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.

>>"I'll have to come with you some time. I'd like to see all of that."
Shin nodded.
And then nodded. And smirked. At her second comment. "Oh no. Whatever would I do?" Probably kiss her.
Then, there was the third comment. That took him by surprise. But he didn't hesitate for a second in answering it. "Yup." He said. "With some practice, I'm sure. After all, you were able to boss Cafas around alright."

The plushie army, of course, lived in the barracks of Kealey's crafting room. They'd finally freed up their bed from the combined weight of over 100 little plushies (give or take a few). Being able to snuggle and know he was snuggling an amazingly attractive blond, rather than a miniature white tuxedo plush version of himself... was definitely a plus to the new apartment's living arrangements.
Now, they got to add reinforcements to the army. If only one of them had the power to animate those plush toys. That would have been something.
"I don't want to share you with them," He agreed with a curt nod. Shin tossed a finished crane onto the rapidly-forming pile. Which. Um. Was on his bed where he was resting.
"Maybe we should move this pile to the floor before I'm lost in a sea of wings." Shin suggested.

Apparently. Shin didn't want to share his bed space with the cranes and Kealey. Luckily, he suggested that the cranes were the ones that needed to go, and Kealey grinned, tossing the cranes one at a time and counting them as they went. They'd really made some progress towards the 1000.
"Good thing you don't have to."
It was probably time for a break.
The crane Kealey had been folding was moved to the side and she scooted up so she could cuddle right next to Shin without bothering his bruised ribs.
"What would you wish for?" she asked, mostly out of curiosity.

The thought passed through his mind, quick and painful. Shin smiled, ignoring it.
"Nothing." He said. Because he didn't want to ruin the happy mood by thinking about her. "I've got everything I could possibly want right here." Snuggle snuggle.
He certainly didn't need to tell Kealey he would have wished for Ghost's safety. That didn't even need to be said.
