Just a suggestion, it should be where the mutants have been there in Genosha for a short time and have taken ''Sections'' of the city and are trying got gain full control. Just a thought.

Well for my chars I'm probably gonna stick with Bobby Drake, Sam Guthrie and add in Kenuichio Harada( Silver Samurai). 

Yea I think the concept brings out a new vision to the world of x-men. They should be divided, with some together of course, but mostly warring against each other.

Doing it by powers would be... prejudiced, would it not?
It would be segregation.
We're dealing with an island full of MUTANTS...

Anyways, the thing is that the ruler isn't decided...
Pdub suggested a gang war-esque thing...
Like, certain factions marking their territory and trying to gain control of Genosha to become its ruler, each with a certain leader that they're fighting for.

Nobody I've picked is really "leader material" (Rogue's a field leader, at best... Maybe Mystique, but Rogue would NEVER fight for her to gain control), so...

the prejudice factor only further shows that even within the mutant community some mutants believe they are better than others

Okay, there's going to be a big problem with the Marvel Universe RPG...

(Just skip to "SHORT VERSION", if you don't want to read through all of this. xD)

First of all, there are two kinds of Marvel superheroes:

There are the street-level heroes (Daredevil, Cloak and Dagger, Elektra, Punisher, etc.), who deal with more "realistic" threats, like gangs, mobsters, drug trafficking, assassinations, etc...
They're more grim 'n gritty... More "realistic", if you will.

And then there are the "super" heroes (Fantastic Four, Avengers, X-Men, etc.), who deal with the "bigger" threats, like Galactus, alien invasions, Magneto going on a rampage, etc.
They're more science fiction-y... More "unrealistic".

The problem is going to be that some people are going to want to have their street-level guys, and some people are going to want to have their superheroes.
And they don't mix.
You can SAY that they mix... You can TRY to mix them together (see New Avengers, people)... but it just doesn't FEEL right when you have the Punisher flying a space ship to get to the Skrulls' home planet and take out their queen, while fighting hordes of skrull warriors, wielding light-sabers and guns that shoot laser beams, does it?
Nor does it FEEL right if the Fantastic Four - for Layla Miller knows what reason - decides to stop Pusher Man and Bo from trafficking MGH, while Daredevil, Iron Fist, and Cloak and Dagger decide to go take on Galactus.
...
It's like how it didn't "feel" right to have the Runaways kids on the front line of my "Year of the Goblin" storyline.
Because they're street-level characters, and they should never participate in something so wildly ridiculous.
Nor should they ever turn the Hostel into a hotel (Someone should have shot me when I did that...), or been led by Jen and Clint in a team or whatever.
HUGE. MISTAKES.
My bad.
BIG TIME.
I took the characters out of their element while trying to keep them IN their element, and the result was a gelatenous mess of dullness and idiocy.

There are street-level heroes, and there are superheroes, and we can't have "one" storyline that works for both of them... (Well, Civil War is the exception, but we already did that.)
Normally, this is where I'd suggest we have two RPGs: street-level and... non-street-level.
But neither RPG would flourish very well... I'll bet my ass on that.
Now, here is where I'd suggest having either ONE kind of RPG or the OTHER... but that would leave some people unhappy if we only had "super" heroes (namely me) and some people unhappy if we only had street-level heroes (I won't name any names, but I have my suspect...s).

So we're going to have two "main" storylines going on at a time.
That's the only solution I have.
The "super" storyline CAN be Secret Invasion... but Sam, Darling, you'd have to tailor it in a way so it wouldn't be... as "big" as it was.
Like, we can't have Skrull armies arriving in Central Park with thousands upon thousands or Skrulls wreaking havoc throughout New York city and having every superhero ever fighting them off.
'Cause that would force the street-level characters to - y'know - fight off hordes of aliens... The Skrulls can be a problem tackled by characters like Sue, etcetera.

SHORT VERSION:
- Daredevil and the Fantastic Four don't mix because Daredevil is a street-level hero, and they're "super" heroes.
- Street-level heroes take on the more "realistic" things (assassination attempts, gang wars, drug trafficking, etc.), while "super" heroes take on the more "unrealistic" things (Galactus, Magneto, alien invasions, etc.)
- We need to have two storylines - one for the "super' heroes, and one for the street-level heroes. The "super" one CAN be Secret Invasion, BUT (take notice of the "but") it will have to be more small-scale, meaning we can't have Skrull armies of thousands of Skrulls invading Central Park and - essentially - demolishing New York City.

And, Sam, if you really want Emma in "Marvel Universe", I'm sure you can come up with a logical explanation for why she's not living in the sewers or something.

Guys, there's a reason that I made this thread.
No - seriously - there is.
I WANT US TO PLAN.
Which means we need to bounce ideas off of each other.
Which means that you guys have to post.
So we're all on the same page.
For once.
