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.

Iara sat at the empty table with a large mug of green tea and her mp3 player. The light green rhinestone covered ear buds played a mix of neosoul and reggaeton as she tapped the beat on the mug's ceramic handle and flipped through photos of home she had loaded on the machine. The sauna had been a tremendous help in finally ending her shivering but now she wondered what everyone was up to in the house.
It was so different than Miami. The weather, the people, all of it was so fast and changing down there. There was never quiet like this, not on South Beach.
She liked Deathstar and Tricity and pretty much everyone she was introduced to but something was bugging her. The comment Deathstar had made her stomach feel like a slithering pit of snakes. Hunted? Anti-mutant or not, why would anybody want to hunt her?
She realized that she was staring at the handle of the mug and had stopped tapping. Iara studied the small opening the thin ceramic curve made on the cup.
Biting her lip, she slipped three fingers in at first before starting a steady work of her hand. With the work of tiny but strong muscles her hand contracted into a narrower form. Its was as if the bones them selves began to lengthen. Soon her whole hand was through and the handle squeezed tightly at her wrist. The whole process took about two minutes.
Deathstar walks in and sits down with her box of pizza, How its going?... she shooked her hair, and laughed to herself, I see you found the Sauna...Oh!!..Okay!!! she saw her hand the the mug...... interesting!!....so can your whole body do that?/.. she asks trying inquire about her powers....

"Yea. I have the whole serpetine thing on lock-down. I'm only missing fangs..... last time I checked at least." Iara smiled up at her as she began to work her hand out. "So, what have you been up to Deathstar? Oh, and love your highlights."
Thanx, I had them since birth, but let me ask you a question, have you ever hurt anybody with your powers?... she asks while taking a big bite of her pizza slice

"On purpose, yes, but indirectly. I killed a girl's horse by slipping some of my venom into his oats. He died in an hour. It was supposed to be a prank on the country club but I chose the horse. Not on purpose, I've blinded a rapist. It was the first time my poison worked and I was walking home from school when he pulled me into an alley and pushed me against a wall. In fear I tried to scream but a stream venom shot out instead and went right into the guy's eyes. He let me go screamed pretty loud and I ran all the way home. I saw him on a report on the local news and they said that maybe it was a new kind of pepper spray but his corneas were milky white. It still creeps me out."

"The rest is just hard work. Capoeira, ambush tatics, dancing. Oh, and I can fit into small spaces but I think that counts with body stretching." Iara wiggled her fingers with a smile, happy that her hand was free once more.
I don't mean to toot my own horn, but hanging with me, would get yo a whole lot of cool points.. she said with a faint smirk on her face, what do u guys do at your hometown
That seems like my kind of city, why would leave such paradise?... she finished her pizza and threw it on the floor, not caring what anyone thought.....
