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.

"Alright then." Desiree said, she quickly exited the ring, and returned with two kendo sticks. She tossed one to Daria, and readied herself. "I'll let you start this, I'm ready when you are." Desiree said confidently.

Daria took the swod with her tail and threw it to the side.
"I said YOU could use props if you wish. I shall go without." she said politly. As a rule she wasn't used to attacking first but she she had to do something so she started lightly moving forward with a jump and a snap kick aimed at Desiree's chest.

Desiree whirled around, apparently aiming the kendo sword at Daria's head. Of course, she wasn't going to bother with weapons at this point, her main goal was confusion. She ducked down, attempting to sweep Daria's feet out from under her while the sword hand mid-air as Desiree tossed it at Daria's head lightly.

Daria turned her kick into a back flip avoiding the sword aimed at her head and the kick aimed at her feet. Shortly after Desiree's leg grazed the spot where Daria had been standing, the Cat mutant landed on her hands and then to her feet.
She slid back in the usual Tae Kwon Do Style and put her hands up defensivly. She didn't pause in between and aimed a skilled ax kick at the red-head's face.

Desiree turned to the side and took a step back, the crowd gasping as they saw Daria's agility comparing to Desiree's. As she stepped back to avoud the kick, she lifted her leg gracefully but fast towards Daria's face, doing what appeared to be a standing split.

Daria barely missed the kick, which she hadn't expected to be so close.-almost no one matched her kicks.- She leaned back as her foot came down to meet the floor and a snap shot of the moment would've looked like some wonderous dance. Precise and graceful.
