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.

Gorgon turned at the shouting of the police, and stooped in her havoc wreaking, observing Chaos with a critical eye- not a stony one, fortunately. She pointed at him. "<You. Who are you?>" She demands.
*he stood up straight and let out a short bow* "my friends call me chaos........and you have an incredible power.....but this is all wrong." * He stumbled back a bit as the dark purple glow covered both of his arms....he let out a short cry of pain as the glow faded and dissaperd.....taking a moment he regrasped himself....*"And you are?"
She pauses, fluent in English, but having to switch gears mentally. "I am.... My parents named me Makoto. But these fools do not see me as someone who had parents to name her." She gestures angrily to the now pretty dispersed crowd.
*he stood for a moment and replied* "they're like that to me also....most of the time they just run away and scream.....calling me evil.....then those stupid machines show up"
"Yessss...." She hisses on her sibilant "S"es. "They are short ssssighted." She looks him over, jumping down from the car. Once on the ground, it becomes apparent how small she is- only 4'6". "Are you like me?"
*he took a moment as to take in her question* "yes i have powers...but its difficult to explain them" *he stared down at the bracers on his arms......they steal the power once he gets them.......giving him a very breif experience with powers*
"Power isss good." She says, so very sure of herself. She is about to say something else, when reinforcements show up for the other squadron that is now more or less stoned. Gorgon hisses, her hair wriggling out of it's hood, looking about, wanting to know what's going on.
"i have memory flash backs now and again....i know u from somewhere.....from another time....but i cant remember much of my past.......my friends tell me i use to be very evil.....and they fear me around them as such"

After sometime of wandering the city Ire happened upon a place named Time Square, or so the sign indicated. Something didn't seem right here. Ire felt a vile power emanating not far off. Deciding to check the area he made his way farther in. Then he saw it, there stood a hooded being, Chaos, and a good amount of those men with the uniforms he had run into before. Many people stood fast to the ground in a stone state, Ire reasoned that the hooded figure or Chaos had something to do with it. Ire made his way to them.
Gorgon looks at him oddly, her hair observing the cops which are trying to form a circle around them. "I do not know you." She says simply, as if this is the plainest truth in the world. "Your friendssss do not sssound asss if they.... like you."
"well they have helped me a lot, specially when those robots decided they wanted to play tether ball with me......literally.....and besides there nic......"*he paused for a moment...he could feel something...He turned and notice ire standing there watching....silently*
Gorgon glances casually over to the group of police trying to possibly heard them from her right, stoning them. Her hair, hissing at her incessantly, wanting to get out, all the way out, finally bothers her enough that she does push her hood back.

Taking a step back Ire could not believe what he saw. She was the reason for the men of stone all about. Then he thought of how to explain himself to a beast while gripping his swords under his cloak.
"What you've done, that is vile. Harming innocents, to what gain?"
