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.

After a few moments of the pair of them standing on guard, the saber tooth let out a low growl, a final warning that she was not going down without a fight. She swiped her clawed hand on the ground in front of her, causing dirt and leaves, along with some snow, to fly up in front of her. She was threatening, but waiting. Waiting for the right moment to attack, when she had a good opening, one that would allow her massive fangs to make quick work of this creature.
Another roar emanated from the beast and it made the large cat’s ears flatten on the top of her head. She was really getting annoyed with this creature. He launched himself at her once again, claws extended and ready to rip her throat out. She let out a hiss as he came towards her. She grasped his clawed hands in her own and leaned back, letting the force of his attack roll them backwards. She placed her feet on his belly and pushed him off of her before he could bite, letting go of his hands as she launched his form off of her own.
Not giving the creature a chance to hit the dirt, the saber tooth rolled to her feet and ran towards the beast that she had just tossed into the air. She was so fast she was almost a blur of white and green fur. She made her way to where he was falling and attempted to pin him down under her large form. She grew tired of the games and knew it was time to end them once and for all.
Tses couldn't handle it anymore. The second the fighting creatures were a few feet away from her stump she scrambled free, and started to make a dash for safety. That was when she saw the ferocity in which the tiger creature was attacking 'probably-Carrick'. Tses wasn't one to get in a fight that wasn't hers, but she had a soft spot for the gryphon boy, and letting him get mauled by one of her least favorite acquaintances just didn't feel right.
So she did the dumb thing. She formed an explosive orb of energy in her hand and threw it at the back of the cat's head. From experience, her sensitive hearing might not like the resulting pressure the explosion created next to her ears. She hoped it would be enough of a distraction to give the gryphon a little edge. If not, she was going to hope she wouldn't be torn to ribbons by both of them before dinner.
Bad wing and all the beast was launched into the air with the powerful force of the predator’s feet Carrick let out a low growl followed by a grunt and a higer pitch yelp as he was forced airborne. Carrick adjusted mid-flight using his good wing and was starting to fall fast to the beast once again she was fast. Carrick’s claws again were angled towards the white creature and another snarl left mouth.
A flash of green and Carrick’s mismatched beast like eyes spotted the blonde woman again, he looked back to the green beast and was ready to pounce hoping the green flash was enough to distract the other creature.

Just as the saber tooth arrived at her location to down the winged beast, a familiar and painful pop of pressure filled her head. She snarled and flipped around to face the source of the tiny explosion. Her emerald eyes locked onto the blond haired figure across the way and she took a few steps towards her, now ignoring the winged creature that was falling from the sky with his claws extended towards her.
It wasn’t long before the other creature was on top of her. His sharp claws digging into her furry flesh. The saber tooth was livid. She roared and reached back with her own razor sharp claws and grasped the creature on her back, trying to pull him off of her with her superior strength. Her eyes still locked onto the figure who had come to the aid of this annoying thorn in her side, she took slow steps forward as she continued to pry the beast off of her back.
Tses wasn't sure if she was helping or harming things, but the decision had been made and now she had to stand up and deal with the consequences. At the moment, those 'consequences' were in the shape of a furious sabertoothed creature prowling her way. Creating another orb of energy, she tossed it into the creatures face, aiming for her ears and hoping to take advantage of the female's sensitive hearing. She created a few more orbs and similarly tossed them, continuing to backpedal into the trees.
She wondered if she should be running. The flight or fight questions were in her mind, and she was halfway between both. Was it possible to do both? She was fairly certain that was what happening now as the explosions made contact.
