THE STORY WAS THIS
mutants are a thing, they have been for years. superheroes, supervillains, quirky little boarding schools dedicated to raising mutant kids in safety - these are all also things. unfortunately, the current President of the United States capitalised on a whole decade of highly volatile (and often violent) anti-mutant feeling with an unforgiving pro-human stance. his - and his private army's - view is that mutants are lesser creatures, abominations and barbarians, that are pretty much only good for being enslaved. WHAT A NICE GUY. President Marcus Crassus also happens to be the richest man in America and CEO of Romans, Inc, a giant multinational corporation with its own huge private army that just so happens to be the sole manufacturer of gross emotion-suppressing robot brain implants. YEAH.
now, America is a totalitarian dictatorship under the rule of President Crassus and his army. any free mutant who takes a stand against his rule faces being hunted down and arrested and experimented on or some shit until they agree to take the implant and join Crassus's side. as well as his army of run-of-the-mill normal human soldiers, any mutants who take the implant are assigned in to his own private hitsquad used to track down the renegade mutants still on the loose.
everything is grim and dark and for some reason cities are more like wastelands as Crassus ransacks his way through America on the search for renegade mutants. fullscale riots and clashes between Crassus's soldiers and rebellious mutants happen a lot! there are a bunch of abandoned buildings and cool burnt-out warehouses are everywhere. it's just really grim and dark, you guys.
AU of an AU
this is all loosely based on the What-If Wednesday from xi-rpg circa 2010. cr can be brought forward from the old version but this is essentially an au of that au so clean slates/do-evers are a thing. if you're a newcomer then don't sweat it - all you need to know is on this page. comment below with any questions!
SO WHO'S WHO?
comment below and stuff, go on
Nasir - rebel
Nasir, rebel (Molecule Acceleration)
★ Nasir had managed to keep his mutant powers a secret, even from his foster parents. After losing control, the rebels found him. He was reluctant to join at first but after the other effects of his abilities manifested (blowing one of Crassus’s men up), he joined the rebels. Since then he’s become devoted to the cause and Spartacus. He basically does whatever they ask him.
★ He doesn’t have fine control over his ability to explode things so he tends to use his speed powers instead, for fear of blowing up everyone in a 30 foot radius. He’s working on it.
★ He’s pretty trusted with the rebels, on account of saving Spartacus’s life once (they forgave him from getting a lot of punches in in rapid succession when they first met). But he doesn’t plan or give advice on anything. He’s just a follower and a very good one at that.
★ He really hates Caesar. He wants to punch his face in a lot and then blow him up for good measure.

Superproblem sex is the best.
"I don't want to hurt you."
"I don't want to blow you up."
"Yeah, we're gonna have some problems here."
Re: Nasir - rebel
GOD NASIR you already have your work cut out
and hm gannicus would probably need invulnerability too. mostly for all that booze. he'd need a super liver, at least.
Re: Nasir - rebel
See, Gannicus's super liver means that he gets tipsy but never drunk so he's constantly drinking to see if he can manage it just this once.
Re: Nasir - rebel
oh god that's gannicus's grimdark: all the internal torment with no way of getting drunk enough to forget about it for a while.
Re: Nasir - rebel
Even if Castus is super hot.Life is never fair for Gannicus.
Re: Nasir - rebel
crucifiedmicrochipped, because Agron has the WORST IDEAS.castus is super hot though not that agron would admit it
Re: Nasir - rebel
Castus is the hottest man on the show and no one can convince me otherwise. It's O.K. though, Nasir totally thinks Agron's hotter.
