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.

EVELYN SUMMERS aka HOLMES
"Sherlock Holmes had once said: “A man’s brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose.” But Sherlock Holmes, as much as she was compared to him, was not Evelyn Summers, and she did not have this luxury."
HISTORY
Evelyn Summers was born and raised in New York, with her well-to-do family keeping their abnormally observant daughter out of the public eye. With a rather know-it-all demeanor, the Summers denied her identity as a mutant, deciding her perception could be blamed on any number of 'normal' human psychological problems. Evelyn kept to herself, struggling to get along with children her age, and when she was thirteen she developed her secondary mutation, and it's unique side-effect; both gifted and cursed to never forget, she would relieve her memories in her sleep. While her family could deny what was happening, Evelyn could not, and when she reached adulthood she got her own place, and tried to find some form of normalcy. It worked, for the most part, although having her bodyguard Jensen in tow caused several problems with her image of independence.
By the time Evelyn was 24, her unnatural curiosity created a rather unusual habit of getting into danger. She got herself attacked by rampant monsters in the city; she got kidnapped by a mutant from the Sanctuary; she took on armed robbers with a broom...unsuccessfully, one might add. Evelyn lacked the sense of danger necessary for survival in the world of mutants, and this intelligent woman quickly showed a knack for attracting trouble. Thankfully, she has developed friends more than willing to get her out of it.
POWERS
Evelyn Summers Hyper awareness; perfect memory recall and ability to relive past experiences when she sleeps.
POSTS TO SEE:
Elementary. - Evelyn finds her attention drawn by a man in a coffee shop whose 'echos' reveal unsavory information. Her analysis gives her information that is disturbing.
A Different Kind of Art - Evelyn is knocked over by a stranger, before a trail of events leads to a late night burglary and a rather foolish attempt by Evelyn to prevent it.
Icing on the Cookies - Cookie monster. Big bird, deadly monsters. You can read from there.
