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.
I've just realised that I never actually made a formal post about this in here, only discussed in cbox. (oops)
So here we go!
I think this plot could be a lot of fun one way or another. As somebody writing a possible X-man, I think this will create a lot of interesting threads and interactions between the members. It's worth noting that some changes with the X-men were probably coming anyway with new members looking to join and with a big site-wide plot looming.
Serena is certainly opinionated and believes that the X-men can be a lot more than just vigalantes, she has a romanticised image of them being more like symbols for just how good mutants can be, reassuring humans and giving hope to young mutants. She's also not the type to try to get rid of any of the current experienced members, experience is very valuable. Though I and her both are of the opinion that a slight re-structuring is in order one way or another, and this plot could be a great catalyst for that one way or another.
TL;DR this is a very interesting plot, I'm interested to see how the current plot allows for this to change the X-men as a whole and this takeover plot is a potentially really fun part of that.

Next level Ragnarok, coming right up. Activity-wise, as in what players are doing in threads, there probably won't be a lot that changes, but I think we can safely assume that Ragnarok attacks - though semi-regular already - are now being attributed to being responses to anti-mutant protests in the wake of Odessa, which puts them more solidly in the public eye. Once Ambrose steps up to suggest Utopia and form a planning committee and all that, we might even be able to throw the X-Men a bone and maybe have there be suspicions towards Ragnarok for their involvement, which might be another ideological difference the old and new Xs could clash on.
This looks like an interesting plot line, count the newbie in , Spasm happens to be NYPD so would likely be involved (and will probably not be much enamored of Utopia). He would appreciate the help of the X-Men and would likely assist in cooling down any backlash-even though there might be clashes with him if they attack META robots that aren't going rogue.
If this plot is still possible would love to take part as well! I don't have an X-man as of right now but I do have my character interested in coming to join the NYPD ranks here soon (if that's possible). But, she's not above being a vigilante either, going beyond the law if necessary so if we need more peeps to help she's all about it.

If you weren't tagged in my post but are interested in joining, pm either me or Shin about it.
