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.

The kiss was sweet, Quin thought, amending her adjective when Nate pulled away and dubbed the action "cheesy". It was cute. In fact, the whole thing had been as cute as a situation like that could possibly be. Quin had questions, and curiosities, and things she wanted to double check, but she mentally scolded herself. This was her boyfriend, not a perp who needed to be interrogated. Besides. It was Valentine's Day and they were eating fondue.
"Besides." she said, digging back into the food, "None of that matters, because eventually you ended up here. With me, and a steady job, and a good life."
From there, dinner lapsed into a comfortable silence for a few minutes while the couple ate. The meat was good, and the sauces tasty as well. Quin was proud of herself and the success she'd had with the cooking, and she watched carefully to see that Nate ate every morsel and went back for more until the sizable portion of main course food she'd gathered was gone.
Setting down her fork with an audible clink, Quin grinned and rose slowly from the table.
"Ready for dessert?" Yup. There was chocolate too. Good chocolate, and strawberries, and angel food cake cubes, marshmallows and even gummy bears. The stops hadn't just been pulled out. They hadn't been there to begin with.
Nate smiled, nodding. She was right; whatever happened in his past, it lead him to this moment. He had stability and a job and delicious food and an amazing girlfriend.
Life was good.
And there was chocolate.
His ears perked up at the suggestion of dessert. She brought out a tray of treats, and he could already taste the sweet sugar on his tongue. He was also acutely aware that the chocolate portion of the night provided more "creative opportunities" than cheese. He grabbed his fork and replied, "Absolutely, sugar."

Chocolate was one of those things that had a tendency to make everything better. Even in small doses. In giant pots with lots of stuff to dip…chocolate was a Godsend.
Nate agreed. Quin could see it on his face.
Down she sat, wasting no time and dipping a strawberry into the molten liquid.
”Mmmm.” she said a moment later. ”This was a great idea.”
Nate skewered a piece of angel food cake and submerged it into the gooey chocolate. Chewing the soft cube, Nate looked around the tray, finding a marshmallow for his fork. He thought about bringing the treat to his own lips, but changed his mind.
"A fantastic idea," he agreed. He extended the offering to Quin, doing his best to keep the melted chocolate from dripping on his date.
