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.

"Ah, pleasure to meet you." Siren offers a cross-body handshake. "Thankyou for the ride. And thankyou for letting Del apprentice or whatever it is. Means the world to her." Siren says, giving the Doctor the once over.
"Del short for Delphi, nickname for Cassandra." he waves a hand airily. "It's a... nick name of sorts. Their's a story behind it, but it's a long one, I'm sure you don't want to hear it. " Siren doesn't know weather Delphi played her 'mutant' card or not. "It's not too bad. Although it does take a bit to get used to driving on the wrong side of the road, doesn't it.?"
"It has been long enough since I came here that I don't even notice anymore. Delphi you say, Greek temple of profficey? Fitting." Dr. VanDeKamp mutters to himself, "How about you originally from the states?"
"Fitting? Why do you say that?" Siren says, giving him a sidelong glance. "Move into the far lane and take the right after next. I'm originally from Japan."
He follow's Siren's directions and gets into the proper lanes. "Fitting because of her abilities. Japan you say? Cassandra mentioned that she had beed there a couple months back." Dr. VanDeKamp says ambigiously.
"Oh good." Siren nods. "You have to understand my position, Dr. VanDeKamp- If Delphi hadn't said anything to you, it's not my place to talk about her mutant abilities. Especially when it could get her ... removed from certain activities." He nods. "Next exit. Yeah. We went to Japan, what... seven months ago? Sounds about right. I'm afraid the trip was not for as much pleasure as, ah, business, but I did manage to show her a relatively good time."
"I would never mention her abilites to others at the school." He says a little offended but then they have never met before. "Business in Japan, what made you move here then?" He asks wondering if that might be where Cassie and him met.
"Oh, nothing much. I'd lived in the States for, what-- seven years or so now, I guess. It was more a nostalgia trip back than anything." He mused. "And you? How long have you been living State-side?"
"Since I was accepted at NYU, I graduated and took a position here, haven't been home since. In 2001 I made head of surgery." He says not quite going into exact years.
