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.

Vibe finally emerged from the dressing room, wearing one top and holding up another, both almost identical in color. She looked in the mirror and tilted her head to one side.
"Navi, I can't decide between the moss or the sage. Which looks better?" No answer. "Naveed, wake up. Naveed?" Vibe turned around, but the giant man had disappeared. One of the other men waiting for his date pointed toward the door. She huffed and began tapping her foot, hands on her hips.
"They both look good," he offered as she strode toward the front of the store. Through the window she could see him checking out the interactive video games. Vibe rolled her eyes.
"I swear he's just an overgrown kid." Shaking her head, she returned to her own personal fashion show. "Well, maybe you're right. But I just can't decide...." She smiled winningly at the man and the others still waiting.
After many more debates and show offs, and numerous daggered stares from the other women whose men's attentions she stole, Vibe settled on a number of outfits. After purchase she returned to the dressing room, then finally strode out onto the sidewalk in an ivory Sateen blouse and 'moss-colored' cropped pants, with a matching ivory half-trench coat against the winter chill.
She strode over to the crowd watching Naveed dance.
<"If you can call it that."> She never had been a fan of video games. Why bother, when you can go outside and cause just as much havoc on the real world, and enjoy it ten times more? Not to mention you stay so much healthier. As long as you weren't caught, of course.
"Are you done yet?" she asked boredly once the game finished whatever level he was on.
Naveed didn;t hear her at first, he was leaping and jumping like a mad man. "You call this difficult?" he yelled to his opponent who was obvilously more winded than Navi was and obviously less skilled. "This is my first time playing man, keep up!"
when the alarm sounded that he had beaten the highest score Naveed hopped off the machine and had barely broken a sweat.
He turned on his heels and picked up his jacket slinging it over his shoulder. "Sorry..." he started to exlain "I got caught up-" that's when he actually looked at her and saw the outfit. "uhhh.." he stared a moment. "pretty." he spat out in a caveman esq way. He shook his head a little embaressed. The other guys who had been playing the game looked on enviously at the beautiful woman Navi was with. "I mean, those colours work for you M'lady!" he grinned his cheesy grin.
"Now that we've got some threads and no giant metal heads to run from, where to next?" he extended his arm in a gentlemen like way.
"Sorry... I got caught up- uhhh..." Naveed stared at her for a bit. She crossed her arms boredly, waiting for him to finish. "Pretty." She blinked. "I mean, those colours work for you M'lady!"
She smirked and preened. "I know," she replied vainly.
"Now that we've got some threads and no giant metal heads to run from, where to next?"
"Well, I'm nearly out of money, so I guess shopping is out for the rest of the day. Unless you feel like 'convincing' someone to lighten their wallet for us." Vibe sighed and shrugged. "I suppose I should be getting back ho-.... I mean, work. I need to check in with my boss." She wasn't sure she wanted Hunter to know about Naveed, but she had a feeling Syn would be very interested in his power.
"I can drop you off home," she offered, smiling sweetly. "I'll bet your girlfriend is probably worried by now." She was trying to find out a few more details, just in case Syn asked.
Naveed sneered. "Girlfriend? Naveed big brave man, Naveed need no girlfriend." he pounded his chest with a smerk. "But a ride to the hotel wouldn't be so bad... then again... that car..." he complained. Outside it was snowing pretty bad and though he was used to snow he wasnt used to it in such nice clothing. "I guess that's the best bet then fishie." he smiled sincerely. "I enjoyed our day together, You kick a mean stalker ass." he grinned.
It was true, he was a little sad to no longer have a female sidekick, but more than happy to head home and have a shower.
"Girlfriend? Naveed big brave man, Naveed need no girlfriend."
Vibe raised an eyebrow. "Whatever you say, Tarzan...." To herself she thought, >Uh huh.... subject to steer clear of....<
"But a ride to the hotel wouldn't be so bad... then again... that car... I guess that's the best bet then fishie."
Okay, that did it.
"I enjoyed our day together, You kick a mean stalker ass."
"Aww, thanks! You weren't so bad yourself. In fact, I really think I owe you a thank you." Vibe smiled sweetly, and made a 'come here' motion with her finger. She waited for him to bend down, then leaned in, like she was going to give him a kiss....
..... Then smacked him upside the head.
"Remind me later. When you get my name right." Still smiling prettily, she turned on her heel and headed back to the car. Over her should she added cheerily, "Coming?"
Naveed bought into every flirtatious movement until he found himself with her little palm mark across his face. He rubbed it but coudln't help but smile. "I knew I felt something between us- your hand! Youch!" he gave a smile and followed after her into the car squishing himself in to head home.
