Hello, MRO

This is one of your friendly neighborhood Plot Moderators. I am looking for some input from the entire site on a couple of ideas for up coming plots. I have included below a list of past plots, current plots, and possibilities for upcoming plots.

The past plots are just for your information, so you can see how the time line has progressed thus far in MRO. Sometimes things that happen in past plots come back to haunt us, like when there are loose ends that haven't quite been tied up.

The ideas for the current time line are intended to lead into some of the possible upcoming plots as well as to get all three factions active again. I've tried to include a little something for everyone, but if you have other ideas that you'd like to do (that would effect everyone on the team) please post them here, and we can see if they will work along with or instead of the ideas listed here.

The possible plots are all still up in the air. Check them out, read the details, see if there is anything you'd like to see added or changed. Get in your opinion about which one you think would work best for the whole site. We'd like plot creation to be a process in which everyone can have a say. Site wide plots involve everyone, so everyone should have a chance to participate in the discussion!

Past Plot: Haywire (mutant) Plot
(FYI, since it provides some background for some of the things that may happen later.)
A young mutant girl named Jack had the unfortunate ability to make other mutants powers' go horribly awry, giving her the nickname Haywire. She also makes humans deathly ill. The Order got their hands on her and also kidnapped several other mutants in order to experiment on them with Haywire's DNA. Iris was one such kidnapee- the Order infected her, then sent her home to the mansion. Eventually The Xmen rescued Jack, but it was a close fight that was almost won by the Order. At least the Order got a consolation prize: a healthy stock of Haywire DNA.

Past Plot: Mutant Registration Act Plot
(Another FYI)
Congress decided to pass a Mutant Registration Act. All mutants had to be registered. Those that were deemed dangerous or refused to register were sent to the mutant concentration camps. Both Xavier's Sister School and the Sanctuary were raided by law enforcement officers and/or Stalker robots. Many mutants from both places were captured and locked up in the camps where they suffered horrible abuse. In the shadows, a resistance formed that planned and executed a mass break out of the New York camp. Now that the Supreme Court has ruled the law unconstitutional, things are returning back to normal, though many mutants still hold a grudge against humanity in general for what they put mutants through.

The Future Plot (Rated E for everyone)
10 years in the future, haywire has already been released as a virus and the world has managed to survive, but things are a bit different. Allegiances have changed, climates have collapsed. Some countries have started seeing the benefit of having mutants around, especially if they can make themselves useful in improving the climate or agriculture and bring relief from famines.

The Current Time Line (Rated E for everyone)
While the Future Plot is running, mutants are recovering from the mutant registration act and things are getting back to normal. The Order is already testing out its Haywire samples...

Possible activities for the current time line

• Kabal mission: spy on the government in order to discover that they are developing their power suppressants into a virus that attacks X-genes and makes them dysfunctional. Dr. Hu is a genius immunobiologist/ viral biologist who would prefer to be working on his project to cure the common cold by fusing it with mutant cells to form a less contagious mutation of the rhinovirus strain, but is being forced to work on this government project instead. (This could lead up to several possible plots, read on.)
  
  
• Kabal/ Order collaboration mission: break into the government facility where Dr. Hu is working in order to obtain a sample of the government's anti-mutant virus so their own scientists can begin working on their own cure. Of course, the Order may also have plans to obtain Dr. Hu. After all, a scientist who knows how to fuse mutant DNA with the common cold virus could come in very handy.
  
  
• X-men spy mission: Find out what happened to the famous Dr. Hu that was recently kidnapped. His disappearance created more headlines than even his work on the mutant fused cold virus that was supposed to be less contagious. Very suspicious...
  
  
• Order (off camera?): Dr. Hu works against his will to fuse the sample of Haywire's DNA that the Order has from the Haywire mutant incident with the good ol' common cold virus. (Does por Dr. Hu ever get to do what he wants to do?)
  
  
• The Kabal (off camera?): begins testing antidotes for the government's anti-mutant virus.
  
  
• Somewhere in here the FP will end. Characters will wake up in the normal time line and remember the FP as if it was a dream. Many details will quickly fade, but some things might be remembered. What if it wasn't really a dream after all? (Rated E for everyone)
  
  
• X-men vs. Order: The Order is determined to release the newly developed contagious Haywire virus. The X-men are determined to stop it. There is bound to be a battle to decide this one. Whilst the X and the O are busy duking it out, it seems someone else has taken an interest in Dr. Hu. He seems to have mysteriously disappeared again.

Possible Plot: Haywire Epidemic Plot (Rated E for everyone)
It all depends on whether the Order or the X-men are successful in the battle over the Haywire Virus. If the X's win, we'll have no need to worry about an epidemic. If the O's win, it could mean that a highly contagious virus that is deadly to humans and causes mutants' powers to run horribly haywire will be released in New York City. It will probably take awhile before things get under control again.

Possible Plot: Power in the Wrong Hands (Rated E for everyone)
See the idea/ planning thread for more information.
In this plot, the Mondragon Labs scientific staff create a serum intended to counteract the government plan to neutralize X-genes using a virus. The serum would create a random mutation in a person whose X-gene is not functioning or not present. In the testing phase, a young teleporter steals the serum and administers it to three random people around the globe.

Unfortunately, there are some unforeseen side effects of the serum: including changes to the brain that cause aggressive behavior and delusions of grandeur. In short, the recipients of the serum end up causing a bit more trouble than the average mutant and the teams can travel around the globe to help deal with them. Or they can stay at home in NYC to deal with the looming problems there.

Possible Plot: Vampires Plot (Rated E for everyone)
Idea/ Planning thread
It seems that poor Dr. Hu's expertise has come in handy once again. He has the knowledge necessary to fuse Hunter's DNA with the HIV virus, which means that vampirism is now contagious to humans and mutants and can be spread through bodily fluids like HIV. A vampire bite that gets a bit of vampire blood in it is the recipe for creating an army of newborn vampires. After being bitten, it takes a few days for the vampire virus to kick in, because the blood veins have to reorganize themselves to absorb oxygen from the stomach rather than the lungs.

Dr. Shaw, one of the former leaders of the Church of Humanity during the Mutant Registration Act, may have a cure for this problem. It seems he has his own mutant DNA sample collection. Apparently vampire blood doesn't get along well with unicorn blood... it makes a great vampire virus vaccine! Vampires recover 99.9% (except for slight breathing problems later on: all that rearranging of breathing systems might leave a slight asthma side effect.)

Please comment below. You input is valuable!

Thanks,
Calliope (player of Katrina and Sebastian)

I like most of them, but I'd definetly like Order vs X-men, I really want Blake to get some fighting chances.
