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.

So....
After the registration plot and breakout is over...Tarin and Lee are going on a bit of a relationship hiatus...the stress of the things that they've been through recently is going to be too much and Lee is going to move out of the apartment and in with her brother. Ultimately they're going to end up back together, but they were having too easy of a time getting to the altar, so something had to be done.
The most recent merge (during the breakouts) is going to kind of make something snap in Tarin and he's going to be on a mission to figure out what it is that makes merges happen and how he can control them. He's also going to be trying to reconcile himself with the lives he's taken in those situations.
I'm not sure if this is going to end up being something that he figures out or not, but I'm hoping for some people to be involved in his discovery process...or even someone to hear about what he can do and maybe want to use him for a diobolical scheme of some sort. You know how it is...I love drama.
Soooo in short, if anyone is interested in particpating in this, I'd love to know. And for those of you who watch, you're going to see a darker, more brooding and serious Tarin than you've seen before....should be interesting because I've never tried to play him like that before.
I'm actually thinking that, because of the whole new Canada forum Calley created , that Lee would end up heading back north and staying with Rachel for a bit. Largely because, well after everything that's happened, Robert's whole "I told you so, told you he was bad for you" thing is going to just be too much for Lee to deal with for very long. Plus, that could give a nice way to bring in Rachel :-)

Oooooooo Lee, I think that's marvelous. These are going to be some interesting times. Poooooooooooooooor Lee and Tarin. It'll be okay though...eventually, and Rachel is going to be on Tarin's side right? Since she's going to be mine if I ever get to 300 posts, I think she should be. *beams and nodds*
*giggles* Yeah, I was thinking she'd be on Tarin's side, calling him to try and talk some sense into him because Lee's miserable. She'd have to be tricky about that, though, since neither Lee nor Robert would willingly give her Tarin's number...so maybe she'd find Josh's number in Lee's purse or something, then call him to get Tarin's number? We'll work something out.

Calley
I'll volunteer Rup for any slot you think he could fit in. Which may be especially fun as, last he heard, Tarin is a no-good cheating dog. If Lee is off where the moose live, and can't correct him on that... Rup will definitely be dealing with his own post-Camp issues, as well.
And I dare say the 300 post level will come very quickly for you two.

Calley...when I read that I had the most vivid picture of Rupert and Tarin duking it out for a little bit...then sitting down and having a lovely little heart to heart.
