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.

[glow=blue,2,300]Whining his way through city streets by passing everything whenever he got the chance. Since he was on a bike it was easy to slip in and out of traffic with this bike. Leaning to and fro and twisting the throttle and recieving an instant unending flow of effortless power he was smiling to himself. He had finally fixed the bike. Heading toward the middle of Times Square he noticed a dark cloaked figure heading back the way he had come. Orion cursed in his helmet knowing that he was in for a story as soon as the helmet came off. Locking the rear wheel and sending smoke in all directions as to make a cloud so people couldnt see much. Spinning the bike a full one eighty he pulled up to Chaos in the smoke and yelled for him to get on. Chaos's look told Orion he didnt like riding bitch but it wasnt like he had much of a choice. Pulling himself on he tapped Orions shoulder to tell him he was ready. Orion twisted the throttle and they took off. Orion had to be careful cause he didnt know if Chaos had any expirence on a bike. But he didnt hesitate when he found a straightaway to twist the handle even more. Once they got onto the back roads Orion flew toward the mansion. He wasnt much worried aout Chaos at this point cause his grip was still strong. [/glow]
Jordan walks down the sidewalk near times square, he stops, and goes into a diner. Just as he opens the door, someone clearly not paying attention walks right into him. "Oops, sorry" He says, and quickly leaves.
Jordan sits down at the bar and orders breakfast, and reads over some notes for an upcoming test, running his fingers over the braille. He thinks nothing more of the man he bumped into.
Outside the man ducks off into an alley. A few moments later, out walks a copy of Jordan.
A while later Jordan finishes his breakfast and walks back to his apartment.
A day later Jordan returns for breakfast. He sits down in a seat at the bar, orders his usual, and waits for his food to arrive. Two men in suits sit down on either side of him. Immediately "Seeing" the two handguns that each are carrying, he gets up, leaves a 20 on the bar, and begins to walk quickly to the door.
"Stop right there!" One of the men yells out, a gun drawn and holding out a police badge. "You are goign to need to come with us."
At that moment, Jordan turns around and sizes them up, obviously they are not really police. Alright, what the hell, he thinks to himself. Silmoultaniously the magazines fall out of all three drawn guns, and the round is the chamber is ejected. He then swiftly hits the two men on the sides of their heads with his cane, they fall unconcious. Jordan turns around and walks out.
*he arrived at times square next, he still coudlnt find any sign of orion, he started to think that this was gonna take all night.....the feeling inside him was growing, he could feel orion and he knew he was getting closer*
Gorgon was having another bad day. Not that sleeping in ally ways and scrounging on the streets isn't bad enough for someone who was raised as a sheltered rich girl. No- somehow today was managing to be worse.
It had all started when someone had noticed her in the depths of the ally she had been staying in. And set their dogs on her. The sound had alerted other tenants in the buildings she was between, as the shouting of "mutant, mutant!" always does. Soon, she was being pelted with cups and bottles and other easily thrown projectiles. She had ran out into the street to escape them-- stoning all of the dogs and an arm and face or two in the progress.
And then all hell broke loose. She had a ratty hood on, but that couldn't really disguise her looks- especially on one of the few bright, sunny days that New York gets.
When the people around her started screaming, all she wanted was to hide. But that feeling quickly turned from fear to anger. Who were they, really, to judge her in such a way. They assumed- the audacity of it!- they assumed she was a monster because of the way she looked.
"<.... you wish for a monster then? Fine. I'm more than happy to oblige!>" She snapped. And then she let loose on the crowd. Stoning limbs, faces, cars, anything. The chaos was incredible.
*chaos had heard the screams and the angry yells from down the street....as he approached central park he beheld the statues of countless ppl.....* "what is this.....who could have done all this...." * he paused as he noticed a dark figure standing cloaked.....she seemed to be enjoying it*
Her eyes flashed from person to person, indiscriminately freezing people, plants, cars, anything. She stood atop a stoned taxi cab-- it's still living inhabitants inside, screaming soundlessly, trying to break out of their stone prison.
She yelled and shouted at the crowd, a slightly evil smile upon her mouth, not noticing Chaos at this point.
*he watched in amusment and horror as she tortured ppl left and right, they couldnt move or they were completly turned to stone...it was however a sadistic sight to behold several ppl were differnt type of stones....guess it was there inner way of proving there worth over other ppl or something...... as he neared gorgon, a flash jumped through his mind and he groand and stumbled backward.........as she turned twords him, he recognized her......he couldnt remember who she was but togather they slaughterd one of the mutants........*
Looking down upon the man, she laughed, commenting at his bowed posture. "<At least someone shows me the respect I deserve.>" She turned back towards the crowd, dismissive of Chaos, arms spread wide above her head, making a full X of herself. "<All should bow- I am strong and powerful and you are not!>"
*There was something about this person....something he could not quit put his finger on, she was probably the most evil person he'd seen since he lost his memory(next to tricity he thought to himself) yet he could not help but stand there...... a couple cops showed up as the devistation began to rise.....he had taken the opportunity to observe gorgons powers and had not hesitated to turn them to stone....they let out short crys as there bodies became incased in stone*
