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.

“that’s what I was talking about, if someone sees your eyes and tries to hurt you, even if you have nothing up your sleeve for now, those wonderful eyes of yours are enough to stop most. For instance, you could calmly state and detail the fact that your power is lethal, you have the ability to turn organic material into dust and how you’d hate to see them waste their life on bothering you. It’s a lie, at least as far as I know, but those eyes of yours will give them pause for thought. But that is just until we figure out what you will really be able to do. And yeah, I can teach you how to be dangerous and how to defend yourself. They both come in handy sometimes. if nothing else they were working on something that jump started x genes. She might appreciate it.
"A-are you r-rich, Abyss?"
Abyss smiled. we are well off, but this isn’t all just ours, its shared property of the sanctuary, a lot of mutants live here, earlier when I said we’d go shopping, you’ll be able to shop til your hearts content. Promise. He put the car in park. you ready to get you settled in?
Amber nodded at Abyss' sage advice. Even with the short amount of time she had had her eyes, she could still see the logic in it. Bluffing wouldn't solve every problem, but it would certainly go a long way when dealing with certain kinds of people. She couldn't' even do anything special and all ready people were afraid of her, all because she looked a little different. Well, her eyes were pretty creepy so maybe it was to be expected.
Amber nodded when asked if she was ready to settle in. It had been a long day and she was tired enough to drop right then and there. "W-will I get to m-meet my s-sister and u-uncles soon?" She almost asked if she could meet them now but as much as she wanted to (and she really really did), sleep seemed like the more practical option and she assumed they probably weren't going anywhere anyway.
(any chance Amber could nod off? once they pick a room, I'm just trying to think of a reason why Abyss wouldn't tell her where his room was and some other stuff that might conflict with you and Aura's thread.)
"you certainly will, as soon as you like, I didn't want to force too much on you at once, you can get to know everyone as fast or as slow as you like. there are others that I consider family and you will meet them as well, but I will let you choose if you will call them family or not. for now though it looks like you could use some sleep, and be fresh for the rest. "
Abyss got out of the car and began to show her the way.
Amber followed Abyss out of the car and into Sanctuary itself, yawning widely. She really really wanted to meet her sister and her uncles but was having problems even keeping her eyes open. To say the least it had been a very long day and there was always tomorrow anyway.
When they finally did arrive at Amber's new room she wasn't even awake enough to really take in her surroundings. With another wide yawn, she nodded off almost as soon as she had been led to the room.
AByss tucked the tuckered out girl into her bed, smiling as he did so, she was adorable and innocent, something he hadn't been around in awhile someone with clean hands, he was prone to want to keep her hands clean, but would the world let her? he shook his head and flicked on the light in her bathroom, closing the door most of the way.
he quickly jotted down a note "if you need me just contact lisa and I'll come quick.
He closed the door and as fat would have it the note got blown off the desk and onto the floor and out of sight.
