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.

WOUND UP!? *she exclaimed.* babe, i've been worried! i got up in the middle of the night, feeling like something horrible was happening or about to happen...and you left a note...and then i couldnt find you ANYWHERE! those strange mystical feelings and visions and such were shooting through my head and i prefer to stay in this day and age........ *she took a breath.* WHERE ARE YOU??
"Im at the westerly depositories having a little, errr chat with Ire." he said as he motioned to Ire that he wouldnt be much longer on the phone. Wether Ire understood him or not had yet to be sen and Orion saw Archon had stopped staring intently at Ire and was now coming about for a sniff. "Im sorry i worried you hun but I knew something was going to happen tonight and I couldnt figure out what it was and you know how a drive always clears my head." Iwht the mention of drive Ire looked around for horses or a carriage of sorts. Seeing none he seemed even more puzzled.
"Well he was the feeling I had so its entirly possible. Were just setting some things straight here hun its no big deal. Once this is all over with Ill have you meet him hes really quite a gentlemen." At this point Archon was sniffing his way closer and closer to Ire who had noticed the Wolf but also noticed just his sniffer was going not his teeth so didnt pay much mind. He was noticing there seemed to be someone inside that little black box Orion was carrying. Thinking it was magic Ire wondered if orion knew more about magic than he let on.
if it's not a big deal..why is the moon red and why did i wake up with a start? where do you know him from?? *she asked, going on the computer to look up this 'ire' person.*
"Oh, many many years ago. You wont find him on any computer, babe hes not from this time period. Hes back from medevil times mostly. He was an assassin, you might say. We were friends and fought side by side. He saved myneck a couple of time and I save his. Kind of a mutual partner ship. We covered each others backside." by now Ire was searchig for something in his cloak. Archon was done sniffing at Ire and seeing him as no more a threat sat down next to orion and just starred at him as if to ask when hed be off the phone.
"Well thats where the problem comes in. Unlike me he does age. So he wouldnt have lasted through the centuries. Anyway during a battle he was locked into with a dark wizard i bounded in and helped him thinking i was helping. Apparently from what hes telling me i hindered it more than helped. So hes kinda mad at me for that. Do you mind if we finish this convo later hun hes looking at me as if Im nuts right about now."
well you sound nuts too! if he's mad that means he probably wants to fight right?? *there was a silence.* SEE! ORION, i dont want you fighting any psycho coming out of time portals from the medieval days.......
"Hun, if i dont show him what going on he might kill someone and it would seem perfectly logical to him but not to the rest of the world. Babe where he came from we had a different set of rules. Very diferent. Anyway its not for keeps he said its just a litle workout.
a workout!? *she heard orion sigh with frustration.* FINE FINE!! i'll shut up now.....just call be back after youre...done... *as tricity said that it made no sense to her, but she would try and trust him.*
"You still wish to fight me with no weapon? This is not the Ire I knew from the days of old. The Ire I knew would have at least engaged in battle with a comporably armed opponent." Orion said indicating th epipe he had in his hand.
