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.

Shana had been to the mansion a few nights before all ready so she knew where it was and the layout of the place as well, at least from the outside. Shana was somewhat directionally challenged and had trouble navigating all but her more practiced routes of which she had none in the city. They had called ahead to the Mansion for her arrival, she felt bad that most of her actual paperwork was forged to hide what she considered a genetic mistake, still it had been enough to get on a plane into the country, so the documents had to be good she reasoned to herself as she kept walking down the street, she had been staying in a hotel for a few days, simply so she could get used to the area and to the massive number of people in the city. Her mother had told her actually having to confront people like this would be healthy for her, her counselor had disagreed, but in a rare moment of courage Shana had chosen to jump in on the latter and see what happened.
Looking up she realized she had arrived at the mansion, checking her appearance she smoothed out the knee length black skirt she wore. She had always been tought to at least try and make a good first impression, though her nervousness and doubts were already playing their melody's in her head. Closing her eyes and gripping the pentagram on her necklace for a moment, she rang the door bell with a green tipped finger and waited for a response. She had kept her long blue hair down, its tips nipping at her ankles like a blue outline around her, it was shiny and healthy and surprisingly natural, it had for some odd reason come with her mutation making her more visible then she wanted all ready. She had been told their were a few people that could help get her started living at Xavoirs, she understood the point of this, you had to know who was under your roof or it might get dangerous if more dangerous types of people got in. She was sure a powerful Mutant could level any home if they had a few moments and were angry enough. Pulling her pink fitted shirt down a bit, she did her best to hide her nervousness with a soft shimmery smile.
Her mother had done most of the arrangements so she was unsure just how much they knew on her already, though she knew her Mother would not have exposed her secret. Running her fingers through her hair she wonderd, if she should have put her hair up for this. Doing her best to push her worries aside as she was already thare and waiting she tried to think of how good the mansion would be for her, both as a mutant and in other ways. Perhaps she would finnaly be able to get over her terrible fear of people. Looking up at the noon sky, Shana could just barely see the sun in the sky, hidden by several clouds, though it was quite warm anyway. She ahd heard their was a placed called sanctuary as well and that it genrelly housed slightly more dangerous mutants then the mansion did. "I can do this" she whisperd to herself, her temtation to run being held back only by her sheer will and stubbornness.

A cool breeze on a warm summer’s day washed across Sam’s face as he swayed quietly in a hammock he put up a few weeks ago. Sam never had all the time he wanted to enjoy the large hammock seeing as despite so many people working as greeters the paper work had cease to pile up. A small husky puppy curled up by the base of the tree as Sam continued to sway back and forth waiting for the new possible resident to make her appearance.
Sam looked down to his puppy Thor who now had his ears perked up which meant one of two things someone was at the gate or there was a squirrel. A low growl could be heard from his dog as Sam tilted his head to the front gate and spotted someone standing outside it.
“Never a dull day is it Thor?” said Sam as he and his Dog got up from their resting positions and headed to the front gate. Looking up at the sky briefly Sam could decide if it looked like it was going to rain or not. From the looks of it the clouds were only for a time blocking off the sun but in the distance more and more clouds could be seen.
Looking down his eyes spotted the long hair that trailed down to the girl’s ankles as his head tilted slightly as he got closer. Her hair was a light blue from what he could tell and had an assumption that it didn’t have to do with hair dye but then again he could be wrong.
As he was in speaking distance Thor let out a small bark as his tail continued to wag, “Hello,” Sam paused then continued, “can I help you?” Sam asked curiously looking the girl up and down as he opened the gate with a small click of a button. As the gate moved out of the way Thor let out a defensive bark and ran behind Sam as he extended his hand to the new guest. “My name is Sam, you wouldn’t happen to be Shana would you?” Sam asked curiously wondering if the mother of this Shana was expecting a call to let her know that she made it to the mansion safely.

Shana smiled at the puppy who seemed to be quite excited at the prospect of meeting the new person. Shana liked dogs, larger ones for the most part. She had never actually owned a dog however, somthing they had lacked room for in her old house. She watched as the dog barked and then retreated behind his master. Shana had to admit she did find it a bit surprising that they even aloud animals in a place like this. Still it was a welcome surprise, it would make the place much more fun, as animals were less on her nerves.
Her natural nervousness was already as the door opened until he finnaily asked if she was Shana. His name was sam, "Yes i am" She said reaching her hand out to his. The place looked huge , she thought as she looked over what she could see from the driveway. It was still hard to believe she would be living half way across the world, then from whare she had been just a few days ago. Her nervousness getting the best of her several random sticks and rocks began to lift into the air, They quickly dropped back to the ground as Shana suppressed her power, it was embarrassing but also the reason she was here, to prevent accidental power usage. "That seems to happen alot" she said with a bit of a sigh.
Any thought of contacting home had escaped her beyond her first call off the plane. The place was just so big and interesting that she had completely forgotten to do so. Things just slipped her mind around new things. "This city is huge" she commented but the Mansion itself looked large to her.eyes. She shifted her weight a few times nervously. This was it, the entire reason she came to america, to learn control and maybe how to deal with people better, having secluded herself for most of her youth. This was her chance to start over pushing her nervousness down she took a few steps onto the mansion grounds. "What's the dog's name?" she asked curiously taking a few steps so she could see him again as he hid.

As he took her hand Sam noticed a few small sticks and stones floating in the air letting go of Shana’s hand Sam looked around to make sure no bones would be broken. A small shaking could be felt, as his fearsome husky pup Thor was confused beyond belief. As his dog was backing up into his leg Sam looked from a twig to a rock and then smiled, “Telekinesis?” Sam asked curiously as he bent over and reached out for a twig then crouched down and made an attempt to distract Thor from the goings on around him. His eyes shot up to Shana as she expressed the frequency of things floating in the air, “And I am guessing that is why you are here correct?” Sam asked as he turned his attention back to Shana.
Patting Thor on the head Sam smiled to Shana and said, “His name is Thor, and there are a few more dogs around the mansion which I hope is okay with you, pets are welcome here as along as their taken care of and looked after.” He smiled and waved Shana to the mansion, “The city is huge but give it a few weeks and you’ll manage to get use to it.” As they approached the mansions front door Sam clicked his tongue slightly to get Thor’s attention. The dog gave a small whine and ran inside the mansion as Sam opened the door, with a small tail wag and a licking of his chops Sam watched Thor bound off to his office where they were heading to and where a small bowl of food was waiting for him.
As they entered his office Sam motioned for Shana to take a seat as Sam moved to his own chair and sat down. Opening one of his drawers Sam pulled a resident application and set it on the opposite side of his desk with a pen, “Don’t know if you're a fan of paper work but there are something’s that we would like to know about you, mind you not all of them need to be answered but basic questions such as contact information, name, birthday and abilities you know the usual” said Sam causally.

"Exactly, whenever i am surprised or otherwise emotional objects just begin to float or get thrown through the air. I'm afraid i could hurt someone with them" She explained honestly. She had to smile at the dog's nervousness as well as admit the effect the dog was having on her own, some how the puppy's presence helped calm her a bit and she was thankful for that. The new place and city had served to make her very nervous lately and so she had, had more then one accident
"N-no i actually like dog's myself" She said snapping back from her own thoughts. SHe nodded to his comment about getting use to the city and briefly entertained the idea of informing him of her natural talent to get lost. With her Concentration slipping again another rock made, it's way to meet the sky, landing several yards behind her. She followed Sam quietly as they entered the building, the dog seemed use to this and Shana wondered how often Sam did this, as the dog seemed to find it routine. The most relieving part of all was that her disguise seemed to be working as so far no one had mentioned anything on it, but Shana also wondered if people had but had just avoided saying anything for one reason or another, she had been fairly sure people had been stareing on the plane and in the city, but never could catch them doing so. Not for the first time she recalled her councelers advice about her worst enemy being her own nerves.
'paperwork is ok" she said though her voice revealed her lack of being thrilled about it. It would be easy enough to do, she just disliked doing it in general. Shana did the paperwork, moving through it at a decent pace, though her hand writing left much to be desired. She gave only a moments hesitation on a few of the questions but filled out the paperwork with littile trouble before handing it back to him. Rubbing the back of neck a bit her eyes wondered the room taking note of the things that were there. "Makes sense, have to know what people can do in case of accidents" she said more to herself them to sam.

A squeal and a giggle sounded from the school, and then a very young girl, looking no older than 10 years of age was seen shooting out from the walls. The girl hovered towards Cold Steel, and Shana. The girl turned and waved at the school ”Hah!!! Take that Docprof, I escaped you and your ebul IV!!” she would say before turning to CS, and stopping right there, the kid still hovered a few centimeters from the ground, a large grin on the young girl’s lips.
On noticing Shana, she grinned more wider ”hiya! My name is Caelita Weeyico’ she says, landing gently, she grinned a bit at the doggy, and knelt to pet the little cutie. Then looked at the two “The Caelita Weeyico, the last of the Weeyico family’ she says softly. On the Newspaper, it had a front page on the incident, of how, the hugest family in the city died due to a fire, that she was the only one spared. If the two look at the youngster, they would Notice one thing that possibly would cause some concern, Caelita was quite unclothed.
When Caelita finished petting the doggy, she straightened up ”sooo you the Newest person here?’ she asked, then pondered having a bit of fun, so the youngster floated up so that her head was at their level. Before she spoke, her right hand moved to rub gently on her head “there’s things I gotta warn you about..’ she says making her voice quieter,
though it was loud enough so that the both of them could hear “There’s two great evils here..’ she would be saying “one is a machine, one that stands still, sometimes it can get one of its tubes into you, and if that happens, see through liquid goes in” the kid would say, basically describing Ivs. “the other is a Man, he has his evilness hidden from the others, the others don’t realize it yet” The girl smiled, almost insanely, for those that knew the girl, knew that she was just playing, pretending that she was crazy.
[Iron mouth gave me the address to this thread, he also said it was Open and Shane said I can come in, I hope you guys don’t mind me entering, also sorry if I may have taken control or something worse. Also sorry for making her unclothed, but she had no other clothes also, I was in the mood to rp her in that state.]

Taking the filled out papers Sam took one look at it and smiled, “Welcome to the Mansion Shana, if you would like we could arrange training sessions right away!” turning his attention to his desk and pulling out a small map of the mansion Sam pushed it towards Shana along with a key he kept in another drawer, “I’ll be placing you on the adult second floor of the adult section I hope that is okay with you…” Sam trailed off as he spotted someone new in the room and the someone was quite naked.
Looking from Shana to Thor, a blink was all he could do given the slight shock of a nude little girl in his office. Sighing as the girl greeted Thor who was quite scared of a floating girl now petting him Thor shook for a second until she stopped petting him. “Miss Weeyico, would you mind putting this on for me?” Sam asked as he pulled one of his clean spare shirts from his bottom drawer, he smiled and asked nice enough hopefully she would oblige.
As Caelita floated up to Shana’s level Sam slapped his hand to his forehead and sighed, “Your talking about the Doctor here… he is anything but evil, he fixed me up several times and is a nice man.” He looked to Shana with an apologetic look on his face and stood up, “Why don’t we take you back there?” asked Sam as he held out the shirt for the child to put on, “Shana you might as well come with us, everyone should know where DocProf’s place is, he happens to be the healer of the mansion so if you get any injuries at any point of your stay he will fix you right up!”

She nodded thinking about training her powers, it would be nice to have complete conrol of them, she was afraid they could hurt somone some day she knew she could lift about forty pounds with them and that being the case her powers could drop an object on somone they just might not be able to get up from. "That may be best, I do fear hurting somone on acident with them" She admitted aloud her own inner feelings. Then she could get on with her other goals, slipping quitely back into sociaty.. Truthfully she would have taken just about anywhare, she useually kept to herself anyway still she followed his eye, t a very nakd floating child.
The girl then looked right at her and Shana immediately felt uncomfertable with the sitauation, for more reasons then one. ", yes i am new...." she began before the girl decided to warn her about things. Shana kept quite though she was unable to take the girl seriously, looking away from her, a blush filling her cheeks. She was confused to say the least until Sam mentioned she was talking about the Doctor of the place.
Shana was unsure why the idea this place would have medicle staff was odd at her first thought, she was sure many Mutants had more dangerous power then hers and could prolbely hurt many more people as well. The guys name made him sound strange, her first though being that he had to degrees and used theit titels. Keeping this to herself however she nodded to the idea of going with him. "Makes sense to know" she said but in reality, the Doctor here would be the last person she wnated checking on her, as he would realize her worse secret. She silently agreed with the girl's opinion of IV's the things had always made her head feel light. "Healing, sounds like an awsome abillity" she said having once thought about being a Doctr herself, but she did rather poorly around blood.

Caelita looked at the man”he is evil! When I awoke and was crying, he scolded me, as if it was a bad thing” she says, her eyes narrowed at him, “you are in league with him!” the kid says, then sighs, deciding she should perhaps stop her game. The Reason she was acting al weird and crazy was because of the fire, the one that killed her family and best friend...she figured if she played like this it could be easier for her to forget. So far though, they weren’t playing along, which to her was a bad thing.
When the man handed his shirt over, and asked her all nicely to put it on, but when he called her Miss Weeyico, this brought tears to the young girls eyes, “call me Caelita...and don’t call me Miss Weeyico until I am a adult please and thank you, also I am not going to go back there, I was glad when I left..” she says crossing her arms over her bare chest, a big frown was on her lips. The kid turned, her face facing the door way. It looked like the kid was going to leave. She also didn’t notice that she was practically mooning the two adults. “I want to stay naked, it’s more interesting” she says before floating towards the doorway.
When she got to it, she moved her hand onto the Knob, if it was open, and she just would float out of the room. Once this was accomplished, she stayed there, thinking of where to go, also Noticing a poster telling of a Pool party someday soon, here she knew she needed to buy something to wear to it, also to buy other clothes as she didn’t have too much of them.
