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.

Hey, I was just thinking, since I Millie does not always play too big of a role, I was thinking of extending her continuing nightmares into something much worse. Here is what I'm thinking:
Millie has nightmares, right? Well, what if I made it so that her nightmares were a part of her newly developing mental disorder. Not just any disorder, of course, I was thinking schizophrenia. Well, I know that schizos are usually men in their 20's, if I recall correctly, but what if it ran in her family and her mutated genes sped up the process and made her schizophrenia case much worse and it starts at an earlier age, hence how she will start having it when she's 4, begining with her nightmares becoming reality.
If you have read Millie's profile, you will know that her powers run off of her emotions. Also, you would know that, even though she has not reached that point, if she was ever to become way too scared, she would generate such a bright glow from her body that it could blind people/mutants that cannot shield it and can generate heat due to the immense light intensity.
What do you guys think? Does anyone want to help me out?
Oh, and one more thing, since she would be getting so scared alot, whenever she's hallucinating, I'm gonna have her start glowing in fear and when she gets too scared and glows alot, then when she recovers and stops glowing, her hair will be darker. So if she's REALLY scared, like blinding people scared, then she'll have like black hair afterwards. But after taking a nap or doing something to calm her down, her hair will return to blonde.
This way roleplaying her will become so much fun because she's so little and very interesting because she's so little and frail and well...a schizo.
I like the idea, but to add more of a challenge, I think her nightmares she become a open gate to the astral plane or some alternate reality, where the monsters she dream of become real and superstrong, and whoever is near her or the people she care about is sucked and trapped into the alternate reality until she wakes up..

Yeah, like she doesn't only suffer schizophrenia, but she makes everyone around her suffer it too?
I'm torn between the idea of just having people/mutants around her feel useless and keep trying to help her or be sucked into her schizo reality. But I do like the idea, I think it will serve as more of a challenge if they too were sucked in instead of me roleplaying her twisted world and just say "...and she's still not responding to reality..."
I'd offer to play along but I don't think you want bad guys involved. Besides her little dreamscapes would only work a couple times on Syn. But it does sound like a fun idea for you guys.
