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.

[glow=blue,2,300]Orion meandered into the big kitchen and set about making himself some breakfast. Soon kids began to come in and make their own breakfast, and talk and laugh and generally make commotion. This was beginning to annoy Orion so he picked up his food and headed out toward the garage, figuring this would be a peaceful place this early in the morning.[/glow]
*staggering into the kitchen, he looked around...didnt see anyone, he coul hear children running around laughing and playing, they must have been all outside...he looked around the cabinets and the fridge for some food....he was unsure as to what he should eating seeing how he was unsure of what it was that he liked...after debating for several minutes he just grabbed a box from out of the cabinet.....he sat at th table and looked at the box, puzzled by its strange mysteries.....he open it up....and took a sniff..... *hmm smells good, lets hope it tastes good too*....reaching into the box he pulled out a handful of ....squares.....the were coated in brown sugar and cinnamon....he took one and threw it in his mouth......it was a strange taste but it was good.*hmmm a little dry... but i can deal* downing the handful, he figured this must be some kind of treat....seeing as how he was sure no one could get full off of those things he placed the top down and but the box on the shelf...*
*opening the fridge chaos reached in and grabbed some bread, and some cheese....looking inside a bit he found some pinkish meat......looking at the label he said* hmmmm "ham huh..." hmmm well worth a shot..* throwing a coupe slices of ham and cheese togathe he placed the remaining slices of bread back into the fridge with the ham and cheese, and he grabbed a soda from the inside shelve....he stood around in the kitchen and started to eat the sandwhich*
[glow=blue,2,300]"Well at least youve remembered enough to eat some protein before she has you kicked out." Orion muttered as he too entered the Kitchen. Although he didnt go to the fridge for a soda, he opened the alcohol cabinet with the key and extracted two beers and handed one to Chaos. "Theyre not quite cold but theylle definatly put the color back in yer face." he said and Archon woofed at him in agreeance.[/glow]
[glow=blue,2,300]Orion smirked and took another pull from his. Putting it down he shrugged his shoulders and pointed out. "Hey, its a school, I cant really make you a Devils Birthday here if you know what I mean." he pointed toward the cabinet. "Limited selection, ya see." he mumbled taking another pull form his bottle.[/glow]
*chaos nodded in agreeance, as he took another swig.....* so you guys got into it pretty bad last night.....seems like things are going down since i came back
"no i think its me, my prescence here has done nothing but build her hatred for me.....especially now that im here, she has to deal with all that i have done......stuff to evil to believe, and i cant even remember it.....to her she probably doesnt find it fair that i was granted the blessing to have my memory wiped, and her friends died because of who i was.....to her ill never pay off my debt, not till i die.......but thats just what i think" * he takes another hit*
[glow=blue,2,300]"Well Ill tell you if you stick around and show her that youve changed or whatever she would be more inclined to be a little nicer. Besides your ribs are broke and your having a hard time standing upright on your ownnever mind fight to survive out there with who knows how many sentinels." Orion pointed out.
"The key is to stay out of her way until she needs you and then she will be a little more apt to do more than tolerate you."[/glow]
*he thought to himself for a moment..*i guess your right, i felt completly useless yesterday..... i have these visions that i was some kind of good fighter, that i never really got hurt and now i stand here, half dead.....we've fought before, what was i like?
[glow=blue,2,300]"Orion sighed and began to fill in Chaos of how he was when Orion had fought him in the park. After about ten to fifteen minutes Orion concluded the story with
"So if I hadnt hadnt have used Chaos to blast the other abilities out of you I think you were gonna go and start somrthing in a more populated area, where more people could get hurt." By now they were both sitting at the kitchen table and each were munching on a ham and cheese sandwhich.[/glow]
*the images chaos had seen before matched what orion had said almost to the dot, he wasnt the type of person to exagerat, he told it straight and how it is...* the only thing i dont get is....if i had access to all these powers and such, how come i was like helpless against those drones?
[glow=blue,2,300]"Like Tricity explained to you before you can only use them for a short period of time and then they fade away. This is why you have no powers now. See what I mean" Orion explained[/glow]
