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.

Tonight was going to go great; or so Jay hoped, anyway. Last time they were in his apartment with music....well, it ended well, but there was a slight hiccup. Now, though, Jay had cleaned his apartment, so there'd be no more awkward situations.
As it stood, he was wearing his basic tee shirt and jeans, bare foot, and his new black bass, which was Zelda's Christmas present to him, on his lap. His fingers danced slowly and rhythmically, plucking out the most beautiful backing tone. He favored the high end for this song, and really, the song itself was for her. It took him awhile, but he wrote it himself. For her.
Though he'd never say it, he loved Zelda; she meant the world to him. He still wasn't sure what to do with this information, but since they'd become official, he hadn't had sex with anyone but her, so he guessed that was something special, right?
Looking over at her as the song drew to a close, he gave her a smile. "So...what'd you think?" he asked after a moment.

Jay nodded even though his eyes were closed and he found reality slowly drifting away. He loved what they had going on, and to be honest, it was nice having another warm body in the bed next to him. Especially hers. He returned the quick kiss, but after that, he was out like a light.
He curled up as he snored lightly, as peaceful as he could possibly be. He didn't know if it was just Lee, or if her power had something to do with it, but around her, he had no problems getting to sleep. Before, he'd struggled with insomnia, but now...it was next to nonexistent. But that was just one more thing he liked about her.

He smiled as her hand ran through his hair. He'd never really imagined he'd be involved in something regular like this, but...he had to admit it was nice. As his eyes drifted closed, he heard Lee's voice piercing through the silence, and it made him smile again.
"Honestly? I think I'm done for awhile..." he murmured with a yawn as his eyes drifted closed, his breathing steadying as he snuggled closer to her.

Finding a spot behind a dumpster, Jay shifted back into his human form and then got dressed with a speed and an expertise that only came with something like the downside of his mutation. Pulling on his black jacket, he made his way out of the alley, sweat pouring from his brow; all the shifting and running had really taken it out of him. That and the overwhelming taste--pun intended--of defeat didn't make things any better.
He made his way slowly out of the alley and back into the street, the aftertaste of...whatever that was....still lingering on his tongue. It was actually enough to quell his appetite for awhile, anyway.
Finally, he made his way back to his failed sidekick. "Well....that didn't go as planned..." he grumbled as he took his bass back, slightly winded from the ordeal. Hey, at least he got to try out a new shift.

Meanwhile, Jason wasn't going to be moving for awhile. He had a smile plastered on his face as his eyes closed, slight little shudders fluttering through his body at every light touch. He was almost in disbelief at how amazing he and Lee had it. Sure they hadn't been dating long; hell, they didn't even know how to date, but yet they were trying. And doing a damn good job.
He snuggled closer to her, not opening his eyes as he enjoyed the closeness, her body close to his, his racing heart starting to slow. This was perfect.

He leaned into her as she sat on his lap, deepening the kiss a little as his hands trailed up and down her back. Each time they were together was even more special; he'd never really gotten the chance to know someone like this, and he had to say this was much better than the one night stand lifestyle that he was convinced had chosen him. But no. Instead, they'd chosen each other.
And...he was happy with this. With her. Putting his hands behind her shoulders, he leaned back on the bed, his heart fluttering a little.

He slid over so she could lay next to him, which was next to impossible on his little couch, but they made it work. He looked back into her eyes after the kiss, that usual mischievous smirk on his face. "Oh, you know exactly what the plan was...." he murmured, his hand tangling in her hair again.
He looked at her for a long moment, taking in her expression and every detail on her face. She really was perfect for him, and he planned to do whatever he needed to ensure that things stayed that way. He closed the gap between their lips once more, with more fervor as his other arm wrapped around her.

He chuckled at her response, pressing into her a little as his other hand ran through her hair. She really was something special, though he really didn't know why she made him feel this way. He'd fallen head over heels for her from the time she'd nearly spilled her cocoa on him, and now he'd given up his free, one-night-stand filled lifestyle just to have her be a regular part of it. And...he was okay with that.
He shuddered at her hands on his back as he began working to slide the dress down, trying his best to do so without breaking the kiss, though he knew they were going to have to eventually. His hand tangled in her hair, pulling gently as he pulled away from the kiss only to plant little kisses down her jawbone, to her neck.

He smiled when he heard her say they could make them work. It made his heart flutter a bit in his chest, and for a moment he wondered what the hell was going on. Was this...love? Probably. He was head over heels for her, and while he would admit that, and that he cared deeply for her, he wasn't about to go tossing around the "L" word. He had a feeling she knew, and he was sure she felt the same, and that was good enough for them, right? Besides, that word tended to make things all....weird.
They were perfect for each other. Like two sides of the same messed up coin. He sat up, re-positioning himself so they could look at each other eye to eye. "Your...car?" he asked with a smile. "Yes I do. It's cozy, perfect fit, and I really enjoy riding in it," he said with a slight smirk before wrapping his arms around her and pulling her close to him as he kissed her passionately, one hand moving towards the zipper on the back of her dress and sliding it down; not necessarily hasty about it, but he was quite...eager.

He smiled sliding off of the counter, and stumbling just a little. Truth be told, while his smell and hearing were off the charts, his eyesight without his glasses was....bad. With one hand, he reached behind him, fumbling for his glasses and putting them on once he finally found them. Then, he took her hand, his other hand working so that he was almost seamlessly stepping out of his jeans as he walked.
Once they got to the bed, he sat down, pulling her into another kiss as his glasses made their way to the night stand.

He breathed softly as he felt her hands in his hair, and he leaned into her as his hands slid down her back, to the tail of her tee shirt. Then, he pulled back so he could slide it over her head and let it drop to the floor before wrapping his arms around her again. He gave a slight shudder.
After a moment, he pulled away, smiling lightly before kissing her again. He would have led her to the bed at this point, but he didn't feel like putting his glasses back on. And on that note, blindly stumbling about the apartment was probably a mood killer. So for now, he just stayed where he was on the counter.

"Only if you're the rope..." he whispered softly against her lips as he felt her standing up to better return his affection. One hand went to remove his glasses, setting them on the counter, out of the way, and then both arms wrapped around her. His breath caught in his throat as his heart began to speed up.
Pulling back, he looked her in the eyes with a by now all-too-familiar look, a smirk on his face. But instead of moving to the bed, like usual, he merely shrugged, leaning in to kiss her cheek, then trail little kisses down her neck before letting their lips meet again as he shuddered lightly.

He smirked slightly across the counter; honestly he kind of liked when she played this game. It made things fun, and showed a more...playful side. "Not quite, but there may be some...jumping...involved," he said with a sly grin as he moved to continue--teasingly--cleaning up around the kitchen. He really did enjoy this time together, and was glad they were able to do things beyond what they were used to. But...sometimes it was good to go back to what you know.
After a few moments, he walked back to the counter, but instead of walking around, he just hopped up onto it, sliding so he was sitting on the counter sort of in front of her. Then, he leaned forward, giving her a passionate kiss, his hands staying on the counter to keep his balance.

"Well, yeah, it helps. And today was planned. Originally, anyway. Even if it did kind of get derailed for a moment there." He gave a slight shrug. "Well, to me it is," he said slyly, giving her a wink. Once had his plate clean, he went ahead and started packing away what leftover Mozzarella sticks and put them in the fridge before washing what dishes were left and putting a lid on the pot of grease.
Then, when her plate was clean, he made quick work of that too. Once finished, he walked over to her, the counter between them, and he leaned across. "You mean you haven't figured it out yet?" he teased, leaning across the counter to let his lips lightly brush hers.

He shrugged with a slight laugh of his own. "Well, I think we're pretty good at playing it by ear. Sort of figuring it out as we go is working so far, right?" he said as he finished his plate and pushed it back before going back to his beer. This time, she seemed to notice his wink, and from the look on her face, she was toying with him.
He smirked as he leaned in a little. "Oh, I'd like to think it's better than cheesecake," he said, leaning back teasingly instead of closing the gap like he normally would. Then, he disposed of his empty beer bottle and put his dishes in the sink. From the corner of his eye, he watched her, waiting for any sort of reaction.
