X-Forces

The X-Forces are a international military organization, whose publicly known purpose is to investigate reports of activities of dangerous or wanted superhuman mutants or mutanics; and to hunt down and capture them. The organization's main goal is to prevent those mutants and/or mutanics from presenting any further threat to the society. 

The organization was formed during the reign of terror brought by the Mutanic virus and the mutanics themselves. The founder was none other than Lincoln Howell, a brilliant man who worked for the U.S. Army. His main job was to design and create weapons, vehicles and gadgets beyond present technology. For the the authorities and the U.S. Army could not prevent the mutanics from heir rampage throughout the city, Howell brought together a team of five highly trained military men and armed them with his high-tech weapons and gadgets. Together, he formed the group called the X-Forces. Howell and his team succeeded in capturing and eliminating the mutanics in various parts of the city and were claimed heroes by the citizens. When the government found out about their work and doings, they approached them with a deal for the government to aid and fund them in their goal to decrease the population of mutanics. The group eventually became a widely known organization that now has over five main headquarters all over the world.

The X-Forces consist of highly-trained individuals with or without superhuman abilities. Those with superhuman abilities included the Hulk, Hawkman, former Agent X, former Claws, and tons more. What they do with captured criminals are specified to be imprisoned in conventional facilities for the less powerful or the Vault for the more dangerous ones.

Affiliates: Biotech Industries, U.S. Military and Technology Department and the Vault.

MAFIAN

The MAFIAN is an international crime syndicate that is the world's most powerful organization dedicated to conventional crime (as opposed to subversive activities). The MAFIAN's head and founder is none other than the Mafian himself. The Mafian's real name is actually Ronaldo Perisse II, an Italian-American born in Italy. The MAFIAN was formerly known as the Crime of Inter-Nations, where its members are large criminal groups in certain places in countries. Today, the MAFIAN controls most criminal actions such as drug-related, loan-sharking, assassinations, terrorist, narcotics trade and other criminal related activities throughout the world. The MAFIAN also has access to illegal physical enhancement drugs provided by a Power Broker Inc. and access to illegal and secret scientific experiments to create a superhuman-human assassin or henchman with incredible powers and abilities. The MAFIAN has also said to have conduct illegal cloning experiments, where he would duplicate his henchmen to twice the original number.

The Mafian's identity, though, has never been revealed and because of that, he has never been arrested, caught, apprehend by the police, CIA, FBI or even those superheroes stopping his activity throughout the city. From a small gang stealing in the streets of downtown, to an international crime wave all around the world, the MAFIAN is known to be the richest criminal organization on earth. The main headquarters is located secretly underground below an old abandon warehouse, just over the outskirts of New York.

Inner Core

Director: Unknown

The Inner Core was a former main branch of the CIA, established to counter international criminal activities, most of them related to the MAFIAN. Till today, the Inner Core remains the largest and most secretive organization where even the U.S. President himself, does not know of its existence.

The bulk of the Inner Core's operations are covert, but a number involve  public activities that were accomplished using a fake organization name called the Covert Nine. Nothing much can be said about the Inner Core except for that its secret intentions are run a covert school to train young men and women to become  professional agents in the future. This school, is the heart of the Inner Core.

Known agents: Thomas Holmes (Agent 922)

 

World Mutant Gladiator Federation (WMGF)
The World Mutant Gladiator Federation is an association for professional fighters or wrestlers who possess superhuman and mutant powers and abilities. The W.M.G.F.  was founded by wrestling manager and promoter Edward Garner, who also founded the Unlimited Class Wrestling Federation. His association was for superhumans and mutants to meet together and compete, powers to powers. Such and different powers are categorized strictly, to keep the fighters well matched. Such of these categories include strength levels, physical powers and mental powers. Originally, to qualify for the W.M.G.F., an applicant must be able to lift (press) a minimum of two tons. Now, due to strict rules and regulations, the minimum strength has raised to 3 tons, to avoid any serious injuries to the applicants. For the strength sub-categories, the lightweight division is for wrestlers who can lift in the 3 - 7 ton range, the middleweight division is for the 7 - 25, the heavyweight is for 25-35, and finally, the Grand Showdown, for any champion of the middleweight or lightweight range to fight those that are 35 +. In order to enter the Grand Showdown, any applicant must win twenty (20) fights in one row without losing. The person who can beat the 5 defenders of the Grand Showdown will receive the World Mutant Gladiator Trophy and a sum for up to one million dollars.

The most popular show for the last season was the fight between the Hulk and Omega which ended up Hulk 9, Omega 0.

Biotech Industries
Biotech Industries is one of the most achieving and outstanding science and technology departments in the world. Biotech deals with scientific experiments for either the government or for the future to come. Located in the heart of New York City, Biotech Industries are certified with all legal services to access any equipment from the government. Associated with Biotech is also the X-Forces, who aid them in fighting with the mutanics and its partner, the U.S. Military Technology Department, who fund them for their designs and ideas for weapons of the future. Many of the experiments Biotech Industries perform are sometimes illegal and secret - the perfect reason why there so many enhanced beings running around. Biotech Industries were also responsible for the Mutanic virus and were to shut down for quarantined. But the corporation was saved when the X-Forces were established. Little does anyone know that the head of Biotech, Dr. Henry Simile, was actually a mutant who later turned into a Grade C mutanic.

 

Vault, The

Built in 21st Century, the Vault was nicknamed for the United States government's Maximum Security Installation for the Incarceration of Superhuman Criminals and has kept that name ever since. The Vault's cells were specifically designed and built to cope with a number of various superhuman criminals that are able to escape easily if imprisoned in conventional facilities. The reason? Adamantium walls, cells and handcuffs. 

The Vault has been upgraded to advanced technology over the years and has been proven virtually  inescapable. The high-tech prison is located at Old Riker's Island Prison, outside New York City, ever since the old jailhouse was demolished in the 21st Century. 

The Vault has a lifetime partnership with the X-Forces and some unnamed secret organizations and holds about sixty-two superhuman criminals and a few mutanics imprisoned at this moment.
