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.

Regan smiled as she moved around the counter towards the fridge to see what was inside. “It wasn’t really like BOOM, fire explosions.” Regan said while throwing her arms in the air and mimicking an explosion with her clawed hands. “They were more like bursts of air pressure really. I’m sure they were handy for many things.”
Laughing softly as Tses enjoyed the cookie and asked for what else there was to eat, Regan opened the fridge. She looked around inside, shuffling plates and jars around. Poking her head back around the door she smiled. “Well it looks like there is some leftover bacon mac and cheese, lots of stuff to make sandwiches with, and some salads. If you don’t feel like trying any of these things, we could always make something else. I’m a pretty good cook.”
Regan chuckled at Serena’s comment. So far everyone that Regan had met at the mansion had been nice people. There was yet to be a person she didn’t like. “I think that you’ll be alright, so far everyone here has been great. Haven’t met a mean person as of yet.”
Smiling, Regan gave Serena a nod before walking over to the work table and putting up a few of the damaged plants. “Well we can start by trimming up the damaged bits off of these plants.” She smiled and motioned for Serena to come over and handed her a pair of trimmers. Taking a damaged leaf in her clawed hand she showed Serena how to carefully trim it away without damaging the plant even more. “A damaged leaf or flower is like a hangnail. It hurts the plant, weakens it, once we trim it away, the plant can heal and continue growing.”

Regan smiled at Tses as she mentioned how she’d like a tail because all she did was glow. Regan laughed and looked at her. “You do a lot more than just glow, though your glowing still reminds me of fireflies.” She chuckled softly and continued. “You were able to make little explosions with your powers. I know because you threw some at me. It’s forgiven now so don’t feel bad about it ok?”
It wasn’t long before the pair were down the stairs and turning into the hall that took them to the kitchen. Regan let Tses enter first. The kitchen was a massive place dedicated to food. An enormous fridge was in the center of the countered area. There was a large stove and hanging baskets of fruits and veggies. “Well what do you think? I’m sure we’ll find you something that you’ll like in here. Oh look, someone made cookies!” Regan walked in and headed towards the plate of cookies that had been left on the counter. “Looks like they are chocolate chip cookies. Want to try one to see if you like chocolate chip cookies?”

Regan frowned herself as Tses spoke. She really felt so badly for her current situation. She wished that she could just make it all better. “Well I can tell you if you really want me to. But I’m not sure you will like what you hear to be honest. You are quite different now then you were when I met you the last time. But I won’t lie to you, I promise you that.” She smiled at her softly before she walked into the washroom.
Regan paced a little as she waited. Her enhanced hearing allowed her to hear Tses moving wround in the washroom. If she heard a thud, or stopped hearing movement all together she would bust down the door and see what was wrong.
Just then Tses came out of the washroom and was grinning. She showed Regan her arms. She had white scars along them that did oddly look like stripes and it made Regan smile back at Tses. She wondered what had happened to her, what had caused her scars, but asking her about them was rather pointless. “That’s pretty neat, now we just have to get you some ears and a tail and we’ll match.” Regan laughed and opened up her door to lead Tses to the kitchen. At this point Regan was starving, she didn’t know when the last time Tses had eaten so she made a point of making that their next destination.

Regan reached the room first, but as she turned to face Tses, she saw that Tses was hanging onto the wall and looking a little faint. She ran back to her and placed an arm around her waist and helped keep her upright while minding her broken arm. She hoped that she would start feeling better soon, though she hoped that she wouldn’t turn back into that mean Tses that wanted nothing more than to make a tiger skin rug out of her.
Regan smiled back softly and slowly started leading Tses back towards her room. “Hopefully it will all come back to you eventually, just have to give it time I suppose. No sense in making yourself sick or causing yourself to fall over.” She smiled and continued. “I did know you somewhat, we weren’t friends or anything like that.” She didn’t want to swamp Tses with all of the details right off the get go, but she wasn’t going to lie to her either.
Helping Tses enter the room, Regan sat her down on her bed and went over to her closet to rummage around for some clothes. She pulled out a pair of clean jeans and a T-shirt that she had tucked away. It was bright green, but it was all she had and she didn’t think Tses would want to wear a tank top. She handed them to Tses and pointed her towards the washroom. “You can change in there. There are face cloths and towels in the cabinet by the sink if you want to freshen up. Soaps are in that cabinet as well.”

Regan couldn’t help but chuckle as Tses went on a little rant of words, asking questions and making statements. She shook her head as they kept walking towards her room. “You are only a little shorter than me so my clothes should fit you well enough. Not to worry about my tail, I wear clothes that fit under the base of it so there won’t be any holes in the pants.” She giggled softly, she was actually liking this Tses, she was rather cute. “It’s fine, I know you didn’t mean it in a rude manner. I’m used to people being a little curious about me and my extra appendage.” she said giving her tail a playful flick.
They were almost to her room when Tses continued to talk about how much she liked Regan’s fur. Regan turned and smiled at her, also noting the fascinated look and smile on Tses face. “Why thank you. It’s such an odd coloring, but I quite like it really. Though being a cat is something I don’t like as much. I think I would appreciate my fur a lot more if it were attached to someone else.” She chuckled softly and shrugged her shoulders. She hated what she was, always had, and most likely always would, but it was just something she’d have to accept. She may look like a monster, have a monster inside her head, but the real Regan was just a nice person wanting to help the world, and right now helping Tses was her goal.

Regan smiled as Tses got up and looked slightly relieved. She walked with her through the gates and towards the front doors of the mansion. “Maybe you will, but even if you don’t, the kitchen here is stocked with pretty much everything that is edible. We are bound to find something that you’ll like.” She opened the door the mansion and let Tses walk in first and take in the majesty that was the mansion’s foyer.
After giving Tses a few minutes to adjust and take in the mansion. Regan grabbed her hand with her furry clawed one, and gently pulled her towards the stairs. “My rooms up on the second floor, I have a roommate but she’d not in right now. We can get you a change of clothes and you can freshen up in the washroom before we head down to the kitchen for a bite to eat.”

Regan watched as Tses picked up the paper bag and showed it to her. She mentioned a doctor and some injuries. Something must have happened to Tses and landed her in the hospital. That would explain the smell of the medical grade cleaners that Regan kept smelling. Listening to Tses story, Regan sighed and shook her head. What the heck had happened to her?
As Tses started crying and her thoughts jumped all over the place, Regan opened up the gates and came out to sit on the grass next to Tses. She placed a comforting arm around her and pulled her close. “Shhhh, Tses, shhhhhh. It’s ok, you came to the right place. I know who you are, well who you were anyways, and I told you then that I would help you if you needed it.” Regan sighed again, she couldn’t believe she was going to do this, but she was. Something was wrong with Tses and right now Regan was the only person she had. “My name is Regan. You are Tses. This is the mansion where mutants come to live and learn. How about we go inside? I think I have some clothes that you can borrow. We can get you cleaned up, get you something to eat, and get some of those medications into you so you can start feeling better.” Regan wasn’t about to mention to Tses how much Tses hated her and for reason she didn’t really know. Best to leave that part out until she could get Tses back on her feet and her head on straight, maybe Tses would even appreciate all this once her mind was her own again.

“No, I’m not mocking you. I’m just a little out of it by the sudden wake up.” Regan felt slightly bad now for the slightly mocking tone she may have given off. She didn’t intend for it to come out in a rude fashion, but she was still on edge from getting spooked so badly. “I’m sorry if that came out rudely.” Her words were sincere and she smiled softly to try and ease the tension a little.
As the woman asked why she wanted to sleep, Regan couldn’t help but tilt her head to the side, she was a cat and what do cats like to do? Nap of course! She decided to just answer the many questions. “Well you see, at this time of the day the sun comes through the windows quite nicely and I like curling up for a nap in a nice warm sunbeam. As for why I would want to sleep, I’m a cat and cats enjoy a nice nap when they have nothing to do. I’m not a student here so no homework to do. I’m the gardener here at the mansion and I finished my work this morning. Why not enjoy a relaxing snooze in the afternoon?”

It was a pleasant day out and Regan had wanted something fun to do outdoors. She had the day off from the shop and the green house so she decided that she’d head out into the deeper areas of the woods and do a little hunting, maybe try catching some fish in the stream.
Packing up her green bikini and a towel in her bag, as well as clean clothes and some soap, Regan headed out of the mansion and out into the woods.
After running for a while, Regan found a decent spot by the river to leave her things while she was hunting or fishing. Deciding that fishing was looking like more fun right now then chasing down a deer, Regan stripped down and got into her green bikini.
Stepping into the cold water made a shiver run up Regan’s spine, but her fur would keep her warm. She waded out into the water and watched the waters flow by, watching closely for the movement of any fish. She was so intently focused on the water that’s she didn’t hear the sound of someone approaching.

Regan blinked and tilted her head to the side as Tses appeared to be utterly confused. She raised her brow and looked at Tses with a firm stare. “You’re kidding? Are you on ‘the drugs’?” Regan asked with utter confusion in her voice. Her brow was still slightly furrowed as she spoke. “Seriously what are you doing here, you hate us ‘mansionnites’. You know with our good will and rule following.”
Regan studied Tses and instead of her usual guarded and ready to fight posture, she looked like she had seen a ghost. There was something very different about Tses. Either she was high on something or something had happened to her. Or worse, she was playing head games in order to get into the mansion grounds and cause some trouble. Either way it went, Regan was on her guard and watched Tses closely. If she needed help, she would help her, that was just the way Regan was.

It was a fairly nice day and Regan had decided to try and get a little more work done in the green house to get things tidied up some more so more repairs could be completed. She managed to get a few things organized and in their proper place, when her stomach let out a familiar growl. It was already time for something to eat, so she left the green house, locking it up, and headed towards the front doors.
On her way back to the mansion, Regan noticed a blond haired person slumped in a ball on the other side of the large iron gates. Curious, Regan walked over to the gates and took a quick sniff of the air. The scent of medical grade cleaners mixed with the crisp scent that was Tses, made Regan growl and storm off towards the gate.
“What the hell are you doing here Tses? Come to egg the mansion, or spray paint the cars? Oh I know, you must be here to pick another fight with me, am I right?” Regan growled and bared her fangs at Tses. Regan may have walked away from the last fight, but she was not going to let Tses ruin her home, she was on Regan’s territory and she wasn’t about to back down this time around.

Regan’s purring continued as she finished hugging Serena and pulled away to look her in the face. She started to talk about starting school and she smiled a fanged grin. “Well that’s too bad about the mix up. Are you getting excited to start at least? I always enjoyed class time with my ‘Father’.” She said with a soft sigh, she sure did miss him.
A small laugh escaped her maw as Serena made a playful comment about the green house and offered a hand. “Yeah well this handy work was not all my fault. Had a young mutant sneak in one night and well, we shared some of our powers with one another.” She gave a slight chuckle. “I’ll welcome the help for sure, it’s going to be a big job getting this place back together.”
Regan stepped away from Serena to get her an apron so her nice outfit wouldn’t get ruined by the dirt. “Here, you should put this on so you don’t ruin your shirt. By the way I love that color on you, it really brings out the color of your eyes.”

Serena’s words filled Regan’s heart with some much needed joy. Things had been rather crazy lately and she just needed some girl time with one of her friends, but with Butterfly gone for now, and Serena being so busy, she amused herself with her plants. That was when her train of thought was interrupted with a warm hug.
Regan hugged Serena back tightly and started to purr. “It’s so good to see you Serena. I’ve missed you! Things have been so crazy lately, all I want is some good time spent with a good friend. How are you doing?”
Regan was wearing one of her classic green tank tops and a pair of blue jeans under her apron. She was so content hugging Serena, to feel some closeness to someone, someone who liked her and didn’t want to hurt her, emotionally or physically for a change.
