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.

Aura coughed and opened her eyes, Her Aura flaring to life she looked around and saw nothing of the cafe or even the city she had been in just a few moments ago. She stood up and looked around again, the plants looked huge and when she noticed giant shadows overhead she looked up, if not for her sister's interest in dinosaurs she might have assumed she had ended up in africa somehow. But aura knew the huge winged animal above her was a dinosaur, something that be all accounts should have been very dead. Aura shook her head recalling what she had felt just prior. "Sayre! she screamed as loud as she could, but Sayre could not hear her, nor could anyone else it seemed.
Aura felt the ground shake violently and struggled to stay on her feet, barely managing to turn, Aura soon found the reason the earth had betrayed her. Extracting her sword, she turned and say a pillar od scales as her eyes looked up, she found she had to step back several yards just to get a good look at the creature. As Aura backed up, she realized the creature might have well been bigger then sanctuary itself. The Long slender neck reminded her of a few animals she knew she wanted to try and eat, but this was simply ridiculously big. Aura was still backing up when she hit something solid, turning she saw another of the beasts, this one was bigger, but it did not even notice her. The Giants were lowering the heads to drink water. Carefully moving back from the Shore Aura realized their were twelve of the land leviathans and while most of them drank two or three always looked around.
Aura knew nature, and she knew animals well enough to realize this was a pray response. Aura has no idea what somthing that big could be looking for, but she had far better things to find. Aura took out her cellphone, it read out of range. Shaking her head, Aura kept on the move, she had no idea where she going, if her mind was a plaything again, she likely would never know and if she really was with animals like this, which had died millions of years ago, then could she have gone back in time? Aura had no idea if it was possible and the idea honestly scared her to know end, if someone could warp time, they could wipe mutant kind from ever existing. Aura plunged into the forest feeling she would fare better under the cover of the plants.
Hours later Aura felt her stomach growl. It was odd as Aura had just eaten, but then she realized she had no way of knowing how long she had been out, or what effect the Mutant power that put her here might have had. Aura came to a clearing, cutting a mosquito, the size of her head in half and soon she came to a clearing in the trees, as well as an Egg that was easily four foot long, their had been another Aura saw, but it was cracked open and Aura realized something had likely eaten the other egg. beleiving this to be a pray animal Aura grabbed the other heavy egg and made her way roughly a half hour in the woods untill she came upon a small clearing. There she easily gathered wood and used a lighter to ignote it, using her Aura sword to break open the egg she watched the giant omelet burn on her rock pan. it was only while Aura was half way through the best Omelet she had ever had that heard somthing scream with fury and emerge into the clearing.
Dropping her food, Aura realized just what the long neck dinosaurs had been afraid of. This thing's teeth looked the Size of her Arm. While Aura stood there in shock the creature proving surprisingly fast. The name Came to Mind as Aura began to run for the tree line, Tyranasourus rex, she noticed the beast stopped at the shattered egg and sniffed a few times. Then the enraged giant hand bag was after her again and Aura promised to kill whoever brought her to this place.
Aura arrived the Tyranasaur, by leaping quickly to her left, the creature did not turn nearly as well as shot past her, she heard a few smaller tree's snap however as it barreled into a thin stand of tree's and fell over onto it's side. Aura decided not to chance thing's and took off at a run, her Aura blades made quick work of the local foliage and Aura was relieved when the forest became more dense, it would be harder for the behemoth to get through.
SHe heard a loud roar in the distance behind her and wondered if it was the same monster she had just scene. Aura slowed down as she broke through the foliage to find herself in a place she liked less. In front of her was a large body of what Aura assumed was freash water. Back on earth, or in her time anyway such a thing would not have been an issue, here however things tended to eb larger then the average house.
Sure enough Aura felt a hard impact against her back which sent her rolling onto the sandy lake. SHe was able to see, a roughly man sized creature, but what caught Aura's eye immediately was the long sharp claw on each foot. Their was also more then one Aura realized as she had to bat one's nose aside with a quickly formed Aura hammer. She did littile damage to the creature however it did let her climb to her feet, she realized their were six of the beasts around her.
Forming an Aura sword, she could see the curiosity and thought behind this creature's eyes, Aura lunged forward and scored a deep red gash across the creatures snout. Aura briefly entertained the plan of swimming for it, but then saw a very large reptile surface for a few moments before diving back under. This world was filled with very deadly animals and Aura was unsure her powers put her on par with most of these beats at all.
