About the adventure
There is a war coming. Mankind is coming for mutants. And at the cozy little upstate New York school called Xavier's blah blah blah, a bunch of mutants think they're going to be the new X-Men, trained by the former Magneto. The Hellfire Club couldn't care less. They've got their own school. If there's going to be a war, there's going to be profit. The Hellfire Club will not only survive, they'll thrive. Seems Emma Frost got a bug up her perfect round apple when Xavier "stole" Kitty Pryde from her, and she's been working on a school of her own. The Hellfire Club members all decided they wanted in on the action; a chance to train new mutants in their own ways. That's where you come in. Coerced, kidnapped, entice, bribed... however you got here, it's going to be difficult to leave... especially after several Hellions have already made their escapes. Training is tough, security is high, and you're always being watched. Will you become a hero, villain, or mercenary? Will you even make it out alive?

About me
40+ year Gamemaster with experience in many systems. I offer character-driven storylines, role-play, exploration, and tactical combat, along with lots of room for humor. If there's a system you want to learn, I'm patient, knowledgeable, and great at teaching you while still giving you control over your own decisions. Teaching people a new system is a great privilege I accept with humility and gratitude. I do my homework and help you understand things in a friendly and approachable manner. Experienced players find challenge and opportunities to be creative and fully immerse in the games I run without worry about me messing with rules without feedback or foreknowledge.
