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.

Please nominate the person you think should win for this month! Give us some links and or some reasons why! Last month's winner was Lori! Yay. Poll will go up on the 1st.
I'd like to nominate Giant's Bane. His threads are fun to read, and he's got a lot of personality behind his swagger. Some notable current threads include `Apple a Day`, and `One fish, Two fish`. I think he deserves reccognition for being a lovable oaf.

I'd like to nominate Meld. Very interesting how she's been playing out as I've seen her as killer as Martyr to more kind hearted as Mettaliar, seeing his various sides and liking all of it. Threads include "Getting to Know the Enemy," "When Actions Come Back to Bite You," and "Contemplations and Motivations."

Kealey was a great runner up last month and I think she should go up for nomination once again this month. She's an awesome character written by an equally awesome writer!
I'd like to Nominate Aura. I had the chance to RP with her, and she's amazing. I also read her Solo (I didn't find the Link) and a few other Must Reads. All and all, she deserves the title of MoTM! <3
