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.

Maxine is going to be hosting a few “questions from viewers” episodes of her news segment, Equal in Stupidity.
To pit your questions/comments/wild accusations against this young reporter’s wits, “email” her by posting in this thread, or sending me a PM. Please write your questions from your character’s IC perspective, as I’ll be quoting them verbatim.
Shows will start rolling out immediately, once you fine folks provide the fodder.
"Call in" segments are also available upon request--we can either RP the call, or PM the convo back and forth so it can be posted with the rest of the episodes.
Maybe a segment about grocery stores? 'Cuz human grocery store owners are unaware of some of the special dietary needs of potential mutant customers. Like Sebastian for instance. Or non-player mutants who need to eat things like.. I don't know, slugs or leeches or something.

Id like to suggest one or the other hateful call in by the "typical mid-western" or "southern draw" stereotype. hate rants about mutants showing their *odd parts* in public maybe. Roach surely comes to mind as a victim. Or a Gardener with a third eye. Id be happy to pitch convos back and forth with you there Calley.
Or maybe some mutant kids complaining about harrassment in school? Whiney children always bring in a good viewing quote. (In this regard I see potential for a "journalism" thread by the way. One where such children are to be found. And maybe given an incentive to cry on the "telly".

"Dear lady that I have never met before. I was wondering if you had any news about a handsome hero who calls himself the Masochist. I heard that he has done many brave things, and is a very good person. Maybe you could do a piece on how awesome he is.
Thanks. Someone who is definately not the Masochist"
I can't decide if you are more rose, or more thorns, I take a personal interest in your show as you have apparently taken in interest in me and mocked what I do to try to make this world a better place. You have refereed to me as "child porn boy" and quite frankly I think it is harsh. I know that getting nude in the city in an effort to be able to completely utilize my fleshes ability to blend in is a bit extreme, but when you are trying to go up against a less than stable person that is attacking an orphanage, you should take whatever edge you can get.
I appreciate your take on the Claythulu incident on Christmas eve, we certainly care about this city and want to safe and sound and see it prosper.
