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.

Sample RP: Standing outside of the store Willow fumbled with the pockets of her utility belt. Its large pockets looked like a strange fashion statement. She took a deep breath in, held it, then released. It didn’t stop her nerves. She could feel the adrenalin rushing through her veins, her heart beat thrashing out of control; she loved the rush. Finally she walked into the store. A bell above the door rang, announcing her entrance. The store clerk didn’t even look up from his magazine. Casually Willow walked through the aisle, pretending to browse the foods but she was really inspecting the crowd. She also took note of the security cameras; one at the door and cash register, and one in the back of the store watching over the whole store. Willow grabbed a bag of chips and brought them to the cashier. She stared at him intensely and read his name tag. It wasn’t who she was looking for. She paid for her chips and left the store, the bell rang once again as she exited. She made her way out of the store and traced along the outer wall to the back of the building. A man in uniform leaned against the wall smoking a cigarette. Walking quickly, Willow opened a pocket on her belt. She reached her hand in and wrapped her fingers around the grip of a knife. The man slowly looked up as Willow approached. She took the knife and slid it across her palm; red blood leaked out. She looked up and made eye contact with the man. She walked over to him and placed the bloody hand on his face. He screamed in pain as his skin burned with acid. Willow had the mutant ability to digest substances, which her bodily fluids would then take the quality of. The acid she digested an hour before was now leaking out of her hand. She kept it there until he stopped screaming. She let his limped body fall. And thus ends another pay day.
