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.

Individual
Character's full name: Julianne Thomas Alias/ Nickname/ Code name: Squall, she prefers to be called Anne instead of Julianne Gender: Female Age: 19 Birthday: January 21 Nationality/ Ethnicity: African American Birthplace/ Home/ Place of origin: Born and raised in NYC
Appearance
Hair colour and style: Anne's hair is pure stormcloud grey, cut to about waist level, and usually in a single braid. Eyes: Anne's eyes are the same color grey as her hair. Height: 5' even Build: Anne is thin and not very muscular, but her shapely curves are lacking of any fat. Visible mutation: When Anne uses her mutation her eyes become pure stormcould grey, with lighting-yellow flashing through them. Also, her hair, if it is not tightly bound in a braid, continually crackles with static and is uncontrollably frizzy. Scars/ Tattoos/ Piercings: She has matching scars on her wrists and ankles, where the chains rubbed against her, and many remnants of bruises and cuts all over her body. She had her ears pierced, but no longer wears anything in them, so they are most likely closed up now. Other features: N/A
Everyday clothing style: Anne always wears a men's t-shirt that is about four sizes too big, and big baggy jeans. These cover her figure and make her look much less appealing. Uniform: N/A at the moment. Might get one later. Sleepwear: A pink or green nightgown. Miscellaneous clothing: When she wants to dress up (which isn't very often) she wears a nice red or blue dress.
Character
Personality: Anne is a withdrawn, careful person. The openhearted exuberance of her youth is gone, replaced with a wariness and caution that betrays her kind heart. She hasn't spoken to anyone she once knew in months, and wishes only to seperate herself from her past and what happened in it. She is kind enough to anyone she meets, but don't expect her to tell you anything. Hobbies/ Interests: She likes being outside in the rain. Job or part time job and description: She works at a coffee cafe near the empire state building. Fears/ phobias/ concerns: Anne has a very understandable fear and distrust of men. She will barely speak to them at all, and when she does she is very careful and scared, flinching at the slightest movements. Special talents: Anne can sing beautifully, but doesn't know or recognize it.
Morality
Good/ bad/ neutral/ other: Good, Anne is a goody-two-shoes and a kind person at heart.
Mutations
Mutation description: Anne's emotions control the weather. If she's angry, tornadoes might start touching down, or lightning might just strike a little too close for comfort. If she's sad, it might start raining, or sleet might start pouring down. If she's happy, the clouds might go away, or it might start snowing in july. The only weather change she can cause willingly is hail and snow. She can generally make hail the size of baseballs, but once made hail as big as bowling balls. Strengths: The ability is very useful if it's raining, and she's happy, or she wants snow. Hail can be aimed pretty well at any enemies, and it's always fun to cause property damage. Weaknesses: Her moods are always easy to read, due to the weather. Also, as her mood can affect the weather, so can the weather affect her mood. If the larger the hail she makes, the quicker she tires out, and she can only focus on making hail for about fifteen minutes before passing out. The range of her weather-altering powers is about the size of a shopping mall, but she can only make hail within about a forty foot radius.
Fighting Style
Explanation: Anne knows no sort of fighting whatsoever. Pros for fighting style: None Cons for fighting style: She doesn't know how to defend herself at all.

History Of Your Character: Anne was born to an unasssuming single mom living a plush existance due to the large financial empire her father had carved out. Anne wanted for nothing for her entire life, except for friends. At school all of the children avoided her because she had so much money, they thought she was snobbish and mean. Anne would often come home crying, to bury her head in her nanny. Anne's nanny was the closest thing to a mother she ever had, and when she died when Anne was twelve, she was devastated. She didn't talk to anyone for weeks, and when she finally did it was to scream at her councilor. She pulled herself away from all of the other kids, and didn't even try to get friends anymore. Then, one day when she was fourteen, a boy came up to her. His name was James, and he asked if she would like to go to the movies with him. From that point on, they were inseperable. Attached at the hip, the others said. So it went on for five years, until they were going to the same college together. They were watching T.V. in the living room, and he got down on one knee. Just as James was about to propose, SWAT busted in, having tracked her as a mutant. James tried to fight them, and ended up getting killed. Anne grew furious, and for the first time in her life called upon her mutation. She whipped up a hail the size and weight of bowling balls, sending them in through windows to knock out more than half of the trained team before she was knocked unconscous. In the camps the bracelet on her wrist continually shocked her, as her power activated whether she wanted to or not. After the breakout, three of the guards caught her as she escaped with the rest, and took her to their shared apartment in NYC. There they handcuffed both her hands and her feet to the radiator, and brutally raped her almost every day. It wasn't until two weeks ago that she finally escaped, using hail to smash through the wall and radiator. She ran, and found a kind old man who ran a coffee shop...
Roleplay Where did you learn about this site?: found it on Google like a year ago, but wasn't interested all that much in X-men at the time. Now that I am, I joined Do you have any other existing characters, if so who: Nope Sample RP: Anne was in her work uniform, wiping down a table, when the man walked in. He was wearing a business suit, had a briefcase under one arm, and extruded an air of power. Every movement he made signified wealth, and he wasn't too bad a looker either. She turned her eyes away and focused on the table, ignoring his words as he ordered his coffee. The weather outside, however, betrayed her anxiety, as the rain increased from a slight pitter-patter to a thundering roar. She finished the table and was about to turn around and head back to the counter when a hand grabbed her arm. Lightning flashed, and she flinched away from the man. "Woah, hey, I just wanted to talk." He said, holding out his hands. "NO!" Anne screamed, lighting flashing again to punctuate her words and close enought that thunder was right on it's heels. She ran behind the counter and into the back, tears screaming down her face. The man looked at the old man who owned the shop. "She's had a tough time."
Welcome to MRO! Come to think of it, I am surprised we didn't have a weather manipulator... this'll be cool.
