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.

Raphael lead the way quietly up the stairs pointing down the opposite hallway. “That way is the ladies’ dormitories and right before them are the senior members of the mansion’s rooms. Miss Tricity’s room is there, it also serves as an office.”
He then led the way down the hallway designated for the male dormitories. Most of the rooms were taken, they did seem to have more male occupants than females, and some of the rooms had yet to be prepared for new occupants, as they had recently also had a couple departures. He stopped at the third door from the end, closed his eyes for a moment and when he opened them they glowed a soft green. He gave a small shake of his head as he saw the green haze through the wall, the visage of the occupant’s life-aura as they slept.
He moved down to the next pair of doors, checking the rooms in a similar fashion. Finding one unoccupied, and unlabeled, he closed his eyes once more and gave a shake of his head, ‘turning off’ his life-aura sight. The gesture was more one of habit than necessity.
“This one’s empty. Bed aughta already be made an’ everything. Any questions?”
Deathstar gave off a faint smile as ralph mentioned her, she Thought ralph was okay but since he likes fade she likes to annoy him ,but Tagged along trying to be nice to ralph and get to know darius, she followed as they went upstairs towards the dorm,
When ralph mentioned there weren't anymore rooms left didn't that kaine guy leave, his room should empty.. trying to help out ralph and Darius with finding a room....as we kept walking Deathstar saw ralph use some of his powers and was amazed by it but, didn't want to let ralph know that..
You should stay here darius we would need somebody like you here.. she asks darius as she is face to face with him
The glow from Raphaels eyes stopped as he point to a door. "Thanks for everything you have been a great help and I'm glad I know two names around here already" he said replying to Ralph "Oh and no questions as of yet but it would be great if you could come visit in the mornining, I've got to make a few calls to get some of my belongings sent to here from storage, they should be here by the early morning it would be cool if you could stop by for awhile and I'll show you what I've done to the place , oh and Star don't you worry I'll be sticking around for awhile you should swing by tomorrow too". Darius said while reaching out and shaking Ralphs hand and gave Deathstar a wave "You have both been great and have made me feel so welcome, can wait to see you both again" he said as he turned and opened the door to see a quite sizeable well furnished room. "Well see you two tomorrow hopefully" he said steping inside what he hope would become his new home. {OOC: Making new thread Darius's Room in Bedrooms cause this ones done, hope to see you guys there}
alright!! well, if you need help furnishing ths place, you know I'm right down the hall doing nothing as usual, so just stop by not trying to let her feelings show, she waves and walks away hoping that he would come by and stop pass...
Deathstar never been nice to anyone before but this new guy darius she just met does something to her...
Raphael tipped his head. "No problem." He said simply, then shook the other man's hand and watched the door swing closed. He then watched Deathstar meander down the hallway. Outside of the single jaded comment earlier in their small gathering, she had been quite tame. He shook his head for a moment and went down to his own undecorated door and disappeared through it.
He spent a moment hanging up his coat, then reemerged and returned the radio to Johnathon, and set off to wander the near silent hallways once more.
Deathstar called out Ralph's name before he headed back in his dorm Ralph, lets chat shall we...its something I've been wanting to tell ya.. she gave off a faint smile as she asks ralph to walk with her so she can talk to him about something...
"Mmhmm?" He answered, short simple and too the point. Though he did not entirely want to give her the time of day, as their last encounter had left a bad taste in his mouth and reports of her exploits from Jenny were not exactly foreign. He also did not want to start something of the bad nature with her either, especially in the dead of night with sleeping occupants all around. He walked over to the young woman and gestured for her to keep walking. "Let's walk. No point in remaining here where we might wake someone. What's on your mind?"
Look!!..I've been thinking....Ummm!! it was real hard for deathstar to talk with ralph because of their past.. Umm!1..yea i was thinking..I shouldn't came at you the way I did...and I!!.....I!!...you what i'm trying to say deathstar was trying to apolohize but can't get it out, I'm only doing this because I don't hate you, or dislike you, but i just don't get along with your girlfriend...I mean,...its sumthin about I don't like...So its unfair that my dislike with her, went to you also.. she tell ralph while turmng away not trying to submit to him, cause thats one thing that she hates and she said she wil never do is apologize.. I don't ask that we become vast friends but its a start, since i'm trying to become a X-men, I have to learn to work with others...and umm yea..so I'm sorry she instantly flinched as she apologized... god!!......I hate doing that.. she says as she place her head in her palms
Raphael led them away from the dormitories and back to the fronthall, taking a seat on the stairs as Deathstar began her spiel, and stumble through an apology. He listened to her quietly and let her words run through his mind for several long moments. He still did not like the way they had met, or the way she had acted when both of them were waiting for Tricity. He watched her flinch and bury her face in her palms. At this moment, if she were someone he liked, or even felt neutrally towards, would be the moment he would put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"That's fine. I accept your apology," He said, resting his arms across his knees. "We got off to a bad start, twice. And it would seem that you still have problems with Jenny, a superiority complex. Not that it is a bad thing, merely something that needs to be kept in check. It's something about being an adult. But, as you specified earlier, other people's feelings, or our dispositions towards them, should not color the way we see others. I've not forgotten your brash and rude behavior when we met the first couple times, but I am willing to look beyond it if you have changed your attitude as it would seem you have."
He stopped and took a breath. You're hardly older than she is... where do you get off preaching about being adult? 'Cause I am adult.... Riiiight, so adult you're gonna run off to the fighting ring again. I did make the agreement, and keeping one's word is the adult thing to do. Raphael had the quick mental conversation with himself before speaking again.
"Where does that put us? Have you changed any since we first met?" he asked.
Well!!...Im not gonna change overnight...so you will have to bare with me, I 'll give you my word that I will try not to insult you, .. she said to ralph as she sat across from him, the first time we met, I was an angry person, I still am but, I know how to keep it under control, but the thing that pissed me off about being here, is nobody acknowledged, everyone was quick to judge me and not give me a chance,..So i lived up what everybody expected me to do!!..and thats to be an annoyance.. she says with a softer tone in her voice,
Fade, jenny whatever her name is, I just don't like her, but I will try to get along with her for the team.. she sighs as if this the hardest thing she ever did... but as far as my personality goes, this is me...like it or not, but like I said i will try to get along ,and maybe and I do mean maybe we can start some kind of relationship.... she holds her hand to ralph as if she is calling a truce....
He watched her babble out an excuse over how she acted the first time they had crossed paths. He opened his mouth to point out that she had walked into a conversation, even pressed herself between Jenny and himself, before either of them really had much of a chance to judge someone. He snapped his mouth shut with a soft click of his teeth and continued to listen to her.
He watched her extend her hand out towards him and simply stared at it for a moment before reaching out and clasping it for a brief shake before releasing it again. "I fully understand that someone is not going to change overnight, though I am also capable of seeing that you are attempting to change. This conversation tonight is proof enough of that. Though, I've a request. You mentioned that it pisses you off when a person jumps to a conclusion about you without giving you a chance to prove yourself otherwise, well, my request is that you extend that courtesy to others. Provide them with the chance to prove themselves, and postpone your own judgement for awhile. Could you honor that request?"
Deathstar takes her hand, and puts them in her pocket, she tries to give ralph a response, but she waits and thinks about it and looks around the room, thinking to herself how can I not be judgemental, well i hate to say it well he's got a point.. I can honor your request but only one condition, you gotta accept me for who i am!, i'm not giddy or very nice to people, I have my ways just like you have your ways, you must accept me for me, and i will not past judgement on people... she said with a serious look on her face as if she is doing this to change herself around
So do we have a deal? she says while looking him up and down expecting him to turn down the offer
Raphael nodded, without hesitation and stood up. "Yeah, I can agree to that." He stated simply. A short and to the point response. Of course, he was fine with letting her be herself. In part he could see a portion of himself in what she had just said. Before he had come to the mansion, and after he had run off from boarding school, he had grown an incredibly thick skin, and was anything but giddying and nice. It was a part of him that surfaced only when he was faced with the ring, and a part of him that would surface again in the near future.
"Did you have something else you wanted to talk about?" He asked, offering a hand towards her to help her up. He had suddenly felt like a walk, preferably outdoors, despite the rain.
she took his hand and stood up.. Umm!!..No that was all I had to talk about.....I guess I'll see ya around..I might even stop pass the danger room and wacth you all in action...have a good one.. she turned away and headed for the stairway
