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.

Nodding in acknowledgement of Derek’s reply, Victoria tried to help his confidence. “I know the teachers and probably some of the older students would be willing to help you understand how it works and what you can do with your mutation. They’re pretty good about that here. Or so I’ve heard from other students.” She spoke with a smile.
“Umm, it all depends on who’s awake at night I suppose. I don’t have any regular night time friends though.”

Victoria was glad she could make…umm…she didn’t know his name. She forgot to introduce herself as well. How could she forget that? She liked learning people’s names in case she ever saw them at night again.
Straightening herself up more she made a proper introduction. “I’m sorry, I forgot to do this first. I’m Victoria and it’s very nice to meet you.” She said with a pleasant smile. “May I ask your name?” That was better. She nodded slightly to herself.
“So you just tell the animals how to move or what to do, but they don’t talk?” If the animals talked back that would be more fun, she thought so anyway. “If you’re going to try your mutation on someone with animal traits you might wanna ask if it’s ok first. Just to make sure they don’t get mad or freaked out when their tail or wing starts moving on its own. If it works that is.” Suddenly the girl was feeling kind of scientific about it all even though it wasn’t even about her.
His reply to her mutation question sort of made her feel like it might of made him feel sad. “It’s not your fault. I was born with it, so I’m used to it now.” She perked up and smiled. “That’s why I’m up talking with you now!”

Giving a smile of both acceptance and acknowledgement, Victoria stepped closer and sat at the table. She giggled softly at the confused look from the boy, and watched him look his arms over. “It’s nice to meet you too Andy. I was just kidding about making sure you got enough ice cream.” She gave him another reassuring grin.
Before she could direct a question to the lady at the table, another girl popped into the kitchen. She seemed very cheerful and more full of energy than Andy appeared to be. “Hello! We’re having ice cream. There isn’t much left, but you can have some if you want.” As Victoria spoke she watched the little bird on the girl’s shoulder fidget to keep balance. “That’s a cute bird you have.”
Another girl entered the kitchen. This one was more outspoken than anyone else Victoria had met this night, but she must’ve had lots on her mind. She seemed pleasant enough as she greeted everyone. So, Victoria introduced herself to both of the new arrivals. “Nice to meet you both. I’m Victoria.” She gave a big pearly white smile. More people to interact with! She continued on but now directed to Allegra. “Oh! You could’ve said hi if you had wanted to before now. It would’ve been ok.”
Grinning from ear to ear she followed the woman’s gesture and continued into the kitchen. An ice cream break she said. The girl’s eyes located the box of ice cream and she nodded. Though she found it odd. “You both take a break from sleeping to eat ice cream?” That must be one of the stranger mutations she had heard of, and it only fueled her curiosity more. “Do you need ice cream to recharge or something?”
Looking to the boy she replied back to him. “Hiya!” He had a weird look on his face, but she wasn’t sure what it was. She noticed he kept looking at her, but he kind of seemed preoccupied as well. “Are you getting enough ice cream?” Maybe he hadn’t had enough yet to feel better?
His acknowledgement of her statement made her grin and nod. She pretty much felt everyone living in the mansion had a similar view. Everyone got along pretty well, as far as she knew, and worked together for the betterment of everyone else. She could only imagine how things were during the day time with more people interacting with one another. The thought was both exciting and intriguing.
“Wow! That sounds really cool! So, you’re like Dr. Doolittle? At least the talking with animals part anyway.” She immediately wondered what conversations with animals would be like. Was it how they portrayed the in the movies? Why not ask? “Do the animals talk like in the movies? Are they all like, hey how’s it going?” She couldn’t help but giggle at the thought of a cat saying such a thing.
Victoria’s face took on a puzzled expression as she thought more on the idea. “Does it work on people who have animal traits?”
His question was one she was used to answering already. "I'm allergic to the sun. We don't mix very well."

Yet another night of wandering around the mansion, alone, bored and having virtually memorized every hallway and staircase, and yet Victoria was at it again. If they ever had a fire and people needed to get out quick she could tell everyone which way was the fastest based on where they were. Oh yes, she read all of those information plaques also.
She still loved being in the mansion because it was a place that felt comfortable and safe. The biggest problem was most people were up and about during the day time. A time she avoided and slept. Once in a while she would cross paths with someone she knew, and even more rare were the new arrivals or people she just hadn't met yet.
This time there were new voices coming from the kitchen area. A rush of excitement filled the girl as now she’d have people to interact with. She made her way to the kitchen door and stepped inside. Her ruby eyes were met with the sight of two new people. Even more excitement. “Hello! You guys can’t sleep?”

Smiling and nodding to his replies Victoria watched him for a moment more. He looked like he was enjoying what he was reading. She liked when people did things they enjoyed. It made her smile seeing others when they’re happy.
“Umm…yeah I guess you could say that.” Even if he was only up this late due to not being able to sleep, as a few others who Victoria had met, it was still nice talking with someone and not the walls. “I agree, but even if they aren’t like you, as long as everyone gets along that’s what matters most.” She smiled softly.
“Is there something about African animals that interests you specifically? I mean there are some pretty amazing animals there, that’s for sure. Like lions and cheetahs and elephants.” She had watched lots of animal documentaries when she lived with her parents. Those were some of the creatures she liked most.
