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.

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.
"Rollie in the Box" is now closed; PM me if you still want in.
All other missions can start at their player's discretions. Side-threads and personal plots, as well. Assume that all communication of orders was done off-screen; all Kabal employees and commissioners also have just enough of Dragon Speak's gems to get them through this plot line (aka, you won't have any to use in threads after this plot line). And remember, only IM and Slate know the truth scope of what we're doing, here.
Tris, I've added you to the Base Smash, so GB won't be all alone.
Coming soon: Rollie-in-the-box first post and starter for the Conference.
Slade: Yep, this is CP! When the Kabal takes over the world, they do it for keeps. I fear Rollie-in-the-box is well on its way, and so is closed. You're up for Base Smash, though! Enjoy!
Circe: Base Smash it is!
*adds you both*
PS--whoever wants to take the initiative on that can start it; just check with everyone else signed up quick to make sure they're good to go, too.
Base Smash is now closed. That sounds like a good crew.
Yeah, Those Who Died is closed. The thread is half finished at this point, and the four of us are currently in the middle of the jungle in Columbia. But, I'm sure that Slate could use another pair of hands with the rebuilding. *wonders if there's going to be an actual thread started for that at some point*
Yep, Rebuilding is getting moved to the next round of missions, since it never actually happened in this one. Those will be posted in the next few days; I'm consolidating second and third round missions together, so that this next set will finish Colombia off. All Kabal members and commissioners can expect a PM when those go up.
Note: These take place in April IC still, so feel free to go back to posting normally in New York with threads set in May.
Sign up for open missions here or through PM. If you have a mission idea for your character, PM me! Last leg of the take-over. Ganbatte, everyone!

**If you aren’t on one of these lists but are interested in getting in on mission, PM me. We’ll talk.
Note: If you don’t think you’ll be able to stay active, are busy in RL, etc, but still want to participate, please PM me for a solo mission. I’ve got a few in the wings that you can do at your own pace.
Missions
Stronghold Pwning (IM, GB, Rollie—closed)
Rebuilding (open to White and Gray Arcs)
[/i] Do you want these children studying in a fun house?[/ul]
A Tragedy at the Capital (closed; Slate, Luna, Lee, Tarin, WereCat)
Tell Me About... the Deer (Giant’s Bane, Slate, closed)
Lights out for Cortez (canceled; lack of interest, change of plans, and Black Arcs missions from First Round still need finishin' )
All right, think I'll close Tragedy at the Capital with Tarin, Lee, WereCat, Luna, Fission, and Slate RPing. That is most assuredly a full crew. I look forward to working with all of you, and shall PM you when I start that up.
Rebuilding will also be starting soon, and is still open. And pretty much will stay open, what with it bein' rather sprawling by nature.
