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.

Daria blushed, "it keeps things interesting," she joked.
Amond clasped his hands together. "Well, let's get you two to a table, shall we?" he threw a cloth napkin over his arm and grabbed two menus, leading them through the foyer of the restaurant and to their table next to the window with yet another breath taking view of the city.
A few people looked at them as they sat, a few of them recognized either Mike or Daria. "I will be your waiter is evening. I will get you water shortly, however your wine was pre ordered." As he spoke another waiter came up with a tray and a bottle of wine in ice. Amond smiled, poured them to glasses and set the bottle on the table.
Mike smirked, noticing the looks they were drawing. "You know... it almost makes me wonder if we should have gone out with ears and tail showing and eyes glowing tonight," he mused. Daria knew by now how torn he was about things like that... on one hand, he hated hiding what he was... he was proud to be a mutant, and there was no doubt that if someone came up to him and asked if he really was a mutant, a psychic, an X-Man... anything along those lines, he'd say 'yes' without hesitation. But on the other hand, he liked being able to have relatively quiet nights with Daria, free of the drama.

And as Confident as Daria had become since being with mike, her head shook comically animalistically at the idea. "I don't think that would be a good idea." she said. "I don't like the attention as it is now."
She took her napkin and smoothed it over her lap, catching the eye of an elderly woman whispering to her dinner companion who then turned to Daria with a big familair smile.
"It's good for business, so far, at least. But no one who knows about the restuarant knows I'm a mutant." she bit her lip with a bit of shame for feeling as she did. "And I'd like to keep it that way.
"I know," Mike assured her. "And I'm not about to go outing us, especially here." And he meant it, of course. Still, he wondered what it was going to be like for their children... would they have to do this in public, too?
He saw a few people giving him tentative glances from a nearby table, and rolling his eyes, picked up a menu.

Daria looked over her menu as well, sipping her wine. She was, of course, about to order salmon when she saw a chicken dish that she decided looked much better.
She reached over the table and grabbed mike's hand gently in hers. "Do you know what you want to order, yet?"
