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.

*the lights flickered on and off as tricity shook with anger. the lights went out and they all were in darkness except for the light emitting from tricity's body.* YOU ARE SOOOOO UNBELIEVABLE! CHAOS IS NOT YOUR FRIEND!! AND IT'S NOT MY FAULT KAOS USED THOSE POWERS AGAINST ME!! I HAD NO CONTROL OF IT! IT WOULD BE LIKE YOU TO BRING UP SOMETHING SO IRRELEVANT TO THIS MORE IMPORTANT SITUATION...BUT FINE! WE CAN BRING IT THERE!! HOW ABOUT ALL THOSE TIMES YOU LEFT THE MANSION WITHOUT ANY KIND OF NOTICE, DOING GOD KNOWS WHAT AND WHERE!? LEAVING ME ALL ALONE AFTER SPENDING THE NIGHT!! HMMMMM?? HOW ABOUT THE VERY FIRST TIME WE WERE TOGETHER BEFORE I EVER CAME TO THE MANSION....AND YOU LEFT ME!! YOU LEFT ME!! AAARGH, GOD YOU ARE SO UNBELIEVABLE!! *there was a knock on the door.* WHAT?? *there was a tiny voice on the other side.* janie: "ms. tipper!! the lights went out in the house..." not now janie!! i'll fix it in a minute...go back downstairs!! *she turned back to orion, her body glowing very brightly now that a lot of the electricity from the house was flowing into her.* I HONESTLY DONT KNOW WHO YOU ARE RIGHT NOW!
*tricitys anger rose again and the lights flickered. the docprof sighed and turned around to tricity.* docprof: "delilah..." orion, have you honestly lost your mind?? *delilah said, cutting the doctor off.* what are the police supposed to do, sit back with a bag of popcorn and see who wins? there were hundreds of people on the street trying to get a closer look at the two of you playing games with the sentinels. it's their JOB to protect and serve, EVER HEAR THAT?!
oh stop making it like every cop is a fat bastard eating donuts all the time! they are just trying to protect people...and not all of them are against mutants and you know it. if there wasnt a mutant in central park, there wouldnt be any injuries or a dead cop, would there!? *she said, the light starting to flicker. the docprof looked up from his glasses at tricity while he worked on chaos.* docprof: "delilah...please." sorry... *the lights came back to their full brightness again.*
good... *she turned and walked over to the television, glaring at the TV. the television immediately came on, but the electricity in the room went out. the docprof and orion looked back at her and she glared back at them. tricity let out a deep, annoyed sigh and the lights, equipment, and machinary came back on in the room. the television was set very loudly so she could make sure orion wouldnt miss a single word. the docprof shook his head at them.* reporter: "...many police were hurt and one was killed in the incident at central park tonight. questions and speculations are rising again to the threat of mutants. some are saying, they were only threatened by the sentinel that tried to capture them, while others are saying sentinels are only dispatched to help mutants and not harm. several witnesses said the mutant causing the trouble was the same one who destroyed most of central park a year ago. we will be tuning into the president's speech in a few minutes." *tricity's arms were folded over her chest, her foot tapping in an annoyed fashion.*
*orion placed chaos down on the table as tricity went over to knock on the docprof's door. he came out and sighed at them while walking over to chaos.* docprof: "he'll be ok..." *tricity and orion backed away from the table. the docprof put his hands above chaos and the memory of central park went through his head. the golden glow died down as he finished the memory of what happened.* docprof: "you were very lucky..." yea...i know... *she said, avoiding orion's eyes.*
*Tricity took the cigarette pack and lighter from Kaine.* "Not only shouldn't you be smoking, now is not the best time for it. Plus, you can't smoke inside the mansion. Now, why would you ever do something like this??" *Her watch went off and she cursed under her breath.* "I have to go teach a class. Mike, let me know the updates." *She touched Kaine's shoulder and then said goodbye to them all before leaving the infirmary.*
*Tricity crossed her arms over her chest and went over to Kaine's bedside.* "What the hell were you thinking?!" *She started yelling, but the Doc took her wrist and shook his head. After exhaling, Tricity started again.* "I found you unconscious in your room after one of the students felt a bad aura from your room. Mike carried you here for the Doc to look you over." *Tricity grabbed the pill bottle from the side table and showed it to Kaine.* "Did you swallow these??"
*Tricity pushed open the door so Mike could bring Kaine inside. She pulled aside one of the curtains to let Mike put Kaine on an empty bed. Tricity wheeled about and saw Crystal sitting in a chair and the Docprof coming over.* doc: "What happened?" *She handed him the bottle.* "I think he overdosed on whatever these are..." *The Doc looked at the bottle unbelievably and then shook his head. He went next to Kaine and started checking vitals before placing his hands over Kaine's chest and relived the moments right before he swallowed the pills. Tricity went over to Crystal and knelt beside her to see how she was doing.*
*the weekend was over and tricity was feeling much better. she pushed the covers off of her, took her hospital type gown off, and put her regular clothing back on. after pushing the curtains back, she waved to the docprof and left the infirmary as he insisted she stay in bed. when she got to her room, she quickly showered, and got ready to teach for her morning class.*
bye hun! *she hung up the phone and for the first time in a while thought about draven and hydroa; wondering where they were. she sighed and scooted down under the covers again, feeling like a child as the docprof watched her.* I'M RESTING, ok?? *tricity said, half-smiling and closing her eyes again.*
*as if the doc heard del's request, he crossed his arms on his chest and nodded up and down.* damn psychic abilities...uh, well yea...maybe for a little while. i'll talk to you again real soon, ok? thank you so much for what you did a couple nights ago. really, i owe you my life.
AND no matter how many times you tell them to STOP, they continue on the same detructive path of ending up on the couch for the night! *tricity said, laughing, but having a small coughing fit.* ow! sorry bout that...
well..maybe not that young! but i have practiced on lots of baby cousins. so, do you know when you and siren will be moving back in? *she asked, taking a sip of water from a glass near the bedside table.*
