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.

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.
Hmm... well he's not quite the run around in the open causing mayhem type of guy (yet, at least), but he is starting to move out into the sun. He's also trying to learn as much about the mutant community in the city as he can (He didn't know there was one until recently), and he's pretty inquisitive. I'm not entirely up to speed on MRO Universe, but would some kind of mutant event/gathering be something that could take place, perhaps a mutant rights rally of some sort, or something of that nature?

Hmmm... *takes a second look at Shade's profile*
A mutant gathering is possible, but would be a pretty large-scale thing to just do spontaneously. Ummm... I'm sure Shane's desire to learn more about the mutant community could be something to go off of, considering that Gina's rather... well, conspicuous
You're right, lets keep the gathering in our back pocket for a future date.
In all honestly, as long as I get out of the alleys, I don't really care what else happens. I feel like Shane spends way too much time in dark places. He'll probably be hanging around the Sanctuary and it's surrounding areas. Is it reasonable to get you there? He'll probably latch on to anyone who's clearly a mutant if he can spot them. Or, if you're down for a slightly creepier option, he could always spot her off screen and more or less be stalking/spying on her when the thread begins. Less confined to one place that way, and he does love being sneaky.

So, in case you all haven't happened to read Gina's latest thread with Vicente, there is a teeny, tiny detail that I should probably let you in on...
Gina got shot.
Now, it's okay, she lived, but such an incident lends itself to a hospital visit. I'm looking at doing a thread that occurs the morning after it all went down... Its purpose would be to establish the extent of her injuries, maybe get a little drama going... Maybe, get her npc family in on the deal.
First matter of business is... Would anyone like to get in on it? Criterion would probably entail knowing Gina, obviously, being related to her either through Xavier's or through the incident. Possible reasons for them to get involved are up you... I expect that there will be some repercussions in the means of disciplinary action, as she did sneak out... Maybe a friend or two to tag along, et cetera...
If there are any interested parties, state which character you may want to use and what purpose they might play in a comment below. If I get enough nibbles to make got a decent thread, spectacular, but if not... Who knows? Maybe I'll have it as a solo, and have her try and keep it a secret? Eh, just theorizing. I would love to hear from you!

Okay, here's what I've come up with, guys-- the meat of the drama and other such stuff entails Gina and NPC's in my mind... Wouldn't make for a fun thread if it were just Agnes and Em sitting there while Gina is confronted by law enforcement, Xavier's headmistress, and possibly her mother... So, I'm thinking, half-solo thread and half-normal thread? And I just bring you guys after all the technical nonsense is through? Or just before, so that Em could help corroborate with Gina's description of Vicente...
Sound good to you, or is there further input/questions? Do you want to be around for the boring technical stuff, or should I stick with the hybrid thread?
Yeah, just tell us via pm or C box or T box when we can come in. Besides, Emerald probably won't be too happy that her new found friend was attacked so it's very possible she may need leave the thread early to go "Hunting."
But she would be more than happy to corroborate the the description.
