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.

Ooooo. That's a really good idea, Sennyo. I do like that switch-up. And it will stop my massive moment of "zomg we have a lot of Mods!" when I look at the active list. lol

Full lizard man! Full lizard man! You've got the forked tongue... let's get some cute little horns, snake skin that sheds, eating once a month, human ears fell off years ago, hair is spiked--literally; and a black/green color scheme.
You know you want to.
You should also smell through your tongue.
And let's get some claws, on hands and feet.
If you go super extreme, it will help you decide where you'd actually like to take him in the current time by showing you what aspects you like to RP about. I also fully encourage putting on things you would never actually do, just because this is the only chance you'll get to do them.
Ooo! And flaps of skin under your arms useful for gliding.
And a neck flap thing that can pop up. Think Jurassic Park.
I assume you'll have a full tail, as well? Right, right?

On my own note, I'll probably be blatantly ignoring threads for the next day or four whilst I finish the latest chapter of my novel, and then laze around staring at it for awhile. The "laze around staring" seems to be an integral part of my writing process.
This affects Calley, Slate, and Rupert, but oddly enough, doesn't affect the account I'm posting this from, Historian. I'll probably keep Modding as usual.
Also, forgive the fact that I'll probably keep rampantly Cbox chatting. It isn't a sign I'll be posting soon, it's just a sign that I'm a bad person.
