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.
MRO is an intermediate to advanced writing level original character, original plot X-Men RPG. We've been open and active since October of 2005. You can play as a mutant, human, or Adapted— one of the rare humans who nullify mutant powers by their very existence. Goodies, baddies, and neutrals are all welcome.

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.
Who wants to subject our characters to mayhem and trauma?? I'm back, and I'm ready to write horrible things for Alice!
... ... ...
Uh, no but really...anyone interested in creating some chaos? I was specifically thinking a METAbot attack (unless that's been done a lot already and y'all are sick of 'em) or some public event gone awry since there is no shortage of destructive mutants and/or folks who hate mutants. I'm very open to brainstorming! ;w;
I just looked up Kai, and he seems very cool. (His mutation is so interesting!) And he and Alice are pretty close in age and share some personality traits, so I can see them getting along as well. I would be down for this thread!

*is a lover of all of teh mayhem* I would love to join! Posting is non-existent for me right now, but on Sunday I'm hoping to get back to posting. Once I am, I am so game to get a thread going with either Astrid or Juliette.
Depending on how tough of a METAbot we want on our hands, both Astrid or Juliette would be fine! If you choose to throw Juliette in, I think it would be okay for us to go with a stronger METAbot? And with Astrid, maybe one not as tough. (Sorry if I'm underrating her combat potential! This is just my judgment based on their profiles. ;; I'll start the thread with a general intro, and we can decide exactly what we want to face from there?
Here's a link to the different types of bots! I was originally thinking we would go up against a glitched Knight (maybe give it a little power boost) since Alice and Kai don't have combat-oriented mutations.
Edit: I started the META Bot thread! I kept it open for anyone else who wants to jump in.
Go ahead, Tempest! That means we can up the toughness of the bot a bit too. > I had intended for this to happen post-Utopia announcement, but I'm okay with it being pre-announcement if y'all prefer!
Sorry. I'm a little confused on the layout of the scene. I'm picturing the three at the bus stop on a corner of a big intersection. Devon is crossing the street toward the cafe. He is walking towards the girls on the crosswalk. The cafe is behind the bus stop. The meta bot is running up the sidewalk to intercept Devon when he teaches the bus stop in front of the cafe. Is this right? Can someone set me straight?
I'm a bit confused too though that's okay. I tried to roll it together with what I've read.
Forgive how basic this is, but this is what I was envisioning. Of course if Tempest is supposed to have reached the coffee shop already and the Knight is targeting him I'm perfectly okay with that. I think the picture would still be right other than Devon is in the coffee shop.
I'll start the thread with a general intro, and we can decide exactly what we want to face from there?
