Busy with school, family, work? Are you sick? Have writers block? IF you cannot meet your Once a Week Posting Quota for whatever reason your responsibility as a member of Mana4X2 is to let us know.
Note: Do NOT simply tell one of the Admins. This forum is here for a reason;; everyone needs to know.
Contains everything and anything a student of Xavier's needs to know, as well as additional information about the BrS, DME, HFC, & the other places regularly featured in Mana4X2.
Charles Xavier's estate covers an extensive area between Graymalkin Lane and Breakstone Lake. The Olympic-size swimming pool is located directly to the rear of the mansion, along with patios and decking for outdoor entertaining and recreation. Elsewhere on the property there are stables and, on the shores of the lake, the boathouse and docks can be found. There are also Japanese gardens, and a communications tower, which also substitutes as an exterior security building, where the entire estate can be monitored from.
Renovated to incorporate personal living quarters for those who love the feel of the attic, Angel’s room, out of respect, was not touched, as per Xavier’s request. The attic also has a large "playroom," used as a recreation area, a room for communications equipment, and the stairway up to the mansion's Observation Tower & Roof.
Step over the threshold and into the foyer. Spot the grand staircase and explore some more;; a magnificently furnished Day Room, classrooms, the dome shaped Cafeteria, which can be accessed via the main kitchen;; a casual sitting room for guests, an extensive library, an auditorium, staff offices, and Charles Xavier's private living quarters, with his office right next door.
The 2nd Floor currently has an East & West Wing used for the Girls and Boys Dorms, as well as two of the major classrooms. The 3rd Floor, aside from the guest rooms, and the Staff Common Room, is for the housing of the Teacher's Apartments and living quarters, each also with their own bathroom ensuite.
NB: The Staff members rooms that do not feature will be added when they are once again in play. When the second floor is refurbished after the new Girls & Boys Dorms finally go into play, more teacher/staff/resident apartments will be built.
With the basement serving the normal function, containing the rather large community laundry room, the oil and water heaters, the back up generator system, and the storage of wine, furniture, and books, it is only one of four sub-levels found here at Mana4X2. Rather than making a separate forum for each, the description for each area will clearly mark whether it is located in the basement, or one of the sub basement levels. Oh, and if you need a quick exit there are entrances to secret passageway leading to the lower levels as well.
For a more detailed description of each level, click here.
With a main foyer, a main staircase, and a first floor containing the kitchen and other such meeting areas, the boys dorms are also reminiscent of the main mansion. Enjoy the new Observatory built into a section of the attic, and the roof is accessible too, holding specific reading and relaxing areas, along with rooftop gardens.
NB: Will not go into play officially in game until January 1st, 2006.

Erik Lensherr’s estate covers an extensive area taking in two blocks down from the last house on each side of Elamason Drive to the forest and cliff face that looks over a very deep, and very beautiful valley below.
Now that the Brotherhood mansion is no longer a school, and, due to the fact it is a far smaller faction than the X-Men, all parts of it, from the Roof to the Ground Floor, but not including the Sublevels have been compiled into this forum.
Please go here for a full and detailed description of The Brotherhood Superiorum.
Aside from the usual things found in most basements, this one has been altered to incorporate the large medical facilities & various laboratories.
Beneath that, several meters down, is a special level, primarily given over to the Death Room, located under the Dojo, the hangar/garage, and the alternate living quarters in case of an emergency. The hanger can be accessed via two areas, please see THIS thread to find out exactly what they are.
Established in 1986, and situated in the heart of New York City, DME has grown to inlcude a floor for taxes; a floor for accounting; three floors for the overly extensive and very large Gym; a floor for computing: buying, selling, repairs; laborers, plasterers, painters, builders, plumbers, technical advisors, communication experts, the floors for buying, selling, repairing, and trading the goods found and needed within these services; a mechanics shop built within the underground car park, and, don't forget. New York isn't the only city DME has reached.
In the middle of nowhere, surrounded by desert, and referred to as The Entertainment Capital of the World, Sin City, better known as Las Vegas, is the most populous city in the state of Nevada, the seat of Clark County, and an internationally renowned major resort city for gambling, shopping, and entertainment. The Las Vegas Boulevard stretches 7.2 kilometers and along it, way back when, Colin Damien Myne procured himself a rather lavish skyscraper, setting up the Las Vegas branch of Damien-Myne Enterprises.
Located along the banks of the Potomac River and named after George Washington, the first US President, Washington DC is the Capital of the United States, and a center of American history and culture. For these two reasons, making the city a popular destination for tourists, the founder of Damien-Myne Enterprises agreed to the purchase and subsequent setting up of the Washington branch of his steadily growing business.
All positions within the Washington DC branch of DME are open, including someone to run it.
New York City is the most densely populated city in the United States, with its metropolitan area ranking among the largest urban areas in the world. With The Statue of Liberty, Wall Street, in Lower Manhattan, and the Empire State Building, the city is a popular tourist destination, and a chosen place to live, 36% of its population born outside the United States. A 24-hour subway, constant bustling of traffic and people, New York is "The City That Never Sleeps”, The Big Apple… and sometimes… it’s even referred to as Gotham.
So many small hamlets, or communities, can be found within North Salem, such as Croton Falls in the northwest, Grant Corner in the southwest, North Salem in the east, the Twin Lakes Village on the south town line, and Purdy’s south of Croton Falls. There are also two lakes - Peach Lake, at the north town line, and the Titicus Reservoir in the west, Salem Center located towards the east end.
From Colorado to Las Vegas. From Washington DC to Miami. From Quebec to Anchorage. If your characters is anywhere other than New York;; anywhere in the US or Canada that doesn’t have its own forum, this is where to put them.
Forums will be added on a needed basis. Have one your character will be frequenting often, ask us to add it.
Outside of The US & Canada, there is a whole other world. So many places to explore, so many people to meet. From South America to Africa. From Europe to The Middle East. From Australia to the Islands of the Pacific.
Basically, when we have a site wide plot happening, to avoid confusion, all threads related to it will be played out in here, rather than in the specific location sections of the board.
Four over four years now, Mana4X2 has been alive and kicking, so, it makes sense there are old game threads, old events, things that just have to be kept and referred to from time to time.
In here you will find the archived Game Days before the board changes to Mana4X2, with their accompanying Summaries. For all Summaries AFTER the board changes, see the Thread Tracking Forum.
This is the Fan Fic Mana4X2 picks up from. It is a major WIP, however, now that Mana4X2 is all I have to worry about, yours truly will get to work on finally finishing this off.
If you play ANY of the major canons in this game you may be interested in reading the story that was the inspiration for Mana4X2. Kinda neat to know what happened way back when, don't ya think?
