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.

"You're strong for me whenever I need it... how can I do anything but return the favor?" Mike answered with a smile, brushing her cheek with his thumb. "You compliment me, I compliment you... Fate never looked like such a realisic possibility," he added, slightly teasing.
Mike laughed and picked up a new egg roll. One of the younger boys went running down the hall past the dining room, only to skid to a stop when he smelled the food, almost falling in the process.
Mike laughed. "Should I assume that you're hungry, Jimmy?" The boy nodded, eyeing the Chinese food with saucer-wide eyes.
"Hyperactive squirrels. On caffeine," Mike answered with a grin.
"What's hyperactive?" the boy asked Mike. He couldn't have been older than five, MAYBE six.
"You after two bowls of ice cream," Mike teased, ruffling the boy's hair as he sat down at another seat at the table. He kept stealing shy glances at Daria, then looking quickly back at his plate.

Daria saw but just smiled. She had no time to do anything else because students began to pile in. None were over the age of 13 and very few asked for food.
"Told you." Daria said.
"Hi Mike." two girls around Sarah's age waved and giggled at him.

Daria laughed.
"What's wrong with your hands Daria?" a kid asked her. She'd met him before when that psychotic killer kid had a breakdown. He was tall for his age, skinny and very goofy.
"I burned them by accident." she replied simply.
the kid clicked his teeth. "You should be more carful. My aunt's cat used to sleep on radiators too. We buried him last week." He joked.
"Dude that is so not funny." Daria said pushing him away with her tail.
"Very not funny," Mike added, giving the boy a stern look. He walked away with a rather scared look, and had he had a tail, it would have been between his legs.
Mike just shook his head and turned back to his food.

Daria continued eating. Sarah soon entered the room and hopped onto her lap after giving Mike a quick kiss on the cheek. She helped herself to the food on both their plates.

Sarah shrugged. "You could have just taken it to your room." she said then a sly grin spread on her face. "Although you probably wouldn't get much eating done."
Daria blushed which Sarah immediately saw and grinned.
"You're such an evil little child" Daria shook her head playfully slapping Sarah on the arm with her tail.
"Remember, Sarah, your brother is not a role model to follow. VERY much not a role model to follow," Mike said, fixing Sarah with a look. God... she'll be thirteen soon... I'm going to have to start fending boys off soon.
