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.
Gender: Male Age: Unknown Nationality/Ethnicity: Brazilian/Lizardman (for a lack of a better word ) Birthplace: Amazon Jungle Personality: Xiin is rather quiet and reserved. He isolates himself from society as much as he can, due to his mutation. Notes (Hobbies, Phobias, Worries, etc.): Xiin often sneaks up the river at night and into the local town to steal books from the library. He doesn't read them, but he wishes he could. He is also rather wary of fire/explosions. Much of the forest he grew up in was burnt to the ground when he was just a young 'man'.
Allegiance (Good, Bad, or Neutral): Misunderstood aka Bad
Everyday clothing: Xiin is usually clothed only in ragged pants. Uniform: He wears his Kabal uniform made specifically for him by Hunter Antonescu. Pajamas: He sleeps in his everyday clothing.
Hair color and style: He has no hair, but has several small spikes in a row down his skull. Note: Deep Emerald scales cover his entire body; the scales are a lighter green on his chest and a few other spots. Eye color: His eyes are a deep amber color, the eyes are clearly reptillian. Height: He stands rather short at 5'8". Build: His build is slender but tone. He's rather well sculpted since he's has to hunt for his food in the jungle.
Scars: He's got several scars across his chest and back from taking on predators (jaguars and the like) in battle. Tattoos: None Piercings: None
Description of ability(ies): He has heightened senses and strength in addition to his lizard physique. His scales provide a large amount of protection and act like a type of body armor. Cons (weaknesses) of ability(ies): Due to his mutation, he has problems communicating and understanding human reasoning. Fighting style (if any): He fights with quick slashes from the claws on his hands and feet. He also uses his long tail as a powerful weapon. He doesn't usually bite his prey until it is very weak. He's a scrapper.
History of your character: Xiin was born in a little village in the thick of the Amazon Jungle. He was born a normal child, very skilled in hunting and games. As he grew into a young teenager, his eyes began to turn into reptillian-like eyes, thus granting him an exile from his village for being a curse. The mutation continued and he reached his full lizard form that his is today. He has never left the jungle, having built a small home for himself off the river and hunting when he gets hungry. As of late though, several Poachers' as it were, have been hunting a 'Lizard Demon' in the forest... Xiin has become more and more daring with his interactions with people in order to fight off his pursuers.
Sample RP: "Humansss," Xiin hissed softly as he heard heavily weighted boots traverse across the jungle floor. He was hiding in a decomposed log, his body providing natural camoflage from the humans. He heard the faint sound of a rifle being loaded before slipping quietly into the river. He had grown tired of running from these 'savages'. He thought to himself, 'I've done nothing but live... Nothing wrong...' Xiin's thoughts clouded his mind as he continued to swim to the edge of a rather populated city in South America. He slowly pushed himself above the water and onto the barren coastline. He looked up to the city and sighed. "Lizard Demon... thatsss what they call me.. I hatesss that name..." Xiin's breath grew quiet as he slipped into an alleyway of the city, heading to the city's library by instinct.
