I'm Professor Charles Xavier, and I've agreed to come aboard as a warden.

I've done a bit of reading - or watching and listening, I guess, if we're really going to get technical - about what to expect while I'm here, and I've got a few questions, if some of you wouldn't mind answering. Where are you all from, to start off with?

[ooc: For anyone who missed out on it, the telepathy permissions meme is over here. Again, Charles and I will ask first before doing things, this is just a reference and establishing a baseline so I don't harass you via AIM every time it comes up. THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO HAS RESPONDED SO FAR, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

And here are his fourth wall restrictions.]
