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.

Delphi makes it to school and has adequatly supressed her emotions so that she looks as normal as she gets. She heads onto the busy campus prepared for the morning's four hour cadaver lab.
"Hey! Cass! Cassandra!" One of Delphi's lab partners, a boy named Trevor waves her over. Their cadaver's an elder lady- about as old as Delphi's mother. He smiles. "We're looking at the digestive system today!" He says brightly.
He has the lab printed out and clipped up. "Oh? Everything ok? No one dead, right?" Trevor doesn't actually know about Delphi's life situation- or that she's a mutant for that matter.
"Nobody is dead, it is just one of those days where you just woke up on the wrong side of the bed." Delphi says, making a better effort as coming off as being fine.
"If you say so." He says. "If you need.... I dunno. Someone to talk to." He laughs at his own lame attempt at comforting.... or possibly flirting. "Sooo... what, we're starting the insision.... at the breast bone? Is that right? That can't be right..."
"Traditional Y-incision then crack the breast bone and follow up by looking through the esophagous." Delphi says sounding a bit like a walking text book.
"Sure call the easy part." Delphi says rolling back the tissue and pinning it down. She then lifts up and starts the saw and carefully begings to make her way through the breast bone.
"Yes but if you take a look that isn't how we are supposed to do it because it says here in the packett not to follow the directions in our text book because she wants to do something with the ribs later and we can't if we use the primary disection method." Delphi points out, lucky she made it through most of the packett last night.
"Oouh." Trevor looks at the bone saw in his hand, and puts it aside. "Ok, well then- " He helps with the removal of the breast bone. "Ok, so we pin the flaps back aaaand.... Ok."
"Ta-da, we have stomach and intestine, large small and decending or accending." Delphi says pulling out her disposalable camer which is the most effect way to take good notes in the class.
