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 was surely going to make DocProf mad by getting herself all burned up again. Hadn’t she learned her lesson from the last time? The sun and herself don’t mix very well, and here she was outside of all places with the sun rising screaming bloody murder.
Bailey’s voice. She could hear him, he was close by. The warmth of the sunlight suddenly stopped and the morning air made her skin feel cool again. Did the sun suddenly turn off, or had it gone behind a cloud? Victoria opened her eyes slowly to see Bailey standing between her and the ball of fire. She clung to his shirt and pulled herself close to him. “Please don’t let me burn! Please Bailey!! Hide me from the sun! Get me back inside please?!”
I'd love to play with AV Victoria. If you're looking for someone to get into trouble with, I can offer AV Darkshift. She's an emotionally unstable mutant with a penchant for violence who lives on the streets.
If you're looking for someone to get into trouble against I can offer AV Amber. She's a hippy, pacafist, mutant rights activist.
I wouldn't mind getting into some trouble with AV Darkshift. Do you have any ideas you'd like to play out?

His words reached her ears and immediately she felt terrible for him. She didn’t mean for him to think he had done something. Oh Bailey, why do you have to be so nice?
Stopping and turning back to face him she didn’t know if it was the right thing or the smart thing to do, but she felt she had to do it. She smiled at him. “You didn’t do anything Bailey. Nothing is wrong with you. I enjoy spending time with you and I’ve had a great time.” She paused and glanced towards the ever-brightening sunrise. She was running out of time and fast.
The clouds in the sky were now the timer as they began as a beautiful rosy red before transitioning to a fiery orange. “I just really have to go right now. It’s hard to explain, but I promise I will sometime.” A bright yellowish hue covered the clouds as a final warning just as the first rays of sunlight streaked through the city.
She quickly moved closer to him. “I really like you and I’ll explain everything later. Please trust me.”
A warm sensation started spreading over the left side of her face. Why was it only one side? If she was blushing shouldn’t she feel warmth on both sides? Victoria placed her hand on her cheek and now her hand felt warm. Dread set in as she turned and looked right into the beam of sunlight. Instantly she closed her eyes and screamed at the top of her lungs while covering her face.”
From the moment Bailey had asked Victoria about actually, seriously forming a band she couldn’t stop her excitement. Naturally she flashed back to their conversation when they first met at his ice cream shop, but that was just fun talk and this was a real idea for them. She absolutely agreed to be part of it and looked forward to getting things started.
Now they were having auditions and Victoria was still feeling like it was all a dream. There were people showing up to try out for their band and she was geeking out! She naturally kept time with the music when it played and listened to each person’s talents. She could pick out if someone was out of tune singing or playing instruments. Thanks to all the time her mother had spent teaching the girl about music she was able to separate each performer to evaluate them.
Even the bad ones were oddly fun for her to listen to, but that didn’t stop her ears from being grateful when some auditions would stop. She’s just smile and nod at the people for their time and rub her ears once they left.
Bailey’s excitement was mirrored by Victoria’s when one of the next performers had a violin to play. “This could be interesting!” She couldn’t wait to hear how the instrument was going to be utilized.
She listened to the man introduce himself and smiled hearing his accent. It was always a joy for her to hear other accents. Their speech was, for lack of a better term, people music. She loved it!
Victoria wrote down the new performers names and nodded to Artair. “Of course you all can have a little time to warm up. We’d like you all at your best. “
A genuine smile spread over Victoria’s face upon Bailey’s entrance and proclamation. She followed him with her ruby red eyes as he placed the bowl in front of her and seated himself. “Aitah Bailey…umm thank you.”, she said with a smile and nod as she snagged a chip.
She really liked him. He was nice and fun to talk with. He seemed to have an uplifting presence about him. It was reassuring and gentle, and it made Victoria feel very relaxed. He was also very respectful and thoughtful. He was an all-round good guy, judging from the time Victoria has spent with him so far.
“I don’t mind playing games or listening to music or both.”, she giggled.
Victoria hadn’t really played many video games back home or since coming to America. This meant Bailey had to help her along most of the time, but on occasion she would play helpless after knowing how to do something and use the time he was distracted to score more points. It was all in fun and made her laugh.
Time flies when you’re having fun. Victoria happened to glance at the clock and immediately got up from the bean bag. “I’m sorry Bailey. I have to go! I had fun, but I really need to leave now!” The girl rushed for the front door as if she was going to be in serious trouble for being late.
Individual: All the same except this Victoria has black hair and chooses to wear t-shirts and jeans or shorts instead of dresses. She’s also 1 year older.
Personality: Her toughness is reflected in her personality. She isn’t afraid to tell someone off or that they’re wrong. This developed rather quickly when she arrived in New York City as most of the people she crossed paths with would rather push her out of the way or tell her off than give the time of night. Having a mutation to back up one’s talk is a definite plus. There is only one person she cares about and that’s her adopted mom/big sister Alice.

Job or part time job and description: None
Fears/ phobias/ concerns: Unchanged

Strength: Very strong. Roughly that of a defensive linebacker football player. Speed: Normal speed for a girl her age and build. Reflexes: Normal. Stamina: Credited to her mutation she has a higher stamina level Flexibility: Average

Pros for fighting style: Extremely resilient to physical punishment.
Cons for fighting style: No real training.
Faction Allegiance
Unaffiliated
History of Your Character: Mostly the same except her father sent her off because she was becoming a blood thirsty monster. She was adopted by Alice and lives with her now.

They had continued walking and talking, two things Victoria was enjoying at the moment. Even when Bailey was apologizing again for something he had said. So, she quoted him. “Not your fault. Just the way things happened.” She smiled at him. “It was sort of lonely because I didn’t have siblings to play with, but I had my parents who gave me attention. Especially my mum. We did all kinds of things together. Most of it was music related, but she made it fun.”
“I think you’re lucky to have a big family. That’s more people who care for you and look after you.” She was genuinely happy for the boy. It was always nice when she found out good things about people. Though sometimes the people didn’t see it the way she might, but she enjoyed giving her perspective on things and it often times opened others eyes to something they might otherwise have missed.
“No, I don’t live on my own. I actually live in a wonderful school. It’s a great place and everyone is so nice there. I’ve made a few friends there.” She really did love the mansion and the people there. It was her home away from home. “Actually, I’m a little younger than you if you’re 17 or 18, but I’ll be 17 soon.”
She smiled at the boy again as they continued on to his house.

Doc’s tone was soothing and Victoria’s ears welcomed the sound as he spoke. It helped take her mind off the pain as well. She remained still while Doc performed his miracle of healing.
It seemed as if the pain and burns were gone in no time at all. One minute Victoria was listening to him talk and the next thing she knew she felt a hundred times better and wasn’t afraid to move. She sat up and examined herself while Doc explained what had happened. It was more of a definition than the girl had ever received other than the sun will burn her. Now she knew more about why it burns her even if it didn’t explain why it burns her so badly or so quickly. For now, the vampire was just thankful to not be hurting.
Turning her attention from Doc to Abby she smiled more and carefully reached over to give Abby a hug. “Aitah Abby. Thank you.” Pulling back so she could look at Abby face-to-face she continued. “I’m not mad or anything. I know it was an accident so please don’t worry ok? I still like you.” She smiled to the younger girl.
