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.

"So....My grandpa is a dragon. I was training on a mountain for about a year. Martial arts,meditation, weapons, hunting, survival.... and before that I got mixed up in this telepath's youth crime ring, he was brainwashing us. it sucked. but apparently his powers just broke one day. Everything felt sso wrong, I should have just come back here. But some time in solitude was good for me. Allowed me to let go of a lot of baggage. "
“Well, before I went awol lasst year I wass looking into ssome kidnappings, I found a patern that the NYpd just wassn’t picking up on and started tracking a pair of kidss. It turned out that a telepath was the kidnapper. I wanted to ssave them sso I went after them, I planned on coming back for reinforcementss, but thingss just sstarted moving fasst. Sso, I go in to take the guy out and before I know it I am trapped in hiss mind control and obeying his commandss. It was ssurreal. I sspent the majority of a year there until ssomething or ssomeone canceled out hiss mind control and the kidss went lord of the fliess on him. He survived long enough to get arrested and ssent to prison, After that I just felt numb and broken and wanted to dissappear, I didn’t kill anyone, but he had me hurt people, he had me blackmail people, I sstole art and artifactss and I wass good at it, flawlesss.” He stared at the counter for a moment.
“ I never wanted to usse my abilitiess for anything like that. Knocking the teeth out of some criminals mouth is one thing…” He shook his head. “But anyway, after all of that wass over I contacted my grandfather. He rushed over and took me to the mountains he calls home, there is a Yamabusshi temple dedicated to him, he iss ancient and has more power than I even understand. He is the one behind the Mizuchi legends. Apparently The xgene skips a generation and his grand children, my cousins have been powerful and integral to Japanesse history. I learned Shugendo and so much more from them. Until earlier today, he decided that I was needed back here. I met up with Kat earlier and after we sspent the morning together I sset off to find you.”
Koga’s eyes fell toward the table once again. Though it felt good to have it off of his chest to two people that he really valued. He felt bare at the moment. Vulnerable, Something that no longer came natural to him.
Koga looked at shin and let the pout and somberness melt away from him. A grin replaced it all just from the sincerity in Shin's voice. "Me too! So? What do you want to do today?" He was up for pretty much anything, he spent the morning with Katrina, had lunch with Gawain's girlfriend, he'd have to bug him about that later...or maybe he should tell Ami about the first time he met Maya... Or maybe he shouldn't get either of them mad at him.
And now he was getting to sit here with Shin, Maybe they could do something today, though if Shin was busy the could schedule something for letter and he could go look for Coldsteel.

It looked like Koga was feeling better after unloading. Good.
"I was just planning on a little training," Shin replied with a small smile. "Practicing my Spirit Gun... among other things..." What other things, he left blank.
"Maybe I should set up a firing range in the danger room, too... hmm..." Options, options. He took his hand of his chin and looked to Koga. "Why? What do you want to do? Or maybe we could just visit? I guess Kealey hasn't seen you much, either." And Koga had not seen the ring.
"Lets do everything! Train, shoot stuff, Visit and visit Kealey." Koga said enthusiastically. He was happy to see Shin, he was happy to be home, today was a happy day and was the first in a long time and likely to be the first with many to follow.
