Mutants Wiki

**Welcome to the Mutants Wiki**
Attention all citizens. This is a message from your president.

As of today, January 1st, 2030, you are hereby required to report any and all signs of mutant activity to your local law enforcement. Failing to disclose any information or harboring one of these creatures is punishable by a sizable fine and/or jail time. These so called "mutants" are a menace to society and pose a substantial threat to civilization as we know it. They must be eradicated for the greater good of humanity.

*Thank you for your **cooperation**.*

The year 2030 marked the beginning of a monumental event which would eventually become known as the ‘Mutant Purge.’ The Mutant Purge placed a price on those who exhibited any sort of enhanced abilities or those who attempted to withhold any sort of information concerning mutant activity. Those deemed a danger to society found themselves either killed, forced into hiding or taken into government custody. As any and every law protecting mutant rights was quickly revoked, crimes against the species skyrocketed.

Twenty years after this movement came to pass, the majority of mutants had gone underground or taken refuge at the recently reopened *Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters*. At the beginning of the purge, the school had been raided by the government and subsequently deserted, but in more recent years mutants had finally begun to inhabit its halls once more.

After a mass breakout due to a riot that resulted in the destruction of Department K (one of the most infamous facilities known for inhumane experiments performed upon prisoners), a group of escaped mutants found their way to Xavier’s School and, for the first time in their lives, were welcomed with open arms. Despite the initial civility, the arrival of mutants from Department K set a swiftly unfolding chain of events into motion.

Witnessing the acts of cruelty humans were capable of firsthand opened the eyes of many at the academy and made them question whether attempts at making peace were as necessary as taking forceful action to protect themselves. The anger and bitterness displayed towards humanity by the handful that had escaped Department K resonated with many of those at the academy and before long, a clear divide had formed at the school.

The inevitable split happened approximately six months after the arrival of the escapees, as a large group of mutants – both new to the academy and those who’d been there for years – stole off into the night and cut off all communication outside their newfound alliance. This group eventually formed the legendary ‘Brotherhood,’ hoping to seize control of power worldwide through force. The Academy fights against their mutant brothers and sisters, defending mankind from their wrath and wholeheartedly believing that there is a more peaceful resolution. ⠀
