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.

You can play as a mutant, human, or Adapted— one of the rare humans who nullify mutant powers by their very existence. Goodies, baddies, and neutrals are all welcome.

The cab pulled up to the gates and he smiled as he told them good bye. Otieno got out first and walked up to the gates. He looked back at Iron as he got out and then looked back at the mansion. He pushed the buzzer and waited for the voice that would be coming over it. A slight smile passed oer his lips as he recognized the voice.
"Hey its Torqueo Angelus. I have a new arrival that would like to stay here. We can wait out here for you."
After speaking through the little box he turned back to Iron Mouth and took a few steps closer to him.
"I am kinda staying here. I don't have my own room and I kinda just show up and leave whenever. Though I believe they have some rules or another for residence... I just kinda skirt around them myself. I don't plan on being a student here so I just do my own thing. The few I have met here seem nice. You should try and meet someone named Ghost while your here. If you like me you'll love her."

The mansion looks so big and full of luxuries things ... much diferent from the life in streets . seemed a confortable place to stay and meet peoples ... he also can learn more about his powers , and if they have a library he could learn a lot of ramdon knoledge...
thinking in all the things the mansion could give to him , he noticed a little sad that Torq dont stay there for longs time, so if he stay in the mansion he cant see Torq so often ...
¨ you will leave the mansion again soon , right?¨ * expecting a ¨no¨ for answer...*
Torq dont answer that question... Fausto suposse that the answer would be ¨no¨
¨i will miss you so much , you are my best friend . i havent a friend in a lost of time ¨ *looking the ground with a sad face*
but changing again to his cheerful always self he asked ¨Ghost is your girlfriend? is a nice girl ?¨

He didn't answer either quetion for a long while. Finally he turned to the boy and let a small smile warp his face once more, "I won't be leaving right away. Though I most likely won't stay long. If you ever want to find me just hang around the roof top... though don't tell anybody that. I dont want to many people bothering me."
He took a long breath and then shook his head slowly, "And no she isnt my girlfriend. She is just a friend. Though you are right in thinking I like her its not something that could ever be. It would be to dangerous for her to be with someone like me. And yes she is a nice girl"
He stopped a moment and looked through the gate wondering what was taking so long, "And as for me being your best friend. You will find many here that I am sure will qualify as a better person to fill that role. I am not a very nice person. You probably shouldn't hang around me to often. I don't want to be the one that corrupts you."

OOC: from now on thought will be in italic ( but without space)
Torq is a little predictable , he is always saying thing like ¨i am a danger man,you should keep away from me ¨ he is so kind when he worried for others and he is always pretending wanted to be alone and be the lonely wolf ... i like wolfs and if you domestic them , they change into puppy... but they always conserve his killer instincts . he dont want to hurt others peoples thats all ... he is very kind and good.
¨well well if you say she inst your girlfriend ...but is in your face ... you cant deny it , is writing in your forehead with a glow red pen , it say LOVE . *laughting*¨ just kidding dong get angry ...¨
¨ey Torq we can get in that easy ? they dont use a aplication or something like that ? this mansion seens so expensive ... like a private and expensive school...¨

"No my friend. I can deny the fact that she is my girlfriend because she isn't. What I can't deny is the fact that I do have feelings for her. That doesn't matter though. She deserves better then I and I could never ask her to be with me. They say its better to love and be left then never love at all... I would prefer not to be left and just supress those feelings. I have never felt like this before and there is no reason to start now."
"And yes it is pretty easy to get in here. I mean once in there are some forms you will need to sign but nothing much really. They want to help others with gifts and they do that by taking them in and giving them a safe environment to learn in. It is private and exclusive... you pretty much have to be a mutant to be here."
Neena responded to Torqueos' announcement with a fair amount of curiosity. She hadn't seen more than a glimpse of him in the past few days, but hadn't a chance to see if Ghost knew where he was. Hearing that he'd brought in a new arrival piqued her inquisitive nature even further.
Even as she approached the gates, she used the walk to examine the two youths. The second, and shorter, youth appeared to be a young teen. Black hair, and raggedy clothes..... It was hard to tell the difference these days between rough-worn apparel and modern style.
The two were talking, and both smiled freely, which in turn brought a smile to her own face. However, upon reaching the gates, she thought she caught a hint of something else in Torqueos' eyes. She couldn't be sure, given what she knew of his mutation, so she didn't call attention to it.
Instead she greeted the pair with her usual teasing.
"Well now, bringing home strays already, eh? Careful, m'friend, that tends to indicate putting down roots."
She keyed in the gate code to let them enter, then held out her hand to the newcomer.
"Hi there."
She then turned to Torqueos, to let him introduce his friend.

He looked at Fuasto and smiled lightly as neena stretched her hand out to meet the young man.
"That is the Amazing Iron Mouth. and this is Neena. She is who you will need to talk to concerning everything about this place because I know nothing else past this point on."
He turned to Neena and shook his head slowly, "And No Neena. He needed a place to stay and I knew he could stay here. I might stay a few nights and then after that I am out of here."
He turned to Iron and looked at him a moment, "I think I will let Neena get you set up. If you need anything just try where I told you or ask for someone named Ghost. She might know where I am."
With that he was gone. He took off into the mansion grounds looking for someone.

¨nice to meet you Neena. my name is Fausto Martense or Iron Mouth ,i like the two ...¨
Fausto looked a second to Torq and he winking an eye to him while taking a long breath ... after that he looked at Neena ...and he start to shoot her with rapid speaking questions
¨well i have a couples of very very important questions for you... whem is dinner time ? the mansion have a library? how many mutants live and study here? the mansion have butlers and maidens? how big is the mansion? the students learn about normal and bored things like geography ?¨ he stop a second to breath again and continue more slowly ¨ and a ultimate very important thing ... what was your first impression of me ?¨
"Nice to meetcha, Iron Mouth. Now that is a unique name. Is that a clue about your mutation."
She watched Torqueo disappear. She had a feeling she knew where he was headed, or rather, who he was looking for.
¨well i have a couples of very very important questions for you... "
Neena turned her attention back to the boy. "Go for it, kiddo."
"whem is dinner time ? the mansion have a library? how many mutants live and study here? the mansion have butlers and maidens? how big is the mansion? the students learn about normal and bored things like geography ? and a ultimate very important thing ... what was your first impression of me ?¨
Neena's grin nearly tripled in width, and she covered her mouth for a moment to keep from laughing aloud. When she finally spoke again, spurts of chuckles still punctuated her speech.
"In order asked," and she ticked off points on her fingers, "No set time, you eat when you feel like it. Yes, a rather large library. Really, really big. Yes we have normal high school classes as well. And...."
She paused to supress another chortle. "My first impression is that you are a very cheerful kid. Welcome to Xavier's Institute for Gifted Youngsters, Iron Mouth. So, Torqueos said you need somewhere to stay for awhile?"

OOC:TA leave so i think is my urn ... Neena let me know when you want to end this thread ... IM can talk forever jejeje ...
¨stop a moment ... you say that in the mansion ,meal time is when you feel hungry? i am always hungry , i am gluttony itself. i can eat all i want ... this is heaven? Torq kill me with these uppercut and i am in paradise now..*laughting* just kidding...but really what a amazing place to stay...¨
i give her a good impression , i hope everybody in this places think the same ...
¨well... i lived in the streets a couple of years so i dont really need a place to stay ... but i want to meet new peoples with powers like me , and there is the better place to meet them...*continue a little sadly* i just dont wanna be alone anymore...¨
¨stop a moment ... you say that in the mansion ,meal time is when you feel hungry? i am always hungry , i am gluttony itself. i can eat all i want ... this is heaven? Torq kill me with these uppercut and i am in paradise now..."
Neena couldn't help but chuckle a bit at that. She made a mental note to increase the budget for food, just in case.
"just kidding...but really what a amazing place to stay... well... i lived in the streets a couple of years so i dont really need a place to stay ..."
Neena raised an eyebrow, a bit confused by that logic.
"...but i want to meet new peoples with powers like me , and there is the better place to meet them..." He seemed to droop a bit as he added, "i just dont wanna be alone anymore..."
"Well then, let's see what we can do about that." She smiled and moved to put one arm around his shoulders, to lead him toward the front door. "Two years on the street, eh? That sounds about where I started, actually. How old are ya, kiddo?"

¨i am 15 years old , well ... not really my birthday is in this month . i still at 14 years old.¨ Fausto look to his hand trying to count with his fingers... ¨yes i am 14 years old , a few days and i have to make a party!!!¨
¨you lived in street too? i hate the winters... and how was your form to obtain money or food ? i can , literally eat all the thing i want so ... i dont had problems with foods... i like to makes littles shows to earn a few coins ...some humans likes to see a mutant making a show with his powers... others no ... ¨
¨what happen to Torq ? he is always saying things like *trying to imitate Torqueo·s voice* is better if you stay away from me ... ¨

Neena grinned; he was just so enthusiastic about everything, it was contagious.

"Eat anything, eh? Well, that explains the nickname," she remarked. "And yes, I haunted the backstreets for quite a while. Winters? Yeah..... not so much fun, really. As for money, I stole, like most do. I like your way much better, though. Sounds like more fun, and more honest."
She left it at that, not wanting to make it sound like she approved of her past life. Also she didn't elaborate on how extensively her thieving ways progressed, nor the mixed rewards such a life inevitably reaped.
¨what happen to Torq ? he is always saying things like is better if you stay away from me ... ¨
Neena glanced up at the roof as they approached the front door. "I'm sure he's looking for his friends," she replied. "And yes, he's still coming to terms with his mutation. Sometimes it takes a while to figure things out as a mutant, and humanity makes it harder. But he'll figure it out."
She smiled reassuringly, hoping Iron Mouth would accept that explanation.
"All right, kiddo, let's get you set up then." She led him inside, and to a table with a stack of New Resident folders on it. "I know you said you didn't need a room," she said as she handed him a folder, "but we have plenty of room here. A kid your age really does need somewhere solid to sleep. Have you given consideration to going back to school?"

¨yes, is a more honest way to live , i want to become the ruler of world to change it and erase all the injustices ... so i have to start with littles things like these. making shows is soo funny and i like to be with peoples , i always dislike to stay alone ... in shows like that i can earn money , have fun and meet new people . tree bird with a stone ¨
¨well ... i dont know what is your concept of solid but... streets are solid , very solid if you ask me *winking a eye to her while smiling* but yes... i want to sleep in a confortable bed sometime ...in the mansion , you have a complete room for you? without room partners?¨
¨school , what is that? *laughting* i forget that thing exist... i dindt though in start school again ... school is soo boring ... i only like history because you can learn about lots of peoples that tried to conquer the world ¨

Neena chuckled. "Planning to conquer the world already, eh? Well, I guess you're right then. Gotta start somewhere."
¨well ... i dont know what is your concept of solid but... streets are solid , very solid if you ask me, but yes... i want to sleep in a confortable bed sometime ...in the mansion , you have a complete room for you? without room partners?¨
"If that's what you'd like, yep. We still have some single rooms open." She guessed that even someone who didn't want to be alone would want some private time sometimes.
¨school , what is that?" She laughed along with him. [/i]"i forget that thing exist... i dindt though in start school again ... school is soo boring ... i only like history because you can learn about lots of peoples that tried to conquer the world."[/i]
"You're stuck on this world conquest thing, aren't ya?" She shook her head. "Well, we'll see then. I hear ya on the boring class thing, but some of ours are pretty exciting." She smiled at him. "It is a school of mutants, after all."
She opened the front door and motioned for him to precede her, then headed toward the table with the New Resident forms.[/color]
