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.

Your mission, if you choose to accept it (Plot Lottery!)
Your phone vibrates. You pull it from your pocket, glance at the screen. It's not a number you recognize, but the message... the sender knows your name. They know your location.
Your mission, if you choose to accept it...
AKA: I have a hankering for posting, but not a lot of time to write. I propose, therefore, an experiment of the choose-your-own-adventure style. Panu is going to be sending out Ragnarok missions via text to non-Ragnarok members.
Some of these will be benign: go to the animal shelter. There's a monstrous mutt there, the meanest beast you've ever seen. And guess what? It's an animal shifter that got stuck. Good luck earning its trust enough to get it to safety.
Some of them won't be: pick up a rental van and go to the bank. Surprise! You're the get-away driver.
Panu will guest-star in your threads as a series of phone messages that lead you further down the plot!rabbit hole.
Who wants in? Let me know if you have a preference on benign v harmful, or have an idea of where you want things to go. Or just text "Surprise me" to JOUTSEN. Standard messaging rates may apply. <3
I would like to voluntell Juliette and/or Bailey! Both would make for very, very interesting threads, I think! I'd aim for a li'l more than benign, but I'm always up for surprises that can make for exciting (and dangerous) plot twists!
Tossing Amelia onto the list, as Elliott is already Ragnarok and Amelia would probably report it to the police if something seemed illegal. Which is its own kind of fun.
Ohhh I am SO game for this. I am leaning more towards the crazy end of the spectrum cause I like writing my characters getting into trouble! And this just seems like the perfect thing.
Question: Would Levi be allowed to text back and be like 'who is this???' -- cause he totally would if he could.
