The X-men run missions and work together with the NYPD, striving to maintain a peaceful balance between humans and mutants. When it comes to a fight, they won't back down from protecting those who need their help.
Haven presents itself as a humanitarian organization for activists, leaders, and high society, yet mutants are the secret leaders working to protect and serve their kind. Behind the scenes they bring their goals into reality.
From the time when mutants became known to the world, SUPER was founded as a black-ops division of the CIA in an attempt to classify, observe, and learn more about this new and rising threat.
The Syndicate works to help bring mutantkind to the forefront of the world. They work from the shadows, a beacon of hope for mutants, but a bane to mankind. With their guiding hand, humanity will finally find extinction.
Since the existence of mutants was first revealed in the nineties, the world has become a changed place. Whether they're genetic misfits or the next stage in humanity's evolution, there's no denying their growing numbers, especially in hubs like New York City. The NYPD has a division devoted to mutant related crimes. Super-powered vigilantes help to maintain the peace. Those who style themselves as Homo Superior work to tear society apart for rebuilding in their own image.

Well my gf is joining soon and me and her came up with her power, I was hoping to get some feedback on it though so she didn't have to write an app up for a power that would get rejected, tell me what you guy's think ^-^
Mutations
Mutation description: Her body generates a type of pixie matter that she shifts and molds in her stomach to create the creatures. Released through her skin they communicate with her through telepathy, but they don't really think more so take commands like an animal. Depending on how much of the mass she uses and how she uses it she can create 1 large pixie *around 5 foot 5 inches* to hundreds of teeny tiny pixies. Each pixie looks about the same in appearance and has claws, fanged teeth and wings appropriate to their size as well as the ability to self destruct on her command. The explosion size depends on the pixies size but the general rule of thumb is a radius of twice their body length upwards. Meaning that if she were to use all of her mass to create a 5'5 pixie and it exploded it would be an explosion of 11 feet in radius.
Strengths: Allows her to avoid combat herself if needed as well as fight well at range
Weaknesses: She only has so much pixie mass at a time, it takes 1 hour for it to regenerate in her body. This means that if she were to create 1 full sized pixie and it got destroyed or self destructed then she wouldn't be able to create anymore for an hour. The pixies themselves don't have much of a mind of their own and can only follow the commands that she gives them through telepathy, meaning if she is unconscious or unable to concentrate enough to give them commands their useless. She is not immune to the explosion created by her pixies meaning if she gets caught in it then she would take whatever effect anyone else would take.

This is an interesting power. Might be a bit weird to have something 5"5 come out of your skin, but still sounds like fun. She would have to be quite creative with the power, but I can see how it would work.
I don't think the moderators would have a reason to refuse this character's power, but just to ask, what is the max number of Pixies she can make, assuming they are all really small?

lol yah they come out head first flying and the number would depend on her stats but I think at beginning level they would probably be 1/2 inch tall and *goes to do math* well by pure height it would be 130 however that doesn't account for the width it takes to create the 5'5 one only the height. So I think to compensate for the pixie mass that goes into width it would probably be around 400 or 500
The pixy creation and means thereof are unique to our site thus far. You'd have to get permission on the exploding cute things from Luna, I'd probably say.
Beyond that, we'd need to see the application actually in the MutantRevovler@yahoo.com account. The Suggestions board isn't entirely the place for this, since we try to keep applications-in-progress confidential between the Mods and the new player in question.
