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.

I'm not quite sure I understand the question... what other plans are you talking about?
The government's plan is fairly simple... maybe too much so. They simply want to create a group that is mutant led and carries out operations that promote peace between mutants and humans.

No... it's a sincere project. The government (supposedly... especially seeing how it's not really the government, it's actually just Gwendolyn) really does want there to be a solid solution between mutants and humans. PACEM is the answer in their minds.

To clarify... no one will know of the group's existance in the first stages of it... and perhaps even later.
So no one will know that it isn't truly a government group. The government itself will be aware of the group's existance and tend to turn a blind eye, allowing them to carry out missions in their name.
It's not techincally legal, but not illegal either. It's as legal as the X-Men, Kabal, or Order is... but definitely looked upon as more agreeable, than any of those other groups, to the government. The group will be covert at first anyway, so no one outside the group or those who have come in contact with it will know of it's existance. (besides the government, who has an ear for these things)
It could hurt people, but not without cause. It's purpose is to promote peace through use of force... it definitely leans good on the good/evil scale.
Greater-good vigilantes. Joy. The silence of my jubilation positively deafening. Does this mean Fever will have more people to drive insane, or will they let him commit grand theft in peace? *evil grin* OOC - I like the idea a lot though.
Just a question - I don't know if this has been asked before, but what will their relationship be with the other factions?

Lol. Nope, grand theft will be dealt with if possible.
It's likely that their relationships with other factions will be unknown at first. The other groups probably will have a hint that something is going wrong, but because the group will at first be dark (kept extremely low key and a deep secret to any but those involved), it's likely the relationship will be non-existant.
Now, when the other groups find out that's a different story. It could end up pretty ugly, or they could work together. Who knows?

Okay, so now that the plot is coming to a close, this group will start to pick up speed. Seb and Gwen will do some off camera planning, and then Gwen will contac Glare with the details.
Then I'll start a thread for all interested parties (assuming Zeke has met you at some point in MRO, if he doesn't we'll meet in the labs at the end of this plot) and the new government group shall be born!
