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.

OOC: In this thread I am giving Revolution permission to kill me, this is due to the fact that I've been offered a very nice scholarship to a boarding school in Washington and it's an oppurtunity I can't afford to miss, so although this is without a doubt the best Rp I've ever been on, I have to bid you all Adieu, I however cannot simply leave my character floating around so I decided the best thing to do would be to give him a warriors death, and Revolutions character, being the human hater he is, fits the profile perfect to do the job, so with that said I'm going to begin posting my chars final and most prolific battle
IC: Zero stood behind a building in a desolate street, it was around 3 Am and all but the most insomnial people were tucked away in bed, the moon shown very brightly through the clouds, lighting up the otherwise dark street, the sound of feet and the roar of traffic long forgotten, now all that was heard was the metal plated footsteps of the man he had been trailing walking along the sidewalk adjacent to him
I wonder what this mark can do, the church of humanity had a huge bounty on him, so I'm assuming he's a mutant, and a powerful one at that, maybe if I'm lucky I can get some good shots off and end this quickly, otherwise this could take awhile
Zero gripped his pistol in his hand, he could feel the rubber and plastic in it pushing back against his hand, he then took a deep breath, spun around the corner and fired 5 shots off at the man, the sound of them discharging from the barrel filled the air as if the bullets themselves were screaming as they flew towards the man
Vladimir was taking a late night stroll, he was still thinking over what the cat women told him about the Order, a group of anti-human mutants, right down his alley really, he just wasn't sure if he was ready to jump right back into the human killing game, it had been around 8 months since his last mission with the KGB and he his confidence was down lately, what he really needed was a battle to show himself that he was still the human hating death machine he always was
It's a peaceful night, if only I could be back in Russia and find human worth killing, not like slovenly, weak humans here but strong powerful human, one with muscle and gun not just fat lazy human, what I wouldn't give for true battle yet again to re-invigorate my drive
Just as he thought this he heard shots ring out, he reflexively let out a burst of magnetic energy, stripping the metal casings off the bullets and turning as they fell to the ground, standing about 10 ft away from him was a tall latin man, with a long black hair, holding a pistol, the way he held it was military style showing he definatly had training
This is perfect, just what I've been waiting for, this should at least help get me back in the mood for some serious destruction
"You just made my day"
He then clenched his hand forming the metal bullet casings into small metal balls and launched them blindingly fast at the assassin
Zero watched as his bullets flew true as ever straight towards the target, he was sure they would hit, it was inevitable now, they were moving much to fast to dodge and just as victory seem assured, an electric looking field shot out of the mark causing the metallic bullet casings to peel of it as though they were barely attached to the bullets, they then fell to the ground and the man turned to face him, a silver eyed monster of a man, he was around 6'9 6'10 and heavily musculatured, his face giving off a sick aura of total disgust and hatred while simultaneously expressing the utmost joy
What just happened, how did my bullets simply fall apart like that, gah I forgot this things a mutant, I'm really starting to get tired of these things, the worst thing is even with that slight demonstration I have no idea what this mutant can do, better test it out some more
Before he could think of a new strategy however, the metal casings turned into small metal balls and went soaring at him, he immediatly did a large front kick backflip over the flying balls and discharged a few more rounds from his pistol as he came down
The man demonstrated a feat of pure acrobatic excellence as he back flipped over the metallic balls, and then fired another barrage of bullets at him, Vladimir could have simply done the same thing over again but he liked to keep his battles original, he raised his hand and a mailbox next to him flew over and expanded itself into a metallic shield, the bullets hit and almost punched through the shield but with Vladimir's powers he was able to hold the shield intact
"Why not try that again, I mean it worked so well the first two times, don't you humans ever learn"
With a motion of his hand the shield transformed into metallic spikes and flew towards the assassin
I wonder how long I should toy with this dirty monkey before I finish him off, I do want to have some fun though and I don't really have anywhere to be, so lets see how long I can drag it out
