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, that sounds interesting." She glanced at the other two who also seemed to approve of what Mr. King told them. "Guess we'll just have to check things out, but I'm sure we'll run into each other again soon." Syn looked at Raptor as he smacked his gum in his mouth.
"Yes Mr King do you have an extensive supply of steak and if so can you tell me were you keep it," he was licking his lips slightly he was still hungry after eating quite a lot meat and nothing else "And why do you wish to spend so much time on mutants rather than Normal People,"
Isabel listened silently as Syn and Mr. King conversed together, her eyes shifting from one to another as they took turns speaking. So King did have alterior motives for gathering together so many mutants. Her eyes shifted to Jonas for a moment as he took his turn to speak. "I'd say it's because normal humans are of no real use. The non-mutants are more of a cover-up, a distraction from what's really going on, no?"
I’m just a well-adjusted gal who likes to leave a serious amount of mayhem in her wake.
"Yes Mr King do you have an extensive supply of steak and if so can you tell me were you keep it,"
Dorian smiled. "Take the elevator down one level and go to the cafeteria, that is where your steak is. Just try not to eat the whole supply." Dorian turned to return to the office.
"...why do you wish to spend so much time on mutants rather than Normal People,"
Dorain stopped and paused.
"Just because I socialize with 'normal people' is by no means an excuse not to nurture my own kind..." He grinned, "Goodbye young ones" and continued up the stairs.
Jonas lazily picked up another stick of chewing gum out of his pocket "anybody wat some," he said beofre quickly popping it into his mouth he blew a bubble with it then popping tit and sucking it back in he looked a lot more childlike though his shirt was soaked with prespiration as it clung to the contours of hsi chest he lazily said
Syn watched Mr. King leave and she turned to Raptor. "Do you only think of food?" She smiled and shook her head. "Well, I think I'm gonna go check out the pool. What are you two going to do?" She looked at both Isabel and Raptor. "Wait, don't tell me...you're gonna go eat." she commented to Raptor jokingly.
"Nurture my ass he probably wants to feed us drugs," Jonas muttered then went down to the gym to have a swim he changed into his raptor form and dived in the way he swam was like that of a crocodile but you could tell he didn't have gills because every so often he would swim upwards for a breath after his swim he went to the gym to work on his muscles and to build a little endurance
"Oh great now I have to wait until they disinfect the pool." she said somewhat playfully. Looking around she found a dressing room for girls and went in. Inside the room were lockers as well as swimsuits of all sizes. She picked out a two piece black one and changed into it and went back out to the pool.
His own kind? So Dorian King was a mutant as well. It was no wonder there were so many rumors about him floating around, what a strange character. "I think I'm going to go down to the library for a little while." she said in response to Syn's question. Isabel could be a bit of a bookworm and she wanted to see what Mr. King's collection had to offer.

He smiled at her as she climbed into the water he loved swimming as a kid even going as far as swimming with crocodiles which is why he swims they way he does now he was soaked in sweat so he just dived in swimming around her "COme on SYn arn't you any good is this only for show," the pheremones had now lost their effects stopping his twitching
Silently Isabel made her way through the many shelves of bookcases in the Sanctuary's library, her eyes scanning the titles on the bindings of the books, her hand hanging down by her side trailed one finger across the books on lower shelves as she walked. Coming to the end of one isle, she turned and walked down another.
A dark maroonish colored binding caught her eye, the title reading Myths and Folklore. The young mutant took ahold of the binding and pulled the book from the shelf before opening up the cover and thumbing through a few pages with a satisfied smile. Wrapping the book in one arm, she held it over her chest and made her way toward the reading area were a small group of other mutants were spread out at the tables and in various chairs.
Sitting in one of the mentioned chairs, she places the book in her lap and opens it once more, her finger running down the length of script in the index, stopping when she read the word Vampire, one of her favorite creatures. Turning the pages, she finds the correct number in the upper right hand corner, the same word she'd read moments before printed big and elaborately as the title. Flipping back the excess pages, she leans back into the plush chair and quietly begins to read.

Syn jumped into the pool swimming underwater for a short distance then coming back to the surface for a breath. "This water feels great. I could get used to this place." She then looks back to Raptor. "What are you talking about is this only for show?"

Kaz had been relaxing at the bottom of the pool after his usual workout. He had a small tank with him which he took breaths from when needed. He wasn't sure why he enjoyed this odd activity. Perhaps it was the feel of the water around him, the calm, the way it moved, or maybe the way sounds were muffled yet sharp at the same instant.
This peace and calm was turned upside down when a reptile jumped into the pool. Kaz stared at it and heard it speak. <So, he's a mutant. What a petty display of your power.> Sighing inwardly, <I won't get anymore peace here. At least the others don't act like children.>
He began to let out his breath slowly as he rose up through the water at the deep end. His back was next to the wall as he surfaced. Reached up to the ledge of the pool, he set the tank down and held firmly to the ledge and lifted himself up. Eyes shut, he tightened his grip, nearly feeling it begin to crack, but it was just tight enough for him to know he wouldn't move. Arms fully extended, he could have just slid onto the floor, but instead he began to rotate out of the pool, he hung horizontal for a moment before going virticle. He was well past the normal range of motion, as most peoples' arms would have broke by now. Straight up his legs were, toes pointing to the ceiling. Slowly his legs began to seperate, his left foot touched the ground first after a slow decent. The right leg snapped down to meed the left, his hand came off of the ledging, as he bent backwards. Going into a backwards handspring; once; twice; thrice; three rotations in a matter of moments. It looked as if he would collide with the fast approaching wall, but he finished his last rotation, stopping with his feet on the ground less than a foot from the wall, with his back setting softly against the wall arms cross over his chest, eyes still closed.
Lifting his head to look towards the pool, where the reptile and a fairly attractive looking girl swam, his eyes slowly opened revealing his crimson ruby eyes. His gaze landed on the reptile first, annoyance was palpable and solely projected toward him. It shifted to the girl. Nothing, no emotion toward her. He gave her a small polite sly smile, as his eyes seemed to smile with playfullness.
Leaning forward, he stook completely straight as he dropped his arms to his side. His hair began shake and shiver, just slightly. This shiver began to move down his body. It looked extremely odd, the first would normally be a seizure, but it's too small and controlled. As it passed down his body, where it had been was completely still. Down to his feet, it began its way back up his body, until it ended where it had begun, at his hiar. Where just a moment before stook a man glistening because of the water clinging and dripping from his body, stood a completely dry, dull man.
Turning to his immediate left, he entered the locker room. After a few minutes he reemurged wearing a black tee cuz low in the chest and neck where a pendant shone, his shirt tucked into his black slacks, from which a black silver buckled belt lay in the loops, black silver lined boots clicked on the floor; thick silver bracelets were locked around his black gloves that covered part of his forearm; a crimson overshirt wrapped around his torso.
He walked to the side of the pool closest to the two. He looked directly at the girl. "I suppose you're new?"
Raptor caught the glare and turned back to his own form looking at Kaz before remembering just how bad his anger could get sometimes, "Why are you glaring at me," he said calmly and if answering the question that he ahd pointed to Syn he said, "Yes I am new," he turned his irritated look to an enquiring one "Why," he was begining to get loose the fight he was currently holding between his politeness and his instinctive feelings to fight and destroy he shook his head slightly as if expelling a thought.
"So whats your name," his voice had taken on a very inquisitive feel something you don't see everyday with raptor usually his only inquisitiveness was to find out who had called him a name and how badly he thought he should hurt them, "But no," he thought to himself "Today I am determined to not let my instincst get the better of me," he kept this thought in his head as he spoke to Kaz trieing his best not to let his anger get the better of him. "And how long since King attracted you to this place,"
Just as Syn was waiting for a response from Raptor someone else emerged from the pool. She spotted him placing something on the edge of the pool before getting out. Maybe it was an air tank or something. Why was he under the water though? Was he practicing scuba diving? Oh well, it didn't really seem to matter now.
Just then she watched the new guy get out of the pool in a rather strange way. She watched as his arms rotated but his shoulders didn't pop or anything. Now that's wierd she thought. Once he was out of the pool he went to the boys locker room. She thought he had left but the boy returned and fully dressed in black with some silver here adn there. Syn liked his outfit. Mostly because she likes dark colors though. She continued to watch him as he approached close to where she and Raptor were at.
When the guy asked his question Syn wanted to give him a sarcastic reply but instead she just answered. "Yeah I just got here with a couple others. How long have you been here?"
