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.

Sam found himself on the basketball courts of the mansion by himself. Thinking about what has happened over the past couple of weeks Sam was surprised he didn’t really have any body to shoot hoops with. Most of the people he met were girls, which wasn’t a problem, but hardly any of them lived at the mansion, so spending time with them there was kind of limited.
Sam ran up for a dunk, he jumped but the ball hit the rim so hard it flew off in the opposite direction, as it rolled to the grass, Sam eyed it thinking that he would have to walk all the way over there. That was when he noticed Nathan his pyro-mancing sparring buddy walking by. Sam clapped his hands around his mouth and yelled “hey Nathan how bout tossing the ball over here?”

Nathan was walking by enjoying the day when he heard someone call his name. He turned and saw Sam. He noticed a basketball had near him. Sam must have been playing basketball and the ball must have gotten away from him. Nathan noticed that Sam was playing by himself, so he picked up the ball and walked over to where Sam was standing.

Sam smiled as Nathan asked if he could join him for basketball. “Yea, you can join. I was kind of getting tired of playing by myself.” Sam thought for a second, "so you just want to shoot around? Or play some one on one?”

"How about we play horse? But I need to warm up first."
Nathan started to move around a little bit while dribbling the basketball. He took a few shots at the basket. He made a couple of them so he was happy. It had been a while since he had played basketball. So he figured that horse would be the best game for the both of them.

Sam smiled as Nathan dribbled the ball a bit after suggesting horse. Sam was really glad he finally had some one to play with. Sam decided to stretch for a bit while Nathan practiced his shots. Sam was a little surprised when Nathan had sunk more that a few baskets. “Ready when you are, you can have the first shot to.” He smiled again, Sam’s game was basketball but, when he played he was far better down by the rim than at the top of the key, he could make the two pointers but, if Nathan wanted to win he was going to have to make the threes.

Now that Nathan was decently warmed up and fairly certain he would not pull anything he took his first shot. Nathan started the game off with a standard free throw shot. He was only slightly surprised when it went in. Quickly getting the rebound, he passed the ball back to Sam so he could take his shot.
