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.

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.
Update: Ive added the threads that have been put up to date on the first post.
Now, as for the Zodiac threads to take place after the First Act, I require two things of people. 1. To request the use of a certain Zodiac(or Zodiacs) here for everyone to know who's using who. And 2. To make it clear whether or not they are using them for a solo, need me to play the Zodiac or have someone who will take over the role for that Zodiac(Zodiacs). As a note, if anyone wishes to play one but wants to talk a bit more about how they would act, just let me know via PM or messenger. I gave a basic personality idea for each of them and people are welcome to try and expand them off of that if they wish. That was the idea.
That's all. Open thread HOPEFULLY coming today at some point. Ima try my best!
I still like the idea of being controlled by Libra, and having Sylar go on a rampage somewhere. I can probably play Libra as long as I get some pointers on the character first, and then it's a matter of who wants to deal with an angry angry Sylar.
Well Roach, I'll say this; I'll play them if people really want me too, but as I'm not super fast like some people, there will likely be delays if I have too many. Also, I'd rather not have like dozen's of threads that I'm trying to do at once. That'll burn me out fast.
But, it is my plot so I will, if requested, bite the bullet and play them.
@sy: I'll likely play the Zodiacs for the open thread I'm making and make them free after that. And yes, I know Sylar's in to be controlled. I'm tossing that up right at this moment.
Update: The final thread of the first act, the open thread, has just gone up. All those who volunteered to be controlled by Libra, you're up. Raise some chaos boys and girls!
I've been trying to read all of this plot as it unfolds. My character is a criminal psychologist who specializes in mutants and criminal profiling. I'm wondering if there's a way that after a few incidents that the General gets on the local police radar so Lana can be brought in to try and profile him/his mutants to try and predict behaviour and stop it before it happens? Lana wouldn't be fighting etc, but it would make for some interesting segues into her perhaps meeting other mutants that are searching him and the zodiac out. I think it's got some possibilities. Let me know what you think

I could throw Streak into the open thread and possibly meet up with Lana at the station once he sees some similarities between what he's witnessed and the attacks on CS and Isabel.
I'm interested in Sylar being controlled for an Act 2 thread with Libra, let me know when you start plotting what comes after the open thread/act 1 threads.

Once Streak gets to talk to CS and Shin then we can start profiling the attackers and lead up to the general whenever he makes himself known. Forte's ok with it but we'd have to wait if we want to profile the general. Probably not so if we wanted to start with the zodiacs themselves. They could be traced to the general.
