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.

Manipulation. Self-defense. Taking care of oneself. The ability to avoid or escape bad situations. Craftiness. How to be tough. These are things Liz is needing to learn because she's determined that she never wants to be the helpless damsel in distress again. And who could be a better teacher than Syn? It may even be possible to shape Liz towards the ideas of the morally-grey, the downright bad, or even the Order.

Well, lemme see. Liz could always be the almost-victim of a mugging or such. While attempting to stay cool and talk her way out of the situation, she could fail and Syn swoops in to save her at the last moment, causing Liz to seek lessons or such from her.
Or Liz could witness Syn completely redirect a hostile would-be thief who had the nerve to try to rob a clothing store before Syn could make her purchase, leading Liz to ask practically worship Syn's style and wish to be like her.
Or Liz could do a random act of kindness that involves going out of her way for someone (even possibly doing it for Syn) and when Syn happens to see this, she realizes that Liz needs to toughen up and Liz will readily accept.
Or pretty much any type of situation where Liz is in imminent danger and needs saved or some other situation where she would gain cause to look up to Syn and seek guidance from her. Liz has a tendency to fall prey to hero worship.
The only thing (in Syn's eyes) that would cause her to step in and "help" would be if she somehow knew Elizabeth was a mutant. So the only possibility would be the second one where Syn thwarts a robber or something.

Well then, that could work. Liz needs to work on overcoming shyness anyways. Approaching a stranger after such a thing would be another little battle won That is, if you feel up to doing something like that. I can pretty much fit Liz into any scenario.
I'd like to get a fairly fast paced thread (or two) going as I have 58 posts before I can submit my 2nd character. I'd like to do this before I comepletely lose interest in my 2nd.
