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.

Kage got out of the vehicle, his left arm wrapped in medical bandage due to the flesh burning away, revealing thick emerald green scales from his elbow down. He approached the location where Tric was standing, and looked at Mike and Merc. " Who are these two? "
*tricity could tell cass was probably talking to mercury telepathically since they both became very quiet.* "HEY!!" *she said, pointing at cassiel.* "No powers...now, tell me what's going on here??"
Kage laughed, as his eyes shifted from Merc to Mike. " Let me guess... " He said, as he took a few steps forward, being between Tric and the two boys, " Students of yours? "
"I don't know anymore. These can't be my students..." *she said, looking between cassiel and mercury.* "WELL?! Not one of you has answered my question. WHAT are you doing?? And it was behoove you not to lie to me because Professor Xavier will know if you do."
"No, you didn't know what I was planning on doing, Mercury. Hell, I didn't even know what I was planning on doing."
He sighed, turning back to Tricity. "All right, let's start at the beginning... about a half hour ago, in that building, a man was acquitted of an extremely brutal assault and rape. He did it, and I know, because I could feel it from his victim. I've felt it every night from her since it happened, every time she locked herself in her bedroom crying, every time she relived it in her sleep, I felt all of it." Though he didn't intend it, Mike was growing more animated, though not in any sort of threatening way. His eyes were watering, and there was a very distinct catch in his voice as he spoke. His eyes were again glowing, just as they always did whenever he was in an emotional state.
"I finally figured out who she was and that she was going to court today... her pain was like a beacon, I could latch onto it, track it, it was easier than I ever would have expected. So I talked Mercury into coming with me... I don't know what I thought I was going to do, really." Mike took a deep breath, trying to clear his head. "He left, we followed. I got him to walk through here where I was waiting for him... and I gave it to him. Everything I'd picked up from the girl he tortured... I gave him a taste of it."
Mike was unsure if he should keep going. He didn't know what to make of the fact that he lost some of his control over himself during the affair, and he wasn't sure he wanted to know what Tricity would make of it, either.
*she put an arm on kage to inform him to stop.* "That doesn't make it right to do that to him, Mike." *tricity turned to mercury, crossing her arms over her chest.* "And your hand in it??"
"No, we didn't. And he didn't even slightly know how far I even planned to take it. I thought I could just steer the prosecution, or make him afraid to lie in court, or..." Mike was about to say 'sway the judge,' but thought better of it. "But... I couldn't even think in there. So much emotion flying around, it was too much. I screwed that up... and he lied his way out." So I made it all better.
