It's tough being a [[ComicBook/XMen mutant]] these days, what with the [[BlessedWithSuck unstable powers]] and the [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer rest of the world thinking you're either a menace or a freak]] and all that. Good thing the Xavier Institute of Higher Learning is there to give you a safe place to learn about what it means to be a mutant. What's the worst that could happen?

''Xavier Institute RPG'', often simply shortened to ''[=XI RPG=]'', is a JournalRoleplay that occurs on a Website/LiveJournal [[https://xi-rpg.livejournal.com/ here.]]

!! This roleplay provides examples of:
%%Administrivia/ZeroContextExamples are not allowed on the wiki. Please expand them with context before uncommenting them. Thank you.
* AbortedArc: Nothing actually happened in Genosha once the Brotherhood of Mutants conquered it. They have since suffered a major split, with a good number of the Brotherhood relocating to New York.
%%* AcademyOfAdventure: Check.
%%* TheAce: Otherwise known as The Endowment Board.
* ApatheticTeacher: Formerly, [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Shikamaru Nara]], who was somehow teaching Physics despite being a student ''and'' not giving a crap. [[AllThereInTheManual If you checked his app]], Shikamaru had already graduated high school ''before'' he arrived at the school. He was there for his powers only.
* ArtisticLicenseBiology: It is a Marvel game. [[Literature/MaximumRide And DNA works just like Lego bricks.]]
%%* BadassFamily
%%** Warren and Iggy.
%%** Iggy and Max.
%%** The "FACE" family: Alfred Jones, Arthur Kirkland, Francis Bonnefoy, and Matthew Williams.
* BlandNameProduct: Taken to ridiculous extremes; Thoupipe replaces Youtube, for instance.
* BlessedWithSuck: While most mutants have awesome powers, Rogue could kill someone by touching them, [[Literature/{{Animorphs}} Tobias]] is trapped in the form of a red-tailed hawk, and [[Literature/LesMiserables Bossuet]] is a walking bad-luck charm.
%%* CoolBoat: The Brotherhood's old sub.
%%* CastHerd
%%* CoolTeacher: Can you name one who's ''not?''
* CursedWithAwesome: Pretty much every student at XI ever. ''Poor'' them, being born with superpowers.
%%* DisabledSnarker: Auggie and [[Literature/MaximumRide Iggy]].
* ElaborateUniversityHigh: Aside from the normal classes and the ones designed for training mutant powers, the Institute also offers classes for Sharpshooting, Pop Culture and Fashion, and International Cuisine.
%%* EvilMentor: The dynamic duo of Mad Mod and Jack Spicer pretty much have this trope locked down.
%%* EvolutionaryLevels: What did you think this was, some sort of scientifically accurate game?
%%* FantasticRacism: People's opinions on mutants.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: The [[Series/DoctorWho weeping angels]] event sent many characters to arbitrary points in the past. This worked in reverse, as well; some of them spent so long in the past that it took some time to get re-acquainted to modern technology.
%%* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: The ''Film/{{Cloverfield}}'' monster appearing during a field trip.
%%* HandsomeLech: The Endowment Board. The entire thing.
%%* HarsherInHindsight: When [[ComicBook/{{Incarnate}} Sybil]] was a mun at nulla_vitae (see NestedStory bullet point below), she put up an OOC notice that she would be going on hiatus (during a Brotherhood mission) and if she didn't come back, "It means I died". Later on, she actually did die.
%%* HaveYouTriedNotBeingAMonster: Goes with the X-Men AU territory.
%%* HighSchoolAU: The premise of the game.
%%* HoYay: So much. SO MUCH.
%%* IJustWantToBeNormal: See StrawmanHasAPoint.
%%* LegionOfDoom: The Brotherhood of Mutants.
%%* LetsGetDangerous: The X-Men reforming in the middle of a mutant rights summit.
%%* MamaBear: Don't mess with Emma Frost's students.
%%* ManipulativeBastard: Several characters, notably Emma Frost and Lelouch.
* MinusWorld: In-game, Maleficent's breaking of reality trapped several characters on sub-planes of existence, from which others had to rescue them.
** On a more meta level, an error in the game's wiki left it with a possessed demon page that couldn't be visited or edited and which showed up in the list of files, but which couldn't be deleted because it "did not exist". It has since been remedied, but it was terrifying for the several hours for which it existed.
* MisfitMobilizationMoment: The students do ''not'' take having several of their classmates kidnapped by EvilutionaryBiologist [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Albert Wesker]] lying down.
%%* MoreHeroThanThou: Eli and Alfred.
* NestedStory: For a while, several characters at XI were muns at [[http://nulla-vitae.livejournal.com nulla_vitae]], a panfandom RP set in a broken-down city. They mostly played [[{{Expy}} expies]] of well-known fandom characters.
%%* OurDragonsAreDifferent: They're from space. Or the Temeraire and Pern novels, depending.
%%* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Type P, for the most part, due to Wesker's involvement. Also, Reg.
%%* PerformanceArtist: [[Theatre/{{Rent}} Maureen]].
%%* PhotographicMemory: [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Scieszka]].
%%* PsychicPowers: Several characters have these.
%%* SecretProjectRefugeeFamily: The ''Literature/MaximumRide'' cast, which has also adopted [[Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers Toris]].
%%* SoapBoxSadie: [[Literature/LesMiserables The Amis]] drift into this territory, and Ben Gleck also, although the latter is presented as wrong by the standards of the RP.
%%* StuffBlowingUp: Boats, forests, countries...
%%* StrawmanHasAPoint: The mutant cure is presented as a bad thing, but there is no real argument for why people with damaging mutations, or anyone at all, should be forced to live with them other than "different is good".
* SuperheroSchool: Played with in that there has been a good deal of public outcry as well as internal debate over the school's proffered combat class, and strictly speaking the students are not actually allowed to be superheroes. Not that this stops some of them.
%%* TrainingFromHell: Driver's ed class, taught by [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Leon Kennedy]]. Its original teacher, [[VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance Mia]], ran it this way as well (with a lot of RuleOfCool and RuleOfFunny thrown in).
* TheyWouldCutYouUp:
** [[Literature/MaximumRide Iggy and Max]] were created to be experimented on.
** This is how [[Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers Toris]] learned the extent of his healing factor.
%%* TraumaCongaLine: Pick a backstory, any backstory.
%%* TrueCompanions: Several groups have formed, as well as a looser, overarching one the students have toward the institute in general.
%%* TwoTeacherSchool: Massively averted.
%%* WildTeenParty: Several, most often started by [[Series/{{Skins}} Maxxie]].
* WingedHumanoid: The ''Literature/MaximumRide'' cast, [[ComicBook/XMen Warren]], and [[Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers Arthur Kirkland]] all possess wings.
%%* WellIntentionedExtremist
%%** ComicBook/{{Magneto}}, of course.
%%** [[Anime/CodeGeass Lelouch]] and his Zero Airlines, as well as sabotaging news reports.
%%** [[Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers Alfred]] can slide into this territory at times.
