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.

I would like to nom-inate Cafas again for this month. For his involvement in Dirty Boys His subsequent mourning and obsessive cleaning in Final wishes His shameless sharing of That dance and its dedication to us. His constant planning, scheming and never shutting up about MRO in real life, no matter what we're doing/supposed to be doing. Woot for character planning during study and English periods!

I'd like to nominate Martin He was the first person to RP with me when I came back from my hiatus and I really enjoyed our thread Coming home. Martin has a unique writing style rich with detail and latent imagery. It works perfectly with his power which is also very unique. If you want a funny read check out the Pillow Talk he's having with Calley...
I am going to have to nominate Andrea. Although I have never RP'ed with her, there are a few things I noticed. First off, I enjoy her in the Cbox, even if I lurk most of the time. I also enjoy her character, the green skin and everything that comes with it and her posts in A Spud Out of Water, It's Raining…Women. Her character has the power to turn things to hard stone like material from touch and send people into a catatonic state if they look into her eyes. I find it hard to roleplay a character that cannot touch either, it is most certainly a challenge, but to not touch or ever directly look at someone, now that's a tough hurdle to jump and for that, I applaud her. Plus, she has had a power growth and now has snakes in her hair. A bluish green, hard to touch, snakes in hair, don't make eye contact character is hard to RP and I think Andrea does it quite marvelously, therefor, I nominate Andrea. Good job!
