IC - CLOSED SIGNUPS - Marvel's Academy Alliance
INTRO
Although back in the 1940s there were legendary names such as the All-American war hero Captain America, The Howling Commandos, the android Human Torch, and others. By the end of World War II things in the US and abroad seemingly slowed back down to a normal pace. Even the discovery of the X-Gene in the mid 70s was kept under wraps to the general public. Only becoming a frantic conspiracy theory that super-human people were in wait to destroy us and take over the world. A message still being played out by people such as J. Jonah Jameson on his program Reality Wars.
In the present day though things may be growing more hectic than people realize. The organization S.H.I.E.L.D., an acronym for Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division. Has been keeping up with developments and although efforts to suppress the more dangerous problems facing the world. The fact of the matter remains that with super-humans are on the rise. Both good in spirit, and those much more devious.
To that end, S.H.I.E.L.D. began conducting studies and in depth searches for the best and brightest young super-humans to recruit to counter any and all dangers lurking. Interestingly they found a small but concentrated group in an unlikely place.
Manhattan Academy, in the heart of New York City.
A prestigious private school, Manhattan Academy only accepts the best and brightest into its ranks. Although it does have a special lottery for those less fortunate around the city a chance to enroll. Unknown to just about everyone though, the academy had just recently been bought out by S.H.I.E.L.D. with a new dean put into place. Although the dean is named Robert Smith, some of the older staff at the academy have noted the man's striking resemblance to a certain legendary Super-Soldier of World War II.
The new school year is beginning, and things are about to get really interesting….
Rules
- This is meant to be a new alternate reality of the Marvel Universe (World - 5219). Where most of the known figures are still in high school age and attending classes. A group of them are attending Manhattan Academy, where S.H.I.E.L.D. and their new soon to be boss Steve Rogers. Plan on bringing them into a new program to help fight crime and super-powered issues.
- All characters are 9th through 12th grade, and although the point of the school is for those athletically or intellectually gifted. More normal students can make it in through a special entrance lottery the school conducts for first year students.
- Within reason (IE don't just turn say Wolverine into an actual wolverine or anything too insane), one of the main things about this RP is allowing remodeling of Marvel heroes and villains. Since a lot of them are going to have to be changed around to even be young enough to go to High School. You can mess with their backstory and personality, even their appearance.
- The GM does have final say on all modifications, as stated earlier, don't go too crazy.
- The only characters who are unselectable at the moment are Nick Fury, Phil Coulson (Both still running things at S.H.I.E.L.D.), Steve Rogers (The group's headmaster/Academy Dean). More will be added to this rule to accommodate villains or necessary NPCs.
- Even if the character canonically never had a secret disguise aspect to their character. For this one will be called for since they're suppose to remain appearing to be just everyday normal high schoolers outside of S.H.I.E.L.D.
- The Academy itself is located in the heart of Manhattan, and is a popular spot for celebrities or politicians to put their kids. Though students come in each day from all five boroughs.
