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.

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.
So, back after a long absence, but the board has changed (wow!). So much so, I thought I was on a new board and started drawing up a character before I found Claire (scissors ) and figured out my login!
Anyways, my avatar isn't displaying. I went into profile and 'use this pic' is selected and she shows there, but not when I post. Help?
I'm relatively new, but welcome back! Thanks for hopping into my open thread.
Anyway, to answer your question (because I had the same question when I first joined), follow the following steps:
1) Go to "Profile" 2) Go to "Edit" 3) Go to "Personal Information" (the little person standing on a teleportation disc) 4) Go to "Cover Image" and insert the link of your preferred avatar or avatars *OPTIONAL* 5) To generate a link that allows you to have multiple avatars (rotating avatars), register an account at www.randimg.net/
A useful read for you might be the Returner's Quickstart, and if you have any further questions on how to navigate the site redesign, we have a guide for that too. Feel free to PM or hop into the chat box if you have any further questions. Glad to see you back!
