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.

Glancing over, Loriauna spotted the man at his motorbike. Waving slightly, unsure of who he was, Loriauna looked him over. Not a bad looking guy, all in all...not really bright though. The smoking showed that. She wodnered if he was a mutant and, if so, what his power was.

Loriauna raised an eyebrow. The man talked rather fast and was pretty talkative for a guy who looked like the silent type. "No thanks." So many questions....she tried to sepaate them all at once. After a few seconds, she just laughed. "Geez, you have a lot of questions. Well, I'm Loriauna. Twenty years old and just wanted to check this place out, personally." Extending her hand for a handshake, she grinned.

"well I had to ask lots of question i didnt know how long it was before they took you back to heaven a beutiful angel like you" Kaine bent down and plunged his hand into shadow and pulled out a rose of solid shadow "for you it will stay for as long as there is light"

Loriauna smirked, laughing slightly. "You should work on your pick-up lines." The tomboy grinned, amused by the guy's antics. Unfortunately, she had lived in New York most of her life, so she wasn't that easy to woo.

"Oh well i tried and failed so whats your power then as you saw i can manipulate shadow" atticus took a swig from his hip flask again and placed it back in the inside pocket of his leather jacket

In response, Kaine's motorbike revved to life and drove over to Loriauna. Leaning on the motorbike, which seemed to purr affectionately when she touched it, she grinned. "I control machines."

She raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on her lips. She reached forward, a slender finger resting beneath his chin. "Nice try, but your lines are still terrible." She patted his cheek in an amused fashion, as one might to a small child, and grinned.

"Maybe some time." Smiling back at him, she then looked to the mansion. "So, what's it like in there? Let me guess...they either want to save the world or condemn it." A smirk on her face, her eyes analyzing the building, she wondered just who this guy thought he was. Sure, he was fairly cute, but he wasn't going to be able to woo her very easily. No man could...she played with them like a cat with mice.
Cassiel emerged from the building, honestly looking the worse for wear. He still looked slightly scorched and singed from the fight with the dragon, not to mention rather tired. He'd refused to let the Doc treat him (since, honestly, he wasn't really in bad shape) hoping to catch up to Tricity, but she'd disappeared before he'd caught up to her. Quite a bit of time later, he still hadn't found her, and had just decided that if she was really going to go talk to Kage like she'd alluded to earlier, she'd have to walk outside sooner or later, so he'd wait outside. Seeing Kaine, the urge hit him.
Rather uncharacteristically, he didn't even probe their thoughts as he walked up to them. "Hey, sorry, do you have a smoke to spare?" He nodded his thanks as Kaine offered him one, then nodded a greeting to both of them as he lit up.
"I remember m-... faces pretty well, I don't think I've seen either of you before. I'm Cassiel," he said as he took a hit. He coughed slightly, a sure sign that this wasn't his first smoke, but it was his first one in a while.

Loriauna nodded in greeting, a small smirk on her face. "I'm Loriauna. Nice to meet ya." Her stormy eyes looked over Cassiel...another smoker. She had a real problem with smoking...messed with her too much. Messed with machinery too...idiots would set cars on fire because of their addictions to cigarretes and the like, accidentally lighting the whole machine ablaze.
Mike definitely did catch that thought, and smirked back at her. "I wouldn't exactly call myself a smoker... more like someone who used to have a lot of bad habits and just had a really, really bad day."
