Last Week in X-Project

To read along with the game, visit xp_friends!



Nov 1 - Monster Mash: Darcy vents her feelings about magic books. Felicia thanks Kevin for her birthday gift.


Nov 2 - Laurie texts Kyle to say she owes him an apology. Monster Mash/The Color of Horror: Topaz posts to xp_teams to explain what happened on Halloween - a magic book brought in by Darcy appears to have been booby-trapped but the spell was warped by the magic of [[Avalon]]; the book is no longer there and ripped a hole in the pocket dimension in the process of leaving; Avalon is collapsing and Topaz will work at retrieving what artifacts she can. Doug and Darcy go out for mini-golf and Darcy loses a wager.


Nov 3 - Arise, X-Man: In a much better frame of mind after her retreat, Laurie talks to Doug about their break up, with Darcy mediating.


Nov 4 - The Color of Horror: Topaz updates the Avalon situation, asking for volunteers to help clear out the books and artifacts as the dimension is collapsing faster than she anticipated; the magic users pack while the volunteers carry, with appropriate safety measures; Avalon is attacked by mysterious (and highly creepy) creatures with the same aim as theirs, plunder Avalon as much as possible; the mutants fight back, but are overwhelmed by numbers and Topaz sounds the retreat; holding the attackers back so the rest of the mansionites can escape, Topaz is trapped in Avalon when the dimension closes completely; Darcy notifies Maya about Topaz; Marie-Ange notifies X-Force; somewhere in the dark and cold, Topaz wakes up and decides to try and find her way home; Darcy notifies the mansion at large what happened; Darcy lets the rest of the magic users who weren’t there know what happened; Doug texts Darcy to let her know Marie-Ange’s ‘quick and dirty’ reading shows Topaz has a future still; Betsy asks Hope to catch her up on recent events with Topaz.


Nov 5 - The Color of Horror: Laurie asks Darcy what she needs; Alani announces she’ll be keeping the library open; Gabriel suggests not going anywhere for a while; Kevin checks in on Darcy and gives her the task of setting up a new system of drops since the old one appears to have been compromised by whoever sent the book; Alex checks in on Kyle and Alani.


Nov 6 - The Color of Horror: Marie-Ange announces that her readings show Topaz has a future and that they’re working on a way to bring her back; Gabriel texts Felicia and is sceptical of Marie-Ange’s method of determining Topaz is alive.


Nov 7 - Maya asks for suggestions on non-lethal weapons as her knives are too deadly for her comfort in a mission; Kyle agrees to get back to training her in Garrison’s absence. Namor emails Kyle to let him know his concerns about OHSA procedures not being applied during the Avalon job.
