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.

"I tell you what," Meld promised because she really was starting to like Megan, "when we have the time to ensure a lack of alarm and a lack of cops having ulterior motives for tracking us down, I promise you a ride in a shiny new sports car." She didn't have much experience with car theft, admittedly, but her electric hand made it ridiculously easy and she had to admit a joy ride in a convertible sounded like fun.
"I'll remind you before we leave," Meld assured Megan. She began driving in the direction of the warehouse she and Aura had used as a safe house numerous times prior, making sure not to take a direct route. She never had gotten her official license but given her current record with the police, there didn't seem to be much point now. The trick was going at the steady speed of traffic so as to not attract attention. After twenty minutes of driving they arrived, parking the vehicle about two blocks from the werehouse itself. It was always a good idea to be safe and thus, even if the car was reported stolen and somehow found, parking a distance away from their destination would make it much more difficult for the cops to track them down.
Meld waited for Megan to exit the vehicle before starting to walk in the direction of their destination. "I've only had to use it a few times but its always good to have around, just in case." Aura, on the other hand, used it quite often. She wasn't certain just how often, but she knew her friend got in a lot more potential trouble than she did and that was saying something, considering her own activities.
"when we have the time to ensure a lack of alarm and a lack of cops having ulterior motives for tracking us down, I promise you a ride in a shiny new sports car."
"WooHoo!" Her arms flew into the air, and she arched her back and wiggled in the seat a little, which made a crackling sound. Her lip curled and she ceased her excitement. "Aww... I think a wrapper is stuck to my butt..." Upon further inspection, she discovered that there was a candy wrapper attached to her. "Gross..."
"I've only had to use it a few times but its always good to have around, just in case."
An eyebrow raised, and she cocked her head at Meld as she exited the car, and kicked the door shut. "Oh? I'll bet there are some pretty exciting stories attached to this place then..." She let the end trail off, an open invitation to story time, as well as a little bit of a nudge. Surely, with such a... modified body, one would have quite a few tales of which how it came to be. As well as a few tales of how exactly she fell into the shadows of New York crime.
While waiting, she took a few moments to take in her surroundings a little more, as she tagged along behind the metallic woman. It was always good to have a few good escape routes on hand... even if you didn't think you'd necessarily need them.
