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.

Cailyn was munching cake under the table like it was the normalast thing in the world. Suddenly someone was there and she wasnt paying attention. The woman scared the hell out of her. She jumped up and bounced from out under the table.
What was the woman going to do now that she caught her stealing cake. Was she going to jail, or worse. She froze, she was scared. She had a terrified look on her face. If she found out that she snuck in and stole stuff she was in trouble. She wanted to run but couldn't because her body didn't work. She swallowed and said: "I don't know." softly.
With a kick and a punch the woman named Leila showed that she was a formidale opponent to the 3 invaders. It was kind of like watching tv with a superhero coming to the resque and kicked the wind out of the badguys. She was about to cheer her on but decided not to seeing as bad men could probably go after her or something. Atleast that is how her logic went.
When the badguys left she was like wow looking at leila. She was good at fighting and knew what she was doing, the exact opposite of herself. This made her very shy but she admired what Leila was. Atleast she knew that she was a mutant as she got fish on her mind and body.... ow wait, dolphins are mammals. Not that she knew the differense. She remained seated at the table since she didn't know what to do. Running away would be silly and not nice, but staying could result into bad things if Leila would turn on her, if she would ever.
How has she been was a question that was never asked to her before. In fact she never met the same people twice in the labyrinth that was the sanctuary. She tilted her head a bit to the left. "Lost." She replied simply. She has been that for a while since she didn't know where she was or what she was doing though she didn't mind.
“ May, open it?”
"Uhu." She said as she nodded hard as if her head was about to fall of. It twisted her mask a bit and she had to correct it and thus the heavy breathing returned. She hoped he was happy with the book though she had no clue if he could read or not.
Well my internet provider failed to deliver my internet and my wireless network keeps falling out everywhere so my posting will be extreemly slow as of now.
And then the evil men arrived with their thoughts impure. They came and tried to rob the store or something like that seeing as they started to threaten people. Cailyn didn't know what to do, she was trying to get away from those people but seemingly they kept following her all the way.
"I'll be right back, okay?"
She saw the woman standing up and sneaking to the robbers. Was she a super hero of some sort who was going to take down the robbers. She heard the thoughts of the robbers harder then the thoughts of the others and one of them noticed Leila seemingly. "Look out!." She yelled , trying to take atention away from Leila and on to her. Not that it was a good idea but it was the best that she could come up with.
She was following the young man and his date through the crowd with her present tugged against her chest. She was glad she had her mask on. No voices from strange people tonight, atleast that was the idea. Suddenly they where standing in front of another man. He was tall and chatty. There was also the ghosty woman from the bookstore. Good for her that she recovered and was at the party. It took a moment to get used the to pointy eared fellow who assumgly was named Kaz. She had so many questions for him but she kept them to herself. And suddenly the very familiar big red man stood in amoungst them. “Mr. Valentine, I presume? It’s great meeting someone of your stature on a night such as this. My friend here,” He looked over to Hymn with a wink. “Has something for you. Why don’t you give it to him?”
And ofcourse he was the birtday boy. He and 6 others if she was correct. Last time she met him she picked up some about 7 of them. She stepped forward and presented him his present. "Happy birthday." She said.
Allot of people where joining. Well allot was a overstatement seeing as they where with 4 people now. Hymn counted them. Yes 4 people. Pix was waving a paper around about a mutant who had a scary name. He was locked up for the reason that he had different dining methods. Hymn pondered the thought about eating with a spoon instead of a fork or something like that. Not that she herself was used to using forks and spoons for that matter. If she had any problems with anything it was locking somebody up for what they are so she decided to join.
“The compound is in the mountains, so.. Who’s got transport.”
She shook her head wildley in a no-manner. She didn't have transportation and even if she had, what would she be doing with it. Letting a crazy person drive was never a good idea but seemingly america itself had no problems with it, atleast that is how she experienced it.
It was a young man who's clothes she tucked. He seemingly had not idea who Valentine was. Kind of strange even for her seeing as it was his birthday party. She shrugged it of as it was a party and nothing more. The young man was talking about the big red man. This made her think that she was actually right and that he was valentine. If so, it was his birthday and that ment she had a reason to find him and talk to him.. not that she needed one.
He wanted her to follow him and meet two other people who might help her on her quest to find the birtday boy. It was a endouvar not to be taken lightly in her eyes. She never got birthday gifts so it was a top priority to deliver the present to the person throwing the party. She followed the young man and his date a bit shyly in the hopes of finding out more.
Money.... the thing people used to purchase certain objects that are needed in everyday life. It was something that Cailyn never fully grasped over. The obtaining and trading of money was something she never really experienced for herself. But non of that mattered seeing as Leila had money to spend on food for her. The question was weither she was hungry or not.
She looked at leila and thought. "I am not hungry, thank you." She said. It was true, that and thrust issues. She gazed outside some more to look for scary people with scary thoughts. Not much could be scene but allot could be heard. Cailyn regretted that she didn't bring her mask. She was a bit scared about it all but atleast in a restaurant she was safe... was she ?
(OOC: sorry for me being late, got ghosts pm a bit late. Ow and i dont know in which car )
Cailyn was sitting tucked away in the car as they drove off. She didn't know anybody by far but she knew certain things about certain people. She didn't know what to expect but seemingly it was one free ride to the sanctuary. Hurrah for her seeing as she got lost most of the time and now she got a freebe home.
She stumbled out of the car and stayed far behind the other people. She didn't know if they where nice, though they where mutants and they fought together.... well sort of fought. She wanted to go inside as fast as possible but seeing as that was safe from well anybody. She quickly skittered to the doors and opened them. She was inside now and she felt safe. If anybody else was going inside they could do that but atleast she felt safer from everyone here.
There was a gathering of some sort for something that people called Valentine's party. Cailyn didn't understand it fully, the only thing she could come up with that it was Valentine's birthday. She didn't know anybody named that way but then again she didn't know many ways to begin with. She was all dressed up in a black short dress that one of the red headed twin girls picked out for her a while back. She never actually wore it though. She had her standard sneakers under it seeing as high heals made her fall over and they weren't very confortable. She wore her mask seeing as party's tend to have lots of people there which could lead into headaches and fainting.
She arrived at the party with her gift in her hand. It was a red box with a green ribbon around it. It was actually a book that she found on the ground in the ruined bookshop (revolving doors thread ) that she took with her. It was called: The once and future king. It seemed interresting and it had a king in it so could be nice, if you could read it. She entered the party and she looked around. Allot of people where there. Their was lots of red around the room and then it hit her. One of the big red men was Valentine. She walked slowly around the room looking for the big red man to give him his gift. She gave up on finding him shortly seeing as the crowd was to big and she decided to ask. She tugged somebody clothes. "Eeehh , sorry eehhh where can i find valentine. " She asked softly and shy. That was one way to get yourself noticed.
(OOC: anybody who wears clothes can reply to my post )
Hymn was playing a card game by herself on the floor of her room. She was sitting on her pillow and she shuffled the cards. She didn't shuffle them as a normal person would. She scattered the cards over the floor and messed them together and rubbed them around. Then she made a nice stack of them and took 5 cards of the top. She looked at them and tilted her head to realize she didn't know card games. She shrugged it off and placed the cards back on the top and repeated the process untill......
A voice was shouting something and the voice sounded familiar to her. She got up excited and looked around the corner of her room. It was the pixy lady from the asylum. She was nice to her. She returned to her room and she reached for the mask she hid under the bed. It was her mask that protected her from weird thoughts when lots of people where around which was handy when she wanted to sleep or not be found by her father. She put on the mask and her breathing could be heard through the mask. She quickly skittered outside of the room towards pix. As she could see her she started to wave to her.
Weird names for weird ways of preparing food where thrown at hymn. She tilted her head while she looked at the food. It was weird but then again most things where weird for her.
"I'm Leila by the way, it's... nice to meet you."
The girl tried to introduce herself to Cailyn. She mostly shyed away from people doing that. She raised her hand like leila did not touching it. She didn't know that shaking hands was normal so she just imitated her but not touching her. "Hello Leila." She said. " They call me Cailyn.' She responded. It would probably be very akward for the both of them but then again, Cailyn was involved.
She nodded in a matter that would mean she wasn't. She was very sleepy and she shuffled towards a bench. She fell down flet on the bench with her pillow under her head. At this moment she was so tired that no whisper or question could keep her awake. Normally she wouldn't do this kind of thing around strangers seeing as she is to paranoid around strangers. She closed her eyes and placed her hand under the pillow. Her other hand was us to place against her lips with the tip of her tumb against her uper lip. She started mubling in her sleep. "Soft." She mumbled as she fell asleep even though people where there.
