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.

"Orion wouldn't work for Whitmore on free will, I know." *Tricity said, sitting on the bed next to him.* "So, do you rememeber anything? Anything at all?" *She took his arm in her hands and looked the tattoo over.* "Oh shit..."
"Uh, yea about that...sorry I didn't tell you I was pregnant. I should've told you sooner. It's hard on my own and I haven't told many people because I feel a bit ashamed since my boyfriend is MIA. And don't worry about your bike, I took it back after I woke up." *She saw he was looking over his tattoo.* "The whole kiss thing is cool too. I feel kinda bad I didn't pull away sooner because of my situation and all. What's wrong with your tattoo? Did they give you that at the facility?"
*Tricity flung her arms around Kaine, happy to see him. She took his face in her hands and looked it over.* "Are you alright?? What happened? Do you have any idea where they took you?"
*Tricity walked through the hallways, holding her stomach as the baby began to kick. She smiled and stopped as several kids ran past. It was nice to feel that after such a grueling few days. Before she could even begin walking again, Johnathon nearly ran into her.* "What's wrong!?" *He put his finger up, signaling he needed a second to catch his breath. He leaned over to brace on his legs and then stood up dramatically to continue.* Johnathon: "Kaine's back." "WHAT!? WHERE?!" Johnathon: "He came back late late late last night. He said he was going to crash in his room and..." *Tricity quickly yanked Johnathon along with her to go to Kaine's room.* "Was he ok? Did you see him?" Johnathon: "Well yea I saw him. He looked a little beat up, but he just wanted to get some rest." *They both hurried upstairs and then Tricity told Johnathon to go back to the security station. She didn't even bother to knock as she turned the knob and pushed open the door.*
*tricity noticed a sense of awkward silence and her watch went off on schedule.* "I have to get downstairs to make sure the kids aren't destroying things. I'll...uh, see you downstairs?"
*tricity was passing through the hallway, taking the pen down from her hair to check off the many things she had to do on her list. she looked up for a second and continued walking, but then stopped after realizing it was mike.* "Hey, what's up? Visiting Daria?"
She took Tristan back from his new godfather and gave Mike and Daria kisses on the forehead. "All right you two. Be careful. If anything should happen, I'll let you know as soon as possible. Have fun!" She gave them a wave and closed the door behind her, heading for her room.
"I hope it doesn't come to any kind of invasion, but I don't know... Fade will have to be our eyes. Just wishing they would hurry back soon. They've been a while actually." She picked up her radio and called to Johnathon. "Hey, any word from the team yet?"
She could tell he was eating when he answered her back. "Negative. Think it's been about two hours now. Want me to radio them?"
"No, not yet. I don't want you to possibly ruin anything they may be doing. Just wait a little longer." Tricity put the radio down and looked back over at Mike and Daria. "Hope our intuitions are wrong."
"Yes, but I think we considered a bunch of vigilantes still. Not much of heroes in the media's eyes." Tricity leaned forward and remembered her conversation with Xavier. "Charles doesn't think very highly of Dorian either. I think he may have had a student at his school leave to head there, but kept a mind-track on him. I'm not really sure though..."
"There's a man named Dorian King who's been housing mutants, though I think there's something darker in his intentions. Possibly a group of mutants... well organized mutants... that are forming together for domination purposes," she explained, making quotes with her hands when saying 'domination purposes'. "Dominic, Raphael, and Fade went to check it out and I'm hoping they'll be back with some information."
Daria quirked an eyebrow. "Wha? Cali? Geez, the two of you don't sit still for more than five minutes. Well... When the hell are you coming back? We were planning on doing more work at the Sanctuary, especially since you two are back in commission."
Tricity was totally confused. "Someone was controlling Sapphire? Meaning the Church of Humanity? I'm about right tired of them... Think it's time we pay them a visit anyway... "
