Just two years ago the world erupted in a massive fight between humans and mutants, X-Men and Brotherhood. In the midst of certain failure, the X-Men triumphed and overcame the Brotherhood. Forcing the Brotherhood back to their island nation, Genosha, the X-Men quickly set about to fix relations between mutants and humans. Now, two years later, things are just barely back to the way they used to be, with humans fearful of mutants, yet not ready to take up arms against the race.
Many changes have been made since the X-Men have once again defeated their foe, changes on both ends. The original X-Men have stepped back, focusing much of their time on running the school and helping other mutants to understand their powers. The original team is now considered to be the Elite team, used only when extreme measures must be taken. New faces fill the ranks of current X-Men team, and new students are just beginning their first semester at school.
As for the Brotherhood, their ranks are filling with new faces as well. Magneto still leads the forces, and is said to be accumulating mass amounts of mutants on Genosha. Being declared a no-fly zone for other nations, no one is sure just how many mutants Magneto has brought together.
Stand beside the victorious and add your name to history as one of the famed X-Men or take up the devious ways of the Brotherhood, striking when everyone least expects it.
