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.

Turning back to Voltaire with a firm 'changing the subject' air, she adds "Regardless… so, now that you’re here, any thoughts on what you want to do? Just hiding out from the law, or joining in on the Big Raid Any Day Now, or something else?"
"Both actually." He replied. "It wasn't exactly safe for people who got uncontrolleble powers anymore." he leaned back on his chair. "I am actually joining the big raid to find out if i am indeed stronger then a stalker bot, that and to help out ofcourse." He sat back straight up.
"I need to check on something. If you need me you know how to get ahold of me." As she finished her sentence Syn flashed her phone to them then left the canteen.
"Leaving so soon." Voltaire said with sarcasm. "I thought you where going to have some fun."
> “I am actually joining the big raid to find out if I am indeed stronger then a stalker bot, that and to help out of course.”
Sonya/Teresa nods slowly, impressed. "Well, I admire your courage, at least. I don’t mind admitting those things scare the #!@$!@ out of me. Have you seen one in action yet?"
She does her best to ignore his sniping at Syn as she leaves, but remains curious as to the backstory. "So what’s the deal with the two of you, anyway?"
“Those things are beasts and they work in numbers, they are programmed well for what they do, I think one on one, most are probably not going to do too well against them much less with the numbers in their favor, I don’t think that should be a problem at the raid though.” He finished with a shrug.
"I like the challenge, and i don't like sitting around when others of our kind have to sit in concentrations camps for who they are." he said. "But we will find out how we are matched up against each other when we start the raid."
She does her best to ignore his sniping at Syn as she leaves, but remains curious as to the backstory. "So what’s the deal with the two of you, anyway?"
"Well all i can say is: That i don't like people who try to manipulate others." He replied. "She seems to be naturly good at it and she made some remarks that didn't fall to well with me."
> “Those things are beasts and they work in numbers, they are programmed well for what they do, I think one on one, most are probably not going to do too well against them much less with the numbers in their favor, I don’t think that should be a problem at the raid though.”
Sonya nods… from what she’s seen of the Stalkers in action, Abyss himself could probably take one on, but other than him she’s not sure she’s met a mutant who could. Certainly, she herself wouldn’t even slow one down.
> "I don't like people who try to manipulate others. She seems to be naturally good at it and she made some remarks that didn't fall too well with me."
"Mm," she mms noncommittally. She’d had the impression there was more of a personal grudge going on between them, but she can see where it wouldn’t necessarily take long for them to prickle at each other.
Privately, she sympathizes with Voltaire… but she’s not prepared to criticize Syn in front of her brother, so she keeps her private thoughts to herself.
"Gotcha. Well… you do get used to it, after a while. Anyway, it sounds like you’re looking forward to the raid, huh? I have to admit, I’m kinda worried about it myself."
