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.
MRO is an intermediate to advanced writing level original character, original plot X-Men RPG. We've been open and active since October of 2005. You can play as a mutant, human, or Adapted— one of the rare humans who nullify mutant powers by their very existence. Goodies, baddies, and neutrals are all welcome.

Playby Name: Mila Kunis Is there anything different between the versions of your character that you want to call out?: AV Sarah is a mutant librarian with long hair, with Haven; MRO Sarah is a human artist with a bob cut (though at this point the hair is a little thing), unaffiliated I would like the horizontal split if possible please
I've been meaning to ask for a sig for a bit, and with the AV plot happening it seemed a good time to get one. Their two face claims for Artair and Cait are Seth Green and Felica Day respectively and the colour scheme can be anything really, not too picky. Maybe have Cait seem brighter? As for a quote, I think just their full names would do, especially since rooms limited with two people.
Of course this is only if you have the free time, I'm not rushed for anything. Just have no artistic skill.
Playby Name: Indiana Evans Is there anything different between the versions of your character that you want to call out?: Alice is a lot more angry and emotional in general, if you want an easy way to distinguish the backgrounds, they could just be darker for her.
I would deeply appreciate a sit for Gina and/or Chase. I understand that there's a fair deal of photomanip that goes into Gina/Khalil (grey/red skin tone, Khalil has amber eyes, horns...) so thank you thank you to the ambitious soul who tries.
GINA Playby Name: Katie Melua (Gina) and Willy Cartier (Khalil)
2 different URLs for images you like: I have a few each that I like but if you find something else that moves you go for it.
Gina #1, Gina #2, and (perhaps my favorite) Gina #3. If you could try and make her skin look grey I'd really appreciate that.
As for Khalil, Megandy very helpfully fixed one photo already (because she's the best) so if you'd like to use that, the link is here. Please be advised, it's photobucket and loads slowly. This is what I would ask for his color scheme. Other images I like, if you'd like to just do it yourself, include One, Two , or Three.
...i know that's way more than necessary but I just wanted to be super thorough.
Is there anything different between the versions of your character that you want to call out?: Gina is sweet and loving and bright while Khalil is a fire-manipulating, narcissistic devil. If possible, please reflect this in the color schemes?
Type of Sig? Skinny, please. Then we can avoid having to add horns or that sort of thing. (Strategic cropping and all that...)

MRO!Cafas: Jared Padalecki (of course)

2 different URLs for images you like:
Sorry for not choosing just two, but I thought I'd give you a few and hope two jumped out at you, or inspired you or something. I'm happy with any of the below listed photos.
MRO!Cafas (Still rocking the pink[ermint] hair, now with grey eyes!)
Is there anything different between the versions of your character that you want to call out?
I think the loving protector vs the narcissistic playboy is a good angle, maybe with something power related thrown in. I think I want a sort of lighting blue for AV!Caf but I'm flexible, whereas I have no idea what works best for old Pinky, but assume neutral tones? I'm also feeling a fade rather than harsh transition. However (and this is important so pay attention) I am not very artistically inclined, and I trust your judgement over mine. Do what feels right, I just wanted to give you a place to start.
Under-over / Side-by-side:
I'm leaning towards side by side, but if you get an idea for under over, I'm equally happy with that. I'm sorry for not being useful, if you do pick it up feel free to prod me into an answer with whatever means you have available to you.
