Biography
Overthrow
The Lady Mysa was born to [[Mordru/Post-Zero Hour|Mordru], the Dark Lord, some time between the 21st and 28th Centuries, although her time and place of birth and identity of her mother have been lost.
What is known is that, in the 29th Century, she led a revolt against her father - who then controlled an Empire encompassing a large area of space - and ultimately succeeded in entombing him on the desolate asteroid of Yuen, but not before "everyone [she] could trust - everyone [she] had ever loved - had been killed or corrupted by [her] father" and she herself had been physically aged from a woman who, by human standards, appeared to be in her late twenties to someone in her eighties. In the aftermath, the Emerald Eye - Mordru's favourite tool - fled, while she buried his personal talismans on Binder-7, another remote, desolate asteroid.
After these exertions, she retired to Zarrox, the Sorceror's World and dropped out of general sight for decades, with any excursions from there unrecorded.
Frozen
She was next seen, almost frozen to death, on Tharn, where she was found by the archelogist Azra Saugin. Mysa, delirious, moaned something about a sceptre that could restore her, which Azra would have written off as madness - had she not had the very sceptre in question in her bag. Mysa begged Azra to give her it when she brought it out - and when she did, a healing glow encompassed them - which, unbeknownst to Azra, affected her unborn child too, forging a link between the child and Mysa and giving her the potential for great power.
Manipulation
The child, Zoë Saugin, would discover her potential when she used a mystical object to heal her mother after poisonous gas had caused her lungs to atrophy. She became obsessed with the search for power - and finally found it as an energy pool on Titan which gave her telekinetic powers. Mysa instantly became aware of the change in Zoë, and followed her early career as the Legion's Kinetix.
Seeing Kinetix's continuing power-lust, while - in Mysa's opinion - not using what she had to the full, she planted the Star of Akkos in a dig Kinetix and Shrinking Violet were visiting. As she planned, Kinetix found it - and it stole her power.
