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.

Attention MROers! The Mod Team has just gained two new members.
The first should come as no surprise: the player of Ghost and Lori. She joined us during last Winter's Registration Act, and quickly became one of our most active members, both IC and in the Cbox. Her wit, level head, and clear dedication to the site are among the reasons she was chosen. Ghost's Mod name will be Sennyo; in kanji that's 仙女, which means fairy, nymph, or elf in Japanese.
The second has only been with us since this Fall, but is quickly proving himself to be as addicted to this site as the best of us. Luke's creativity in directing the plot, talent for creating compromises that leave both sides better off, and eternally welcoming presence in the Cbox speak for themselves. Luke's Mod name will be Thoth, after the Egyptian god of wisdom, mediation, and counseling.
Please give your warmest congratulations and support to Sennyo and Thoth.
