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.

~Well, it can't be all that bad,~ a young teenager thought to himself as he walked down the sidewalk toward the gate. ~They'd put a stop to it if it was.~ Allen Byrd was walking to school for the first time in his life. He was forced to wear a full suit of BDU's for his first day. Once he reached the gates, he buzzed hit the little button that he had been told to hit.
*tricity was walking down the hall when her phone went off, telling her the meeting for a new student was supposed to be now. with perfect timing, johnathon came up to tell her there was a person waiting at the gate. tricity went to the security desk and looking past johnathon's shoulder she could see the perspective student standing near the screen.* "Buzz him in, Johnny." *tricity walked out the front doors, happy to see the sun was back out and then rain had stopped. she greeted the young man as he walked through the gates with her hand extended.* "Hi, nice to meet you."
"Hi," Allen said as he took her hand and shook it. "So, you must be Ms. Tricity?" he asked, not really sure what to expect. He had only been given one name and he hoped that he got it right on the first shot.
"Uh, well...sorta. If you are a student, which I believe in your application you are, you would refer to me as Ms. Tipper. My real name is Delilah Rose Tipper. No worries though. So, I need you to describe your powers to me first off. This is just to make sure you aren't a danger to others and yourself. And if you are, we might have to make certain arrangements for you." *tricity said, explaining the same speech she did to every new student.*
*tricity scanned her documents and saw the explanation as he had just stated, but with a little more depth. she nodded as he spoke.* "Ok, so are you in complete control of yourself while transformed? Do you have human instincts or animal instincts?"
Allen's eyebrows raised a little. ~Umm, I don't know.~ He had never thought about it in that aspect. He could always tell what he was doing and could think and everything. "Umm," he hesitated as he thought. "Well, I guess I have more of animal instincts, but I can still think like myself, I guess."
"Ok, well we need to be sure of things like this, so we'll do some tests in the danger room and keep you in your own room for now. We have a lot of extra rooms and students over 15 have priority to singles. Let's go inside and you can walk around the mansion and get to know your way around. Your room will be on the second floor toward the other boys' dormitories and uh, *she looked at her watch*, dinner will be in about 25 minutes. Ask around if you have questions and here's a map." *she handed him a map of the mansion and gave him a name tag so everyone would know he's a new student. they started walking toward the front double doors.* "Do you have any questions before we part?"
*that was odd for a new student, but she nodded at him and opened the big doors to head inside.* "If you need help, I'll be around the mansion. If anything, we can talk during dinner, ok? I gotta get going and round up the kids. I'll see you soon." *she patted him on the back and hurried down the hallway to make an announcement on the pa for all kids helping with dinner that night to head to the kitchen.*
