xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxIntro

For decades, Marvel Comics has shown us vivid worlds of superheroes and villains, each with their own compelling backstories and characteristics that have spawned a vast following in our culture. Rather than re-creating these worlds, we hope to expand them, not only offering unique interpretations on current characters and organizations but also merging them with original arcs, characters, and powers of our own -- an all new Marvel alternate universe. Whether you're a die-hard fan, casual reader, or just an interested party, we open this role-play up to you.

Face front, true believers, and welcome to Marvel AU!

Timeline and Continuity
Though this is still within the context of the Marvel Universe, the time line has been altered to encourage a unique environment for every player. None of the major events of the Marvel comics have happened yet (House of M, Civil War, Legacy Virus, etc.) However, that is not to say that character-specific events haven't already taken place (ie: Bruce Banner being exposed to Gamma radiation, or the X-Gene being discovered, etc.) This is a fresh perspective and a chance for each of us to have a hand in shaping the growth and development of this universe. No matter which version of this world you're familiar with - movies, games, or comics - there is still a place for you in this world.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxArcs

Current Arc
Beginnings
Our current story opens in the present day, in New York City- a hub for heroes and villains alike. Beneath all the glitz and glamour of the bustling Big Apple lies unspeakable evil, malevolent plotting, and suspicious activity -- some super-sized, some mediocre. However, luckily for its citizens the city's shadows also hide hope and justice. Whether they swing through the skies, stalk the streets, or just spend their days trying to feel like everyone else, this is the place where our cast of sensational vigilantes and troublemakers make their debut.
