Premise
The year is 2019, and the governments of the world are becoming aware of individuals with supernatural abilities. Several agencies have arisen in hopes of covering the rise in population of these individuals, known to the world as mutants. O.M.E.N is on of those agencies, and they strike fear in the hearts of mutants across the globe. The main goal of this agency is to destroy the entire mutant population, and to cover up their disappearances.
On the other side, the agency S.H.E.I.L.D works to help the mutant population, and hope that one day the mutants might be able to protect the world from an even greater threat than themselves, and they work hard to keep the mutants a secret.
The rise in the deaths of the mutants at the hands of OMEN have caused tensions to rise between two separate groups of mutants, The X-Men from Xavier's Institute, and The Brotherhood of Mutants. The Brotherhood seeks to destroy the normal human population in order to save the mutants, while the X-Men wish to have a peaceful coexistence between humans and mutants.
Now, it is time for you to choose a side...
