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.

Who do you think deserves the MotM title for the month of November? Who has gone above and beyond their standard level? Who has tried extra hard to make MRO a welcoming place? Who has impressed you with their excellent story telling this month? Nominate someone today!
Please include a description of why you think they deserve to win and a link to a thread of theirs that you have truly enjoyed.
This is kinda turning into a monthly ritual for me but I swear I cannot help BUT nominate Gina. She is a fabulous writer and pays careful attention to her posts, she is energetic, fun, and just simply awesome. I have a great time reading anything that she writes. I am proud to thread with this character and with this writer. All of Gina's threads are awesome and if you haven't read any, you're missing out. Here are just a couple that are incredibly noteworthy of her talent:
Guard the Pizza Just goes to show you can't leave food out in front of a gargoyle. Help... Sweet sisterly advice. And besides I need to nominate her for this one because of all the extra research she did on the side. Dedication yo! Shhh! Be Vewwy Quiet. I'm Hwunting Dwemons Don't ever put a shovel in her hands. Especially after she's been shot. >.> <.< Aftermath A talented writer can write from many perspectives and this thread just goes to show the truth of that.
I could list many, many, many more but I'd run outta space here on post. LOL. Anyways, good luck Gina!!
but I'd like to nominate the brilliant and talented Kaitlyn. I'm really enjoying reading through Spy Kid and who doesn't enjoy some good old fashioned Granny time or even a little Rat Meat? There are just so many options to choose from!
Kait has recently acquired a second character and I can't wait to see that mime in action! <3
As a writer if I were a drink at a party, I might be a beer, I’ll fill up the plastic red cups, sure we can do a keg stand, I’m everywhere and while I get the job done where drinking is concerned there are drinks better savored.
My nomination is an 1856 vintage of impeccable provenance, a chateau d’yquem signed by count Alexandre Lur Saluces. You will not find him at a frat house, you won’t find him in your parents liquor cabinet that they only break out for special occasions, he is a rare thing, something while tempting to savor, it would be a shame to break the seal and not let this fine wine age a little longer.
His posts are spectacular, it is reasonable to be jealous of his prose, Pick any thread and any post and you will find a rare quality and meticulous effort and a pure satisfaction from what you have read. Who else could I be speaking of, but Zephyr.
