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.

yea, actually i grew up in manhatten. i love the city, i hope i have some form of residence here for the rest of my life even if i move elsewhere. *she answered, but quickly changed the subject.* ya know, that doesnt really answer why the cops are after you...is it because you were part of the mafia too? or are they assuming you are because your father was?
"Oh sorry I didnt mean to be dodgy, its just habit from all thopse years. And to answer your question yes I was part of the mafia my father founded. I was his right hand man and its not like the title was just given to me either. I started at the bottom and worked my way up to Aire to the throne so to speak." he explained to her as he watched her reactions to this.
He motioned her to walk with him. They strolled down towards the beach. "Well, both I loved every minute of it and its all I ever knew. The challenge was always there and the victory was always astounding being that I am what I am, you know?" he said as he stooped down and picked up a pure white seashell. He handed it to her.
uh, thanks... *she said, taking it from him and playing with the seashell in her fingers. she thought it was stranged that a man from the mafia would pick up something so pretty.* frankly, i'm sorry you had such a life. it must have been very hard.
"Thank you for the sympathy, oh and I saw the look you gave me when I handed you the shell. Just because my past and future are laden with blood and gore and underworld crime associated things doesnt mean I cant still see beauty where it lie in natures hand." He nodded to the sea. I used to take dads yacht out into the deep blue sea and go deep sea fishing but not for the fish, just for the beauty of the one thing that man hasnt devistated yet."
*this took tricity by surprise. her days with the mafia never produced a man like this.* i agree...men have the tendancy to destroy everything they touch. so, when did you learn about your mutation? *she said, stopping near the sand and bending over to lift up her pant legs to take her leather boots off.*
Cage thought of something watching her take her boot off. Then he smiled wide and excitedl;y asked her a question. "Hey! you wouldnt wanna go for a ride would you? Ive always wanted to take somebody for a ride in the water but no ones got the guts to say yes."
a...a ride? i cant, im sorry. *she said thinking of her troubled pregnancy.* i've been getting bad stomach aches lately. but maybe some other time. i love riding out on the water. *she noticed he didnt answer about the mutation.* so...you just gonna brush off that question about your mutation. you didnt ask me if i was a mutant after all this.
"Oh, ok no problem." he said a little disapointed. "Yea sorry about that like I said its habitual anyway I already know your a mutant.If you werent capable of 'Handling yourself' you wouldnt have shown up here to chat with me alone." Thus i deduced your of mutational genetics yourself. Although I have to admit I dont know what you are capable of. That kinda makes me nervous about being alone, but there isnt much that can catch me if I feel the need, the need for speed." he grinned again. He was liking this dame. She stuck to the point but was also nice about it.

The sound of crashing waves filled Ire's ears as he closed in upon a beach. The air was sweet with the smell of the salt and sand. It had been sometime since he had seen the ocean, it was nice to gaze upon the water once again. Scanning the length of the beach from a distance he saw two figures. The taller male he did not recognize but the female he knew all too well. He smiled and watched as the two conversed.
dont take humans too lightly; they are quite capable of a lot. BUT, you're right. i am a mutant. people call me tricity. *she said, picking up her boots and walking down the beach with him.* i dont know if i should be out here with you. if the police were to see i was with you, i could lose my school. we have a bit of an agreement...
"I see. I dont want you to lose your agreement but i do enjoy your company. You neednt worry about being spotted with me they dont know where i am. I can be pretty elusive when need be."
