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.

Gorgon hissed, shielding her eyes against the sudden flare of light. She focused in on Orion as the cause of the disruption- after all, someone else was attacking him, that must mean someone else was as annoyed about this as she was. She started towards the him slowly and very stealthily.
Siren is staying carefully with Delphi, listening to the different music being produced by the multiple persons here... and he can't help but notice a very familiar tune. In the flash of light, he catches a glimpse of her.
*he entered the darkness and was suprised by a blind flash off light, nice to know that tricity was here....he stood for a moment and rubbed the glare out, he looked around and noticed many ppl something was going down.........focusing on the brute and ire he could see ire as he stabbed orion,.....* "this is not good he said" *he rushed twords ire and orion, he slid in between the two and spun with a kick to ire sending him back......orion was enraged, chaos was unsure what to expect so he jumped back*
Recognising the large man who he fought off intruders with before, "named Orion or something", Jordan thought, He draws three throwing knives and with a combanation of his phisical prowess and powers sends them at Orions attacker, one after another, with about an inch gap between the knives.
*Delphi easily enough finds Tricity in the mess occuring outside, Delphi helps her up off her ass.* Tricity are you ok? *Followed by another question.* How can we help? *Delphi asks surveying the chaos going on and getting bits and pieces of tons of information future and emotional wise. It is like two very emotionally angry and poweful mutants are going at it and Del doesn't pice herself or Siren as helpful in a fight, but locating and evacuating any kids . . . that they could do.*
Orion roared out in pain from the gouge in his side. His anger fueled his power even more. A great wind kicked up around him and those who could see saw the flames erupt around his entire body. Chaos backed away some more. Orions eyes scowered the vicinity for Ire. He was already on his feet and running hard at Orion. Big mistake. Orions pillar-like arm swung like a club, fast than Ire had ever seen it move before. Orion barely caught Ires shoulder with the strike.

The glancing blow set Ire back a step. Recovering, he quickly went in to a running aerial kick which hit Orion's chest making him stumble back. Ire was at a loss, he needed to find his blades. Knowing this he ran off into the general area where one of them had landed.
*tricity stood up with del and looked at her for the first time in a long while.* yes...yes im fine. *she saw siren as well and nodded toward him.* i think you guys should head to the house to make sure the other dont come outside, curious as to what is happening. *tricity's body was tingling as the electricity ran through her. instead of the familiar blue ora she was known to have when using a lot of energy, she now had a white glow around her and her eyes were not black as they usually turned, they were now silver.* plus...i dont know how this power of mine is gonna work and i would prefer if you guys didnt have to experience it if possible.
"Will do." Siren says grimly. He wants to go and see Gorgon, but he knows that the students have to come first... for now at least. "C'mon Del- help me find the way."
Gorgon veers off towards Tricity, who is emitting a glow. To her mind it makes sense- the light in the area is gone. Obviously this woman has taken it into her. And Gorgon intends to set it free. She slips up behind Tricity, nails at the ready, her hair hissing lightly, teeth bared.
*the rage he could sense from orion, started to turn something awful inside of chaos......before he knew what would happen he was struck in the arm with a dagger,....two more flew in and he ducked on in time and the other scratched across his face........blood started too pour our of his arm and face......he reach over and grabbed the dagger and pulled it from his arm*
******YOU WILL ALWAYS BE WEAK*******
*the dark glow had returned once more to chaos, is time he was filled with anger and it consumed him........he could see tricitys aura but something was amiss someone was behind her..he lobbed the dagger in that direction...his aim was true and would find the target if they didnt move*
Zephyr sees his daggers hit the new person who intercepted their flight, and senses the dagger fly back at him. He also sees a very strange looking woman sneak up on Tricity. He concentrates heavily, bending the daggers path, directing it so the handle will strike the strange woman in the head, and silmoultaniously moving himself out of the way. He staggers for a moment, and then colapses.
*Delphi warns Tricity to be careful very seriously before she left and then leads Siren out of the pitch black to the mansion in the direction of a lot of very confused and worried kids.*
Ire sped toward the tree that Kismet was lodged in. Yanking hard he was able to pull it free. He spun looking for Orions hulking form. It appeared Orion wasnt as foolish as Ire though. Orion had sprinted to fetch his own sword. His back was to Ire though. Ires eagle eyes caught sight of his other sword embedded into Orion truck. Pounding toward the truck as fast as he could go he used momentum and his body weight to free his second sword as he barreled toward Orions form. Raising his blades to strike orions back he grinned beneath his mask. Orion wretched his broadsword free and spun fast, pivoting on one foot. Swinging his blade heavily he made contact with Ires two swords. The sparks spit light into the dark night air. Just enough for everyone to see both faces intent on destroying the other. Orions pure muscle won this round. He forced Ire to back up a few steps. Ire however wasnt done yet. Using the force Orion gave him he redirected it upwards via pushing up with his legs. He was suprised how high he was. Looking down he found his target. Bringing his blade about again in an arc for another strike he began to swing down. Orion was not going to be doen it this easily either. His massive frame squatted only for a moment then hurtled itself skyward, blade at the ready. This would be one devistating swing if either of them succeeded.
*tricity felt the metal of something coming toward her now that her power was enhanced. she ducked backward, spinning in one moment. as she turned, tricity stopped dead in her tracks, seeing gorgon.* what the hell are you doing here??
