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.

He had been out cold for a solid week, the balding man had told him to sleep so he slept, it apparently disoriented youths and helped the man have a more receptive audience when hypnotizing them. He laid in a long drawer beneath the man's bed. his mind reeled about what he should do, but his body dutifully slept. It was he imagined like being possessed and being forced to watch as someone else pulled the strings to your body.like a dummy put away in its case, he lay still waiting for the man to tell him what to do next.
Koga set on a coach, in perfect posture, not much unlike his own real posture, he sat unblinking not unlike his usual self, a quality that any reptile could boast was winning staring contests. What made this eiry was that eighteen other children set all about him with the same expression and poise. They all faced the same direction and were mesmerized by the same man.literally. His tick tock clock voice echoed around in their heads,
~~ Obey your master, obey your master. do as he says, do as he says, or you'll be dead, or you'll be dead. gruesome things happen to those who disobey, they jump from the roofs amd swim in the bay, they set themselves on fire, and they lick live wires, they eat all their poison. obey or die, obey you are mine. obey my pets, obey my children,obey my puppets, obey my slaves, obey, obey, obey.
Now that he was awake, he felt like he was still asleep. just with his eyes open, just watching the disturbing play of a telepath gone unchecked. But Koga was patient, if it was today or twenty years from now, the man would pay, but first he had to learn how to disobey.
The first went by and he hadn't even attempted to disobey, he watched as the others worked, at least to his knowledge that guy wasn't a pedophile, which is what he initially thought was the case, then he thought he might be trafficking children, that wasn't the case either...actually it was like one of those terrible hoarding shows where someone couldn't have enough of something, it was always worse when the hoarder collected something living, but with the children being mind-controlled it was like he had robots or zombies, zombie robots?
Regardless no one seemed to dis obey, but still Koga watched and waited, slowly but surely stretching his metaphorical arms, testing the boundaries, testing his limits. He went a long with what the master said, but he would sometimes not take a direct path, but still have the full intention of completing his goal. Hhe would have killed the man if he gave him the chance.
The day he planned on killing the man he witnessed what happened to those that disobeyed. Those with strong minds and wills. A boy made a surprisingly swift move against the master, he had been holding a large vase near the master while a girl dusted under it. by command, the pair was cleaning the living room study... but when the boy didn't put the vase down the master barked an order from a chair.
~~"put That Vase down!" the bald man commanded
The response had everyone staring, the boy put the vase down as hard as he could across the master's face. The move had a couple different consequences. They were all commanded not to harm master and two the boy was punished. apparently the girl that he was cleaning with was his sister or possibly someone that the master had paired up with the boy for their stay. he had paired others up for similar duties. The girl was ordered to stand still and the boy was ordered to slap her twenty times. It was terrible.
Koga's plan of pouring some rat poison in the masters food the next time he was asked to bring it was put on hold. He could not harm the master. It was sobering to see the boy struggle against the command and failing, the pair hugged later and she said it wasn't his fault. After watching the disgraceful torment of the pair Koga was fully prepared to kill this man.
