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.

Daisake had Ran across the oceans of Newyork city at Incredible speeds before reaching the mansion. He heard about it from a mutant in Africa when he was traveling. Daisake ran up to a gate with a paper in his hands. It told him what part of Newyork to look in. He folded the paper and put it in his pocket then adjusted his bag in his shoulder, reading the sign ."Xaiver Institute for Gifted Youngers" He said grining. he walked up closer to the gate placing his hand on it. he tryed to open it but it wouldnt move. "Umm Hello??" he yelled from the gate."Well talk about rining the door bell"
Hunter strode towards the gates when he spotted the young man the other side. Must be another new arrival for the mansion, though this one is in better shape than the last one, and didn’t look like he needed to be carried inside.
“Good day sir,” Hunter called out to him, “give us a moment and well open the gates for you.” Turning back to Fiona he said, “I assume that’s alright to let him in, or is there some sort of screening process that they have to go through before you let them in?”
Fiona walked behind Hunter absent-mindedly when she heard a young male voice and then Hunter's own grandiose reply. Quickly, she noticed it was yet another new arrival to the school. Looking him over, she guessed him to be around eighteen, and knew that he could go in the boys dormitories.
"Hi there dear!" she said to him.
Joining Hunter at his side, she opened the gate for the young man. "Nah, they're screened within." Addressing the new arrival, she smiled and waved him over. "Hello there, I'm Fiona. This is Xavier's Sister School for Gifted Youngsters--as I presume you must be."
She made the walk back to the mansion's doors. "Okay, on the first floor is the kitchen, classrooms and such, and the second floor has the bedrooms and infirmary. For your room, go to the left hallway and choose an empty room. You'll know you're in the right place if there are boys everywhere!" she laughed.
"But before you do so, is your mutation dangerous to anyone?" she asked the lad, hoping they weren't.
"Hey, Miss Tipp... Looks like that delicious Fiona and the guy she's always with.. ummmm, OH, Hunter is greeting a newbie at the gate. They're headed for the front doors," Johnathon said to Tricity as she was passing by the security station. She hit him on top of the head with her magazine. "Don't call anyone delicious around me, thank you." She smirked at the young man and turned down the hall to intercept them.
Tricity pulled open the double doors and grabbed a newcomer packet which was always sitting at the table inside the front hall. Hunter, Fiona, and the guest, which she now saw looked to be a teenage boy, were near the steps. "Hi, guys. Bringing in a new friend?"

When the gates opened and daisake was invited in by two others. He didnt say to much because he really didnt know what to expect. and he didnt know if this was the place he heard about, and not another mislead. He was shown around To many things when inside the mansion. he held his bag tight on his shoulder, only because he was a little nervous. Then he heard the question was his powers going to be any harm to others. At the moment he knew he found the right place, he never mentioned having power to anybody yet.
Daisake thought before answering. "Maybe my strength sometimes so i really try avioding hand shakes and what i touch at certain times. but its not really to hard for me to keep it under wraps."
As he answered the question he looked up at some steps he saw a woman come down. "Whoa.." He mutters
Seeing the new arrival in Tricity’s capable hands Hunter turned back towards the limo, though his ears pricked up when he heard of the boy’s super strength. That was something he had to sample, but all in good time. Opening the limo door he motioned Fiona inside.
(OOC: I'm just going to post here to keep from starting a new thread)
As the taxi pulled up to the front gates Lenad got his first real look at the school. Although he had seen photos online, it was more impressive in person. Even more impressive was the limo waiting in front of the gates. Paying the cabbie and grabbing his bags from the trunk, he was met by a face full of dirt as the taxi driver peeled away. Nothing he hadn't experienced before in the desert, but still unpleasant.
Now facing the gates themselves, he noticed they employed some above average security systems. Cameras were placed periodically above the wall and there was a intercom set up on his side of the gate. But for all the security, the gates themselves were at the time open. A finely dressed man was walking out of the gates on the way to the limo, but Lenad didn't feel like bothering him to ask him where to go.
Instead Lenad saw a group of three standing out front of the mansion. Two fine-looking ladies were talking to a boy about his age. And judging by the pack slung over his shoulder, he was also a new arrival. "Looks like I should go talk to them." Readjusting his pack over his shoulder, he grabbed his other two dufflebags and began to walk over the school grounds.
Fiona was about to motion towards the areas when none other than Tricity came down to help.
"Good afternoon, Ms. Tipper! Actually, this is a new arrival, he came in as Mr. Antonescu and I were going to grab lunch." she said, as she followed Hunter.
"Hope everything goes great!" she called, as she noticed yet another new arrival.
She smiled at the newcomer, pointing towards the door where Tricity and the boy were. Turning back to Hunter, she climbed into the limo, taking a seat next to the small bar.
Hunter got in after Fiona. “Maximillian, to Le Bernardin.” As the car pulled away he turned to Fiona, “So tell me,” he asked, “how did you end up at the mansion? Were you sent their by your parents or did you go willingly?”
He kept a firm grip on his emotions, remembering her mentioning of her powers. It was most likely that a dose of her blood would augment his mesmerizing ailities, which could turn out to be quite handy in many situations, and with the scheme he had devised he should be able to get a sample, if not of hers then of some of the many other mutants at the mansion.
(OOC rather than carry on our conversation here could you reply in New York City Fiona?)
"Ok, thanks you two!" she called out to Hunter and Fiona as they left. As she watched them walk away, Tricity noticed another young man heading up toward them with some bags. "Well, it seems we have another one too." She waved her hand over, beckoning the other newcomer toward her. "So, welcome to the mansion. I'm the Headmistress, Tricity or you can call me Delilah, Miss Tipper... whatever. What are your names?"

Daisake shakes his head, bring himself back. "Im Daisake, some people call me Dai. You have A nice name..Well many names as i can tell " Daisake grins. "So can, you really help me control my powers here?I been traveling for a while, and some very long distances to find a place like this. Glad i did now"Dai turns and looks around again.
"Yes, we will try our best to help you control your mutation. Let's go inside." Tricity pushed open the doors again and lead them inside the front hall, handing them each a packet of information. "I need to ask about your mutations. Are they dangerous to yourself or anyone else?"

Daisake follows her into the mansion"Well so far, only thing i need to worry about is my strength, other than that nothing at all...or all that i know of, even though when i was young there was this one time where a fire came out of nowhere in my room" dai says laughing a little. Daisake takes the packet and reads over the front page.
As Lenad was waved over, he hurried his pace just in time to reach the two as the lady introduced herself. He let the other boy introduce himself before telling them his name.
"It's nice to meet you Miss Tricity, and you Daisake. My name is Lenad Tursowe."
Lenad followed Tricity as she lead them inside and grabbed the packet of information as she passed it to him. He poked around inside as much as he could, but it proved to be rather difficult while carrying three bags and walking at the same time. Somehow he managed to hold his two dufflebags in one hand and open part of the packet with the other.
When asked about his power being dangerous, his head perked up. It wasn't something that he thought about much as he tried not to use his power. But now that he thought about it, if he ever lost control, it could prove to be fatal. "My power hasn't proved to be dangerous so far, but it could prove to be a problem in the future as I have little control over it."
Ted, as he again wandered lost through the mansion, ended up in the lobby. There he saw someone talking to what appeared to be two more newcomers, judging by their bags. He decided that the woman was probably the person that newcomers were suppose to speak to, so he went over to introduce himself. "Hi, I'm Ted Thorn. I'm new here, I only arrived a short while ago." He held out his hand to shake, though not entirely sure that he wasn't interrupting something he shouldn't. But, fortune favors the bold, and he'd gone over and started speaking now. So there was no turning back, and besides, he needed to find out more about this place. And he needed to find out who Tricity was (OOC: gotta love the irony, asking Tricity if she knows who Tricity is...).
