Marvel Revolution takes place in the Marvel Universe is heavily based on the 616-Universe. Civil War and House of M have not happened in our game as we know aping Original Characters is popular and we feel that including these events would prove difficult for OC Mutants. You can app any character whether dead or alive, although if the FC you desire is dead, you must give a good reason in the app as to how they escaped their fatal status or even ending their background right before their death. If you are applying for an existing Marvel Character (FC, Featured Character) and their background involves an FC already on the game, please discuss with the player before applying for your idea. The game is not a Marvel Year One game, so when applying for an FC please include some of the character's canonical history.
To give a better idea of where we are in the timeline and what has been happening recently, as well as what character should/could know about, especially if they've lived in the city for a while:
October 2006: The Hope cure has been created, and is possibly either available to or in the hands of the FoH, the government, and other agencies. The major production centers and creators of the mutant 'cure' have been destroyed, but there are remnants of their work that still may prove a threat to the mutant population. 'Antidotes' to this cure do now exist, one of them having been created by Beast of the X-men.
October 2007: New York City has been invaded by an alien race, alien in the sense that they aren't known. No one has been able to publicly confirm just where they came from. Check out for IC news regarding this plot here at Insane Journal for the majority of the GM'd scenes for this plot.
