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.

"Well, I guess there is something to be said about being safe and planned," Juka admitted, with just a little reluctance. He knew there were plenty of people that just couldn't deal with the kind of random and chaotic life that he lived, he just didn't understand them too well. Not that every aspect of his life was so random as all that, his band for one thing he took very seriously and practiced with almost every day, at least for a couple hours. But beyond that it just seemed so, well, boring to live a life like that. Juka needed excitement and spontaneity.
"Maybe there's a middle ground," Juka suggested, helpfully. "You don't have to be like me to be like yourself. Its all a matter of being comfortable. I'm a rainbow princess, I admit it. Doesn't mean that you have to be." In fact, he really couldn't imagine Alex as anything rainbow, let alone a princess but it was never a matter of being as out there and flamboyant as possible, it was a matter of being and individual and everyone's individual was different. Juka's just happened to include lots of colour, noise and excitement. "And thank you, my darling, for the offer."
Juka couldn't help but giggle when Alex asked if he was a transvestite. It was, of course, not an uncommon question, if anything he was surprised that he had managed to wait that long before asking. "No, I assure you I am not a transvestite. I just like to wear pretty clothes and what's prettier than dresses and skirts?" And ribbons, bows, frills and lace too, of course. "Why should I let conventional dress hamper me?" He never had thought much about convention anyway, much to the dismay of his very conservative and proper parents.
Everything was clear about Juka, his lifestyle supported his beliefs. living in the moment, carpe diem and all that stuff. Planning and organizing had been great when it came to school business. Study schedules etc. If there was anything he could appreciate it was routines and order. Being perhaps even a little obsessive. "Well Juka, there is always something to be said, but I color coordinate my closet, and if something doesn't go as planned, I might even end up crying." Alexander had no idea on why he just said that last part, but it was best to act quickly and just try to make it appear less serious. "So, in short, I'm your everyday psycho." He smiled, comforting himself with the fact that Juka probably couldn't care what went on in someone else's life. "I don't think my life is anything like myself, instead of molding my own way, I get too influenced by people around me." He paused, being actually a bit puzzled of his own surprising thoughts on personalities and lifestyles. "I like to stay clean, that way people won't think I'm a dirty hobo, I don't even like eating out in public because I'm afraid people will think I'm a pig." Now Juka would probably think he was more of a nutcase than before, but whatever, if Juka even cared about that stuff he was less free spirited than he had imagined, after all he thought of himself as a rainbow princess. "I think the only way I truly express myself is by fashion, even then I'm more influenced by what I see, but it does showcase a different side, even though I can't exactly afford expensive brand clothing, other than that and the fact that I'm not all that afraid to say what's on my mind, I'm pretty boring."
The way Juka reacted when asked about his well cross dressing tendencies, indicated that he was not at all uncomfortable. Flashes of an overly large pink and red wedding dress, draped, with ribbons all over the bottom part, a huge bow in the chest, will lace almost overtaking the whole thing came over Alexander as Juka spoke. The whole monstrosity made him a tad bit nervous, if Vera Wang every designed something similar, it would mean the end of her career. "Well then, non transvestite it is then, good to know for future references, maybe you could start a career as a drag artist, I'm sure you would look uhm great with ten pounds of make up." He began. This whole ordeal, verbally, had been quite strange. Therefore it was best to just stick with it. Juka was a man of special well idea, thoughts, among other things. Either he grew up one, or became a rebel later, unlike himself, trying to be please everyone. Though he could be wrong and Juka's parents was some free spirited hippies or something that didn't mind their son wearing dresses. "Well if you like wearing dresses I won't stop you, I don't judge by looks, just by personality, or, well if you suddenly get the urge to wear toe rings and ankle bracelets of any sorts, it will give you minus points in my book." He said, seriously enough to make Juka understand that he was really not kidding about the toe rings.
