Delivering a Storyline
Storylines are going to be a big part of the roleplay in which content is delivered to you, the role-player. This means that we want to constantly have a ongoing storyline in which your characters can constantly speculate on and feel like it's slowly progressing with you part of it. One of the major factors in storylines will be - we are NOT the X-Men. We are students that have no idea on how our powers work and seek guidance in powers and academic studies during our stay in the Xaviers School. Storylines will be delivered in daily scenes, some ranging from big scenes that will have a bigger impact on the storyline to little scenes that will have slow progression. All depending on the spare time of the people running the storyline.

World-building with structure
Storyline pacing is inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies (the ones done by Disney!) in which there will be small storylines (such as the independent movies; Iron Man, Captain America, Thor etc.) in which all will have their own threat and problem but will be rather small compared to the climax. The climax will be a bigger storyline (such as the Avengers movies in which the other movies build into) which will have far more impact on the students themselves and the future storylines. They will also probably feature a more established Marvel villain in which people will be familiar with (Dr Doom, Green Goblin etc.). The current idea is to deliver three storylines which will last a week to two weeks and then progress into bigger storylines. They might be shorter or longer, considering on the planned story.

Your place in a storyline
One of the hardest things to do in a storyline in roleplay is to make everyone feel special. Somebody is always going to feel like their character has been "left out" and that other members of the roleplay are being "favoured" due to relationships out of the roleplay etc. This is why storyline discussion threads will be getting set up alongside scene discussions after a scene occurs. This will be replacing a "complaints" thread and will allow users to comment what their pros and cons with a storyline scene was. They will also be able to comment on their character status and discuss if they believe their character was part of the storyline enough or not.
