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.

The flesh and bone on Darius's wing had sealed full up now and he stretched it as the bat winged mutant Skoliro landed next to him. "Good work with Miguel back there, but this ones a different story, Iris hows that arm of yours are you still going to be able to execute your plan" he said as he look over the roof of the shed to Iris who still looked in an aweful lot of pain.
"Iris!!" Darius yelled as one of the brutes tore at her arm. Seconds before one of them took a swip at his wings tearing the side of one. Darius's wings having better regeneration than the rest of his body start to heal but the several seconds that the wings was damaged made Darius lose control of his flight which lead to him coming to close to the ground for one of the brutes to attack Iris.
He felt horrible it was his fault but he had to put that behind him they had to get to the shed if they were to put Iris plan into action. They where close now and just before they got there Darius noticed a dark shape moving quickly "Skoliro" he said under his breath with a smirk He'll come in handy soon he thought to himself and he swooped down and dropped Iris lightly infront of the shed, he flew on to land ontop of it.
After watching Iris pull of her truley amazing stunt he took back up to the skies and flowed Iris's movements from above, it appeared that she was heading towards the waterworks of the camp.
Darius smirk slighlty and having seen Iris in action before he could see what she had planned. As Darius followed Iris he could but help noticed more of the Brutes showing up, they where all tailing Iris and Darius could see this wasn't going to turn out well if the caught up with her. Thinking quickly Darius swooped down to Iris leave and pulled up beside her "Need a lift" he said with a smile.
"Perfect" he yelled as the mud covered there foe. Now its my turn Darius said as he streached out his arms still circling the giant. His eyes began to glow there dangerous yellow and the air around Darius suddenly got hot and hard to breath in. "Here we go" he yelled as he brought his hands together with his palms facing the giant.
A bright light escaped through them both and using all his effort Darius concentrated the power down and aimed towards the giant. Darius circled him as a oversized blow drier as the mud began to set and harden. "Iris, it looks like its working I think its time we find better ground do you agree" he shouted as he stopped the beam of light and landed next to Iris.
The brute stood there staring Darius down, he had to try and delay him so how. "Iris" Darius yelled as he took off after and grabbed her by the arm. "We can take this guy trust me, all we got to do is put our heads together" he said as he scanned the area with his eyes looking for anything that would spring an idea into his mind. Just when it looked like the brute had enough of watching them flee it hit him. Darius pulled Iris close and whispered into her ear "Cover him with as much mud as you can trust me I've got an idea that could stall him long enough for us to get to better ground" he said as he took off the ground and began to circle around the red giants head.
The identity of the person inside of the whirling cloud still eluded Darius and in his frustration to see what was going on he completely forgot to be aware of his surrounds. In this time of blindness unknowen to Darius a red man beneth him had hurled a tree up towards him. Darius could almost see the mans face inside now "Glare!!" he yelled as he saw him though a gap in the cloud, what was one of the schools teachers doing so far out here he thought to himself when his thoughts were suddemly interupted as his senses went into over drive, his ears picked a rushing sound behind and as he spun around the tree that the red man threw was rushed up to greet him. With only a few seconds before the tree would collide with him Darius opened his eyes which released the force of the sun though a devasting eye beam that blew the tree apart into splinters.
This evasion had its cost though, the splinters hit Darius piercing his skin all over his body. Blood trickled down from tiny wounds all over his body. Darius winced as he spread both his arms and his wings out wide to gain more of his essential energy from the sun. As he gathered more energy the splinters slowly pushed themselves out and fell back down to the earth as Darius's wounds close up. "Thats better, now wheres the culprit" Darius said out loud, he scanned the ground looking for the red man and to his suprise he could see at least three of them. Its never easy is it Darius thought to himself as he tried to pick out which one to combat.
He thought he had found the one who assaulted him when he caught a glimpse of a fourth in the corner of his eye and to his suprise Iris was there aswell, I've got to help her out first he thought to himself as he sped down at a stunning speed. The man was alot bigger than Darius first thought and he knew that he was stronger than himself, it looked like him and Iris would have to work on him together. "Iris whos your friend haven't had the pleasure of meeting him yet" He said to Iris as he landed next to her and looking into the devils eyes.
The swirlling black abyss that was Skoliro's bats continued to move around the two as they battled inside. Darius was completely unaware of any other battle happening in the area, he was under the impression that there was only the three of them there that is why when he looked to the skys he was alarmed to see a large swirlling cloud moving through the sky with rain spitting from it.
This definately aint a normal occurance, its got to be a mutant, Skoliro seems to have everything under control for now I've got to check this out he thought to himself. Darius looked one more time at the mass of bats before streaching his wings out and with one powerfully effortless flap of his wings he was level with the swirling cloud. After watching for awhile Darius could swear he saw a dark silhouette in the middle of it all. He began to circle it to investgate futher.
To Darius's amazment before his kick could land it was blocked off by a huge dome of what seemed to be bats. He stopped and thought to himself about how there was no way this could have been a natural occurance but before he could ponder futher he saw the bat mutant Skoliro glide past and enter the dome. He had no doubt that Skoliro was the cause of this so Darius just stood backwards as the dome rotated whilst he thought of the battle inside.
Whilst flying past Miguel Darius judge the distance to him wrong and ended up getting to close Miguel who took the opportunity and grabbed Darius's wing which drove him down towards the ground. He landed badly and tore a hole in his jeans which made a graze on his knee. Darius could see that Miguel just hovering above him after throwing him down. Darius leapt back up onto his feet "Nice trick Mig" he shouted throwing a kick in Miguels direction spinning to face him.
"Ok enough waiting Miguel lets finish this" Darius yelled as his energy was now fully restored, he took off the ground whirling up some of the sand left Miguels earlier attack when he stopped suddenly "Skoliro" he yelled as his winged friend flew by Miguel "You can give me a hand here when ever the hell you want you know" he shouted smiling at his new friend as he took off speeding for Miguel and pulled back his arm readying to throw a whopping punch.
{OOC: Oh yeah I guess you would but it would be cool if you only could if you mutant power was higher than their mentality or something I think that would be pretty neat}
Darius got up from the aerial manuver he just pulled off pushing some of Miguels rocks that had landed on him after it. He got back to his feet and clicked his neck when Miguel sent a wall of sand flying towards him. Darius grinned slightly as he streached his wings back behind him. The wall of sand was moving quickly around him and Darius had to move fast so he threw his wings forward with all he force which blew a mass of the sand away. Darius laughed slightly to himself "So I'm just a large chicken to you am I" he yelled at Miguel who he could just see through the sand. He thought he was safe when all of a sudden the sand that he blew back quickly headed towards him and combined with more of it which covered Darius completely.
All that could be seen of Darius was a giant pile of sand. He managed to thrust his arm through and pull himself out. "Close one could have suffercated there" he said shaking himself and his wings off walking away from the pile. He stood there, now eying Miguel up who was sitting in a near by tree and began to wait for him to make the next move. I was all a roux really, Darius just needed time to get back the energy from his first aerial feat.
Miguel?? What the hell is going on here. Darius felt a huge amount of anger surge up inside of him from Miguel's taunts. What the heck can I do, all that rubble stops me from getting anywhere near him he thought as bush flew up towards him which Darius slammed off with his forearm. The branchs actually cut his arm but as he looked down it had already began sealing. Lets see him slow this one down he thought as he speed upwards.
He had to squint as the wind was passing so fast even he was having trouble seeing. Darius looked down from where he came and Camp David was quickly becoming smaller and smaller. He was having trouble breathing now and the air temperature had dropped tremendosly. "Here we go" Darius said as he arched his back and flew back round decending on The Camp. He found his mark and his speed kept growing more and more before he had reach maximum vilocity and Camp David was get closer and closer until he could see that smirk on Miguel's face again. "You ready for this" he yelled as he had almost reached Miguel.
Alarmed at what Eaen was doing Darius yelled at him "Eaen what the hell is this have you gone mad" he said as Eaen sent a large number of rocks up towards him and began to spin them around him. "Don't do this Eaen I'm not your enemy" He yelled but it was no use he saw a smirk on Eaens face as the rocks closed in on him. Darius quickly inveloped himself in his wings as the rocks pelted against them.
What the hell is he doing Darius thought as the barrage of rocks stopped. He blew his wings open throwing off a few more flying rocks, he flew downwards towards Eaen but was blown back by the force that the spinning rocks were making. Darius thought to himself about what the consqensis of attacking Eaen might be. Hes gonna seriously hurt someone I've got to try stop him he thought as he flew up higher and spread his arms and wings out gathering the energy of the sun. "Last chance Eaen" Darius yelled as his eyes began to glow. There was no response from Eaen other than a few more rocks being fired in Darius's direction. "Thats it then" he yelled releasing all the energy he just gathered through his eyes right down through the rocks that had just been throwen and towards Eaens rock storm.
