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.

"No sadly i can not" she said moving more into the shadow herself as sirns could be heard comming closer to the issue which had just taken place. "Still Sanctuary is not far from here, Have you been thare before?" she said Curiously as she looked over her shoulder and looked at the hedges that were oposite of them. She would go through them and continue to Santuary upon those grounds she would be unbotherd.
"Your telportation should get you out of here easily enough from the looks of it, still if you need a place to stay their is always a place for you at the sanctuary. They perged what remained of humans who lived thare, mostly a token few to appease the general Human population." She explained, even as she moved to the hedges, and formed an Aura blade, cutting through the hedge easily. "I would like to here more about your powers somtime if you don't mind, i enjoy the diffrences nature had given us" she said again with a smile.
The Sanctuary.After the words left the young mutant's mouth, Shade heard little more of the girl's speech. Instead, his mind was filled with the sights, sounds, and smells of the mutant refuge. It had been the first place he had visited when he had come to New York. Although at that time, the magnificent foyer had been in almost entirely destroyed, thanks to a raid on the place by several Stalkers bots. Snapping out of his daydream, Shade focused back on the Aura.
"Yes, I have been there." The shadow mutant said, leaving it at that. He wasn't sure if the girl knew of the Order, hidden beneath the mutant shelter. She looked a little young to be a member. Although, Isabel and the twins had to be around the same age. If she was a member, he would certainly find out in the future. He watched as Aura moved to the hedge, slicing through it easily with a materialized blade.
>"I would like to here more about your powers somtime if you don't mind, i enjoy the diffrences nature had given us"
"As you wish." Shade replied, returning the smile. "I'll follow you there from the shadows. Just in case any other humans decide to they wish to die tonight."
"We can only hope that they do, the More humans lie dead before now, the less will be able to hurt our people" She said mvoing through the hedge quickly, looking behind her she could already see the flashing lights of Squad cars as they pulled up. She did wonder what they would think when they realized somone had taken a single leg bone from the man, but their was no point in really finding out. Making her way down the bstreet she looked away a bit as a cop car sped down the street. They may not have conencted her to the fight but she was wnated on various other charges including killing police officers.
Making her way through the streets was uneventful for once and so it went quite quickly, it seemed no one wanted to play as she encountrd very few who even looke dlike they ahd ever seen a fight. Finnaly she saw the large golden Sanctuary doors and smiled, she had grown to enjoy seeing those doors, it was a symble that one day Mutants would rule the planet without contestment from the Humans. Walking up to the door she stretched her back a bit
"First time i was here, a guy calling himself DK saved me from a number of police officers who were after me at the time" She said figuring the Mutant was likely still close by, somwhare hidden in the shadows. SOmhow whenever she met somone they almost always ended up here.
As the young woman moved into the hedge, Shade slid back into the shadow and teleported to a darkened rooftop before the flash of police lights reached his darkened corner. Once there, he 'jumped' his way through the city, following Aura as she traveled towards the Sanctuary. About halfway to the mutant refuge, Shade could see the spires from his rooftop vantage point. Fighting the urge to appear inside those beautiful golden doors in less than five seconds, the shadow mutant remained watchful over the youth beneath him. A close cop car almost became Shade's latest victim as it neared the girl. However, it continued on its tragetory without so much as a brake light. Once the Aura had entered the golden doors, Shade teleported down into his favorite spot within the foyer. Stepping out of the shadow to reveal himself, the shadow mutant joined Aura as she finished her story.
"How nice of him." Shade replied with his stll rasping voice. He was still getting used to this whole talking thing again. Before the shadow mutant had decided to go AWOL, he hadn't exactly been the Sanctuary's chatter bug, but he spoke enough. Slowly, his voice and conversation would come back. Shade glanced down the foyer's floor until in ended in the desk of Lisa, the Sanctuary's secretary. Of course, she would remember him. Although, she might not recognize him in his current state.
"Getting around like that must make getting around the city a breeze" She said as she watched Shade teleport into the room. It really was a facinateing power to her, she noted that he seemed to prefer shaded area's to do this in. She was unsure if she should mention the order to him, his power could be invaluable to them, more so if he could take passengers. "You would certainly be able to assassinate very well" she commented casually, though it occurred to her that he might all ready be doing so from the way he fought. Remembering the Leg bone in her Hand she set the end on the ground and leaned on it a bit, testing it for what weight it would carry. It Seemed sturdy enough and with a good bleaching the imperfection coulf ne negated.
Thinking she thought maybe she could probe a bit to find out just how much he knew about Sanctuary, Many Mutants lived here and suspected something was going on but few really knew of the Orders actions under their feet. "I met Isabel to, an Interesting person" She said knowing Isabel was likely widely known outside of the Sanctuary due to her frequent human killings and tendency to play with the police. At the Same time she was a high ranking Order member as far as Aura knew. Auira had just met Syn as well, she might mention that name depending on how the Telaporters response was. She looked over at Lisa and wondered if she could just ask her, the womans seemed to know everything else that went on here, Aura still ahd trouble beleiveing she was human.
