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.

" Hello Kitra, I'm doing good, better now." He looked at her punctuating his meaning." oh, this old shack its just my summer home." he smirked, "You know I hadn't thought to ask stupidly, but if you need a place to stay there is always room here at the school. Did you get dropped off? You made some fast time for walking and you don't look to sweaty to have walked all the way. either way I'm glad you are here. Let me show you the pond, there are some great views from there." He grabbed he hand and proceed toward a giant weeping willow.
"Kitra giggled as Zelek grabbed her hand and tugged her in the direction of what she would think would be the pond. "Yea, I did get dropped off and I do have a place but this would be cool for a getaway from everything. And the pond sounds nice. What do you like about being here?"
"Acceptence and Knowledge? Sounds awesome. Training with someone else would be nice. Hmm.... Not to be rude or prying but what is your abilities? And yea I did get home alright thanks. Never found the art store though....got lost."
Kitra had gone bright red at the last few sentences.
"Well first off let me assure you I haven't used the second power I have on you, I promise, you would have known because I would have turned redder than you just did." They came upon a picnic table and Zelek propelled them to the bench in front of it. " first off I can make things out of nothing and make and nothing out of something. For instance what all were you shopping for at the art store?" He raised his eyebrows. " I will explain the other power after I show off a bit." and then you will have to show me what you can do."
Kitra raised her eyebrows as she was propelled to a bench and turned a shade more red then she was.
"Really? I'm not sure I want to know what your second mutation is." Kitra laughed, "Well, I was just looking for normal supplies. Such as shading pencils, colored pencils, erasers..." Kitra trailed off. "I could go on and on actually. I always get a lot of art supplies and go through them pretty fast..." She trailed off again, sure she was boring him.
Art supplies literaly appeared on the table before her. Kitra was stunned.
"Its all yours."
"Mine, really? I ..uh...I thanks..." She trailed off completly.
<He can do this with no reprecussions? Nothing whatsoever....Can I be trained to do that and how...>
Kitra blinked and looked back at Zelek, "X-ray vision? That sounds pretty cool. Of course not being able to control it must have been....interesting. Um, how can you do all of this..." motions to all the art supplies on table, "...with no reprecussions?"
Kitra then grabbed her bag and pulled out a few of her sketchpads and the portrait of Zelek, but turned that over so he couldn't see it quite yet.
Kitra listened to Zelek explain his past. She was slightly horrified and sadness come over her as well. She realized it must have showed when Zelek said it was okay.
Kitra grinned wrily," I do understand bad parenting though." She winked, "You seem to have turned out alright....I think."
She flashed him a wicked grin, "You want the Fuzz ball? Geez, I haven't seen this one on awhile."
Kirtra frowned slightly, concentrating on the sketch, then looked up with a smile.
Stting on the table was a fuzzy, orangish, devil-like creature. It had tiny arms, legs, horns, and wings.
Kitra grinned, "No, it's not alive. I brought it into being. There is a difference. I control it..." She then had the little fuzz ball get up and walk over to Zelek. "It can't do anything on its own really. I'd like for that to be different but I'm not sure that practice would do anything for that."
She frowned again, "And as of yet, I cannot keep my creations in being for more then ten minutes and that is only for the simple ones. The more complicated, the faster I lose it...."
"As for me working hard on my sketchs and the like...I believe its partly my mutation and there is the fact that I've been drawing since I could hold a pencil. So it isn't really working hard, just normal for me."
<I wonder if I said too much about myself. Well, I didn't tell him about me getting weak and stuff so, I should be fine.>
Kitra looked at Zelek, "You seem to be surprised. I didn't think I could surprise someone." She laughed then winked, "Well, I hope that I'm not too surprising."
Kitra was a tad bit shocked and was sure that it showed.
"You like to move fast don't you? I mean we just met yesterday..."
Kitra had trailed off into her thoughts.
<I really don't know what I'm doing. I can't flirt very well and is he actually going in the direction I think he is? I'm so confused, no clue what to think or to say....>
Kitra needed to fiddle with something and had picked up Zelek's portrait unknowlingly. She frowned realizing what she was holding then handed it to Zelek with a small smile.
"Um, I hope you like it." She looked down fiddling with a pecil now, wondering upon his thoughts of it...
Kitra smiled, "My apologies Zelek. I'm not used to flirting and all that stuff that goes along with it." A blush had completly taken over her face as Zelek's next words sunk in.
"It is amazing, now I only need one of you to go along with it"
<Well, why not? I think I'll have some fun as well.>
Well, If thats what you really think, then why not? I'll be happy to make a portrait of myself for you." She grinned, "Perhaps it will, ah, make yours look so much nicer." Kitra giggled, She just couldn't help herself. "Was there anything else you might like? Just curiuos."
Kitra had stood and stretched, surveying the mansion grounds. "Wow, there are so many here. I never thought that there was a place where people like us could be safe."
<I should ask Hunter what other places there are like this. He would definetly know.>
How did you find this place anyway Zelek? I mean places like this aren't advertised....Or are they?"
She turned to Zelek, "I'm full of questions, sorry if they are bothering you."
Kitra shrugged slightly, "My story? It's...well.." She sighed. "I was born into a rich family but my parents cared more for wealth then their only child. I was taken care of by servants and tried my best at as much as I could in hope of praise.... That never worked. I have been scorned all my life at school as well....Thats it in a nutshell. Perhaps I'll say more later on but, not now."
She tilted her head as she looked at Zelek, "I was teasing by the way. Any really cool people here besides yourself?"
"Actually, a tour sounds great. By the way, the little fuzz ball says bye bye for now." The fuzz ball creature disappeared. "Sorry Zelek, I can't keep my sketchs into being for very long."
Kitra turned around and grinned at Zelek. "So, where to first?"
She smiled for Zelek had made a stuffed version and velcroed it to his shoulder. "Hmm, what do you like doing? Or we could wander, that's always interesting."
Kitra followed Zelek. She frowned, "What happened over there?" She had pointed to the gauged out looking and seriously damaged wing of the mansion. "That looks pretty serious. And perhaps we could stop at a kitchen or something? I am kinda hungry."
