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.

“ Clients huh? Well that works too, but don’t close your mind off completely to the idea of joining the order. Get a taste of it before you toss out the idea completely of having them at your beck and call if you need to get out of trouble as well.”
“that said, it makes sense, I am sure we will look forward to whatever arrangements are made.” Venus spoke as his fingers playfully walked across whatever limb was closest. " what services do you offer exactly?"
Euphoria smirked at him. "I am not good team player," she explained. "But we shall see, yes? I keep open mind." She stretched her feet out. Maybe she'd get a massage before she left. She had made some valuable business connections today. She deserved it.
She tapped her fingers thoughtfully. "What service? I am of many talent. I have contacts in high places, con games too. I have power to create drug-like pleasure, which I sell. Also, I am good with a knife. Or gun. Really, anything that make job done. In fact, this is service I offer: get job done."
“few of us truly are, my brothers and I tend to work well together and so long as we don’t get in each other’s way we tend to get what we need to done. That aside we make it work somehow.” He nodded slightly to her ascent to keep an open mind. “ that is all I ask.”
“That is something few people offer blatantly and up front, they usually tell you they will do this or that, but keeping it as completing a task, I can respect that.” His fingers found their way to her shoulders and for his size and girth his fingers were surprisingly nimble, kneading any remnant of stress out of them.
Euphoria nearly purred with pleasure, leaning back into his hands. She would definitely have to keep this one around. "I have partner from time to time," she told him. "I find to trust is difficult. Maybe is issue I should work off." The last part was said dryly, a smirk on her lips.
"So tell me, how this work, hm? I do not think I will just walk into Sanctuary. What I must do to earn this?" She had her suspicions- about everything, really. Nothing came free. Everything had a catch. Leyla looked back at him, gauging his expression to see how much he might hide.
A frail looking Polish girl wandered into the room, picking up discarded towels. Leyla snapped at her in Russian, a few brisk orders. "You want drink?" she asked him.
“I understand, trust is a tricky thing. If you need some help with that work, let me know.” His fingers working out any and every last bit of tension out of her shoulders and back.
Venus smirked. “Walk in with me and you certainly do just walk in. You don’t have to earn it so much as prove your worth, when a task is handed to you. As you said trust is difficult until you prove where you stand. And we prove to you that we have your back as well. Besides you are offering your services and the order takes good care of those that take care of it.”
He smiled lightly at the girl to take some of the sting out of whatever Euphoria was telling the poor girl. “I’ll have whatever you are having.” He said with ease.
Barking a few more words at the girl, she leaned back into his hands and sighed. The girl skittered out of the room. "These little Polack girls, they are like rabbit in front of car," she laughed. Glancing back at her rosy-hued friend, she frowned thoughtfully.
"Alright. I go with you to visit your people. Are you so important there? Or is everyone trust so much?" She sat up and rolled her shoulders experimentally. The man was good with his fingers. "When should we go?"
"I'm guessing your tone might have something to do with it." Venus observed quietly in an amused tone. His fingers needed the woman's nicely tanned skin, his own bright red fingers contrasting against her flesh brightly.
"Perhaps it is both, I have been a part of the order through thick and thin, though we tend to take people at face value until they give us a reason to think otherwise, we try to provide an environment that is inviting to our kind." Venus looked to the lovely woman before him who was experimentally ready to observe the Order at work, flirting with the notion of working for or with them."
He observed her readiness to see the way the operated and appreciated the eagerness. "We can go whenever you like. If you want to be introduced today we can work with introducing you to whoever is available, or we can plan something a bit more formal and professional once I can insure there are some of the inner circle on hand."
