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.

*tricity walked into her room and noticed orion tried to set it up in the same fashion it used to be. none of her belongings were saved from the explosion of the first mansion, but mostly everything could be replaced. she noticed a new, black desk where the old one was once with a new computer on it. tricity walked over to her bed and saw some new blue and black sheets for her to put on it. she had gone shopping for new curtains, sheets, and other small furniture a few days ago and was glad she would be able to finally feel comfortable in a room again. after making her bed, she went into the new adjacent bathroom which was based around different blues and golds. she thought it was actually better than her first bathroom. she walked back out of the bathroom and into her room.* well...it's not exactly the same *she continued arranging her room.*
[glow=blue,2,300]Orion knocked on her door and she called out to enter. He pushed the door open but stayed leaning against the doorjam. He had cleaned up and shaved and whatnot but Tric could still see he was exhausted. Orion and BikerDemon had been the only two who had not stopped construction even throughout the nights. It took the team and the two mutants two and a half weeks to complete the mansion. About halfway through Both Orion and BikerDemon had passed out on the half completed roof. The Doc Prof had been able to prescribe the two mutants a stimulant of extremly powerful nature. This enabled the two to finish the mansion, but the Doc warned them that it could have some unexpected side effects. Orion wasnt woriied about them though. He hadnt found anything he couldnt beat. Besides he did just get a four hour nap. [/glow]
*tricity looked over her shoulder and saw orion standing there. she dropped her suitcase of clothing on the bed and walked up to him.* hey... *she gave him a hug.* you okay? you dont look so good? is it still from the construction??
[glow=blue,2,300]Orion smiled and nodded but he was happy because he had made her happy. "Demon is spending the night at the Cave." he told her. "Hes just passed out cold. But me, I wanted to come and see you settled in." Her arm around him and his around her they walked into the room and shut the door.[/glow]
*she sat on the bed and reached for a bottle of water. after taking a sip, tricity continued unpacking.* maybe you should just live in the mansion.... *tricity said with a slight attitude because it bothered her he wouldnt stay at the school when he lived so close on the grounds anyway. this topic was always a cause for argument, but she didnt care...*
[glow=blue,2,300]"Babe, you know im a loner most of the time. You're the only one hwo I can stand twenty four, seven. Besides you know you love the secluded serenity of the Cave anyway. Archon would go nuts with all the kids and you know my wheels are too much for all the kids, so I cant store them in the garage......Hun, whats the matter? Why are you upset at me?"[/glow]
yes, the seclusion of the cave is fine...but that doesnt mean you can go visit it or something. like a getaway kind of private, secret place. AND archon lives the kids! you wouldnt know that since he was with me the entire time you were gone! *tricity said getting frustrated. they ALWAYS fought about him leaving for long periods of time, which has broken them up a few times.* OH and about the bikes...they would be totally off limits to the kids of course
[glow=blue,2,300]"So what you want to change me to something you like better. Or think would be better? Whats going on do you have another headache or something. Cause you hitting me with this now after all the work i put in to rebuild this freakin place is not what i had in mind." Orion temper was rising due to his exhaustion but even more so because he had just wanted to see her smile and see her eyes when she got to walk through the mansion again almost the exact way it was before. Of course a few things had been changed. Tightened security and extra hidden exits from the mansion itself, but Orion disd think that they all did a damn good job.[/glow]
IT'S NOT THAT I WANT TO CHANGE YOU, RI! and dont blame this on a headache...but i do feel like i'm getting one! *she walked over to the huge windows that lined her entire wall and stared out of them, not really looking at anything.* look, i guess...i just dont want anything to happen here again. and i feel a lot safer when you are HERE and not at the cave. it's so damn far... i dont think i can go through another attack like that. and the kids that were kil... *she choked on the word.* guess im just scared. BUT.... *she said turning around to face him as he sat on the bed.* I WOULD prefer if you moved in the house.
[glow=blue,2,300]"Ok now I get it. Now that youve explained it like that, and now that I know you want me to be here so everyone can feel safer, ok not a problem, but hun Im only one guy. How is everyone gonna feel safer just because one guy is now living in here?" His face showed understanding, but also confusion. He stood up rather slowly and moved over to her while she was watching nothing and put his arms around her and put his chin on her shoulder like he so often did when he was content.[/glow]
well not JUST you...but another person to help out. your mutation is insane, ri. youre an asset to this place and you know it. i just wish you would put up a bed here and keep the cave as recreational or something...
[glow=blue,2,300]A smile swept across his face as he spoke.
"That you and me share the same room. The professor asked me to biuld several large suites. Im sure the Professor wouldnt mind us taking one seeing as all the work we did and will do for the place. So, what do you say?"[/glow]
*tricity pondered it for a moment, but was sad with her decision.* well....i use my room as an office too, people always coming in and out. i dont think it would be the best idea. BUT, if you get another room, i'll be sure to spend many nights there! *she smiled, happy that he would stay in the mansion.*
