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.

Moines, Iowa but Andy soon moved to a smaller town in Southern Iowa. Within a few years he moved to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia where he currently lives. Nationality: American Ethnicity/ Cultural Heritage: Native American Appearance Andy stands at six feet and four inches tall with long muscular legs and arms covered in darkly tanned skin with black hair over it. He has a broad chest and wide shoulders as well as a finely chiseled facial feature covered in black stubble under a pair of charming but deep thinking brown eyes. His hair hangs down in back to the bottom of his shoulder blades in a braid and is black and thick. He has a medium sized nose and full lips as well as a scar on the side of face just under his right eye. Andy has muscles that show but do not hinder his movement or weigh him down a lot and has little to no fat over that. Hair color and style: Long black hair that hangs to his shoulder blades in a braid Skin Tone: Dark tan Eye Color: Brown Height: 6'4'' Build: Muscular Visible mutation: Scars/ Tattoos/ Piercings: A scar just under his right eye that goes to the right toward his jaw line from a knife when he was younger Other features: Everyday clothing style: Andy wears loose fitting dark blue jeans with a thick leather belt that has a silver dragon skull belt buckle. His shoes are black and red DC skater shoes with white socks. His shirt is a plain black t-shirt covered by a dark brown leather jacket. He has a gold chain necklace and a black volcom hat. Uniform: Sleepwear: Andy normally sleeps after taking off his jacket and shirt while staying in his jeans and shoes in case of a fight. After he wakes up he will just change jeans and clothes after a shower. Miscellaneous clothing: Character Personality: Andy is a very withdrawn person, being unable to form bonds or trust right away, but when he gets to know someone. When that happens then he gets very talkative and enjoys to debate and tries to make people like him. He is someone who can get angry at a moment's notice and fight really well but has learned to control that anger. Actual issues with that are that when he gets angry then he blacks out and forgets what he is doing or even where he is until he is able to calm down. Everything he does when like that is a blank area in his memory and that is very bad. Andy is secretly a romantic person and flirts really well but tries to hide that. Those he trusts and befriends he will fight to save even if it means he dies in the process. Hobbies/ Interests: Reading, UFC (Mixed Martial Arts), Running, Video games, Writing Job or part time job and description: Martial Arts trainer Fears/ phobias/ concerns: Fear of rejection, Fear of heights, Fear of enclosed spaces, Fear of being hurt by those he gets close to Special talents: Swimming, UFC (Jiu Jitsu, Muy Thai, Judo, Tae kwon do), writing, singing Morality Good/ bad/ neutral/ other: Andy is difficult to explain in the fact that he leans more to good but has no respect for the human law enforcement. He disagrees with those mutants who believe that humans are inferior and doesn't enjoy harming a human but if it benefits him then he will take what he needs or break human rules to get what he wants. Mutations Mutation description: Molecular kinesis (sorta): Andy can be standing somewhere doing something and suddenly an attack comes at him that he knows about. Within 10 seconds he can make his molecular structure denser so he can absorb most any attack. The opposite is true in the fact that if he is running from an enemy and turns down a dead end then he can make his molecular structure less dense and phase through objects but once again it takes 10 seconds for him to reach the right molecular structure to move through a solid object. Strengths: Ability to block most any attack and run through solid objects Weaknesses and Limitations: It takes 10 seconds for him to recognize the need and alter his structure which means he has ten seconds of normal molecular structure. He can only stop up to an armor piercing bullet shot from a military rifle. Anything more would be impossible for him to block as it would crush or penetrate as if normal. He can only be in the altered structure for up to a minute which means he had better get out of danger quickly or else. If he is in the middle of a solid object when the time runs out then his molecular structure will be stuck there until he regains consciousness in an hour and can get out right away. Physical Abilities General Physical Capabilities: As a martial arts trainer, Andy is very well built but knows that strength is not everything when speed and flexibility are needed as well. Andy is strong even for normal human standards because he has spent years training. Because of this training he is also good in the stamina area and fast but flexibility is his down fall because of his muscles. Fighting Style: Andy is a very hand-to-hand combat fighter and enjoys the feeling of bones breaking under his fists or feet. If blood doesn't hit him and he doesn't feel his knuckles split then it isn't as fun. Fighting Style Pros/Cons: Pros to this fighting style is he has spent years learning how the body works and can sense what someone will do by their body language but he isn't too good with long range fighting and is in trouble if it is faster than an arrow or he can't see what is going to happen. History Of Your Character Shaelren Andrew Logan, son of Steven Ryan Logan and Mary Alice Logan, was born on December fourth in the year 1994 at the edge of Des. Moines, Iowa. His life was not very good and people certainly didn't envy his childhood but that was unimportant for Andy knew nothing about what was going on. In his early years he grew up being envied for his looks and charm but he was never able to buy things he wanted and got his distrust and disgust for the government from his childhood. Steven and Mary, although loving parents, were never around and when they were all they did was illegal activities that often times had the police at there door and investigations arose but it never mattered for Andy because he was only a little kid. At the age of seven, Andy got into a fight at school with older boys and was cornered just before they pulled a knife on him because he fought back and broke one of their noses. The knife was brought across his face and he was left with a scar that would never get rid of but it did get him one thing he would always be able to use, the right to get martial arts training. When he went home, Andy was confronted by him father who told him he was proud that his son had fought back but he needed to be trained. So he was sent to a UFC gym where he was immediately sent into all of the pre-classes. Andy was ten years old when he got into another fight but this time it was with a boy who had strange powers and it was right after he had transferred to southern Iowa. The boy took a chance and had revealed to Andy that he could shape-shift but Andy was able to see something was strange and so he desperately looked for a way out of the problem. His way out was discovered when the other boy attacked him and instead of the claws ripping through his skin and muscle they stopped. That was all he needed as Andy swung his fist into the boy's chest and sent him flying backward before turning and running. Andy didn't know what was wrong with him so he continued to go to training and kept his secret away from his own family. It was in the middle of training that Andy thought about people being able to run through walls so he jumped at a wall and instead of hitting it he passed through it like a ghost. He was twelve when that happened. Only a year later he was sent to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia to live in the mountains away from people because Andy had started to get into fights and couldn't remember what would happen and the law would get reports about a kid running through walls. It was there that he met several other people like him and he discovered that he was not alone so Andy soon started looking for signs of mutants. The entire time, Andy continued his martial arts training until he was eighteen. At the age of eighteen he was a part of another gym and then heard rumors of the gym going under so he offered to buy the building to train others in there. It took all of the money that Andy had saved up but he was able to get the gym and then start his own martial arts gym. Over the rest of his life there wasn't much to happen while he built up more money and was able to eventually start looking for his own place. Roleplay Where did you learn about this site?: Google Do you have any other characters on MRO, if so who: No Sample RP: Black shadows crawled over the bricks of the school house as the sun sank lower and lower until darkness had fully covered the land like a plague. Yet darkness was not all that was at the school for there was also another thing there, a boy of around fourteen years old who was busy running from one wall to another at a dead sprint. One wall was meant for a jumpkick to a backflip in the air leading to a second wall that he knew where was. In his mind's eye he could see exactly where it was and as he touched the ground he did an inverted somersault through the bricks and ended up on the other side. Already he was better at his molecular abilities but for some reason he felt like it wasn't worth it to be different if he knew nothing about what made him the way he was.
