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.

Alejandro seemed very excited about the job offer. Honestly, Sveta did not thing it would be that easy, but he looked about ready to move into the office right away. He offered a hand; she paused for a moment.
"Sure, why not."
He was going to experience her power boost sooner or later anyway. At worst, the birds were gonna get the zoomies.
>>"I'm not sure if you've paid attention to my Youtube and Instagram, but my birds already have a following. What would you say I ought to do with my social media presence, now that I will soon be affiliated with Haven and its functions. On one hand, the publicity is something I can handle, but I would like to expand the wings of what I have already begun and revamp the social-page for Haven. Not to be rude or anything, but Haven's social media presence is rather... lacking."
Sveta took a look at the photos on the phone. They were... likable. And apparently well liked. Sveta was not very well versed in social media (she generally tried to stay well away from it), but she could tell Alejandro was going to be a good choice as a face for Haven.
"You are going to have to talk to our PR department about that. But I'm sure they will be happy to work with you. And Legal can figure out how your own social media will work with Haven's." Delegate. That was the most important skill of a leader, at least in Sveta's book. "And HR will get the paperwork to you when you are ready. I'm assuming you will have to give two weeks' notice? We would like to start working with you as soon as possible."

If it seemed that Andro was overeager to begin, the possibility that he would be a part of Haven thrilled him so much that he had forgotten he still technically had a job at the Wildlife Conversation Society. Now all the steps he had to go through rushed through his miind. All the people he had to tell. Angie, his co-worker, technically shared the position he had, which would make the transition out of the job much easier. Angie could hold down the fort on the research whilst the WCS focused on hiring a new recruit. Angie led the way on the experiments anyway, Andro had always felt the right-hand man. She may even enjoy being alone on the project more than them having to share the information with another human being. Or, rather, she'd have to get used to sticking it through with him because of the proposed conjoined effort he was going to deliver to the company once he was secure with Haven. The format would be different, but the research would definitely remain on a similar trajectory.
As soon as he shook hands with Svetlana, he immediately remembered her ability, and a sudden surge of energy shot through him, so much so that he began to cause them both to float. The feathers on his forearms and on his chest began to quiver. They did not make it a couple inches off the ground until he let go and set them back on solid ground. Andro made sure to keep a straight face on, pretending that nothing had just happened. Meanwhile, his birds began to spin around in circles around the top of his head, like in the cartoons when a character bumps his head on a hard surface and birds zoom around their noggin.
>>"And HR will get the paperwork to you when you are ready. I'm assuming you will have to give two weeks' notice? We would like to start working with you as soon as possible."
"Oh yes. I will be in contact with my supervisors, of all would be quite reasonable. They are all aware of why I came here today anyway and would be thrilled to hear this news. I can imagine that even with my two weeks' notice, I should be able to make my way over here to continue conversation with your people on how best to proceed." He straightened the front of his suit and placed all his files back into his briefcase, hiding his overwhelming excitement through the dimples forming on his smirking cheeks.
