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.

Boys. Always covering for each other. Noel folded her arms, but the slightly sour look on her face was no more surly than her usual. "So long as you both learned something." It was a bit late to get huffy about it. No one was hurt any more. They were even cleaning up after themselves. What more could she ask?
"Any more lessons for today?" Noel put her hand to the hilt of her sword. If she joined in, next time they wouldn't be able to get away so easily.
Bros stuck up for each other. No matter what century you were born in, this was always the case. Sebastian and Aedus stood united, and Noel's stony look crumbled in the face of their solidarity. If the fistbump had been invented a few centuries earlier, Sebastian might have thought to use it in this instance. It wasn't, and so he didn't, but he did give Aedus a hearty pat on the shoulder.
No harm done. See, he was still good as new. Better, even, perhaps. He was also shirtless, which made it obvious how much he worked out. Sebastian estimated that he could have gotten the shirt clean again just by rubbing it a few times against those abs of his.
It did not matter how often or how long the unicorn man worked out. He wouldn't, even in a million years, have a figure like that. He'd always be slim. In shape, strong, yes, but slim.
Well, if Aedus was going to show off what nature gave him, then Sebastian could too, in a slightly different manner of speaking; Noel had her hand on her sword and looked ready to go. Sebastian grinned.
He would shoot a covert grin at Sebastian while Noel wasn’t looking but while she was still paying attention he was all business the slightest, yay we got away with it celebration might negate the fact they got away with anything.
Aedus glanced own at his chest. Why the hell not? He should be dead right now, bleeding out at the very least testing the theory to see if his lava and obsidian form would save him from a fatal wound, or if his body would return back to its prior state and leave him with a sword wound to the chest. But no, he was in fighting shape and to be perfectly honest, he felt more energetic than he did in the morning before this day had begun.
“Sounds good to me.” He could afford to be a little bit more daring now, at worst Sebastian would sew him up at the end of it right? He looked to Noel; at the very least he could be enough of a pain in the ass to give Noel a chance to get a few good shots in, right? He lowered one hand to his sheath and put the other on his hilt.
She couldn't help but give Sebastian a little bit of an exasperated look. "Against the two of us? Well that's not very fair to Aedus. He just started." Noel had said to not hurt him or humiliate him as MacMillan had tried to hurt and humiliate Sebastian. This crossed that line and earned hands on hips.
