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.

Character's real name: Iesland "I" Mujave Codename/Alias: Ganesha
Gender: Male Age: 23 Nationality/Ethnicity: Indian Birthplace: New Delhi Personality: Iesland is incredibly friendly and generous, but is often thought to be dark and brooding because he cannot speak. Having his tongue cut out taught him how brutal the world can be, so he is especially sensitive to other people's pain in that area. He is not telepathic, but is often thought to be so because he is so good at reading emotions. Notes (Hobbies, Phobias, Worries, etc.): Even through the atrocities that occurred to him in India, Iesland remains a stout Hindu.
Allegiance (Good, Bad, or Neutral): Good
Everyday clothing: specially tailored Blue or White Business shirt, with matching tie, black loafers, and black slacks. Uniform (Optional. Required if eventually becoming part of the X-Men): Just black jeans Pajamas: Worn out black jeans, the occasional t-shirt as well.
Hair color and style: Black, buzz cut Eye color: Hazel Height: 5' 6" Build: Heavy-Set
Scars: No tongue, many on his back and shoulders. Tattoos: None Piercings: None
Description of ability(ies): Iesland was born with four arms. He is super-human strong and fast with those arms. Cons (weaknesses) of ability(ies): He has ADHD, OCD, and insomnia as a result as having to control another set of arms. He had his tongue cut out because of his powers. Fighting style (if any): Eskrima.
History of your character: Iesland was born to an Indian cow-herder and an American journalist that fell in love. When he was born he was heralded as an embodiment of Ganesha due to his four arms. He lived a life of un-hindered luxury for fourteen years, and was given all he wanted because he was thought to be Ganesha. There were a few terrorists, however, who thought different. The captured him and his parents and tortured and killed his parents before his eyes to show him how serious they were. They then tortured him in various ways before eventually cutting his tongue out to make him repent his lies. It was at this point a well-wishing mutant rescued him, and payed for it with his life. After Iesland got out of an American foster home, he heard of a home for wayward mutants. After trying in vain to find a job in the business world for five years, he finally decided to go to the X-Mansion. Sample RP: Iesland sighed as, once again, he walked out of a job interview with a rejected resume under his arm. His resume was not the problem. A bachelors degree in business and a minor in art ensures that he is compatible for every job he tries to get. His arms, however, always seem to be the stopper. As he changed into his Chik-Fil-A uniform, he once again wished he had been born a normal child. What had he done in a past life that had earned him this fate? Granted, it was better than his sister's. She became a widow at the age of twelve. "Hiya Frank." "Hi I. No luck?" "No. No luck at all." And as he pulled a couple dozen waffle fries up from the frier, he made his decision. He would leave this dump, and go to the one place that seemed to accept those of his kind. He would go to the X-Mansion. Where did you learn about this site?: Google. : ) Other accounts on MRO: Jaguar, got deleted.
O.K. Just want to thank everyone for their help and input! Heres Shiva (Iesland [FP]) Character's real name: Iesland Mujave Codename/Alias: Shiva
Gender: Male Age: 33 Nationality/Ethnicity: Indian Birthplace: New Dheli Personality: Shiva is insane. Completely, totally, immersively senile. He does not carry a notepad and pencil anymore, and usually comverses through unintellegable grunts and whines. He is still very intellegent, he just makes use of that intellegence in strange ways. He enjoys sabotaging cars and buses, and causes major property damage to public facilities. He also likes hanging dead cats from flagpoles, among other things of the same nature. Notes (Hobbies, Phobias, Worries, ect.): His main hobbies are hanging dead cats from flagpoles, nailing dog legs to house doors, smashing up cars, and beating up old ladies.
Allegiance (Good, Bad, or Neutral): Nuetral, but insane.
Everyday clothing: Black Jeans so torn they are almost shorts, and an old jacket about ten sizes too big that he poked extra holes in for his arms. Uniform (Optional. Required if eventually becoming part of the X-Men): none Pajamas: none
Hair color and style: Black, several feet long and grungy. Eye color: Hazel Height: 5' 6" Build: Heavy-Set
Scars: No tongue, no toes on his left foot, no right pinky finger, half of his right ear is cut off. Tattoos: none Piercings: none
Description of ability(ies): Shiva was born with four arms. Originally those arms were just stronger and faster than normal humans, but now they are fundamentally different. Shiva's arms are now at least double the thickness of a normal human bodybuilders arm, and are extremely veined. They are also tougher than a normal human's arm, and able to withstand a lot more damage. Cons (weaknesses) of ability(ies): The size and location of his arms forces Shiva to walk with a rolling gait. He has OCD, Insomnia, ADHD, and Schizophrenia due to his arms being much harder to control. Fighting style (if any): SMASHY SMASH BOOM BOOM BANG!!! History of your character: Iesland was born to an Indian cow-herder and an American journalist that fell in love. When he was born he was heralded as an embodiment of Ganesha due to his four arms. He lived a life of un-hindered luxury for fourteen years, and was given all he wanted because he was thought to be Ganesha. There were a few terrorists, however, who thought different. They captured him and his parents and tortured and killed his parents before his eyes to show him how serious they were. They then tortured him in various ways before eventually cutting his tongue out to make him repent his lies. It was at this point a well-wishing mutant rescued him, and payed for it with his life. After Iesland got out of an American foster home, he heard of a home for wayward mutants. After trying in vain to find a job in the business world for five years, he finally decided to go to the X-Mansion. He did not get into the mansion at first, because he was too chicken to go into it, but he finally made it inside after making a few friends. He was finally happy for the first time in a long time. For about two years, he lived in the mansion, until his past came back to haunt him. The terrorists found him in America, and, with a group of many anti-mutant supportors, broke into the mansion and took Iesland away. It was then that they set out to finish the work they started so many years ago. After being tortured continuosly for three years, during which his toes, finger, and part of his ear were cut off, Shiva was driven mad. It was then that he broke the bonds holding him, and massacred his torturers, along with many innocent bystanders. For the next five years he wandered the States, doing things that crazy people do. He managed to evade the law through a combination of residual intellegence and randomness that no-one could predict where he could be next. But now, ten years after he entered the mansion, Shiva had drifted back into New York city... Sample RP: "Mhhouuuu. Mhouuuhouuuuu." Shiva had his hand out to the kitten, a small piece of beef jerky in between his fingers. Making meowing noises the best he could, Shiva was inching towards the kitten. When he was finally close enough, he snatched one of his hands out and grabbed the kitten cruelly. Walking down the street to the school, he was wringing the kittin with all four of his hands, and it wasn't long untill it stopped squirming. Satisfied, Shiva reached towards the flagpole, and grabbed it firmly, crinkling the metal a bit. He pulled and pulled, and before long the flagpole bent to the ground. Shiva impaled the kitten onto the flagpole, and then bent it back into place. Hearing a bloodcurdliing scream, he turned around to see an old lady pointing at him, her cane flung into the grass and her butt on the sidewalk. Smiling and humming to himself, Shiva walked slowly forward... Where did you learn about this site?: Google Other accounts on MRO: None
