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.

So, Lumen is a freelance private eye who's in NYC. I'd like to have her contracted out by the NYPD to help track down some of the missing children. So Im looking for people to RP with who could help facilitate the contracting process e.g. cops (we could set up a meeting at a coffee shop or something where Lumen is presented with some of the case files) and/or I'd like to meet up with anyone who knows about the missing children. Maybe a parent, a friend, whatever. Just someone who could meet Lumen to give her more information etc.
Im not specifically planning any outcomes I'd just like to have some of these things happen so it makes a little more sense for Lumen to have information about the current plot

'Ello Lumen! Sounds like an excellent idea! I can always offer you Jorge here if you like. He's a pretty good cop and always has his a variety of cases he's working on. I'm sure we can figure something if you like.
that would be lovely We could do a thread where they already know they're meeting to discuss Lumen being a potential outside specialist. Perhaps Jorge could interview her, or we could assume she's already been contracted and he's her first meeting, or we could do something a little more informal and just spontaneously meet each other. let me know your preference and I'd be happy to start

Hmmm, I love all the ideas! But alas I must pick one. Hmmm, maybe Jorge and Lumen could meet while they are each investigating clues? Or I do like the idea where she contacts him after she has been contracted. I'm good with them all and I'm pretty adaptable to any scenario.
