The year is 2020 and mutants are being hunted down by a rouge sect of S.H.I.E.L.D. known as F.I.S.T. (Faith, Immortality, Salvation, Transcendence). They are known for radical experiments and testing on mutants and are led by an extremist by the name of Doctor David Swift. He was once a renown and proud scientist of S.H.I.E.L.D. but with his extremist ideals he was excommunicated. Doctor Swift is scientific man who believes that in order to achieve immortality you need to find a sort of physical transcendence through salvation along with faith, which is how he came to form F.I.S.T. Now the man has used all his powers and resources in finding mutants with various abilities and mutations to achieve his goal of immortality.
Mutants who are on the run often try their best blending in with today's society, but there are various camps and refuges hidden in dense forests or underground cities. Always on the run not just from F.I.S.T. but from many others who either seek to harness the power of mutants or eradicate the threat that they bring.
There is a rumor going around that somewhere in the North County of New York there lies an oasis that grants safe passages to mutants to get to anywhere and where they assist in connecting lost mutants to their friends and families. All the rumors have been spreading like wild-fire and most mutants who are seeking to get away from the grasps of F.I.S.T. are heading to the refuge as quickly as possible.
