesses/faults is what makes characters interesting.

- No clones please... unless it's absolutely needed. It makes things quite complicated. Same goes for alternate dimension versions of characters.

- You can have 2 characters. This rule mostly applies to those just starting out. Before applying for a third character, you must have at least 10 posts per character (the two that you already have). If you would like more characters than 3, it will mostly depend on whether the staff believes you can handle another character. All you have to do is contact me about it (I'm more than willing to let you have another in most cases. Don't be afraid to send me a PM ^_^).

- We ask that you use a separate account for each character so that we can avoid possible confusion. When registering on the board, sign up using the codename/pseudonym of your character (ie. Quicksilver). If they are a canon with no codename (ie. Jean Grey), use their full name. If you have created an OC character and haven't given them a codename, you may use their first name. However, if your character has a very common first name (ie. Sam, Katie, Tom, Jessica), we strongly encourage you to give your character a codename, since it clears up confusion between common names, but you are not required to have one. If you're having trouble coming up with one, you can ask other members for suggestions in the Characters section (we'll be glad to help).

- Characters from Marvel comics are allowed. Limiting the character choice to JUST evo characters doesn't really give enough choice, so comic characters are very welcome. Keep in mind, this RPG is still set in the Evo-verse, so you must be able to fit the character into the show. For younger characters, this means they would attend Bayville High like many of the other students. For older characters, this means they could be staff members at the Xavier Institute, but other teams (such as Brotherhood, Acolyte, Freelance, or SHIELD agents) are options as well.

Just to prove you have read these rules, please send a PM to the moderator Shay containing the following message.

Once you have read these rules, please continue to HERE.

If they change I will post in the 'About the rules' thread (or as an update in the Announcements). If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions regarding the rules, please post them in here.

*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.
