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.

As Tses went down, hurt her arm, and yelped out in pain, along with a swear word, Regan jumped out of her chair and leapt over the counter in one fluid movement. Landing on her hands and feet on the other side, she quickly helped Tses up and leaned her against the counter. “It’s fine, I’m sure I have a few colorful words in my vocabulary too.” She said with a soft smile.
Nodding her head at Tses mention of her medications, Regan lead Tses around the counter to a chair and sat her down. “What do the instructions say on the bag for taking them?” She asked as she headed around the counter again to get Tses a glass of water so she could take her pills. “It should be on the label there.” She continued, looking over her shoulder and nudging her head towards the paper bag.
Regan returned Serena’s smile and giggled. She was glad that someone noticed how much she loved plants and took pride in her work. She trimmed another section of the damaged plant away and turned the plant to inspect for further damage. “I was always interested in plants once I moved here with my “Father”. I read so many books on plants that he eventually had a small green house built for me. I spent hours in there taking care of the plants, sure I had a few failures along the way, but I learned and got better. Now I know enough to take care of almost any plant.” She grinned at Serena and placed the trimmed plant over in a sunny area of the green house before picking up another damaged one from her pile on the floor.
“I think if you set your mind on something, you can learn to do anything. That was something “Father” used to tell me. He always believed that I could do anything I wanted to, I just had to set my mind to it.” She smirked and went back to trimming the plant she had in front of her, watching closely out of the corner of her eye to make sure that Serena was getting the hang of it as well.
“Alright, well once we clean up after lunch we can make up a batch of cupcakes together!” Regan giggled and finished putting her sandwich together, unknowing of the bitten tomato in it. She watched Tses put her sandwich together and giggled through a clawed hand. She made a valid attempt to put it together so Regan didn’t say a word about it. “Looks great Tses.” She then piled some of the mac and cheese on her plate next to her bun.
Walking around the counter to the other side, she pulled out a chair and sat down. “So what kind of cupcakes should we make? Chocolate? Vanillia? Oh maybe marble? I think we have red velvet too.” Regan smiled and let Tses mull it over as she picked up her sandwich and licked her lips just before taking a big bite out of it and the bitten tomato that lurked inside. “Mmmm this is delicious!”
Regan’s eyes widened for a moment at his compliment before becoming rather bashful. She was flattered by it and it made her a little giggly. She had never heard so many compliments as she had been hearing since she moved into the mansion. She wasn’t quite sure what to say, so she just squeaked out a “Thank you.”
Regan’s ears flicked forward as she listened to Ty talk about his mutation. She smiled and clapped her clawed hands together and bounced slightly. “Oh that sounds like such a neat power! I wish I could do something like that! I would go to the museums and touch all of that history! Think of the things you would learn Ty! I love to learn new things!” She squealed a little and bounced some more before Ty changed the subject to Butterfly’s move to the mansion. “She will be in good hands Ty, I promise you that! The mansion is a great place to live and she’ll be rooming with me if that helps ease your mind a little bit.”
With a chuckle, Regan took out the bowl of left over bacon mac and cheese, butter, a bowl of chicken salad, a bowl of egg salad, package of mixed lunch meats, some cheese, and lettuce. She placed everything on the counter before going to the bread box and pulling out a loaf of bread and some buns so Tses had some options. Grabbing a cutting board and a knife, Regan grabbed a tomato and started to slice it up. “So what do you want to try first? There are lots of options here for you to choose from. Once we have our sandwiches organized I’ll pop the leftovers into the microwave.” Finishing up slicing the tomato, Regan turned around and grabbed some plates out of the cupboard and a few forks and knives out of the drawer and placed them on the counter in front of Tses.
Turning back around, Regan pulled the cellophane off of the leftovers bowl and popped it in the microwave. Pressing a few buttons, it hummed to life and she turned back to face Tses and make herself an egg salad sandwich on a bun. After buttering the bun and spreading some egg salad on it, she added a slice of cheese, some tomato slices and a bit of lettuce. She smiled over at Tses as she worked. “We sure can make some cupcakes after, I’m not much for baking from scratch but I know there is some cake mixes in the pantry and some of that store bought icing in the fridge. It’s been a long time since I’ve baked with someone.” Thoughts of her “Father” flooded her mind, the afternoons they had spent doing so many fun things together. She smiled over at Tses as she finished putting her bun together. “This will be fun I think.”
