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, then it evolved into a full on laugh as she finished her sentence. That sounded like her, all right. "Maybe. It depends. I'm thinking either something green or with studs on it. Or both. Not Pink."
Ty didn't have a problem at all with Tses's stealing. Why would he? He did the same thing, after all. In fact it was something they did together, and how they met. Though it was true even if she stopped stealing, he wouldn't love her any less.
Leading her outside, he smiled softly as they began walking. "People don't see themselves the way the rest of the world was," he explained.

"Yeah, that works," he answered lightly, calming down. He really needed to learn not to get so worked up over things like this so easily. "I'm just looking for a fingerless glove, how long could that take?" he said jokingly, knowing there were times when he took forever.
"Yeah. Some of the normal stuff is great, I'm just not really all for the really sappy public stuff past holding hands or hugging in public, or all the pink...God I hate pink...." he shuddered, then smiled. "You're pretty just the way you are anyway, you don't need makeup," he said softly with a wink.

Ty pocketed the knife, tossing the stick over his shoulder. "Nice to meet ya. It's actually nice having a quiet conversation, too. Change of pace, ya know?" He leaned back against the tree, looking up at the tiger.
"Where I grew up, there were wooded areas like this everywhere. I practically grew up in the woods, climbing trees, carving stuff, just...being a boy." He chuckled lightly. "But I've been here six years, since discovered my mutation, and I don't really do this much anymore."

Ty looked at her, and he couldn't help but smile. He didn't know why, but it was something about her in that jacket, and the necklace he was sure she never took off. In fact, everything in that room had memory after memory tied to it, some good, some not so good, but each one was a stepping stone to their relationship. He squeezed her hand, stroking it with his thumb gently.
"Well, it's 10:30 now. There's a showing at noon, one at two-thirty, and one at five. Depends on what time you wanna go and what else you wanna do today," he replied, his voice returning to its usual tone.
"I've never been big on, nor celebrated this...holiday..." he said softly as he opened the door and stepped outside into the hall, her hand still in his. "But...this year, I have someone, but I don't wanna do this like everyone else. I want it to be something you'll enjoy, so no pink, no glitter, no ring at the bottom of a champagne glass. Sure, today's a day for couples but..." He kissed her cheek. "We're not exactly your everyday, run of the mill couple. So, if we do this, we do things our way~"

"Cheating, not making crackpot assumptions, whatever you wanna call it~" Ty retorted, almost too happily. Though he nodded at Harlan's assumptions about the male. Until of course, he started elaborating on temporary alliances. It made Ty tense up, as the two men climbed into the car, Ty's mind wandered to the possibilities.
"That won't happen. Tses can fend for herself just fi--" well crap. "What I'm saying is, maybe they hoped to finish this and not meet again, from the looks of things they didn't exactly have good chemistry. And what does ratting the other out matter if we're trying to get them both anyway?" The man countered quickly, hoping the detective didn't catch the first part or make any assumptions.

Ty's fists clenched and unclenched as he looked away from her. He relaxed as he felt her hand in his, but only a little. He was more on edge than usual right now. Maybe it was from being yelled at by some stranger, or from the negative reaction his nice gestures were prone to. Or maybe it was both.
He gave her a weak smile in return, though he had to admit that was kind of cute. And the poke in the side made him jump, widening the smile a little. Briefly releasing her hand, he grabbed the flower and put it in a tall glass of water before coming back and taking her hand again. Ty was starting to wonder why he thought today would be any different, but then just wrote it off to being one of his immature fantasies.
"Well, I guess we'd better get going then," he murmured.

"Not quite. I owe you a date, don't I?" he asked, shrugging his shoulders. "The one present I got you is that pillow, we're going to see a bloody movie, I might go find something besides bandages to put on my left hand, and then we're likely coming back here and I'll cook us dinner."
Ty sighed, rolling his eyes at her attitude. Apparently it was going to be one of those days...perfect. "I wasn't going to, I was just saying..." He took a breath, fighting back the tear that threatened to make its presence known. "Oh, and I got you this...If you want me to leave, then I will..." Reaching into his inside jacket pocket, he pulled out a single rose and lay it on the coffee table.
But it wasn't the traditional valentine's rose. It was black. Beautiful, yet somehow menacing. In Ty's mind, that was Tses all over.

Ty looked at Harlan. "Simple. Neither wanted to abandon their mission. Similar motives gives reason to form a temporary alliance, I guess."
He sighed, leaning against the wall for a second. "It's not stupid, actually. Two robbers, one bank. You're faced with a choice. Abandon what you came for, go home with nothing, or put your differences aside, work together, and get the haul you came for, whatever that may have been? Personally, I think you just have your panties in a bunch because the new guy is out-snooping you." The last comment was added rather dryly.
"Anything that looks like a punch was done by the male, the female popped the boxes open with explosives," he explained, trying to calm down, but starting to panic as he let Tses's power semi-slip. He tensed even more at the mention of the police station.
Great...something told him he really didn't think this through when he applied for this job. Then again, he never really thought this far ahead.

"I kinda had to make noise, because you weren't coming to the door," he teased. "I only use my key when necessary, but...I think when someone yells 'knock if off' followed by a string of less than flattering names, it's time to use the key."
He chuckled at her next comment. "But, a chick flick would make you squirm about as much as me." Considering....oops. "Well, it's a day I've never celebrated before. Technically I'm still not celebrating it. Valentine's Day. Though instead of pink and hearts and gooey romance movies, we're going to do things....well, our way."
He winked, then grinned at her. "Tses I've hinted at much worse than a holiday and didn't get my butt kicked. Actually some of those things I actually got away with~"

The fact that the bird-man was focusing his attention more on Tses made him feel even more jealous than before. He'd always had sort of a protective streak, and that coupled with his Georgia-blood made him even more jealous now, to the point where he felt the little hairs on the back of his neck stand up. In fact, Ty noticed that for the most part, his questions and comments seemed to be getting lost in the wind.
His blood was starting to boil a little, though he tried his best to choke down this jealousy. Reminding himself that Tses chose him after all, and given her personality, there was no way anyone else could muscle in. Besides, he was enough trouble for her, heh.
Then, Ty found himself tensing a little more as they sat down. Okay so maybe that explained Ty's initial bad impression. Politician...Great.
"Mayor, huh?" Ty asked, looking at him. "That could cause quite the controversy. Though I see the significance it would have for a mutant to try for such a position..." He murmured, trying to look on the positive side of things. Sadly, from his knowledge, he felt all politicians were full of it. Airheads who were willing to spin whatever line of BS they had to for a seat of power. But maybe this one was different...
Then again with all the attention he was putting on his girl...one couldn't be too careful.

"I knocked loud enough to get a few choice four-letter words from downstairs," Ty replied, shrugging lightly. "That sentence, you should probably be unsurprised." He winked, looking at her.
"Darn...forgiveness passes would be nice. Then again..." He chuckled, thinking up all sorts of things he'd possibly need a forgiveness pass for. Oh the possibilities. At the chick flick comment, he stood up. "No. Nooo chick flick! God I hate those. I was thinking a horror movie. Besides, those kinda movies should be fairly unpopulated today, considering..."
He smiled lightly, maybe letting it slip about what day it was, but oh well.

"Well, I do enjoy when you sleep on me," he chuckled. "But this should make things at least a little better for you when I'm not around."
Sticking his tongue out at her, he put his hands in his pockets. "I wasn't gonna use the key, but I stood outside knocking for like, ten minutes. And without the key I woulda just used the window, anyway."
Her next comment made him smile. "Mostly B," he said, sitting next to her. "Though if I did something wrong and don't know about it yet, let this and any part of today cover for it?" He winked, smiling mischievously. "Well, I decided today would be as good a day as any to cash in on that date I owe ya. Maybe cruise some stores, catch a movie--Iunno maybe a nice horror or action? Then go home."

"I thought so. She told me about having a friend who resembled a tiger the last time we spoke," he said softly, apparently hoping his charm for [most] animals worked on mutants too. "My name is Ty, and Butterfly's my sister," he explained, leaning back against another tree, looking up at the other mutant.
His face faltered for a second, knowing that he hadn't exactly been the best brother in the world. He was trying his best, but sometimes it didn't work out like that. "I know you're probably wondering, so I'll go ahead and say I'm a mutant too.Though I can't say I expected to see anybody out here. I was just kinda wandering around, relaxing. For once just getting away."
The man seemed very relaxed, then again, Ty'd been eye to eye with a roach that was almost his height. After that, it'd take alot more than just the appearance of a tiger-mutant to freak him out. Though if she showed signs of hostility...then it'd be different.

Ty smiled slightly as she spoke. "Thanks. Sanctuary sounds almost like the place you're describing. It's a place for mutants with nowhere else to stay. Can't say I've met anyone from the mansion so I can't exactly compare. But the Sanctuary has these big, welcoming golden doors, and inside you find pretty much everything you could ask for. A rec room, food, your own room...It's pretty cool."
Ty found himself relaxing again. "Do? I don't know....Wait I have an idea. Did you ever check the bathroom? Some thieves had long since left some abandoned loot in there. I figure since it's just been lying back there forever, we could check it out? And since it's getting dark out there won't be much else I'd like to do, heh."
