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.

Ty chuckled. "I was taught never to keep the cars I steal, because that can and will be a headache to cover up. And...well I can't bring myself to dispose of them. That'd just be a waste. So, I take 'em for a spin, then put 'em back."
He gave a light shrug, still somewhat wary of this guy. What if it was a trap? This guy could very well be trying to get him off guard in order to bust him. Maybe hit him over the head and call the cops or something. Who knew?
Ty had no idea the full extent of what he'd just shared. It was supposed to be a disturbing black-and-white silent movie to deter the would-be-hero. What he didn't know was that Captain Tightpants back there now shared a handfull of Ty's memories--some of which not meant to be shared. Period.
So now, they were running through an alley, trying to take advantage of their lead. Ty looked up, seeing a fire escape. "Go on ahead, I'll be right behind you," he said weakly. "Trust me. You don't wanna be around for--excuse me." With that, Ty opened a nearby trash can and spent a moment with his head in it.
After that, Ty made his way all the way up the fire escape, jumped up to the roof once he reached the top, and lay down. "Hey sis, I need ya to keep watch...make sure he's not coming."

Okay, so from the guy's expressions, Ty could tell he wasn't buying it. "Yes...I am a mutant. Every now and then I catch these...visions. That's what took me so long to get out of the car; I can't exactly...control it," he lied. Well, most of it was a lie. Sort of.
But with the jig seemingly up, Ty actually seemed really compliant. But when he turned around, hands behind his back, the ginger smirked a sinister smirk as he felt the hand on the arm of his jacket. The trap had been sprung, and the guy would spend the next two minutes watching the vision Ty implanted on his jacket.
~The vision itself was as jumbled and racing at Ty's mind was at the time he laid the trap. Ty had tried to keep his focus on things like a running faucet, boiling water, an all day sucker, and ending with a hand giving the finger, all in black-and-white, mere thoughts. But in the middle were scenes in full color. Actual memories. Moving his sister into the mansion, finding his cat in an ally, being face to face with a six foot roach, aaand maybe a bedroom scene or two with Tses.~
Ty didn't know the extent of the memories he'd implanted, but he didn't have full control over his writing yet. But nonetheless, the trap was sprung. "Go!" He shouted before taking off himself, however thanks to the wooziness brought on by the side effect of his new power, he was off to a slow start.

Ty braced himself, preparing for the worst as the guy changed colors and stepped forward. Then he blinked. Did this guy really just ask how he did it? Was this some sort of a trick? Or was the guy just confused?
"Uh...let's just say it's not something I learned overnight," he answered, eyes looking around. "So...weren't you trying to stop me? I mean...why the sudden interest?" He asked as politely as he could, attempting to cover all bases in case this was a trap.

Ty shrugged, reading the man's hand. "Well, I started stealing a few years ago, because I had to. Then, things got better and I didn't need to anymore, but...I couldn't stop. Like it's a part of me now. And the rush that comes with it...I'm addicted to it. Like I said...I don't expect you to understand. It's complicated." He sighed, leaning back against the car. Well, this was...interesting.

Ty backed up when a word appeared on the man's hand. So this guy was a mutant too, great. What was it and random people walking up on Ty's antics lately?
"Look," he whispered, "Maybe I was about to...yeah. But I always give 'em back. I do it for the rush it brings, that overflow of adrenaline. I don't expect you to understand, but realize, if I don't get this one, I'm gonna end up finding another one anyway."

Ty bit his bottom lip as his gloved hands expertly darted over the wires, knowing exactly which ones to connect where and get this baby go--THUNK!
Ty heard a loud clang, which startled him, nearly sending his head through the bottom of the dashboard. Or at least the steering wheel. After the sound of impact, one could distinctly hear the sound of foul language, though muttered, filling the air.
Turning to see someone looking at him, he blinked, turning pink. "Oh, I was looking for my--wait...this isn't my car. I parked mine on the other side..." he lied, maybe the guy would buy it.

Ah, the sun had set, and night had settled over the city. Ty had left the apartment for a usual night on the town, which usually consisted of doing something less than legal, something out-of-the-ordinary happening, and he'd go home and have a story to share with Tses. Good times. Though tonight he just hoped to get a little rush off of a crime or two, then go home. No cops, no intrusions, nothing unforeseen happening, no story to write the girlfriend about. This area of town was secluded enough, with maybe one or two passers-by in the area, one of which Ty's shoulder brushed against before discretely pocketing the man's wallet. Once the area was clear, he saw a car parked outside of a pitch-black building. Nothing special, just your basic four-door-sedan. But a joyride was a joyride. Keyword there being joy. Walking over to the little grey car, he tried the door. No alarm, but it was locked. No keypad either. Chuckling, Ty went on to go about breaking into the car the "old-fashioned way," then crawled inside, surveying his surroundings and quickly getting to work on attempting to hotwire.

*nodnod* This seems like a great start; Paige is kidnapped in order to drag her father out of hiding, Amber comes along for the ride, and stuff goes down. I like!

Okay, Paige's status as far as Order goes is up in the air, as it's being hinted at and explained in a still-ongoing thread with Seyta. But, if we tread lightly, I could probably have Paige kidnapped.
Paige was rich in LA. Her father got this money via less-than-legal means, and was involved with less-than-savory people. I'm currently working on a solo between the father and daughter, also revealing him to be a powerful mutant of some kind.
So, he has enemies. Enemies that would go so far as to kidnap the daughter of a former millionaire...
If you're game. If not, we can go back to the drawing board~

Oooh, sounds like fun.
Ty's cautious, but he's charismatic. And used to plans going to hell at this point. Though, Ty could always follow the footsteps of his mentor and lead people down the not-so-straight-or-narrow...

Judging by a current ongoing thread, Paige is likely going to be Order, and she's sorta...well she's the one where whatever happens to her I just let happen lol
Ty usually ends up having women jump into the car he's trying to hotwire lol, but it's usually stealing cars, picking pockets, that sort of thing.
I really don't have any ideas, so I can just roll with whatever.

Heh, I can work with either of those, actually. Ty's made a thing of dragging people into trouble lately, and Paige is mostly down because she doesn't feel like she's tough enough lately. Then her emotions get all high and she turns into a spork.

Oooh..either of those would be fun. What would Masque think of a lawbreaking, adrenaline-junkie rogue like Ty? Or Amber of an emotionally disturbed spork? lol
