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.

She did have a point. It was funny when kids screamed, even more funny when adult men did. The latter usually didn’t do so until it was far too late for help however. At least that was from her experience. Things could be completely different when you’re about to be mauled by a wolf that looked to be made out of crystals.
“Well that sounds like more fun than doing nothing. Is that how you make your pets or is that what they eat?” Victoria looked a little closer at the wolf and the bird. They were rather pretty, and it amazed her how they acted like living creatures.
Looking back to the other girl Victoria took a closer look at her as well. She immediately caught flashes of reflected light bouncing off crystalline growths on her skin. Maybe the jewels were for her instead? Whatever they were for it sounded like more excitement than she was previously having. “I’m not afraid because I’m tough. So, after you get the jewels I’ll take the lady.” Victoria smiled sinisterly.

While getting closer to the person of Victoria’s interest, she began to catch glimpses or shiny bits on the girl. Some had a similar appearance as the bird, and the wolf she hadn’t seen previously. Strangely the bird and wolf looking creatures weren’t the same colors. Perhaps someone who could create such things could also make them any color as well. It sounded like a neat idea anyway.
Victoria eventually got plenty close enough to observe the other female in much better detail and clarity. She could see the people nearby alter their paths to avoid getting near the crystal creature creator. It was probably smart on their part to do so.
When a small girl and her mother crossed paths with miss sparkles and her pets, it allowed Victoria to get within a couple steps. “Little kids scare way too easily.” She stated in a rather plain tone. “I bet if you had yelled boo she would’ve screamed and maybe even wet herself.” Victoria nodded assuredly. “So, what are you up to?”

She was happy she didn’t startle the boy and was received with a nice welcome. “Hello.” She replied with a little grin. Her ruby eyes looked over the books that had been collected. It was an interesting gathering of reading.
Victoria returned her attention to the boy. “I’m doing fine. How are you?” Her hope was that he was ok also. Perhaps just busy reading or possibly studying. Maybe he had a test to take. She shook her head slightly to his last question. “I don’t sleep at night. I pretty much sleep during the day, and most nights are pretty quiet.” She tilted her head up slightly as if recalling fond memories as a smile spread over her lips. “Sometimes some of my friends are awake because they can’t sleep and then we keep each other company.”
Gesturing to the books she questioned him a little. “Are you studying? Do you have a test or an exam or something?”

Most of the nights in the mansion Victoria spent alone as the mansion was pretty quiet with everyone sleeping. On rare occasions, she might cross paths with someone who couldn’t sleep or maybe they were hungry for a late-night snack and then she would get to talk with them. She was starting to think tonight might be one of the many quiet nights though.
The blonde girl walked through the large building, in her light blue silk nightie, peeking in classrooms and wandering down hallways looking at the artwork or trying out random chairs. You know, just to see if any were actually comfortable. She found that only a couple were.
When she walked into the library she discovered she wasn’t the only one awake. A boy was reading through what looked to be a pile of books. She had never seen this boy before. She only felt it was her duty to welcome him if he was new, and if he wasn’t then he was still new to her. Win! Win!
She approached the boy from the opposite side of the table he was sitting at. Didn’t want to startle him if he was really focused on his reading. “Hello.”

Trailing for some time, the Vampiress continued to watch this new person and listen to her humming. It definitely wasn't a song she knew of. Maybe the person made up her own songs as Victoria had done before. Either way it wasn’t terrible at least.
Victoria wasn’t sure where this humming person was going but she had what looked like a crystal bird with her. That in itself was rather interesting. It even moved and screeched as if it were a real bird with feathers. This new person was gaining more and more of Victoria’s interest. Now to see what she was up to.
Victoria started closing the distance between herself and this new person.
The night still had a few hours before it became time to go inside, but there was a problem. Victoria was bored and wanted to do something fun. She wasn’t sure what would be fun, but being bored for hours didn’t sound enjoyable.
So, she walked the streets keeping an eye out for something to catch her attention. There were lots to see, different people doing various things from hanging out in front of stores to business people going to and from work. Most of them didn’t get more than a brief glance from the vampire.
She continued on until she heard someone singing. This caught her attention as most people didn’t sing out in the open even if it was off key. Victoria started moving in for a closer examination and to see what the person was doing.
