Hello everyone. Me and a friend have recently decided to start an RP channel on IRC with a dedicated setting based (although somewhat loosely) on the mainstream Marvel Universe's X-Men.
We're currently looking for players who want to play either original characters or canons. The game is mostly freeform, but we have a character approval process to keep things somewhat balanced. The rules are pretty much the same as play-by-posts, only most of the RP is done in chat form instead of forum posts.
Anyways, if anyone's interested, we've just opened up for players. You can find our forums at
http://www.xavier.pw/forums/ and the chat channels where the RP happens are over at the DarkMyst IRC network (irc.darkmyst.org), under #Xavier-Institute and #Xaviers-OOC
We hope to hear from you there!
