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.

Eaen smiled as he took the hot chocolate from Talon. "Thanks a lot Darius!" He took a sip and winced, remembering why it was called "hot" chocolate. Placing it down on one of the coasters stacked on the table, he looked around for the blanket he had discared earlier.
"Guys... where's that blanket?" He ended up finding it underneathe Deathstar's butt and he smiled with an eyebrow raised as he looked from Deathstar to Talon next to her. He loosely grabbed hold of the blanket and looked back to Deathstar. "I found it."
Then with an impish look on his face, he tightened his grasp on the blanket and pulled, hopefully unbalancing Deathstar straight into Talon's lap. He snapped his head over to make sure both of the mugs were on the table, and when he saw they were he smiled before the blanket landed on his head. He struggled to pull the blanket off to see if his mischevious act had any satisfying results.
<"Why do you keep harrassing her about this Darius punk?">
'Because he seems like a nice guy. And I think that Darius would be good for her. It would do her some good to have someone she can be affectionate towards.'
<"Whatever. I still think I could take him.">
((ooc: annnd the fictional battle is proving him wrong... haha))
Darius laughed a little at Eaen mucking around with Layla before taking a sip of his own hot chocolate and placing it down on a near by coaster. She looks really good today he thought to himself not daring to ever speak his thoughts and decide he would take his old seat back on the couch between Layla and Eaen. "This couch is way more comfortable" he said trying to justify his move and to hide his want to be closer to someone.
deathstar looks at darius knowing his intenion, she scoots closer to him slowly, hoping he wouldn't see her getting near him, I love this part!!....this is when .....um!!!...I better not spoil it she shouts out, almost spoiling the movie......
she picks up her hot chocolate and takes another sip, and places it back on the table, is it me!!..or is it cold in here??...is the A/C on? once again speaking out loud disturbing the others, she looks for something to keep her warm but stops and looks at darius and Eaen, realizing she made some good friends here at the mansion, her mind ponders and drifts off, thinking maybe if she would have met them earlier would her life be the same......
Darius felt at ease having Deathstar near him and when she commented on it being cold he lifted his right hand which began to glow softly. Darius then place his hand on Deathstars lap palm up. The gently glow was warming and not hard on the eyes ether Darius hoped that it would warm her up at bit. "That any better" he said turning his head to her.
Eaen gave his approval by nodding at Deathstar as Talon used his powers to create some light. He thought the two of them looked cute together, and although his campaign towards hooking them up was not over, he wanted to switch the subject back to something they were discussing earlier.
"So... about tomorrow..." Eaen waited to make sure Deathstar's reaction wasn't anything too dramatic before continuing. "You know I have every intention of going along with you and Raphael right?"
He messed around with the end of his sleeve, looking between the two mutants seated next to him, wondering what their reactions were going to be. He knew he shouldn't have a "the more the merrier" attitude about the whole situation, but he was convinced that Deathstar and Raph could use the extra help. 'What if something goes wrong?'
"Tommorrow? whats happenening tomorrow?" Darius said looking to Deathstar and then back to Eaen. I don't remember Star talking about going anywhere tomorrow I've got to get myself included "Hey you can't just leave me here, theres absolutly nothing going on right now and the mention of something going wrong has got me all interested, hang on wait this Raphael's thing right? You guys gotta clue me in I've been dying to have an excuse to get out for awhile" Darius said getting almost excited with thoughts of the four of them coming together as a team of sorts.

Iara watched the group from the doorway as she played with a bit of her hair. She fought the urge to make herself known. She wanted to see what these people were like, get a feel for them. She hated being new.

Tricity was walking through the hallways and came by the living room. Just as she was about to pass it, she back tracked and waved to everyone in there. It seemed they were all hanging out and watching television. The real reason she stopped was the unfamiliar face that was with them all.
She turned on her heel and went inside, straight to the new person. "Hello, I'm Tricity. Are you a new resident here at the mansion?"

Iara looked up at the woman with a sweet smile and rose from her seat. She extended a hand. "I am Iara Silva, the new student from Miami. My bike should have arrived here two days ago. You must be Ms. Tricity. It is a pleasure and an honor."
"It's nice to meet you Iara. I have to talk to you privately for minute if you don't mind, please." Tricity stepped over to the hallway and ushered her to come over. "I just need to know about your mutation. Everything you know about it, including if it's dangerous to you or anyone else."

Iara sighed and rubbed her arm, the detailed henna her sister had done was still there. " I make venom in my mouth. I'm not exactly sure how. I can turn it off and its non-toxic to me but if I spit it into anyone's eyes it'll blind them. I can kill a horse last time I check. It was a prank on a country club. Um..... I run out of it if I use too much and it won't come back for about a day or so. One friend told me it stings when she got some on her hands."
Tricity was somewhat disturbed when she heard the killing of a horse part, but nodded in understanding. "Ok, well...that's a mutation you definitely have control over, thankfully. It was nice to meet you. I'll let you get back to the others then."

"Wait, one last thing? Where are you guys holding Srta Verde?" She smiled. She loved her bike to death and had the name painted in graphics on the side. It was her little green wonder.
