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've been talking with Abyss and we would like to hear from other members on ideas for the Order's future. We thought it would be better to do it here than to RP another meeting.
I'm still liking the idea of the Order being a self-governing little city all by itself. We could even have some sort of representation in the Senate and House of Representatives. Like not an official representative, but a person that puts pressure on lawmakers to help out mutants.

Just wanted to let all of you know that it is a good possibility I might be a part of the Order during the future plot. If I am I will have been apart of the Order for some time, not just joining as the future plot begins. This will avoid most of the getting to know everyone, etc.

Maybe its silly on my part, but I've always been fond of the Mob Family type scenario. Not necessarily a 'Mutant City' like Shade mentioned, but owning the people in the city. You know, the whole 'we'll protect you if you pay or do us favors, but if not..... *threat dangles*' So it would be like the Order owns the town, as opposed to running it.
And fyi, Vibe won't be part of the Order anymore. She'll be going independant, maybe even living in the Antarctic mutant city. Not 'good' necessarily, but not bad either.
I like the idea of the Order rhaving a whole section of the city, kinda like the slums, no cops will come in there and the few humans who do fear there life. And i was wondering if the order members would have acess to the haywire cure, i was thinking it would be a plot twist if Geo was sneaking syrum to his daughter and sister out in the city, and Dej too if she comes back on the site.

I really like both the Mod idea, and the self running community idea. Either way you go, you have the order running the show. But with the whole community idea it gives the order a great cover for whateva the order has to do to make things happen. If you get my idea. I would love to be the law in this place lol
I'm liking the ideas guys. Having the Order running the city appeals to Syn very much. I don't see why we couldn't also have the all mutant community as well. It might be a seperate element but still under our influence and protection. Afterall, they will be all mutants.

I wouldnt say the city... To have some influance maybe but to run the city that would just be way to politcal for our own good.. But To have our own gated community like we talked about in the past, i think thats the way to go. I gives us Major security, almost like an over sized fortress... And gives us the cover to pretty much do whateva we want. At first it would be a lot of Media, but soon after that dies we can pretty much do what we like.
Was looking over the future plot another time and had an idea. Australian mutants are currently fighting for power over the continent. The Order would probably be helping with that, right? I'm thinking about maybe an assassination or two? Wide scale destruction also works. You know, we shou;d be doing something to help our fellow mutants.
