Helix

Rumored to be lead by three Marid who are rumored to control Helix, Helix had several bases across North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and even Antarctica run by Ifrit level commanders. The organization manufactures poisons and meta-human power granting pharmaceuticals, called Temporary Genetic Enhancers (TGEs). Their latest formula, XS, is a combat level, more stable version of their original TGE formula. There's also a street version called XL, which is essentially XS cut with fillers to make it cheaper for the populace.

Their agents are designated as Djinn and Jann.

In 2053, the local Helix headquarters in Colonial Bay and the commanding Ifrit was captured by a group of heroes, and a simultaneous assault captured 8 other bases. There's an estimate of at least another 24 bases that have yet to be discovered.

Drugs
Helix has several versions of their TGEs, aka "Genie Bottles". Their latest formula, XS, is a combat level, more stable version of their original TGE formula. There's also a street version called XL, which is essentially XS cut with fillers to make it cheaper for the populace.

XL goes by the street names "Rush", "Flood" or "Invincible". It induces a state nicknamed "overdrive", making users euphoric, aggressive, and unpredictable.
