The X-men run missions and work together with the NYPD, striving to maintain a peaceful balance between humans and mutants. When it comes to a fight, they won't back down from protecting those who need their help.
Haven presents itself as a humanitarian organization for activists, leaders, and high society, yet mutants are the secret leaders working to protect and serve their kind. Behind the scenes they bring their goals into reality.
From the time when mutants became known to the world, SUPER was founded as a black-ops division of the CIA in an attempt to classify, observe, and learn more about this new and rising threat.
The Syndicate works to help bring mutantkind to the forefront of the world. They work from the shadows, a beacon of hope for mutants, but a bane to mankind. With their guiding hand, humanity will finally find extinction.
Since the existence of mutants was first revealed in the nineties, the world has become a changed place. Whether they're genetic misfits or the next stage in humanity's evolution, there's no denying their growing numbers, especially in hubs like New York City. The NYPD has a division devoted to mutant related crimes. Super-powered vigilantes help to maintain the peace. Those who style themselves as Homo Superior work to tear society apart for rebuilding in their own image.

Got a plot in mind?
MRO plots are player-created the Mods facilitate and organize the big ones, but we get the ideas from you. Do you have a plot in mind, and want to know whether it needs Mod approval? Check out our plot guidelines.
Thousands of years ago nearly all life on earth was extinguished. There have been many theories as to what caused this colossal cataclysm, this huge holocaust, this Armageddon. Some believe a terrible pestilence ravaged the earth, striking down all those who were unfit for existence. Others believe the culprit to be an asteroid which fell from the inky void of space and whose impact caused the earth to go through biblical changes.
Now imagine for a moment that the latter theory holds true; a giant slab of intergalactic rock, hurtling through space on a random trajectory with no point or purpose which by mere chance managed to strike the planet on which we all live.
Now what if I told you it was no accident?
What if I told you something summoned it? Something so outrageously powerful it makes nuclear warheads seem insignificant and puts the most destructive mutants to shame? You’d probably say I was mad, and I wouldn’t blame you.
Suppose for a moment though that you did believe me, that you believed a creature powerful enough to obliterate a planet once walked this earth. Can you truly imagine such a terrifying entity? No, of course you can’t no one can. You see such a powerful being was never meant to exist, yet it does, to this very day…
Plot so far:
Random archeologist in some unknown part of the globe discovers a strange statue hidden in the heart of a dormant volcano. This statue is the ‘petrified’ remains of the planet destroying creature described above.
The statue quickly becomes the target for every power hungry individual in the world, after all who wouldn’t want to rain down meteors on their foes and against their missiles.
Eventually the statue comes into the possession of a crime syndicate known as triangular. The statue is locked away in a secure environment while research is conducted on the statue to see if the creature inside can be cloned or possibly revived.
The key to the secure environment/vault which holds the statue is placed in the hands of a middle man whom the syndicate has come to trust for some reason. This trust soon turns out to be misplaced as the guardian of the key decides he wants the statue and its powers for himself. To that end he holds a series of illegal tournaments in order to enlist those with sufficient combat abilities.
…that’s about as far as I’ve gotten, so comments, criticisms, anything?
