[MCU] Raven Darkholme Quest

I was thinking more of the black community's reaction, actually. In the absence of Dr King and other black leaders laying the groundwork for people to feel like the risks of standing up for themselves are worth it to achieve a brighter future with less fear for their children, some white chick who isn't immediately, obviously a mutant trying to get them to feel the same way is likely to be met with "Good lord, girl, don't you think the police have enough reasons to throw our sons in jail and 'accidentally' beat them to death?"


Keep in mind it won't be just us supporting the Civil Rights movement by ourselves. The context of this vote seems to indicate that we will be convinced Eisenhower to throw his support behind something. While a famous white woman supporting the Civil Rights movement might be met with some scorn that does not apply to Eisenhower. Eisenhower can easily justify his support for the Civil rights movement by citing his experience with African-American soldiers during the war. This seems like it would be a very compelling argument that would appeal to all patriotic Americans regardless of their political affiliation.

I was reading the wiki about the history of Charles to see if he was really around 70 when he found the X-men in the 90s since he doesn't look it (in any of the X-men media) and his age was never mention either. I notice that he meet Storm in Cairo soon after the Korean War. I am wondering if we missed this event while we were in Egypt?

Comic book worlds operate on a rolling timeline. You can't really expect ages to make sense at all.
 

Alright looks like this is in the lead:

[13] Yeah. You would like to see America in space. Also, a billionaire boy genius named Nathaniel Richards wants to talk.​

[11] Work on your powers with Charles, or rather to see how the Serum has affected you.
[12] Go to Warren Buffett and actually take time to learn the ins and outs, maybe invest further.
[12] Work with Howard on establishing Starkvalley, the Land of Tomorrow for all ages.
[9] Register and attend university to study ancient Egypt archeology and cats and stuff.​

[12] Manage your finances
-[9] Invest another $4,406,000.00 with Warren, and spend $4,040,907.50 on shares in Stark Stark Cybernetics/Starkvalley.​

With these as the runners up:

[5] Communicate with Howard's people and integrate into the military industrial complex.
[4] Do a Coca Cola commercial and advertisement using music or musical-stuff.
[4] See what this Nathaniel Richards kid wants to do with his weird 'colonize the moon' idea.​
 
Its more like i'm not sure how many 1d10s we need.

On one hand, it looks like we need one roll. On the other, "things".

Not that it matters. really.
 
Dah, they broke up. Then again, this is in Marvel. Give it a couple of year, death fight, death and ressurection and they'll be together again.
 
I don't actually know how to roll so if it doesn't turn up, just ignore it.

Edit: Ok I think it worked : D
melody-chii threw 1 10-faced dice. Reason: 1d10+5 idk how to do this Total: 8
8 8

Overall the rolls were pretty good. I wish the failure hadn't been on Stark Valley though, as that's one of the more important ones I think. Learning actions you can repeat later afterall.

Yeah, would have much rather failed that. On the bright side, maybe a high roll in college means we had fun and managed to lose some of that stress?

Plus, if they match up with the tally we crit-succeeded on exploring our Serum powers. That's good.
