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.

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.
I'm planning on starting a thread to follow up some solo plots I've been working on the last few weeks. In a nutshell, Shane is very angry with himself, and I plan to have him take it out on strangers.
What I need from you guys is someone(s) to either be the brunt of his tantrum, leave that role up to an NPC while you defend them, or encourage Shane's behavior. I'm flexible with where the thread goes, I just have a pretty solid idea of how I want to start it. I'm open to any suggestions you may have though, so please toss them my way!

Ooooo, sounds interesting!
Well Akshay needs to get into more trouble. He is going to be taking his hand at vigilantism pretty soon so either he can be the brunt of Shane's tantrum or he can try to protect and NPC, whichever you like!! This would be a good way for him to make that final push to start wearing pajamas and leaping off rooftops.

If Akshay wants to be the victim of the tantrum, I'm trying to guide Sky in a more heroic direction so she'd be happy to be a hero and try to save him.
I like that combo of Akshay/Victim and Sky/Hero. It's probably be setting it later in the night, so is there any place in particular he'd be likely to be coming home from or going to? (not sure where to set it yet).

LOL *has an idea* Akshay could be coming home from the midnight showing of Action Squad Zero. He could either be in costume or just geeked out in comic shirt, jacket, and jeans. He would definitely be coming home late from that.

Skydancer is obsessive about training, especially now that she's working on becoming a professional circus acrobat. She could certainly be coming home late as well from a late night of training at the circus facilities, since she doesn't yet know about the Danger Room at The Mansion.
Movie opening was actually what I was picturing when you first posted. I like that idea quite a bit. Late night practice sounds good too, Sky. I'll type something up to start us off asap. PM you when it's up!
