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.

Daria laughed and double checked the locks on her car.
"Not like I had a better way to spend my day. I mean, spending my last day of life locked up with kids, a few of which could have a deadly...contagious disease? Joy of joys" she grabbed his hand and let him lead her to the Danger Room.
(in the front yard after Daria took Hairpin to the zoo)
Hairpin dashes around the yard with glee, Dafi chasing after her. After a few minutes of fun, they stopped. "Dafi, go play with Sarah, I wanna sit and think a bit." said the little girl. The bunny bounded off through the catdoor of the front door. Hairpin sat for awhile, looking up into the night sky. She looked suddenly at the opening in the sewer, several yards away. It had not yet been repaired from the first Blunderbore attack. Curiously, Hairpin walked over to it, looking deep into the hole. A giant clay arm shot out, and drew the frightened girl inside.
Hairpin's unconscious body flew out of the sewers, and she landed on the ground where she had been previously playing. Bits of clay and dirt clung to her kimono. When she wakes up, she will not remember anything about the battle, due to the bump on the head she sustained int Blunderbore's home. Her third eye dissapeared, and Hairpin was now in a deep coma.
Hairpin woke up, and rubbed her head. Vassago had helped her back, although she didn't know he was a "bad guy". She sat up and the clay and dirt flew off her kimono suddenly. Hairpin looked at her now clean kimono with surprise. She moved her hair in front of her, now able to control it. With pure glee, she ran into the front door of the mansion.
*After Wire had grabbed some breakfast, he decided to start his usual workout. Joey, his little brother, was still sleeping in the big bed the two shared in their room. Wire pushed open the front double doors of the mansion, nodding to Johnathon as he went. He walked across the grass to the middle of the lawn. After sitting down in the sun for a few minutes, he took off his sweatpants and t-shirt, revealing just his bare chest and some gym shorts. Wire completed his abdominal and run excercises within an hour and then collapsed on the grass.* "I miss mom..." *He said out loud to no one as he thought about being away from his mother for so long after his father had kicked him out, along with Joey. He was a grown man, but the family was close, as most Latin families are. Wire sighed and put his head down on the grass, lazily looking up at the clear blue sky and hearing the bell for class to ened from inside the mansion.*

Daria walked beside Jack on the way up to the mansion. She thought perhaps she was the only one who smelled the smoke because of her heightened senses.
"You'll like it here." She was telling him. "It's a safe place." Daria felt that all mutants had one thing in common. Fear. The world was so mean to them all, whether they were "good" or "bad" so she felt as if they all looked for safety in some form.
James started his akward walk up to the Front Doors. As he walks he sees a familar face it was Jack, and he was walking with one of the mutants he was talking to in the city. "Hey Jack, how's it goin' buddy?" hollered James as he ran to catch up with the two, because he figured it would be less akward to enter the building with a group than by himself.

Daria smelled James before he apprached and turned just as he spoke. She smiled and waved as the boy approached. He looked younger than Jack, younger than her even.
Looking at the woman, or cat, James was fascinated by her ears and tail. The tail would be awesome because it would help with balance while fihting. James went off into his own little day dream about having a tail instead of his ability. After the dream ended James extended his hand to shake Daria's. "How do you do? My name is James, but you can call me J.J. Thats what people called me in Detroit anyway."

Daria laughed. He seemd to have a lot of energy. "My name is Daria Strong. You can call me...Daria.." she trailed off and laughed. "Detroit, huh? I'm from Washington D.C. What brings you all the way here?"
