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 has contributed the most to MRO over the past month through their high quality posts, their supreme dedication, their amazing helpfulness, their positive attitude, or, in short, their utter awesomeness?
Write a description of why you think they should win, and include a link or two that helps show how amazing they have been recently.
I've only just returned so my nomination is a wee bit biased but I wanna nominate Sebby. Reading all of the posts leading up to the plot really blew my mind and I think there's a lot of effort there in creating and managing a plot so all of us writers can be included and have fun. The posts are seriously interesting- I feel like I'm reading an actual book. And Sebby's evolution through the threads is something else!
I cast my nomination for Lumen. Newly returned, Lumen has burst onto the scene with the same high quality posts that were the hallmark of her previous characters. Some of the threads that have already shown her impressive works are...
Illuminating After being in NY a few days Lumen meets up with her NYPD contact, Detective Jorge. He's the man they sent to scope her out as a consultant on the Unicorn Man/MIA Kids/M case. Lumen passes the test with flying colours securing herself a place in the long line up of people wanting to solve this case.
Human, Memories, & Pain While finishing up a job Lumen happens to me in the wrong place at the wrong time when a mutant comes falling from the sky only to crash into the car next to her...
A Place Of Refuge A date night leads to attempted murder, a burning church, and a resurrected friend.
Is pretty obvious for me. Katrina/Sebastian should be nominated. If you have any doubt you can just read some of her Oracle threads. They are all awesome. Every thread is different in its own way, but they are all full of quality writting. (The ones Kat/Sebby are in, and all the other thread) I love how she managed all the NPCs in the plot, the action move smooth and every step is coldly planned to bring us a magnificent plot to jump in. Again. Quality writting, lots of memorable moments, lots of fun.
