It takes a real crazy not to like forum games. Do you need something to stimulate the ol' brain? Sometimes a bit of relaxed writing helps. This is a good place to do so.

A Step Beyond | The Astral Realm
The Astral Plane is a level reality formed by the collective consciousness of all living beings. Those with telepathic powers can enter into the astral plane. Once there, they can travel in their astral form to places they might not otherwise be able to reach, walking the thin borders that distinguishes thoughts, dreams, and reality. The Astral plane is incredibly susceptible to powerful thought, and only those of formidable telepathic skill should engage in any serious business here.

Xavier Estate: Ground area
The more formal areas of the Xavier Mansion are located on Ground level, such as the Ballroom or the Entrance to the school. Most students do not often visit the Ground level unless a dance or ball has been thrown, though it is common for students to kick back and relax in these formal areas if they are not being used.

McTaggart Hall: The Eastern Quadrant
The Eastern Quadrant is a mainly for educational purposes. Containing things such as Class rooms, a Library, Computer Lab, and Squad Meeting Rooms, this Quadrant is not often visited unless it is deemed mandatory by the student as a project needs to be done or a student needs a book, or even if they must attend class. Students tend to shy away during non-class periods.

Ramsey Hall: Western Quadrant
This particular portion of the Mansion is filled with things visited daily. For instance, the Kitchen is a vast area which is open to anyone twenty-four hours a day, which allows anyone to collect food, snacks, or drinks at any time of the day. The Study hall is located in this area as well, so it is imperative that one remains silent when walking these halls during class hours.

Xavier Estate: Exterior
The Xavier Institute is not just constructed beautifully, or a state of the art facility, but is also houses several beautiful outside interactions, such as the lush Gardens or beautiful Reservoire. On clear days, the beauty that radiates these places often captivates the students, teachers, or visitors, who find themselves lost in thought.

This particular area of the estate houses many things, though mainly offices. The Observation Tower is the home of the Headmaster and Headmistresses office, as well as the office of the Student Body Presidents and the Dean of Admissions. For those who are in trouble, they would find themselves in this tower with a very cross telepath waiting to use disciplinary action.

Xavier Estate: Subterranean Levels
Generally, these grounds are hidden from the public view and known only to those currently located within the mansion and previous members of this mansion. All Metalic, these facilities are state-of-the-art, and are often used to train current X-men, or future X-Men. There are such things as Cerebra, the Telepathic mutant locator, or the Danger Cave, which has long since replaced the Danger Room. These areas are often limits to students unless permission has been given or they are allowed to enter the Medical lab, which is located in the sub-basement.

District X
Due to the rising population of mutants, homosuperior activists have worked diligently with the government to form an area within the Manhattan area called District X, or 'Mutant Town'. While not neccessarily boasting a high-standard of living, mutants may reside here for the most part without fear, or persecution due to their mutancy. This is also the location of X-Factor's headquarters.

New York City
An entire world exists within a single city, and for the prurient mind, New York City is the city which never sleeps. Enjoy yourselves, but never forget that New York City is equal in parts beauty, and chaos. Blind lurking may just lead one into the wrong element.

Boston, Massachussetts: The Massachussetts Academy
Formerly the most prestigious preparatory school in all of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Academy is now a refuge for those displaced by the destruction of the Xavier Institute. Located in the inner-vestiges of the chilly Snow Valley, the Massachusetts Academy is both well out of sight and distanced from the dangerous eyes of society. Though certainly not equal to the Xavier Mansion in size, the former base of the late Hellions serves as a cozy safe-house for the students of Xavier's dream.

Great Britain - land of the Queen, high society, and the largest financial district in Europe. Naturally, this city houses the former X-corporation office building. Now re-named X.S.E. the high-rise now serves as the living space and base of operations for the European X-Men.

Master Mold Facility, Equador
For having been in existence for such a short time, this facility has shown itself to be one of the main players in the destruction of the mutant homeland known as Genosha, which occured quite some time ago. Soon after, it was abandoned, though it certainly did not stay that way. Located in Equador, this 'wild sentinel' factory is now under the control of the genetic offshoots known as 'The Children'. Supplied with weapons of mass destruction, plus everything they could need--and more--to live company, this facility strangely goes unseen, and unharmed by the rest of the world thanks to the base's super adaptoid abilites.

Madrid, Spain: The Hellfire Club
A natural breath of all the high-society has to offer, the Hellfire Club is the natural poster-child for wealth and vanity. Standing proudly at the northernmost end of the fabulous Madrid, the gold encrusted palatial chateaus is the sweet drink of solitude, and decadence in an otherwise bustling city. While home to the world's elite - having dealings in both world politics and economics - the Hellfire Club also serves as the base of operations for the mysterious, though dreadfully powerful Inner Circle.

South Pacific: Providence
Comprised of advanced technology and a host of the world's greatest minds, the isle of Providence is nigh-unanimously considered the archetypal utopia. Fission waste processors eliminate the issue of pollution, and highly sophisticated solar powering makes Providence the most energy efficient region on the Earth. Ironically, despite being one of the world's most peaceful regions, Providence also happens to serve as the base of operations for the clandestine X-Force.
