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.

Her head spun. Her eyes swam with blurred colours of orange flame and greenery. Filling the air was a lucrid smell of burning metal. She must do something,no point in a few minutes rest... that would almost certainly mean death by fire. Worst, death by carelessness. Drawing on a reserve of power inside, Carrie became a shimmering liquid mass for the second time that night, and began to tackle the fire. Slowly, but efficiently. A few burns won't be too overwhelming. She hoped.
"Well, Mr Banks has a way of knowing damned near everything it seems," Lucas said with a smile, "Guess it keeps him ahead of the game. I sware at times that he's bloody psychic. Maybe he is. Anyway, he'll be here soon enough. I best go check the security, last thing we need is the bots deciding to pay us a visit." Offering a final smile Lucas rose and went to do his duties.
A few minutes later Anne entered. "Any injuries?" she asked, in a tone which clearly said that she was not here for small talk, and just to check that Alexandra wasn't about to die on them.
Alexandra heard as if trough dream Lucas' final words. As he left she fell into what she hoped to be a peaceful dream. When Anne entered the room to check on her, she didn't hear her question, nor the cold tone the woman used.
Upon getting no response Anne gave her a quick glance over. No obvious injuries and anything the girl could sleep through could wait.
Ten minutes later Nigel entered. He'd been informed that Alexandra was sleeping, but he needed to wake her to move her to a safer location. Moving over to her he shook her lightly. "Wake up," he said, "time to go".
The ten minutes sleep felt more refreshing than an entire's day sleep. Alexandra opened her eyes widely and looked at Nigel. "Mr. Banks. Sorry." she said as she got up from the bed, ready to follow him.
"Follow me," Nigel said as he lead her towards the exit, "Lucas, locations of the nearest Stalkers?". "You've got five hundred meters, but it's closing," came the reply. "Come on." Nigel quickly lead Alexandra outside.
Without pause he made his way over to his car across the street and opened the door for Alexandra to get in. Once she was in he checked in the car's wing mirror and saw a Stalker closing down the street. Getting in his side he started the engine and sped away.
"We have an apartment set up for you," he explained as he drove away from the Stalker, "and you'll have to lay low for a few days until we can clear you off the local law enforcement radar. Mr Antonescu will be free in a few days and likely come and pay you a visit personally."
Alexandra listened carefully what Nigel said and nodded. It wasn't bothering her to keep a low profile for a few days. She felt like she needed some rest. A good amound of sleep and she will be just as new. "I will be waiting." she answered. As Nigel's indications ended and he focused on driving, she turned her head to look out the window and took her time to view the city. "Welcome to New York!" she said to herself, a smile on her face. She felt like her life will become much more interesting from now.
