Spring Eternal (Marvelverse RP - Pt. 2)

An extension of Winter Risen's lore:
== Things To Know Before Reading Further: ==
* Before reading further, familiarize with the lore of Winter Risen, please.
* QUICK DESCRIPTION OF THE PRESENT DAY/NEAR PAST IN THIS AU: Jean Grey is currently deceased; the Phoenix Force has no avatar at the moment, and is searching for one; Magneto still runs the Brotherhood (mutant-run organization that seeks to dominate the rest of humanity) and rules over Genosha as dictator - where he also has a school of mutants that he trains to join the Brotherhood; the Hellfire Club is defunct since the death of their former leader, Emma Frost (aka; the White Queen) and there is a current power struggle in the mutant nation of Krakoa, as Emma is no longer dictator; there's a strain of the Legacy Virus (known as 'Legacy-4') which affects only mutants, acts as an extremely fast-paced cancer, and there is indeed a vaccine for it which gives the patient a 80% chance of survival if they contract the virus; the Scarlet Witch wiped out most of the mutant population many years ago, and it remains at an all-time low - even more so after the Hellfire's last stand against the Next-Men; the mutants Hope and Cable have long since left to the future and remain there for the time being; Xavier's school is preparing for reopening..... (***see plot section below***)
* Cold War II: aka the 'Colder War' - this was a period of geopolitical tension starting from the Legacy-4 pandemic (December 2019 - July 2022) (including the Legacy Battle of 2020 - X-Men vs Hellfire Club) to the end of the Vietnam War II (February 2031 - April 2037) and the Stock Market Crash of 2038. It started as a result of anti-mutant protesting in Europe, and ended with a war escalating from a pro-mutant demonstration gone wrong in South Vietnam. Mutants, their population steadily declining, are still a target of racial bigotry today. It is widely thought that the rising new terrorist group calling themselves the 'Purifiers' are responsible for gunning down the mutant supporters in Vietnam that fateful day. In the Stock Market Crash of 2038, a mysterious figure bought out a third of Furtasy's stocks. American President Kanye South, the grandson of Kanye West, was reelected for his role in restoring the peace.
* 2040s Canon: Nikocado Avocado passed away on 2041 January 21; his final video, titled "ONE LAST MUKBANG TO RULE THEM ALL" dominated the top spot in trending on YouTube for weeks. Pooper Scooper 5D is the new Fortnite. Michael Jackson sound effects and dance moves are once again the new trend in TikTok videos. A new fad among teens is to greet eachother by bumping elbows and shouting "couscous rubber goose". A new slang term, "spovwoved", means "approved with much excitement". Veganism is now an official religion, where members worship the plant god, "The Teacher Of All". The band behind songs trending today is 'Area 55'. There's a very experimental new thing that's an actual hoverboard that is very hard to get and very expensive and just like today's hoverboards it is at risk of exploding and is a meme. One Piece is still ongoing, and Ash Ketchum is still 10 years old. Half life 3 is rumoured to be made sometime soon in the 2040s. Yandere Dev has still not finished yandere simulator. There’s a new Trevor Henderson cryptid on the block by the name of “Mr. Goose”. In the year 2036, a rich entrepreneur made his own Playboy-style company, but focused on seccsy mutant wahmen... pinups of real furries are now a thing, as most of the models are animal-power mutants. Being rich, seccsy, and famous, both Wanda and Emma may or may not possibly have taken up offers from that company to pose for the cameras. This company is known as Furtasy; motto is "Mutant MILFs, Mommas and More" - every last day of the month, they release the limited edition magazine "Spank Tank Special". Furtasy is coming out with a new hologram expansion for their stuff planned for late 2040. Touchscreen cellphones are still a thing, but most computers of 2040 have a hologram keyboard that's projected onto a desk/lap/other surface; instead of an actual keyboard, typing is done by tapping the surface the hologram rests on. Since mutants are such well-known and popular beings, all supernatural anime has stopped production and it's almost impossible to find supernatural anime on any streaming services anymore. Certain anime like MHA and OPM are banned because of supposedly "pro mutant themes". The Avatar franchise is officially considered anime AND contraband due to its themes of an empowered race coexisting with a non-powered race. Among us 3 is out as a first person shooter. Among us 2 was just normal among us with a new title. The Nintendo Switch is actually still in production with a demo for a Metroid sequel as well as two Smash sequels. Disney owns its own sizeable country that can be visited; it's literally just one massive theme park, but the Marvel exhibits are replaced with MORE Star Wars. There is another Undertale sequel: Nudealter, also FNAF’s 50th game is out. Deltarune is finally finished. They've made the 2000th star wars movie but still haven't made a single old republic movie. Jojo part 8 has been animated, and part 20 is being written along with a popular spin-off called "Desert Blood" (People argue that Arc 3: Shifting Sands is the best arc because of Dave and Tomie's relationship. People still rage over the trouble in mexico part not being finished after twenty years. Viator is a fan favourite character. TWOSAS gets the worst rap for basically making a "new Tomie and Dave" with Jaydn and Jack, but the fandom ADORES Oscar). There is a hot new movie series called “Lands of Steampower” about the adventures of various quirky steampunk characters. Fifa 2040 is still the exact same recycled game that they've been releasing forever. There is also the recent Kamen rider season that just started called “Kamen Rider Ginn”. There's a new TikTok craze, where teens make memes about the Colder War, and add in a British impression of the line, "eh it’s bit nippy outside, innit" - this makes the aging zoomers flip their lids. Elder Scrolls VII still hasn't been released. The Crimson Hoax anime is slated to start production.

== Plot: ==
(*note: any canon characters appearing in this AU are roughly around 21 years older than their canon counterparts - so for example, Jubilation Lee is currently 34 (being 13 in 2020, and 33 in 2040) - and NO, COVID-19 does not happen here... instead it is replaced by 'Legacy-4')
(*note: this still takes place on Earth-326)
After Emma Frost's death at the hands of James, the members of the Hellfire Club scattered to the far corners of the globe. Between them and the other rivals of the HF Club, there began a power struggle for control over the money, possessions, and territories once under Emma's control. No longer under the dictatorship of the White Queen, the mutant nation of Krakoa has been thrown into a state of turmoil as local and outside powers fight for control. 
Eisenhardt, with his powers returned, travels home to Genosha - currently ruled by the Queen, his adoptive daughter, Wanda. 
After hearing of the death of her husband, Henry McCoy, Cecilia chose to come teach at Xavier's School For Gifted Youngsters in his stead. She has asked Professor X to help her in her search for her lost son, in the hopes that he is still alive. Two other professors who survived the battle against the HF Club remain at the school alongside Pongo, Joseph, Lee, and new Headmaster Kurt to help prepare for the school's reopening. These two men are John Proudstar (Thunderbird - brother of James Proudstar/Warpath, a member of the Brotherhood), and Milo Carosella (Smart Guy - son of Guido Carosella/Strong Guy, a former X-Men member who passed away in the Legacy Battle of 2020). There will also be the return of a certain figure Xavier managed to get in contact with after much effort.... Xavier's no longer in his prime, and without Cerebrus finding mutants is a strenuous task... nevertheless, the school's gym teacher is on his way.
 
The X-Mansion will also be welcoming a few new students in the upcoming school year; Sophie (adopted by Lee), Sila (twin rescued by Kurt and Grey from the Purifiers), Ramma (same as Sila), Greg (PEZ-Man), Winifred (vtuber named WinnieBear), and Angeni (her father, an old friend of Xavier's dropped her off at the school secretly during the night - he's ashamed to show his face there, but wishes his daughter be in the care of his old allies). 
There's recently been an intense argument between three famous vtubers during a collab on YouTube. WinnieBear supported the pro-mutant movement, Troopa83 was in favour of her, while Bab3 Doll openly claimed to be with the anti-mutant side. It escalated to WinnieBear revealing to the community that she was indeed a mutant. Fans of all three vtubers started a comments war on Twitter because of this. WinnieBear, with the support of her fans, chooses to enrol at Xavier's School. Her following videos will be her journey getting used to the school as well as meeting new people. 
In local news, the assassin who was arrested for the attempted murder of Xavier back in 2040, Viper, escaped from federal prison and is currently on the run. Members of the anti-mutant terrorist group called the Purifiers have been caught on occasion attempting to burn down the houses of known mutant families. An increase in unsolved kidnappings has plagued the States recently.

== OC SUBMISSIONS: ==
***GUIDELINES FOR MAKING AN OC***
****PLEASE POST YOUR OC SUBMISSION(S) as an individual post under the discussions side of this wiki - PLEASE make sure it is under the category; 'Marvelverse OCs')
# Can be a mutant or human. Can be evil or good. Can be a member of Xavier's school (lawful good), Magneto's Brotherhood (chaotic neutral), White Queen's Hellfire Club (lawful evil), the Purifiers (chaotic evil), or something else.
# MUTANT ABILITIES: Must not exceed a maximum of two main traits (e.g. Emma Frost has both diamond-hardening and telepathy). Must not be overpowered - I will ask you to nerf/weaken it if it is too op.
# NO MARY SUES OR GARY STUES: Other than not being overpowered, your character must have definable traits that set them apart from others, yet keep them realistic - e.g. they can't be "good at all sports in existence", "always got good grades and are perfect at everything".
# REGARDING CANON: If you'd like to play a canon character, let me know (see 'Rhino's Confirmed Characters' below first). If you wish for your OC to be related to canon characters, that is alright, just make sure to run it by me first. If you wish to have a character that has something to do with the Marvelverse outside of the X-Men (e.g. an Asgardian), that may be negotiated, depending on the details/circumstances surrounding the OC.
# We do need more than just good-guy students at Xavier's school, so PLEASE FEEL FREE to make villain characters as well.
# There's no limit of OCs per person; just make sure that you aren't biting off more than you can chew.
