You may have heard of the popular Greek myth of Pandora and how she opened up the box and released all hell on earth. But I'm sorry to say this RPG isn't about her though her names in the title. Moreover this RPG is about a similar situation, one that could happen even in life today, had the situations aligned themselves. Its the year 2010, in this RPG and the world has far past recovered from the traumatizing year of 1910. In that year a meteor had hit down in Georgia. Overtime, it had seemed to have only been a spectacle of the beholders, something that rarely happened in someones life. As time went on, many people became ill and died from a multiple of mutated diseases. People either fell under one of four categories, unharmed, severely ill, dead, or one of the far less known situations, mutated.
Though some were dying and others becoming ill, there were a select few that became inhuman, and possessed gifts and attributes that weren't known to man. Many people hid their gifts, with the numbers of them being so few and people being very weary of anything out of the norm. Realizing the situation, and having mutated himself, a minister called Michael O'Dair rose up and began what first started off as a small school, for people of the mutation. The school started off with few people seeing that some either remained unknown, or committed suicide for insanity. Nevertheless Michael O'Dair began Pandora's School of higher learning, for gifted students. The school went on to produce fine young men and women, and later down the road grew tremendously. He believed that God had given them their gifts for a reason, but the reason remained unclear.
Upon growing, the school established houses, thereby sorting each student into a group with others of their personality. The way they were sorted was by a man named Adonis O'Dell, whom possessed the gift of "Telepathy", would place his hands upon the students heads and call out the house he felt best suited for them based on their personality. Here are the houses below, along with their colors and house mascot image. btw the "firefox" animal is a red panda, "howler" black wolf, "Sabertooth" is a tiger, and "devilclaws" are hawks.

Once a student was discovered they would instantly be notified of the school. The school was so widely known that very few parents turned down the opportunity for their child to receive an education from there. Usually outsiders where only identified through an occurrence or an unexplained happening, in which then someone would be sent to investigate and if needed further pulls would be made to get the child there. With the school being so wide spread from years of being, many students had graduated and made there way into fields that would prove beneficiary to the school and its searching for gifted youngsters. The school ranges from first years to seventh years, first years beginning at the age of eleven to twelve.
Even as the sorting was with Adonis, there was also another male named Cyrus Finkle who had mastered his teleportation abilities, which proved greatly helpful when it came to students and their arrival at the school. At first it was a train that he would teleport to the school, but it later upgraded to students meeting at subway stations and getting upon the same cart lineup where they would then go on what seemed like a casual ride only to then be teleported to the schools subway line. The school itself is located on London's countryside. Michael had moved the school to London, because it was a place that he always dreamed of going. Nevertheless there is still the original branch left in Georgia as the head branch. Recently Michaels daughter Eve O'Daire has taken over the school as Headmistress. Nevertheless Michael always finds his way around the school daily to see how things are progressing with the students.
Lately things have been quiet in the mutant world with minimal frustration from past villans, nevertheless new ones could arise at any moment, and even some of the villains of the past. Over the years, minds have been erased of the memory of mutants that where seen, but over time there was just no way to cover it all up. Eventually people learned to accept it as a truth, but humans rarely adapt to it, without caution. The main reason being because though there are some good, there are also some bad, and if the government ever got hold of either, you could imagine the lengths they would go to dissect from head to toe the fallen mutant. As far as the end of the matter, we will just have to see what comes next, in this story.
