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.

"Actually, now you mention it.." Toxis looks at her a moment. "I do remember you...you were...at the lab I went to. The SHIELD place, am I right?" She coughs pretty hard and then looks back at Delphi.
Yes I am, and I've called someone else up from the S.H.I.E.L.D. Labs. I hope he can help you, I actually staking a lot on it. *Del informs Toxis. She spends the next half hour trying to keep Toxis as comfortable as possible.*
*Finally enough time passes and Del anticipates Dr. VanDeKamp's imminent arrival. Del heads out and finds Dr. VanDeKamp, who was trying to find the infirmary.* Hey, Dr. VanDeKamp, over here.[/i]*
"Hello, Delphi so where is she?" Dr. VanDeKamp asks as he glances about the institutes ER. "Nice place, fairly well equipt for a school's ER."
Yes, well Doc Prof, is an actual doctor and he runs this place very well. *Del informs him and then shows him to Toxis's room.* She is in there, good luck. *[]i]Del says smiling and pushing him in.[/i]* Oh her mutation is she secretes acid from her skin.[/color]
Some local do-gooder/masked man dumped her on the Professor here. *Del explains, looking over at the now unconcious Toxis.* She was at the S.H.E.I.L.D. Labs, she delievered a message to us.
"I remember..." Dr. Van De Kamp says frowning. "Are you so sure it was a 'Do Gooder'? That person just exposed an entire school of mutants to a virus that targets mutants."
I didn't say he was an intelligent do-gooder, and thanks to the secrecy clause it isn't like anybody in the entire world is even aware of the dangers of sick mutants.*Del points out, it is obvious at this juncture she thinks sheild needs to make a broad announcement concerning the virus.*
"My healing powers tend to work from the inside out- focusing on things like virus and forign agents. An acid burn is- well a bit outside what I can do."
Actually, the acid isn't burning her, at all. It burns everyone who touches her. The two other healers had to see other healers to fix their hands. *Del explains. Toxis seems completely immune to her own acids.*
He sighs. "It is going to be a long day of healing." He's not looking forward to it, simply because it means that many more people will know he's a mutant.
"I can't say as I really care weather she has any internal pins that I should worry about, as an epidemic has wider consequences..." He says, taking off a glove and laying fingers upon.
I'll get you a healer quick. *Del says as she rushes off and soon returns with Evan Schmitt, a fairly capable healer in his own right.* This is Healer Schmitt, and this is Dr. VanDeKamp. *She intruduces them.*[/blue]
"Nice to meet one of my own kind." He says with a tired smile- he's been under plenty of stress laitly, and today's not looking any better. "Any internal pins or medications I should know about before we lay hands upon eachother?"
