First Seen: July 22, 2010


X-Factor Investigations is a private investigative agency located in the center of District X.


First Appearance

July 2010 - Vanessa and Bishop investigated a number of missing persons who turned out to be related to Haven and the Untouchables losing their mutations.


Details

After Vanessa Carlysle left her job at Snow Valley Memorial Center for Mutant Affairs and X-Force she spent a few months figuring out what she wanted to do. What she came up with was a PI firm in District X so the mutants there would have someone they could trust to look into things for them, help protect them from those who wanted to target them for being mutants and also direct them to the proper people to help them when needed. She went to Charles Xavier to bounce ideas off of and he extended her an offer. The Xavier Institute would help fund her agency as long as they would be a resource of the Institute. This meant She'd have to agree to looking into strange readings the Professor got from Cerebro that he didn't feel warranted X-Men attention and things like that. In turn for his help, though, she'd need to keep things strictly above board. No shady dealings or questionable tactics. At least not on the books where it can be traced back to the agency and therefore Xavier's name.

Vanessa accidentally recruited Lucas Bishop who obtained a PI license and the pair were set to open shop. Vanessa did the legwork to find them an office and get all the paperwork in line while working with Xavier to ensure she had all her business bases covered. What she hadn't realized she'd acquired, though, was a "Girl Friday," who she promptly gave to Bishop. Over time others joined - Laura Kinney and Jean-Paul Beaubier - while Sarah Vale came on board to take on the Girl Friday position from Laurie Collins and Sarah's sister, Jessie, came in to help fill more hours as the office's Girl Friday when Sarah wasn't working.
