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.

Cons (weaknesses) of ability(ies): He has no sense of touch at all aside from the feel of metal, this is due to the fact his parents pushed him to train his power so rigourously that it developed much to quickly and caused his sense of touch to pervert and become only able to detect the touch of metal, as well as his incredible hatred for humans, as this causes him to have a hard time socializing with none mutants in a calm none hostile manner
Fighting style (if any): Master marksmen and heavily trained in KGB fighting techniques as well as several weapons proficiencies he gained from training
History of your character: Vladimir Markov was born 28 years ago to two mutants in Russia, both his mother and father were high powered members of an anti-human organization that operated underground, they planned revolution night and day and taught there son growing up that he was far superior then an ordinary human and that it was them that should be in control, the Homo Superior.
His powers manifested very young at the age of 7 to be exact, this was probably due to the mutant lineage he had, regardless though, he was pushed very hard by his parents to train his power and practice at controlling it, they said there was few worse then a human, one was a mutant that loved humans and another was a mutant that didn't have control over their powers, they said they were like apes, he was home schooled as well mostly taught of what his parents viewed as important, mainly being different fighting techniques, marksmanship, the core classes needed to pass the states graduation test and military and revolution strategy, not to mention the bulk of what he did which was what his parents called "Gift Exploration" which was a nice way to say he was forced to practice his power extensively in the privacy of his home and with other children of parents in the revolution.
Eventually he graduated Home schooling at 18 and his parents told him with his superior fitness and military strategy he should join the Russian army and be their mole, he gladly accepted and quickly joined and rose through the ranks, having superior skills in the military field to the other soldiers he had no trouble adapting and pushing through the tests, eventually ending up in the KGB as a commander at the age of 27, however it was at this time that his parents and other members of the radical anti-human party were discovered, and brutally executed by the government.
He immediatly left the KGB out of disgust for the Russian government and traveled to America where he heard another group of Anti-humans were forming, he figured this would be the best place to put his talent and expertise and carry on the legacy of his parents.
Really interesting con. Welcome to MRO. Good luck with rping. Hope see you out there. I think your character is a little on the slim side of muscularity if he is 6'8" and weighs only 250 lbs.
