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.

"Fly?"
That triggered an envious smile from the Passeant girl. "Wow... I've always wanted to feel what it's like being able to soar through the air." She studied him with a smile.
"oh yeah?" Kaos asked with a rather menacing smile as he saw a potential opening of interest to work on.
"well yeah, I can fly quite fast and it is quite a rush each time a break sound barrier" kaos thought he'd just bring that little fact up as it usualy tweeks the interest of most people.

"Sounds barrier... That's quite some thing." Her head went into rhythmic nods. "Then again... That's why we're gifted." A smile formed for a few moments, then turned into a frown unintentionally.
Beads of memories were streaming back into her head... painful ones. She ran a hand over her slender neck with a deep scar to it and bit her lower lip.

Matt's voice snapped her out of the flashback incident. "Urm... Oui. I can enter dreams or induce dreams and make it turn out real." She smiled weakly. "I do power mimicry as well."
"mimicry? as in you could copy my powers?" Kaos asked while trying not to stare at the scar he just noticed
"heh, maybe we could go flying together somtime, I think that would be a pretty good way to show you around the city" A smile swept across kaos' face as he asked.
"heh, well I can take a bit of a hit and even so.." Kaos said he took a step closer slowly "you could hold onto me and i'll do all the flying" He said in a playfull but flirtacious manner with a smile on his face.

Valentine returned his smile and shook her head lightly, "I wouldn't risk falling." She laughed. Josiah shifted in her arms and she put him down on the ground.
"What's wrong dear?" She questioned him while brushing his face. "I'm sleepy, Valentine. Can we go back to your room? I like it there. I feel safe." Valentine smiled sweetly and touched the boy on his head. "Okay."
Josiah turned and looked at the man with blue hair and equally blue eyes that gave a crystal glow. "You want to see the room?" Valentine looked at the boy then to Matt as her eyes went wide and she laughed. "I think Matt might be too busy, dear."
Kaos' eyebrows raised and he smiled "hah hah, nah i'm not busy, I dont have to be back at work for a few hours" His eyes met with hers "i can understand if your too busy though" Kaos said in a rather flirtatious way.

Flirting? Don't tell me he's one of those guys... Valentine broke eye contact with him within an instance. She wasn't too keen in giving the wrong impression. "You can follow us if you like." She nodded politely as she took Josiah by his hand and strode towards the staircase and up.
Kaos looked at his watch then back at them "hhmm, well i guess if i might be comming here more often soon then it couldnt hurt to take a look around, kaos followed
