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.
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: Goodness, did we just take a moment to reply? That's so unlike you Edith. I must say I am quite taken aback!(8:48a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: This data shows that some of the META seem to randomly drop from the list of available units for dispatch while active out on the field, without being dispatched by the machine itself. I need to know if some sort of hidden coding in the dispatch program itself is making this happen. (8:48a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: Who created this software? (8:48a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: Is this program flawed in a way that would cause regular glitches to occur? Those are my first three questions. (8:49a)
Thanks to Andrea and Jorge for my sigs! I WABBLE YOUUU! AV Roach~
TechnoBabble: NYPD contractors, name are not written on code because this is not third grade elementary assignment, but is code from first launch with updates consistent of subsequent patches, only slight out of date (8:49 a)
TechnoBabble: Glitches are evidence that is malicious intent. If not malicious then why are they still glitch, is regular patches, why are none fix? 99.9999% malicious 0.00001% maybe just too stupid to live but this I doubt because how is person who makes smart enough to create AI but too stupid to stop AI from acting like there is pseudo-random number generator in its head deciding who it will attack today. (8:50 a)
TechnoBabble: You are very much concerned about this. If you are defintely say you are not cop than what do you say you are? (8:50 a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: I can offer you a fake answer chosen by a pseudo-random number generator for $50. (8:50a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: I think it clear I have a stake in this. I went to great lengths to get this data. You, however, have a much bigger stake in this than I ever knew, don't you? How did you know so much about this server at the beginning of our little chat? How did you examine this information so quickly? The hackers I hired at first had to take days combing it over. You recognized it in two minutes and 36 seconds. How? Who are you, Edith? More importantly... Whose side are you on?(8:51a)
Thanks to Andrea and Jorge for my sigs! I WABBLE YOUUU! AV Roach~
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: This is where the conversation gets quite a bit more... serious. (8:53a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: I may have come into possession of the shell and most of the inner workings of a Golem META bot... We were able to mend all of the damage to it, but it's computer systems are... Well, lets just say my stupid hackers could not make heads or tails of them. Could you, Edith? If that were the case, would you be able to make it go somewhere, trigger explosives hidden in it, and then mind your own damned business about it afterward?(8:54a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: This would mean, I assume, that we would have to transport the bot to you somehow... I have a feeling that journey may not be so far. What say you, Edie my girl?(8:54a)
Thanks to Andrea and Jorge for my sigs! I WABBLE YOUUU! AV Roach~
TechnoBabble: Most of inner workings is not all inner workings, I am not electrician. If all systems are work then program is easy, like drawing in finger paint. (8:54 a)
TechnoBabble: Real question is why am I do this for you? (8:54 a)
TechnoBabble: Is also very hard to send to Bolivia, does NYPD have budget for international ship? (8:54 a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: Oh Edith, here I'd thought that we'd started to build a relationship on trust and witty one liners, and yet you still think me to be a law enforcement officer.(8:55a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: You've mentioned you care not for money. Fair enough. Would the combination of facts presented here help? Those robots represent the oppression of a proud people, looking that them makes me want to break things, I would do anything in my power to find a creative way to destroy as many of them as possible, it'll be fun, and I'm asking nicely. Very nicely. (8:56a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: Edith. Please. I mean it, It'll be really fun.(8:56a)
Thanks to Andrea and Jorge for my sigs! I WABBLE YOUUU! AV Roach~
TechnoBabble: What is target? If not funny then I am 100% out, also this is better be actual funny and not funny like friend who makes you watch five videos on their phone because all are 'funny' (8:57 a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: Oh. Right, translation. Look up the difference between fun, and funny. Most people thing blowing things up is fun, see: The Fourth of July. The people who find blowing things up funny are usually idiots.(8:57a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantCockroach: If I could find the location where the META are produced, I would start there, but I will settle for the main storage and maintenance facility for the bots already in service. Barring that, a doughnut factory. I've always wanted to see it rain doughnuts. Bucket list item. (8:58a)
Thanks to Andrea and Jorge for my sigs! I WABBLE YOUUU! AV Roach~
TechnoBabble: Why would I want to blow up META bots they are awesome, is okay to blow up one but blow up many is like go to zoo and pull feathers off rare birds, is destruction of beauty by stupid humans, METAs are so much better (8:58 a)
TechnoBabble: Blow up donuts is also stupid. Only things that survive explosion to rain are pieces of wall and roof, no donuts. Is good mental image like special effect in children's cartoon but real world does not work like this. (8:58 a)
TechnoBabble: Is like you are not even try to make fun (8:58 a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantPhone: Many apologies. I have destroyedmy computer in a frustrated rage. I had to put minutes on a burger phone. (9:00a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantPhone: Burner* (9:00a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantPhone: I suppose I should have assumed the hacker would like the marvelsof technology. (9:01a)
DefinitelyNotAGiantPhone: I was toying around with the idea of destroying something bigger... I would need proof that the META were, indeed, intended to target mutants. Have you ever heard the the song "Murder the government"? (9:02a)
