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.

It would seem that upon seeing the massive red man behind them the two men harassing the darkness user would find that it may be in their best interest to skitter away back to the their table in the room. A small smile crept across Sapphires pale face as she looked up at her ‘savior’ with an amused expression on her face. She found it interesting that this person she didn’t even really know decided to come to aide. Though she didn’t really need it and she was planning on flaying the men alive once they left the establishment, it was a rather nice gesture.
“Want a drink good sir?” She asked him, being rather polite for such a place like this. She gestured to the barstool next to her.“Though, my business with those men isn’t finished yet, I shall pay them a visit later on. But, for saving me the hastle of doing it in a public dwelling, I believe I owe you a drink.”

Walking into a place she had never been to wasn’t normally a good idea, but since Sapphire was just in the mood to drink she really didn’t give a damn. The pale skinned darkness manipulator aimlessly stared at her finger nails as she waited for her drink to be filled and once it was she took a long drink of the rum, smirking a little at the bartenders surprised face. His faces closed however when the grungy men came up, most likely asking for something or another from Sapphire. Now while normally, this would be a good opportunity for her to destroy some human lives for just the hell of it, that’s not how she rolled so she merely smiled at the two.
“You boys should run along now, I'm not interested in whatever sexual you wish to induldge yourself with on my young body.” Sapphire told them both, not looking up from her drink. The mistress of Darkness waved her hand dismissively at the two, watching their surprised faces.

Sapphire had walked into the bar with one thing and one thing in mind, to get some rum. Now while she could go into any other bar to get it, they would most likely water it down or suggest she gets some fruity crap that tasted like it should be in a kids juice box. The young Lady of Darkness just wanted some good old fashioned rum.
It was rather understandable though that she got some pretty confused looks as she walked into the bar as well when she walked up to the bar and asked for a glass of rum. After a tiny bit though the young woman stopped getting those stares and the patrons of the bar went back to normal.
((im really tired so this is all I can think of, sorry about that))

Sapphire chuckled in response to the woman’s words. “I doubt Emerald will want to see me, it isn’t exactly a Lupin Family tradition to forgive and to forget, if you get what im saying.” Sapphire was very well aware that it was possible for her younger sister to never forgive her for what she did nearly ten years ago but she really didn’t care. What she did was only for her sisters benefit, to make them the best they could be, even if they had to be in pain for it to happen.
“Mmmm, perhaps,” Sapphire pondered aloud, walking over to one of the tarps and pulling it off of the painting. It was one very similar to the previous one in color scheme but for more outlandish in choices of mythical entities. There was a leprechaun giving all of his gold into the pouch of a smiling Kangaroo who was dressed in rags. “I think I may have been drunk when I painted this.”

Sapphire was very familiar with the overall feelings of nervousness that were often evoked by her saying who she was. It was apparent that she had built up quite a reputation among other mutants, mainly due to the fact of how easily she switched sides in the mutants vs humans miniature ‘war’ that often went on. In all honesty, Sapphire didn’t give a damn of who won all she cared about was the safety of her family. If it took her massacring all of mutant kind to give her family what she believed they needed, then so be it.
“You know my sisters, well that’s good, I hope you have been keeping an eye on them since their return to the mansion a few months ago.” Sapphire told Raina, with a calm and cool voice. While she was partially glad that her younger siblings had made a friend but the other part was very jealous that this woman got to spend more time with her sisters than she did and though she did not show it on her face, her very soul began to burn with building hatred for this woman. She smiled that sweet and slightly sadistic smile at Raina.
“You seem somewhat nervous may I ask if its because of the rumors you have heard about me? I have heard of some pretty bad ones, ones calling me the angel of death or some nonsense and I’m wondering if you heard any of them All I do is just paint my portraits to earn a living as well as occasionally visit my siblings.” There was a pause as a tendril of Darkness arose from the ground, grabbing the discarded sheet and placing it in the corner of the room with various others. She turned back to Raina with the same smile. “Im just a normal artist with the exception of the mutation.”

Sapphire listened to the woman, rolling her eyes a little at the blush. The woman didn’t need to be embarrassed all because she was trying to guilt the rich people out of their money. Sapphire had murdered people for money before so this woman had nothing to worry about.
It was at this point when the oldest Lupin sister recognized Raina as Naveeds sister and she made her mental note that she wasn’t allowed to murder her for any reason. It would be rather bad for a relationship with a friend if he found out you murdered his precious younger sibling wouldn’t it? So Sapphire went over to one of the covered paintings and removed the cover from it. The painting was one of hers and it was a beautiful painting painted in a darker color palette, of a Mermaid holding a gold doubloon near the bottom of the sea floor as various other doubloons rained from the sky. The sea water was painted a dark blue while the coral, fish, doubloons and the mermaid were painted in lighter colors to stand at a contrast to the darkness surrounding them.
“Would this be something you are interested in Raina?” Sapphire asked, the cool calm words escaping her lips. “I painted this one myself and while its not one of my best I believe it suits your purpose. Oh, and My name is Sapphire Lupin.”
The woman’s cold blue eyes looked at the other woman, waiting for her reaction at the fact she was the oldest of the Lupin family. While she did look like the other Lupins in certain ways, what was most distinctive was that she didn’t look nearly as animalistic as her siblings or mother for that matter. It was one of the mysteries of the gene that the Lupins had in them, that was not yet known to anyone but family and their previous ‘master’.

Temporarily deserted would be the proper term for the gallery, considering this was an off week for it. It was a rather strange little gala with strange little pieces from various artists, but it would seem that the art that was most prevalent was the art by a one, SL, or better known as Sapphire Lupin. The art ranged from an often realistic style with the portraits of women and men to a more imaginative or darker style style with drawings of wolves running on water or a snake constricting around a test tube and a beaker blood staining its fangs.
Behind an Easel that had not yet been started on, sat the oldest Lupin herself, Sapphire Lupin, staring at the easel as she tried to think of her next piece. She had heard the woman come in and rose from her seat in order to greet a possible customer. Though she did not own the Art Gallery, she was its best selling artist so she didn’t want to throw the chance of a possible sale away. Cold, eerie blue eyes fell on Raina with a tiny glint of curiosity lighting up within them. She had seen this woman hanging out with her younger siblings before and he couldn’t help but wonder what sort of relationship she had with them.
“Welcome, I see that you have found us our not so busy day.” Sapphire told the woman, placing a strand of black hair behind her ear. The mysterious beauty paused for a moment before stating. “Is there anything I can help you with, I may be just one of the artists but I know all of the artists here by heart and I can help you find what you are looking for.”

Oh no they were going to try to attack, how absolutely terrifying. Well, it would be terrifying if Sapphire didn't have an exact way to combat them in their assault against her. First things first though, she had to leave these boys with some sort of witty saying or terrifying remark. The artist chose to go with the latter of these two choices and smile rather sadistically at these two. While it was true she was a tiny bit on the insane side, she did have enough sense to leave a battle when she knew it was going to end badly, which this battle was going to end badly. Most likely for both sides because sapphire wasn't in a pleasant mood anymore and that means she would most likely slip up and get blood all over her white dress and this was the last thing she wanted.
“Well then, if you want to mess up my pretty little face, Im afraid that will be quite impossible. Do me a favor and say hello to Frances and George for me, they will take good care of you boys.” Sapphire smiled that sweet angelic and slightly sadistic smile.
With that, the mysterious murderous woman sunk into the floor in a small swirling black hole that only appeared under her own feet as the boys were charging up their attack. Now at this point one must wonder if she had been able to do that the whole time, why hadn't she done it sooner. The answer was simple really, she was Sapphire Lupin, oldest of the Lupin sisters and by far the most sadistic little darkness controllers anyone would ever meet. The thought of making those boys squirm and fear for their lives was too juicy of an opportunity to pass up.
If the boys looked behind the bar, all the rum would be gone as well as any trace of the woman that was there previously. Another interesting thing that somewhere off in the distance sirens began to blare, loudly and oddly enough they sounded as if they were getting closer. The artist may or may not have informed the local police of some 'horrible mutants' killing an entire room of bikers and leaving no trace. The cops that were coming may or may not be named Frances and George, two dirty cops that worked for Sapphires employer. Judging, by the set pieces, the moves and the results, Sapphire Lupin had played her cards right and by the end of the night, she had a Royal Flush in her hand.
((Sapphire called the Police on yall, telported away away and took any trace of her with her. Shes a smooth criminal. Yall are more than welcome to not get caught by the police.))

“If you boys just let me leave I could have been home right now baking cookies. But noo, you just had to play idiot super heroes!” Sapphire told them, a tone of exasperation clear in her voice
Sapphires lips twitched when they dodged her beautifully planned attack. While it was an unexpected setback, Sapphire didn’t pay too much mind to it, due to the fact that the mistress of darkness was used to setbacks like this.
Both men seemed to have miraculously dodged her attacks, leaving her quite perturbed as they seemingly got ready for battle with her. The weak man flipped over a table while the oddly dressed man snatched up a cash register, probably to throw it at her.
And here Sapphire thought these men were complete idiots.
Well, they were because now they had given her a new weapon to use against them. Sapphire focused the darkness tendrils on the table and with great force flung it at the strangely dressed man. The artist took this chance to make tiny dark spikes appear behind the man who was seemingly beating himself with a crowbar and attempted to stab him in the back with them.

Sapphire gazed at the two as they stood in front of her, blocking her way out. Both said their piece about how she was a bad person, no one should be allowed to kill others and other such things she did not care about. It was truly a shame they did not let her go as she wished, she wasn’t really in the mood to kill any more people tonight but those two had to stick their nose into where it doesn’t belong. Sapphire backed up from the two blocking her way, going over to her easel and painting, placing both objects behind the bar. Once that was taken care of the young woman retrieved a bottle of rum from behind the bar, removing its seal and began to drink it. After a long swallow of the alcoholic beverage the artist placed the bottle back behind the bar. She walked back over to the place she stood before with a small smile curving across that pale face of hers.
“I didn’t want to do this, but time to play boys.” Sapphire told them, focusing her ability on the wall behind them and black spikes erupted from the wall, heading straight towards both of the mens legs. It wasn’t a killing move but if it hit it would sure hurt.
(sorry it took so long brain went blah and college))
Another laugh escaped her lips when the other man spoke again, hardly able to contain herself. She just found it hysterical how wrong this man was about her and what she did. It wasn’t like she worked for the government; she was more of a private woman, who tended to do private things. Both of the ‘men’ as she decided to call the other one after a trial and error moment in her head, looked like they wanted to fight her, but this was quite the opposite of what she wanted to do. All she wanted was to finish her painting, leave without a scratch on her, go collect her paycheck and then…visit her family because they hadn’t seen her in a while.
“I am not a bounty hunter; I’m an assassin thank you very much.” Sapphire replied indignantly . Glaring at the two men as if it should have been the most obvious thing in the world. Sapphire ran her pale hand through her soft black curls and leg ou a sigh. “My client pays me to wipe out a room filled with drug dealing hustlers that are interfering with business, I do so, I get to go home and visit my family in peace. Also, No mater if they are human or mutant, I will always keep the clients confidential Its like a second job if you will. Now, if you boys do not mind and move aside, I will just take my paints and leave. I really do not want to hurt anyone I was not paid to hurt.”
The mistress of darkness took a step forward, not looking menacing at all really. She actually just looked like a woman that was going to try to get home from work safely.

The man who stood before the artist looked aghast at what she had accomplished here in the bar. He then questioned who she was and why in the world she was doing such a thing. It was actually none of his business what her reasoning behind the massacre was. However, since he did seem like a fascinating male to screw around with mentally and perhaps other ways if she felt the need to do so.
Cool, calm blue eyes focused on the young man, her smile still on the seemingly delicate face of hers. This was when another person made their way into her temporary ‘studio’ causing Sapphire’s calm face to waver with confusion for a moment. Her focus turned to the person who asked the male if he did this and a light laugh escaped her lips. It was a rather beautiful laugh that would typically be admired in a social setting. Though, in a setting such as this, it would almost seem unsettling to hear the culprit of the crime laugh as if she heard a really good joke.
"I doubt this man has the strength to kill an old man on his deathbed, let alone a room full of bikers. One of these men even had a bounty on his head - a rather hefty one, as well."Sapphire told them both, amusement clear on her face. "As for who I am and why I did it? If I told you, would you not turn me in to the police? However, I doubt that the police would want me in their jail, considering what happened last time. Why I did it,though, is simple. I was told to, in order to get my paycheck. So, I did it without question. The inspiration it gives me is a rather lovely bonus."
Sapphire spoke so cordially to both of them that it seemed that she would be talking of nothing more than the weather or who won the last baseball game. The Artist was so happy that someone came in to see her little display that she should have brought little party hats and given them to whoever walked in. Maybe killing the occasional person who wore pink or that accursed magenta, she hated those colors with a deep passion.
Sapphire's Avvie and Sig are a little outdated to say the least considering i changed her appearance to curly air and her eyes back to blue. I was wondering If anyone could help me out with the Mistress of Darkness Avatar and Signature. And If an Actor Is Needed, I would Suggest Amy Lee Because that is the only person I can think of that looks like Sapphire. And If the Signature can have some sort of cool dark saying that would be cool too, I just need something to fit the Insane Artist More. Anime Pictures work too, just whatever you guys can do is fine with a photo shop inept like me is good.
