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.

well i'm trying to get things back together again. gorgon isn't stupid enough to come back here though. i think she's changed somehow...she seems different. *tricity said, as johnathon woke up and nodded to her while he left the infirmary to head to class.* i'm gonna have to go cancel a class for now to stay with the doc and the girl that's been stoned. i'll be right back...
gorgon of course...we had a run-in with her at the zoo during a field trip. *she put an arm around his shoulder.* how are you doing? everything alright?
*the healer was looking over the young girl who had been stoned the day before by gorgon while tricity and a few of the students went to the central park zoo for a field trip.* how is she doc? docprof: "she should be free any minute, delilah." good... *she said, pacing around the infirmary. tricity looked over at johnathon who was resting overnight after getting his arm bandage.*
like i said, you can use the facilities if you need to. but if you are going to take a room, just let me know ahead of time so none of the security systems go off, guns blazing and all that. you can call my cell whenever you need to.
*tricity sat down next to derek in the bed.* you should just grab your own room in case of late night outtings. you might need to come here for medical attention and rest. instead of staying in the infirmary all night or driving home in the middle of the night, you can just plop in your bed in YOUR room. it's really not a problem. you won't have to share with anyone. the kids are a joy, they won't bother you much. so...how bout it?
*tricity folded her arms across her chest and watched the doc. he raised his hands above derek and the golden glow of his healing ability began. the flash of the battle ensued in his mind and the doc jerked a bit at the ribs derek had mentioned were cracked in the fight. one of the cons of the doctors abilities was he felt the pain the people felt when they were injured. after a moment, the doctor had nearly cleared derek's face of any bruising and his ribs were on their way to being healed very soon. the doctor put his arms down and looked at derek.* docprof: "how are you feeling?" any better?? *tricity asked, looking him over.* your face is a hundred percent better now, derek.
docprof: "not a problem. just sit here please." *the doctor showed him to an empty bed.* docprof: "i'll need you to lie back." uh, dont worry. it doesnt hurt or anything... *tricity said to reassure him.*
*tricity and derek made it upstairs, dodging a few kids on the way. when she opened the door, the docprof was reading a newspaper at the desk and looked up at them through his glasses.* docprof: "hello again derek. i see youve been in a scuffle as of late?"
*tricity sighed yet again, nodding at the doctor. he didnt argue her leaving the room as he was on the phone making arrangements for chaos and gorgon to be moved. her heart hurt very much for all that was happening. she hurt for orion mostly because he was losing his closest friends from a long time ago, but it angered her so that he let these dangerous men into the mansion. this anger was one of the reasons she wanted to be left alone. they didnt need to fight about last night. emotions were too overwhelming for that. she left the infirmary quietly, making her way down the hall while classes were still going on, hoping she wouldnt run into anyone.*
*she kneeled down on the floor in front of him, lifting his head.* it'll be ok...i'm going to my room to lay down. i want to just be alone for a couple hours, is that ok?
but you said we could...a name shouldnt make someone explode the way he did! you know, my faith in your friends is falling, ri. and what of him? *she asked referring to chaos as he lay in bed, unconsciou.
*tricity jumped from the bed and ran toward them, pushing her way between them.* FINE, then! *she said facing ire.* get you crap and get out... *she then turned to orion.* let him go. he says he'll leave.
