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.

I plan on majoring specifically in mutation, opportunities like this don't occur very often. *Delphi points out, not yet voulenteering the I am a mutant card.*
It is easy to see the resentments building between mutants and non-mutants, before segration happens their needs to be people willing to treat everyone equally. That would be my practice plans as for research their are millions of different forms os manifestations caused by mutation. Study of the mutant gene might better help to classify mutations and treat healt threatening ones. *Delphi explains pour out her goal for her future.*
"Alright then. Let's look at this from my perspective then, shall we? I've a waiting list of superclass med-students waiting to assist on one of my autopsies. If I just give out that position to an undergrad... on an autopsy that thesis papers are made of... There could be near rioting. You're a pre-med. Dr. Kestet seems to think you're skilled, though. Are you?"
*Delphi nodds but lets him ponder, if she senses a no at all she'll admit to being a mutant and pray this will not affect her at the school. She has never met the man and has no idea how he'll handle the information.*
I see that you can't quite justify moving me to te front of the line so I'll lay down my final plea here. Part of the reason I am so dedicated to this is because I am a mutant and I am trusting this information is something you could keep to your self.*Del says nervously.*
No I think my telling you I'm a mutant will tell you exactly how dedicated I am to this, that and the fact that I could camp outside your office day and night till either you let me in on this or another one comes along and I am on the tops of the list. Because by my fourth year here I plan on being at the top of any list. *Del says rather daringly, she has spunk he has to admit.*
What do you want you're emotions or the future? And what you're about to say is, and I quote. "Claiming you can see the future with any accuracy is a pretty big boast and I'd like to see that." *Delphi says before he can.* And so you can see I don't exagerate right now while you're somewhat surprised at me you also are conceling something your self.
