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 Wanted to make a sort of plot for Mandain's turning to the dark side. This was my idea:
In the Labs Mandain gets a letter from a mysterious figure that is interested in Horus, and claims he knows more about him and wants to share his knowledge with Mandain. Mandain will have to discuss his absence from the labs with Hunter, and Mandain will go see this mysterious figure. It turns out the mysterious figure isn't here to help Mandain with his unknowing about Horus, but to keep Horus locked away so he can't destroy mankind, which is Horus his goal in life. Mandain will be tortured, etc. The order will start to worry when they haven't seen Horus in a while and go to Hunter who has information, that Mandain is off to see the mysterious figure. The order will find Mandain, free him, and Mandain will join the order. When the order finds Mandain he is full of scars by whips, and he became bitter and full of hatred. Mandain will ofcourse also try to break free, in these series of attempts Mandain will bond close to Horus letting them switch faster and faster between the two of them. Also Mandain will learn his new ability IMP but ill explain more about the IMP later.
Well that's my plan, hope Hunter and the order wanna cooperate. Lemme know
This should probably wait until after the current plot is over. We have a lot of people to save already, so if Mandain went missing, it wouldn't make sense for everyone to go out on a search and rescue mission for one person when there are hundreds of people in the camps that need rescuing.
Actually, if Mandain goes off to meet the mysterious person and gets captured, I think people would just assume that he had been captured by Stalkers and taken to the camps. When they free the camps they would realize that he isn't there, then they could go rescue him. That would be kind of boring waiting that long for you to be rescued, since it will be quite awhile before the camps are freed.
Second, you wouldn't need Hunter's permission to leave the labs. Lots of people have been going in and out. Hunter isn't there at the moment anyway.
What's this about a new ability? Doesn't Mandain/ Horus have quite a few abilities already?
Well, They would know where to go look, since Mandain had gotten the letter and shown it to hunter. And Yes you do need permission to leave the labs as far as I know about, thats what Hades told me. The new power of Mandain had to do with his ion ability, it has been approved by Lady J . IMP = a Ion magnetic pulse with radiant about 20 meter's wide as high. This will no only shut down every technology in that area but also destroy it so it can't be used again. I would like to do this sub plot in this main plot so Mandain can fully join the order and help them further. Also you don't need a lot of people to free Mandain, just a small group.
Nope, no permission needed to leave the Labs. You'd just be given one of those nice watch communicators in case you got in trouble, and I think you'd have some people covertly following you. Amp/Vibe asked that question awhile back, and Hunter answered it.
And I've got to say, Kat sounds right--if Mandain/Horus went missing at this stage, people would assume that he'd just "disappeared" for the same reason as everyone else...
Though at the same time, I suppose I'm not one of the people who'd be concerned with this plot.
Sounds good, but Mandain doens't know Abyss really, and Horus isn't the one getting the letter, and Mandain is gonna keep Horus in the dark about the fact that he's going to meet the Egyptian guy. Ofcourse Horus will see glimpses of what Mandain is seeing at the time, and gain some clue's about what's going on. I could let Horus warn you that something is going and that Mandain got a letter. But more then that Horus would't be able to tell you. If you could find the letter, and then after some day's or so come looking that will be fine , thanks for willing to come looking .
Mandain receives a letter that says a man knows more about Horus and how he came into Mandain and what he's here for etc. Abyss stumbles across the letter, and then confront Mandain about it. At that moment Horus will be in control and try to explain some stuff to you. Up next is that Mandain will make his exit off to meet the man, and that isn't going as planned. This man worships an Egyptian god named Seth (Seth is the one who killed Horus his father, when Horus is grown he is the one that kills Seth, you can look it up at wikipedia ) So this cult worships Seth and gets an ear about that Horus has awaken again. His cult wants to stop Horus from destroying humanity as they were the one that locked Horus away. In this thread Mandain and Horus will learn to cooperate and fast switching form personalities, though if they switch it hurts a lot. Mandain will also Master his power IMP which is explained in one of my earlier posts. Mandain will be scard severe and will lose his good side. He will help Horus achieve his goal with the help of the Order which are the ones that will come to rescue Mandain & Horus. At the end of the thread Mandain will brutally slay the man that captured him and join the Order.
You did great , The chat with Hunter is over, now I'm heading over to Kaz, after his thread it will be linked ( I think) to Hide and Seek and the CaS thread. After that Mandain will go off to see Mason.
