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 I'm back after a looong (as in three years long) absence, and would very much like to start/join a thread or two. Meeting up with an old friend/foe? Great! Meeting a totally new person? Also great! I'm up for pretty much anything: just hanging around to talk for a bit, visiting an event (as long as it makes sense) or maybe even a fight. Chris could, for example, try to obtain something valuable from your character's possession, which would probably not be a very welcome move.

My posting has been a little slow as of late, but I would love a Chris thread. Lots has happened to Saph lately; He's married, his wedding was crashed and he and his wife were nearly killed, and he has a daughter, kinda.

Yes, an Ashton thread sounds like fun! Since Chris is a bit... relaxed about other people's belonging they could perhaps have a chase? Chris could have taken something and could try to escape down into the river.
Whoa I looked through the marriage thread but had missed the bit about the daughter. Congrats! I was thinking about booting up the thread with the car accident now. Maybe we could combine that with a car chase if you'd want to join us with Ashton, Shin? I was thinking about having a NPC police car chasing after Chris, but it'd be a good opportunity if you wanna join in.
