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.

Lutz had been working on the mansion’s wall for hours now so he decided he would check out this big abandoned building. As he began walking toward the entrance he noticed that above the door read ‘Madberry Mental Ward’ he knew mental ward was another name for insane asylum. This building was definitely aged. Quickly Lutz reached the door and attempted to open it, it didn’t budge. Quickly he grabbed marble and tossed it at the door, it blasted the handle off and he stepped in after opening the door.
Inside the huge building he looked around, a twisting stairwell was over to the right, along with a doorway where he could barely see a few filthy pots and to the left he saw a rotting door and glass all over the place from some smashed in windows. Quickly he walked toward the stairwell when e heard a loud scratching sound as the rotting door fell apart and scratched the door jam. Lutz laughed and kept walking stepping up the first step he listened to see if he could hear anything upstairs.
Madberry Mental Ward, Previously owned and supervised by Lyndal industries, Cailyn's father. Now it was a rundown old building, filthy and dirty. All the documentation of previous patients was taken away by the company that her father owned, moved to another position. Cailyn was drawn to this place as a moth to a flame. She came here because it felt like a safe place. A place where her father would never check for her, a safe place to practice her control over her power.
She was in the top office of the building, floating with milky white eyes. Her song echoed through the hallways as her powers where fully operational, all limitations lifted. If anybody would move into the range of her powers, all hell would break lose in the mind of the adventurer. The surroundings would be twisted in akward things or horrid nightmares and nothing would be the same. This was the perfect defense ofcourse since people who would encounter these things would normaly back of or run scared. Her mind had no limits and her fantasies, nightmare and dreams where on the lose looking for something to influence.
She sensed that somebody entered the premices. Seemingly a jolly figure who thought it would be fun to trespass and explore. The first test subject for Hymn. Cailyn named herself that when she wasn't herself anymore, she named herself that when the whispers and voices spun a tune and influenced her body till a point she could not resist. The whispers started to invade the boys mind, Telling him all kinds of thing. Back of, enter if you dare, be afraid, Hell is here; where some of the many whispers that where sent to the boy. If he dared to continue, more measures would be taken to keep him away from her.
Soon lutz heard a quiet humming noise as a woman's voice entered his mind saying things like back off, enter if you dare, be afraid, Hell is here. He thought it was just the wind and his imagination. he continued up the stairs, hearing the quiet creaks of the old wooden stairs. He couldnt shake the feeliong that he was not alone though, and on top of that this place gave off an erie feeling.
Lutz reached the top of the stairs and looked around seeing the solitary confinement room, he walked to it and opened it a little peering inside at the dirt covered walls. the padding beaten back from numerous patients being locked inside. quickly he turned around and left the door alone along with the darkened room.
The boy didn't respond to the basic boo out of a horror movie. It would be time to crank it up a bit and try to get the boy to leave. If he was still to stuborn to leave after this , then the big guns would be used and all hell would break out. Hymn focused her powers on the infiltrators mind and started to pull something out of her hat. She decided to put him in a perpetual 9 room square which would stay that way unless the boy figured out the riddle that was behind this misshif. Her hands started twitching as she put he mojo on the young man. In these room, everytime the boy would walk straight through 3 of the identical rooms he would encountered a ravine that could only be flown over. Seeing as the boy didn't have wings of somekind crossing them would be tricky. Even though this happened in his mind, Hymn made sure it looked real to the boy.
Lutz had been walking and suddenly he was in a room with a ravine before him. With water in it he could not pass. Even if he could pass this thing, being wet he would be vulnerable to any hazards that lay past this obstacle.
he looked around and could see no exit, so he just yelled " Hey, if you want to play with a Lutz marble you might get hurt!" and he grabbed a few marbles from his pocket and threw them at the wall watching them explode the smoke taking a while to clear so he just kicked at where he threw them. His foot hitting solid wall.
Noticing that his attack did nothing he turned and left the room and kept walking and met another ravine. he turned again to look and saw each way he went would end in ravines, leaving him with one option. "after this thought he jumped off the edge of the ravine.
The boy figured it out. Atleast he had courage, but it was time to see if he had the brains too. Hymn let the boy think he plumited through the ravine gently landing on the floor of a black room with a door that would lead to a very dark and ominous room with 3 archways. In every archway there where different numbers or gems in different colors present. The archway to the left had 2 blue gem in it. The archway in front had 4 red gems in it and the archway to the right had 3 green ones. In the middle was a slate that read: "Your wisdom will be put to the test in the chamber ahead. Use your lifetime experience: from the crawling infant; to the man standing tall; and finally to the old man-leaning on his cane."
This was something Cailyn herself could never conjure up in her normal state, this was clearly under the influence of her whispers. Nevertheless, this was her training ground and he was trespassing. She could not be held responsible for what she was doing to the boy, even if it was scarring his mind for life.
Lutz looked up at the arches and sat in confusion for about 15 minutes then smiled and looked around. "What, nothing that can hurt me? Can you even hear me?" he laughed and pulled out two marbles holding them between his pointing and middle finger then his middle and ring. "I don’t trust whoever is doing this so I will just go with a safety precaution.
He went over and looked in the left arch. "Nothing interesting huh?" he continued down to the middle arch and looked in. "heh, Nothing again?" he chuckled and tossed one marble through the arch. Now continued down to the right arch and just walked in silently after grabbing a handful of marbles out. "Just gotta be ready for if you decide to get physical."
