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.

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.
Alright, here's the official Zodiac request thread for encounters with them. I'm going to try and limit them to interacting with two different threads per Zodiac(s) to keep the timeline from going all over the place.
The process, as said before, is simply to request which Zodiac you want, who will be in the thread, who will play the Zodiac(s)/if you need someone to/want me too. If you're making the thread, post the link up here so I can add it to the quick list for people to all enjoy.
Claiming the life of a Zodiac will follow the same process; if you want to be the one to end a certain one, post it up here. I'm probably gonna go first come, first serve here, but if there's a bunch of people who want a certain one, maybe something can be worked out. Anyway...rock and roll folks.
Zodiac Required: (Which Zodiac/Zodiacs you wish to thread with.) Characters in Thread: (Whose in it, IE, the active players) Whose playing the Zodiac: (Who you've asked ahead of time to play the Zodiac(s) Request for me to play the Zodiac?: (Yes or no here)
Edit: Dawned on me earlier but for people with multiple characters, please give someone new a chance to call claims on Zodiacs before taking one with your second...or third...you get the idea. Give everyone a chance right! ^_^
Edit 2.0: After listening to people talk, I'm going to OFFICIALLY make the killing of the Zodiacs take place in the third phase. It makes sense; the opening act, the middle ground that builds the tension and the finale that ends with a bang. I hope everyone understands and respects this choice. Keep at her guys!
Taurus and Capricorn can target Roach and Lenna, two important Order members, on-the-fly. A battle can ensue. No casualties. Though Roach might die and turn into a bug. Maybe later, Lenna will track one of them down. She's already going to help Issie track down her claim.
And here I am, editing in the required information.
Zodiac Required: Capricorn and Taurus. Later, Capricorn (to kill) Characters in Thread: Roach and Lenna. Whose playing the Zodiac: Roach and I. Request for me to play the Zodiac?: No. Roach can control Capricorn.
I'm still pretty interested in having a more personal thread where Libra controls Sylar and uses him as a weapon for some nefarious purpose, not sure who I'd invite to be the third party in this, but it'd be interesting to have Sylar controlled, come into conflict with someone else, but eventually that person helps him overcome the control and turn on Libra. I'd be nice to have Libra written by you Forte, but since you'll be quite busy as well probably if need be with some pointers I could just write it.
This is the request for the wedding thread, though it may take a bit more plotting to get everything sorted! I want it to be prepared like a legitimate wedding.
Zodiac Required: Cancer, Libra Characters in Thread: At the very least, Andrea, Saph Whose playing the Zodiac: You or Myself, maybe both(one each)? Request for me to play the Zodiac?: Sure! It'll be fun!
Also, I would like Saph to claim Libra's life, or freedom in repentance for red wedding.
Thanks to Andrea and Jorge for my sigs! I WABBLE YOUUU! AV Roach~
Zodiac Required: Gemini Male and Female. Characters in Thread: CS and Amelia. Whose playing the Zodiac: You would be preferable. Request for me to play the Zodiac?: Absolutely!
My thought is that maybe the Gemini Twins could target CS because he lived, while he's trying to take down Leo. And they'd just so happen to encounter Ami first. I just want a fight. I don't want a claim on any lives.
First Thread: Roach/Lenna vs Taurus and Capricorn. Approved. Link me either here or via PM when you have the thread up.
Sylar; use the template I gave and I'll add you. Please. ^_^
Second Thread: Saph/Andy/Various vs Cancer/Libra. Approved. If you want to start and link it to me, that would probably be best and then I'll get to replying to it once you feel we've let in the right number of folks.
Third Thread: CS/Amelia vs Geminis. Approved. Again, once its up, let me know and I'll get to it as soon as possible.
Now, as for you request CS, it is approved. HOWEVER, it will have to take place in the third act as I'm guessing its the thread where you off Leo and I'm holding the offings off(hehe) till that act so that everyone gets a chance to rp with the Zodiacs before we start killing them off. Hope that's alright with you.
Third Act, First Thread: CS/Evelyn/Gawain vs Leo. Approved for Phase III.
