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.

Please nominate someone you feel is worthy of winning the title Mutant of the Month for November, explain why you feel they should win, and perhaps include a link or two to some threads they are currently in that have especially impressed you.
While not everyone who is nominated can win, sometimes the nomination itself is what gives people that warm glowing feeling on the inside, show your love for someone by nominating them today! Make your nomination really convincing, and you might earn them the title, too!
(Seconding nominations is not necessary, nor is it necessarily forbidden.)
I would like to nominate Mirror for November's mutant of the month. Mirror has only been here a short while, but during the time they've been around, they've displayed excellent roleplaying skills, tremendous character, and a sense of humor that wins. They haven't won a mutant of the month yet, and they deserve it.

Whilst seconding the vote for Mirror, I would also like to put forward the name of Circe, for either this month (or next depending on further Romanian compaigns): For being the Romanian source, including translations and background knowlege not provided by Wikipedia For the IC death of her bigoted father For sheer stubboness, and a knack for disobedience For her involvement with the Romanian campaign, and Lastly for being, in a word, awesome.
