Okay, so I know I went absolutely X-Men bonkers last week, but I have been in a serious X-Men mood lately. Not only that, but I am returning from a hiatus (one that was not planned at that), and so every time I see something I like I wind up going completely insane. I promised myself I wouldn't get too involved when I first came back because I am in school for my associates, but not getting involved in everything or starting my own roleplay has been the hardest part of everything yet. Not just that, but with a new username I keep having to fight the desire to start a roleplay of my own.
So I'm not going to fight it anymore. I WANT to do an X-Men type of roleplay, but if that is indeed the route I go then I have a lot of planning that I need to do. I have always been a huge sucker for what I would call the "lesser known" characters, and for a while there I had a board of my own where I was going to be roleplaying as Northstar (with brief stints as twin sister Aurora as well). Things fell through with that, and that sucked, but I have wanted to go back down that path for a very, very long time. I want to do a sort of Academy shtick, something where their is maybe an assault, invasion, etc... Something. Like I said, I have a lot of planning I'll need to do. I have even considered an epic battle between rivaling academies, one good and one villainous. Ideally I would like for the characters to all be somewhat lesser known, but of course I wouldn't cause a stink if someone wanted to do one of the all-time favorites. It certainly couldn't hurt things, right?
All of this is a jumbled up mess of rambling, I know, but I figured if I am going to share it anywhere that I might as well do it here. ^^ Any input is much appreciated, good or bad, because I genuinely want this thread (if I do indeed make it) to survive without getting boring over time. I am open to a CO-GM, simply for the fact I have always been a big supporter of teamwork.
