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.

I got a job. I'm starting the 7th. Before then, I'm planning to go visit Juli. I'll still be around, but during the visit it's unlikely I'll do much modding or posting.
When I start the job, my posting might be slower. Who knows, though? It could be faster than ever!
This affects Shin, Lenna, Aurum, Ashton, Amelia, and The Blue Badger.

I've been job-searching and helping families, as well as spending quality time with my girlfriend, so if I haven't been posting, that's why. Relatives are also within their last few weeks in America, and we're gearing up for my grandma's other 80th birthday. We had a little reunion to celebrate it before, so this is number 2. Things have been busy!
I'll see about getting active again as soon as I can.
This affects Shin, Lenna, Aurum, Ashton, and Amelia.

In other news, Daydreamer and The Redcrosse Knight are retiring from the moderator team.
We would like to take a minute to thank these two for their dedication to the site, and the help they've given us during their time on the mod team. Thank you both! We love you. We and MRO appreciate everything you've done.
It's possible we may need more help in the near future, so we may call upon some of the current applicants for modship, should the need arise. We were very blessed to have so many qualified people apply!
Have a great May, folks! And as always, if you have any questions, please contact a site moderator.
At Your Service, The MRO Mod Team, Historian, Sophrosyne, Sarasvati, Mister Yuck, Steampunk Sparrow, Mouse Hero, and Blue Badger.
