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.

*the bus driver pulled up at the end of the busy new york city street, opening the doors to let everyone out.* alright everyone, come on. PLEASE REMEMBER...NO POWERS, OK!? *there were a few moans, rolling of the eyes, and "yes, ms. tipper"s as tricity went down the stairs and opened her shoulder bag. after rummaging around, she found her clipboard and checked off the names of everyone coming out of the bus.* GOOD! now everyone, please stay together! no fooling around...we go straight into city hall for registration and we come straight back to the bus to grab lunch in manhatten, got it? *johnathon took the back of the group, making sure there were no stragglers as tricity went to the front, leading the way toward city hall.*
He was standing in line, waiting. He carried his impressive Masamune in his left hand, and was not going to give it up. He noticed a security guard approaching him. "I'm not giving you my blade, so don't even ask." The guard hand his hand on his gun in it's holster. "Sir, you are not allowed to carry a blade longer that the length of your hand. I'm going to have to confascate that weapon." "No, your not. You are not a cop, and you have no say in the law. And even if you were a cop, I'd still not give you my sword." He did not notice another guard approaching from behind him. The guard stopped while the other one was talking to him. "Sir, I'm giving you a warning." He looked into the guard's eyes, and saw them move for a moment to behind him. " I'm not giving up this sword. " It happened with the speed of lightning. As the guards began to draw their firearms, he dropped his blade to his foot, and ducked down low, pushing his hands out in both directions. There was a crackle of electricity, and then the guards were both send flying as what looked like lightning hit the guards in the chest, coming from his hands. He then kicked the Masamune up, catching it in his left hand. He quickly looked around, seeing that more guards were coming.
*as tricity and the kids walked into city hall, she noticed the commotion. people were screaming and guards were running toward the line where mutants were waiting to be registered.* dammit...already...?? *tricity put her arms up, indicating for the children to stop procedding any further into the hall. she turned to johnathon.* stay here ok? watch them... *he nodded and tricity cautiously walked forward, trying to see what was going on. a guard grabbed her arm to hold her back, but she yanked it away.* dont touch me... *she said softly. the guard pushed past her and moved toward the commotion. as tricity looked around, she recognized a few of the mutants from visiting xavier's school. they were backing away, trying to not get involved with what was happening. tricity finally saw the man that was causing all the trouble. she'd never seen him before and it appeared he was holding a weapon that was probably the cause of all this drama.* great...

Wings folded as the young girl stiid in City Hall, her eyes scanned the area. She pulled on her coat to hide her wings and stood near the line where she heard "Im not giving up my sword" Smiling, Rain looked over and sure enough guards were running towards a male who she sensed was neutral. Not evil and not good but caught in the middle. "Hey you need help?" she asked running near him
"I'll be fine kiddo." he said to the young girl. A guard rushed him, and recieved a hard elbow to the face, knowing him backwards. He then felt more powerful suddenly, as a guard tasered him in the back. He used the taser rod as a conductor and fried the guard, dropping him to the ground. He took up a Jeet Kune Do fighting stance, sending a powerful kick to another guard, hitting him in the stomach. He looked around, seeing that the numbers game was getting to be maybe more that he could handle. He put his hand out, and sent what looked like lightning into an outlet, overloading the breakers, causing the power to go out. In the darkness, there was then what looked to be a fireball. It moved backwards, then went flying towards the entrance, knocking out a part of the wall. He jumped through the hole, landing on his feet outside the building. It would be easy to escape in the confusion
*her students began to scream in fright. tricity screamed for johnathon to collect everyone and wait outside. she jumped out onto the street, running as fast as she could in her high heeled leather boots.* HEY!! WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM?
He looked over at the woman. She seemed to be harmless. "They started it, I was just defending myself, lady. I'm always defending myself. It's not easy to be someone that is hated by so many. Why am I talking to you about this? You don't know what it's like to be what I am." he siad, lifting his right hand towards her. Bright blue lights began to gather in his palm, coming from inside his body. They gathered, forming lightning that he held in his hand. He was going to fire it at the woman, but he saw behind her a scared young child, watching him and the woman. He closed his hand, dissolving the lightning blast, turned, and started to walk away.
yea, well i can see you dont give a shit about the rest of us that are trying to live in peace! i have a bunch of kids here trying to register...and that little electric stunt you were about to pull doesn't do anything against me, jr... *tricity said, pushing sarah behind her.*
" You think I don't want to live a normal life? That I don't care about anyone? Well you know what, you're wrong! All I want is to know who I am, and what I am!" he stopped, and looked to his side. "You, you know? Is that asking too much?" he said, looking back at her.
no it's not, but you need to control yourself if you wanna be this so-called 'normal'! you gotta comply with some of the humans' bullshit rules so we can live 'normal' until there is some peace brought about and a bit of understanding. trust me...i know all about it... *tricity said as she heard police sirens coming down the street. she looked back over at the man.* well, do you have somewhere to go, cause it sounds like they will be here in a few minutes?
He looked at her, not being one to give his trust to easily. "I'm never giving up my blade, it's all I have of my past, and no, I don't have anywhere to go. I've not had a place to go for five months."
well... *tricity hesitated, but had the feeling he wouldnt be much against her and some of the other kids if he were to get out of hand on the bus.* you can come back to the mansion with us if you'd like. maybe try this registration another day?
