C&C 2020
Someone call for a dystopian future au? Sometime around 2013 (THIS IS NEW, GUYS, WE'RE JUST SLIDING THE SHIT HITTING THE FAN FORWARD A FEW YEARS OKAY), the government in the City decided that they'd had enough of these superhero antics. There was a nationwide crackdown on metas, requiring registration upon penalty of incarceration. The network was shut down, and many residents were scattered to the winds. There are a few that stayed in touch, however. That's where you come in.
For some of you, this might be from before your time. Not to fear! Since it's a highly flexible splinter universe, there's pretty much no such thing as canon. Retcons abound, either as allowances for contradictory canon information (except for the premise, of course), or even just if the player wants to change something around!
So, use this post as a free-for all. New characters get new projected histories, dropped characters can be said to have come back, and old characters can be reexamined or given more story. On Sunday, an open post will be put up in
cnc2020 proper, so use this time to work out information and pimp this out to players who're eligible but may not see this (you can also ahead and start your own posts in that comm)! Remember, any character that has been played in maingame is automatically good to go.
HANK MCCOY
Hank was one of registration's most public opponents, having been through much of the same at home, and ever the diplomat. But the talks steered out of his favor, and he went into hiding after becoming a political target, one of those loud voices they could make a demonstration out of silencing.
He has found a way to keep the Institute running, somewhere in Montana. It isn't as much of a school so much as a refuge anymore, though he does try to run classes as he finds the necessity. He never leaves the premises, out of fear of being found, but he has agents and sympathizers all around getting him messages from the outside world, and he constantly works to find safe paths to lead other imPorts on the run into his doors where they'll be safe.
He's become something of a farmer like his father, but out of trying to maintain a sustainable and independent existence for himself and those in his care. His knowledge of science is now directed to agricultural engineering, brainstorming ways to create better and healthier crops. It's a shame he'll never be able to share his findings with the rest of the world.
He's barely 40 and the grey is really starting to creep into that blue fur.
