Mutant High

It's amazing how much things can change over the course of a year. A new president, former Director of Homeland Security Bolivar Trask, has been elected by the people of the United States of America in the hopes that he will continue advances in mutant/human relations. The Mutant Cure, the biggest news story of the past five years, lingered in the media with the destruction of Alcatraz Island but revelations that the effects are temporary have been popping up more and more often. The Brotherhood, once the biggest mutant threat to national security, dissolved. Their leader completely disappearing from the radar.

For the students and staff at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, there is cause for optimism. Professor Charles Xavier, seemingly disintegrated by the Phoenix has been replaced in his duties at the school by Dr. Moira MacTaggert, his close associate. She has taken over duties as headmistress of the educational program at the school, surprising many who never expected to see a human running a mutant school. The X-Men, still relatively hidden from the public eye, were led by Ororo Munroe who institued a program to train a younger generation and prepare them to one day be X-Men themselves.

Mutantkind found a time of peace. Rarely does peace last.

Mutants began to disappear, kidnapped by mysterious metallic men and incarcerated on the Pacific island of Genosha. The X-Men launched a rescue mission, accomplishing a two-fold goal of shutting down the production of Mutant-Hunting Sentinel robots and rescuing the captured mutants. To avoid public fallout, Trask ceded the island into Mutant hands so that they could form a nation of their own.

Meanwhile, newly appointed leader of the X-Men, Kitty Pryde, is assembling a team and taking the X-Men into the sphere. At the same time, the children of Magneto gather likeminded individuals for a reborn Brotherhood. And who are these mysterious individuals at the head of the Friends of Humanity?

The times they are a changin'. Whether they are to change for the positive or not has yet to be seen.
