What I provide
Custom Virtual tabletop server (Foundry VTT) and discord server. I strive to deliver tightly prepared narration, encourage improvisation, roleplay, and character development/character arcs. Facilitating entertaining, and challenging fight scenes. Custom detailed maps, tokens, lighting, and battle map tools, special effects for power signatures, character effect animations. The adventure includes handouts of maps, key NPC dialog, news items, etc. The game server has background audio, including music and atmospheric foley. Players control individual volume to their taste.

How will character creation work
We will be making characters as part of session zero. If you'd prefer to make or select a published character, have it ready to add to the roster at session zero. Your character should be a young mutant whose powers have begun manifesting themselves in recent years. Characters are students at Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Origin of Mutant or Artificial Mutant. Rank is capped at 3. In addition to making characters, players will establish backstories, relationships, and world building. You'll be introduced to the mansion that houses the school and participate in a Danger room exercise.
