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.

[glow=blue,2,300]Orion walked into his Cave. Sighing he wondered what had happened to him. He was changing so much, moving out of his Cave into the mansion, which didn't appeal to him at all, but she said shed feel safer. Walking into his personal chambers he started to repack all his clothes from the nooks in the walls to the bag. As an after thought he left half his clothes here cause he knew he'd be back quite often. Moving to the next room he began to pack away many of his illustrious blades. Swords, knives, shurkens, daggers, switch blades and katanas. The next bag took most of his martial arts paraphernalia. He decided only to take his truck up to the mansion because some of the kids had been known to hotwire cars in the garage and take them for a spin or two. His cars and bikes were way to much for any kid to even move around in the garage. Most vehicles had switches all over the place for many different thing Orion had modded his wheels with. Even thought they all had special alarm systems he didnt want any kids to get zapped cause he left temptation in the eyes of young ones. Shouldering the four bags wo of clothes and martial arts things and two of knives and the like, he made his way over to the vehicle chamber and began to load the bed of the big diesel dodge. Somehow the more he packed the worse he felt about leaving the Cave. Making his way back to his Personal chamber he stood in front of the mirror and just zoned out, thinking.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]Orion came to from his little daze and began to stroll around the Cave just reminiscing, He saw that Demon had left him a note of thanks and best hopes and whatnot. He was getting so down about leaving that when he remembered hed probably spend just as much time here anyway it made him feel a little better. Archon padded his way ito the cave and sniffed around a bit and then just followed Orion around a bit as if he knew what was going on. Orion sat down in one of the chairs and began to talk to Archon. telling him theyd be living in the mansion but not abandoning their Cave. Archon looked as if he understood him. Orion stood up and began to tidy the Cave up so tha hed feel comfortable about leaving. After he was done he decided it was time to stop procrastinatig and get back to the mansion. Walking into the Vehicle chamber he picked the keys off the hook and climbed into the cab of the big truck. The big diesel rumbled to life and Orion eased it out on to the road, and headed toward the mansion. [/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]Orion rumbled into the Cave shut off the truck and headed toward the main chamber. Glad to be back he lit a fire with his usual, and settled into a chair with a book and began to immerse himself in the quiet. Again content he drifted away into the world that the book created for him.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]After some time Orion decided hed go out for a beer. He was in a rough mood and was in the mood for some atmosphere that wouldnt annoy him. Getting up he decided to take advantage of the nice day it was. Walking into the Vehicle chamber he picked the choppers keys off the walls. He grabbed his chain mail jacket and slipped it on. His black jeans, boots, t-shir and now the jacket gave him a commanding appearance. He straddled the bike keyed th ignition, stabbed the starter and the bikes V-Twin roared to life. Putting the bike into gear he roared out of the Cave toward the city.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]Orion parked the chopper in its usual spot in the cave and went to check out the rest of the Cave. Archon was already there as he didnt have to take the road. The big wolf sniffed for a few minutes and then just mostly followed Orion around for a bit. Orion changed clothes. He finally wore a pair of blue jeans, but his boots and shirt were still black. Meandering back into the Vehicle chamber he Started doing some work on the big black Charger. With the hood up and a rag tucked in his back pocket he began the lengthy process of installing one of the same supercharger sthat the Viper had, into the Charger. After some time Archon wandered in and sniffed about but decided hed rather go out hunting or something. A couple hours later Orion finished putting the air filter back into the ram air hood and tightened the last bolt. CLosing the hood, he wiped his hands and grabbed the key and twisted the ignition. After a few seconds of turning over the big american V-8 in the Charger coughed and sputtered to life. After a minute or so of running it sounded good, real good in fact. Orion had cleaned up the area around the car while it was idling. Now he hopped in and went for a test ride. Archon was still out hunting and would be for a couple more hours at least so hed have time. The old hot rod roughly idled out of the Cave and headed toward the street. Once on the street Orion took the back roads to find a quiet straightraway.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]Orions Charger glided back into the Cave. Killing the engine he called for Archon and the Wolf trotted around the corner.
"Comon, pup were going back to the mansion to see if we can find Tricity." Orion informed the animal. He opened the door and the wolf hopped right in. Getting in the passenger side and keying the ignition Orion drove up to the garage at the mansion.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]Orion parked the charger and immediatly got to work on the bike. He was hoping to figure out why the inverter was fluxuating so badly as to drop speeds so drastically. After some time he believed he fixed the problem but the only way to make sure was to test it out on the street under heavy strain. He also figured hed head into the city to find caterers and flowers and what not for the wedding. Grabbing his chain mail jacket and chaps he donned them and his jet black helmet. Punching the starter and listening to the engine whine up he put the sleek black bike into gear and whisked out of the Cave.[/glow]
Arriving at his Cave he put the special bike in its hiding spot behind a ledge and headed into the Main Chamber. Starting a fire in the stone hearth he turned to his miniature library and scanned his books for something about sentinels. He finally found one he had borrowed from the professor a while back. Luckily most of the books in the old library had survived the demolition of the mansion so they didnt hasve to track down all those books. Orion sat in an easy chair and petted Archon who had just come in from the woods. Archon settled down on the floor just a few feet from Orion. Orion began flipping pages and looking up technical specs as well as programming procedures so as not to overlook something. He found out that even the earlier bots were learning bots. That would explain how they became increasingly difficult every time. Already suspecting this he read on to find out hen they had been do for an upgrade. Discovering that they had been upgraded two to three times already intrigued orion. Someone whoever they were either underestimated the mutants or was doing this just to show the world how dangerous mutants could be. Pausing for a moment he could only think of one organization whom had the resources to pull this off. Weapon 0. Orion brow furrowed and his mind focused on his last Weapon raid. He had come out of it the worst for wear. Not wanting to tangle with a whole facility alone again, especially if they already knew what he could do and were prepared for it. Closing the book and leaving it on his lap he put his hands together to form a tee pee and started to think about what he would have to do to pull this one off if deja vue ended up happening again. He doubted it would but he wanted to have a plan B.
Orion heard her voice and moved into her view as he got up from the chair. "Hi babe, whats up?' he asked as he kissed her and went to get her a blanket from the Personal Chamber.
"Well well start with Reflecto but theres another one whom needs to be discussed here as well." he said as he poked at the fire with the poker. Putting it down he turned and leaned on the wall by the fire side. "So whats going on?"
i dont know...he's acting weird. he is saying weird things like buddha or ghandi. OH and then he said that i didnt care about brainfreeze. i almost dropped the kids' snacks when he said that. he's acting like a 5 year old in a sense...but at the same time saying confucious kinda of things. *she looked over at orion.* does that make sense?
"Not at the moment. Do you want me to look into it or leave it be?" He asked as his face showed distinct suspicion. Without realizing it he had taken out one of his knives and was twirling it about in his hand while waiting for an answer and thinking at the same time.
