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.

“Mirror Mirror at my side, Courtly evasions I shall not abide. Once more I seek answer true: Can’t I just go out with you?”
Gawain blinked. The blinked again. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop right there. Walking in through the bathroom mirror and then going on an impromtu date with cuddling and dancing was one thing - actually 'going out' was another. Sir Knight didn't do real dates. Nooo way. The last girl who'd dragged him home after a date was probably still hunting his *ss for disappearing in the middle of the night. Maya-days were the only safe days in this cruel world.
Besides, something in Maxine's eyes made him feel there was a big neon sign on his forehead that said 'Boy Toy'. It was a very uncomfortable feeling.
With a sigh and a smile that was meant to be much less sincere than it actually was, Gawain shook his head. "I'm sorry, Lady Maxine. I don't date."
Taking his head off her shoulders, he sat back with a wink. "Although once in a while I get really tempted."

>> "I'm sorry, Lady Maxine. I don't date. ...Although once in a while I get really tempted."
Maxine smirked, leaving her head comfortably on his shoulder for just a little longer before straightening back up. "Mmm, well as long as you're tempted. A girl's got to feel a little love."
That was that, then. He wasn't on the market. At the moment. Which, of course, officially resolved her problem: he wasn't dating material. He'd said so himself. For now. Give him a year or two--he looked like he needed more time to grow into those shoulders, anyway. Or a few decent meals. Speaking of which...
Belly poke.
"When was the last time you ate? You look like a string bean. Sir Knight." Dignified title somewhat belated, and somewhat grinning. "Let's get you fed. How spicy did you order yours, anyway?" Maxine leaned forward to hover over her own curry: a prelude to lady-like devouring.
>>"Mmm, well as long as you're tempted. A girl's got to feel a little love."
Gawain let out the breath he'd been holding, Maxine was not upset. Good. That meant she was not that serious about the whole thing, Well. How could she? And heck yes, he was tempted. Most of the time. There is such a thing as 'hormones', even for little freaks like him.
>>"When was the last time you ate? You look like a string bean. Sir Knight. Let's get you fed. How spicy did you order yours, anyway?"
Gawain shrugged, finally lifting his arm off her shoulders. "Would ya believe if I said I eat helluva lot?" he asked. Shifting takes up a lot of energy. Sir Gawain's not gonna grow fat anytime soon. Growing muscles, on the other hand, would be most welcome...
"Oh, it's spicy" he grinned, poking at his food "Very. Wanna try?"
