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.
I have a new request/ idea, I would like to do some investigating into Julia’s past and so I would like a plot/ threads that can take place anywhere from when she was 15( 2013) to present day ( really I have quite a few ‘present’ plots( within a year) at the moment, and while I am not picky with more ( shoot me an idea if you have one, I will still gladly accept ) present day plots would make it harder to fit in, timeline wise and so something that takes place in the past would be cooler . it still gives about 4 and a half other years that will remain untouched and open for rping out plots( and even developing your own character’s past too! ) I am up for simplistic and complex plots! Just let me know that you are interested too
Furthermore these plots can’t touch NYC at all, given a current thread that’s her ‘first time in nyc’ taking place and I would prefer it to be out of NY state and maybe in Canada/ or other northern states of the US.
Either of my characters, "Chief" or Ezra Pahlke could potentially withstand rudeness from Julia. Jack would likely think she's funny and or call her out on stuff, situation determining. Ezra would be flustered and would attempt to reprimand her. Give them a look and see if either interests you! DM me on discord if you want to plot.
While Warlock can have a lot of fun with just about anyone, you may find it more beneficial to your character's growth and arc if Tempest is involved. He is a known entrepreneur, philanthropist, and psychologist. He works publicly with mutants and is one. He's also very mobile when the came demands, let alone having access to a few areas outside of NYC. I've wanted to do a few "out in nature" threads with him so this could be an excellent opportunity as well, especially where Tempest can speak from his experience. He's quite nice and annoyingly calm even in the face of ignorant or difficult people. I've certainly had a thread or two with those people, especially teenagers like a certain black-winged Astrid character...
Perhaps Tempest's organization Hadden's Havens could have been informed as to Julia's presence? Or maybe it was more government/police contacting him through political/police channels? Hadden's Havens operates two facilities outside of NYC (one in Long Island and the other in Bermuda) that are for rehab, psychological treatment, but also self help, spa, and education. I think there's opportunity there.
Beyond that there's Sanctuary a homeless shelter and community center that Devon visits and Haven supports. I think you'll find all of Haven faction eager to help you. Jack Dyer is but one example!
