AN ORIGINAL CHARACTER, ORIGINAL PLOT X-MEN RPG

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.

It was the night before...
... well, scratch that, it was several nights after Christmas. A few, at least. But the cookies were still there, as was the rat poison.
The silent shadow who creeped in through the mirror shook his head in silent disbelief.

The next morning, there were definite clues around the apartment saying a very late (and quite underqualified) Santa had visited the naughty boy/man/thing who lived there.

Clue no. 1: the rat poison was still there, but the bow was gone, and there was a note pinned on the top: Don't leave this thing out, it's dangerous and it might get into your food. Any food.

Clue no. 2: the cookies were gone too.

Clue no. 3: Princess was sleeping soundly with her four paws in the air; closer inspecion would reveal that she was not dead, merely fed to content doggy sleep with a generous amount of doggy treats. A very generous amount.

Clue no. 4: The kitchen and living room were both decorated with cheerfully multicolored Christmas ornaments made of paper, glitter and other disgustingly shiny materials. Obviously home-made.

Clue no. 5: There was a gift-wrapped box under the small Christmas tree, which did not seem to be ticking, not even if one listened very closely for a very long time. When opened, it revealed it's content to be a pair of handcuffs. Pink and fluffy.

Also, there was a piece of paper pinned to the bathroom mirror.

Merry Christmas, Rupert.
See you around soon!

Complete with a smiley.
