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.

Sveta wouldn't mind him being there? Jude blinked as he desperately tried to keep himself from spiraling down his usual insecurities. Just because she said she wanted to keep him, didn't mean anything. He really needed to stop jumping into things any time that someone expressed that they wanted him around in some capacity. After all, her amusement over the whole situation was obvious. Her laughter still rang in the back of his ears.
"The Ranger worked for both BlacTac and Haven for a time. I don't see why they have to be mutually exclusive." It was possible. He'd seen Michael have his cake and eat it too and that had worked out, for the most part.
Was he seriously considering this?
She reminded him that they weren't a cult and he nodded, feeling somehow more and more vulnerable. Yeah, the last time he'd been on a team that hadn't worked out either. This was stupid. He needed to stop.
"We'll redraw the contract to assist in recruitment." He took a deep, cleansing breath. "Ready for your power back?"
Jude looked thrown off balance by her jokes. Did he really think she was trying to recruit him? Or did he just take 'keep you' in the wrong way? Because one of those ships had sailed, blown up and sunk. The other, well, was entirely up to him.
>>"The Ranger worked for both BlacTac and Haven for a time. I don't see why they have to be mutually exclusive."
"You can join up any time. But I'm not gonna trick you into it." she clarified. Jude, with his powers and experience, would have been a very valuable asset to Haven.
>>"We'll redraw the contract to assist in recruitment. Ready for your power back?"
"Nope" she smirked "Go ahead."
It was always nice to take a break.
"Just make sure we don't light up the whole building."

"I know." And a part of him wished she would try to trick him. Then, at least, he'd know she was serious.
She was and wasn't ready. That reinstalled his usual smirk. He could just let go, it would snap back in place like a pop, but she had a point. Instead, Jude closed his eyes and tried to visualize that same arm that reached out to grab powers, but this time it was reaching out to gently set it back into place. As soon as he'd let go, he slurped that arm back into place and locked it down.
See? He'd grown.
A familiar coffee buzz rolled over him.
"If there's nothing else, I'll have my people call your people. Or, just let me know when you're in need of recruiting."
