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.

My time has finally freed up, which means I can have more threads with Elise. Yay!
I was wondering if there were any friendly individuals out there that would like to play with Elise. I'm open to any suggestions, so wacky, crazy, or just normal all are welcome.
Locke: Yay! You were thinking a dance lesson thread right? I would be up for it, if that's still what you want to do.
Ahorta/Fade: Oh, tough choice. There are so many possibilities for both... but I haven't had any really crazy threads with Elise yet, so if you want to have some fun with Ahorta, I'd be more than happy to play along.
Sounds like a plan. She's likes havoc. Where would you want them to meet? The best place for her to do something crazy is somewhere where there are triggers, like a bar, on a street with a bunch of harlots or even at a pet store. What were you thinking?
Locke: Wonderful awkward moments will occur then. Do we want to say that Elise offered free dance classes as a birthday present to Locke a few weeks ago, but neither could really start them until now due to school/colleges/SAT/whatnot?
Ahorta: Elise is legally a little young to go to a bar, and she isn't one to do anything illegal. What could be a stressful situation for them both that Elise would actually go to?
How about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade? Lots of people, animals, basically everything Ahorta has issues with, and its about the right timeframe too. Would that be OK, or would it lead to a bit too large of a situation?
Yup, that sounds great, Ahorta hates all those big celebrations and a giant floating turkey might just fall under at least one of her phobias. Shall I start it or would you like to?
There are so many possibilities for both... but I haven't had any really crazy threads with Elise yet, so if you want to have some fun with Ahorta, I'd be more than happy to play along.
