History
The X-Treme Sanctions Executive, also known by the abbreviation XSE, was founded by Storm, at the behest of the United Nations, in order to police the growing mutant population. Several former X-Treme X-Men members joined her group, including Sage, Bishop and Cannonball. Other X-Men to join their cause were Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Rachel Summers, using her mother's former codename, Marvel Girl.
Whilst on a trip to England, to visit Brian Braddock, the brother of Betsy Braddock, who was murdered on a mission with the X-Men by Vargas, Marvel Girl, Cannonball and Bishop were attacked by The Fury. Sage was able to construct a plan to defeat The Fury, however Cannonball was forced to take a leave of absence to recuperate from his injuries. Although their battle with The Fury had left Brian's ancestral home in ruins, when the XSE returned, they found the house re-built, and Brian and Meggan unharmed. Storm apologised to Brian for his sister's murder, but he did not blame her for what happened, as he knew that Betsy made her own choices. Upon leaving Braddock manor, Rachel sees Jamie, Brian and Betsy's older brother, before he quickly disappears. Sage later felt she had to rejoin the Hellfire Club, in order to keep an eye on Roberto da Costa, who had decided to become the new Lord Imperial, to ensure he was not corrupted by power, like Sabastian Shaw was.
The team was called to Spain, where Psylocke had reappeared alive and unharmed in the exact place of her death. She was placed under arrest by the Spanish government, and Storm's team had been contacted to collect her. The team later visited the Savage Land, where Rachel was subjected to the mind-control of a tribe of advanced dinosaur people, the Hauk'ka, causing her to believe she belonged to their species. She began to subconsciously use her telekinesis to alter her own genome in their image. The Hauk'ka's goal was to use Storm's power to control the weather to destroy humanity. When her powers became unstable, the Hauk'ka and the XSE were forced to make an alliance to stop her from destroying the planet. After their mission was successful, the XSE made peace with Hauk'ka, and Rachel was released from their mind control.
Following the events of M-Day, and the decimation of the majority of the world's mutant populace, the team shifted their attention to aiding the remaining mutant populace, liasing with the US Government's O*N*E program. Storm chose to work in Africa, to help the people of her native land.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Every generation rewrites the past. In easy times history is more or less of an ornamental art, but in times of danger we are driven to the written record by a pressing need to find answers to the riddles of today.... In times of change and danger when there is a quicksand of fear under men’s reasoning, a sense of continuity with generations gone before can stretch like a lifeline across the scary present and get us past that idiot delusion of the exceptional Now that blocks good thinking.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“All history and art are against us, but we still expect happiness in love.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
