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.

The door was suddenly iced over in front of him, making him practically slide to a halt and cry out in fright. Then Sam put himself bodily in front of the window, now there were no escape routes left, at least none that wouldn't result in self injury. Not-Alex looked from Sam to Jules and back again, breathing harshly, like some sort of cornered animal.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa…. What’s up Alex…"
As Sam drew closer he stepped backward until he was pressed against the wall, looking terrified. "...Not Alex..."he murmured meekly, "N-not, no, not Alex...S-something happened, we switched, never happened...before..." He looked away from Sam, "Dunno what happened...What happened, what happened! We've never switched before! It doesn't make sense!" His hands went to his head, pressing hard and whining in distress.
His head hurt, really and truly hurt like nothing else. The pulsing and pounding of every heart beat sounded and felt like earth shaking thunder. It was too much, all of this was too much. He didn't want this, he wanted to go back, why was it like this?!
She had signed up for a potentially awkward, but overall chill dinner with her boyfriend and his adopted son. She had signed up for festivities and food and maybe a bit of drinking. She had not signed up for a mental break and all of whatever that was. Her hands flew to her temples and she felt her eyes bulge a little. Even with all her training, she had no idea what to do.
Turning to Sam, she whispered, ”just make sure that he can’t get out and that the ambulance can grab him. I’m going to try talking to him.”
With any luck, the ambulance would be there in a few minutes, and they could take Alex somewhere safe where he could get help. Because, judging from that situation, he desperately needed it.
Slowly, she raised her hands and sat down on the floor in front of Alex-who-was-not-Alex, and crossed her legs. ”Is it alright if I sit, then? And ask who you are, if you’re not Alex?”
She just hoped that he wouldn’t get violent again.

Judging from Juliette’s initial response of rubbing her temples this dinner was not going well. After everything was said and done she’d be getting an abundance of specialty coffee and flowers. When she mentioned the ambulance Sam suddenly felt that they shouldn’t have called anyone if this was related to his powers there would be a story somewhere about it and in Alex’s case when it came to stories he didn’t need another one out there right now.
Sam shifted his weight and nodded reluctantly and then raised an eyebrow to ‘not-Alex’. He seemed panicked more afraid than Sam was a few minutes ago but he did his best to put on a calm composure by placing his hands behind his head making sure not to tear the suit. He was pretty sure his tailor wouldn’t be willing to fix another tear in a suit.
When Juliette sat down he also started to focus on the air around them, he didn’t lower the temperature because if he did there was no telling if ‘not- Alex’ would view that as hostile or not. ”You’re safe here.” he added after Juliette spoke.
