Character Introduction / Serenity Clan0

Sylum Inspiration: Sameen Shaw

Serenity: Hunter

Shaw lost her parents when she was younger, and ended up in foster care for most of her teenager life.  She had gone to medical school, but was told she didn’t have the right ‘bedside manner’ – so she joined the US Marines.

She was recruited out of the Marines into NSA, from there she ended up working what she would discover ‘relevant numbers’.  When they decided to retire her, she was recruited by John Reese.

It took her less than six weeks to figure out there was more going on than two idiots working to help people.  When she confronted them about the lack of a heart beat they tried to work their way around it, she pointed out she does have a medical degree.

She didn’t have an interest in being Turned, didn’t see the point.  Until a Number went bad, and she lay dying and Joss gave her the opportunity.

Last Chance: Sylum Con Vote

This the Last Poll to see how many are interested!  At the moment we’re at 10 people, and to be honest that isn’t enough to make having a Sylum Con into a reality.  If you have already voted do NOT vote again.

As a reminder …

If we have one it will be in Los Angeles, likely around Octoberish 2019.  We’ll need at least 20 people interested, and by interested I mean truly plan to go – not just oh sounds like fun but can’t really make it.  There will be a Con Fee to cover expenses for conference rooms, events, etc.  At this early in the game we’re not sure what that will be, but it would likely start at $100.

As Cons like these are a lot of work, I’m starting this early!  Please fill out the poll below to showcase if you’re truly interested.

Character Introduction / Vampire Council0

Sylum Inspiration: Sean Cassidy

Vampire Council: Member

Sean doesn’t talk too much about his childhood.  He will talk relunctantly about his parents, state they loved him but didn’t know what to do with him.

His mutation came during puberty but he was able to hide it through school. It wasn’t until Charles showed up (ironically while he was on a date … yes a date that went bad but a date none the less) that he realized he could do more with his life.

He liked the school, and was eager to help learn more about his mutation and what he could to help.

He was confused when Alex disappeared for a while, but when Alex returned he sat him down with the Professor and told him about Vampires and Mates.

Sean needed some time to think about everything, went for a small road trip and when he returned wanted to date Alex.

Six months later he was Turned.

Sylum Information: Mutants

I’m sure many of you are you curious on how we’re pulling off two different X-Men universes.

Dude it’s Sylum – of course we’re going to blend the two, plus add in elements from the original comics, because that is what we do.

  • Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) has been a Vampire for a while, and wasn’t shot in a beach in Cuba.
  • Max Eishenart (Ian McKellan) was a victim to the camps, and met Charles in Israel, they are still very old friends who don’t quite see the world in the same way.
  • Charles Deacon (James McAvoy) is a young man who is was changed by That Night, and his life is changed again by meeting Erik Lehnsherr.
  • Erik Lehnsherr (Michael Fassbender … fucking bastard who snuck his way in more times than I care to admit!) was tossed onto the streets when he was young because of his Mutation, and built a friendship with Charles Deacon.

We’re mixing Mutants from both universes.

From the X-Men: First Class series: Alex Summers, Sean Cassidy, and Armando – along with Emma Frost and Azazel, have been or will be introduced.

From the X-Men original series: Storm, Scott Summers and Jean Gray have already be introduced.  And we’ll be introducing Bobby and Kitty.

We’ve also tossed in Gambit, Sabertooth, and in time will showcase both versions of Hank.

In case you’re wondering – Mystique will only be the original version (I’m sorry but Mystique isn’t the good guy no matter how hard the new series made her out to be).

As for Wolverine – as Hugh Jackman is ageless so is our Logan.  Though you’ve already met him … Lycan is way older than anyone expected, and his not quite a Mutant, Human or Vampire – instead a mix match of all three … as his is Mate Lyca.

The Mutant storyline is developing, and will seep into more stories as we go.  Evolution is still the big introduction, the one we’ll be working off from here on out.
