Biography
Origin
Zoë Saugin is the daughter of Azra Saugin, an archeologist who often travelled from world to world in search of artifacts. While pregnant with Zoë, Azra found the sorceress Mysa, almost frozen to death, on Tharn. 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, when she did, and a healing glow encompassed them - which, unbeknowst to Azra, affected her unborn child too.
After Zoë and her brother, Tharot, were born, Azra continued to travel from world to world in search of artifacts, taking her children with her. While Tharot was openly resentful of this, Zoë - though happy when her mother found the things she was looking for - tried to conceal how she, like her brother, was usually "too hot or too cold, too hyper or too bored - and always too useless" on the digs, although her mother was good to them when the work was done.
Just before she turned ten, however, her life changed when her mother was caught by a booby-trap of poisonous gas on a dig. With her mother bedridden and the doctors seemingly useless, Zoë searched through her mother's books. There, she found a reference to a spell involving the Moon of Kroll, an artifact her mother had retrieved some time before, which could "transform a drop of love to a wellspring of health once a generation." When her brother laughed at her, she did the spell alone. Though it terrified her mother, it worked, and gave the young Zoë a taste for power.
For the next three years, she appointed herself her mother's apprentice, searching for more magic. Then, as a young teenager, she found it in the form of an energy pool on Titan which gave her telekinetic powers, and while her mother was initially scared, Zoë peeling away a week's worth of digging in seconds to find the idol her mother had been looking for seemed to assuage her fear.
Legion
Several years later - during which she tried and failed to find more power on fifteen seperate occasions - Zoë was inducted into the Legion as Aleph's draftee - although she rejected their suggestion of "Morpho" as a codename, preferring Kinetix. Leviathan would develop an immediate crush on her. Outgoing and vivacious, she quickly made friends in the team - in particular with the reserved Shrinking Violet. After a relatively short time on the team, however, she took Violet on a dig where she found the Star of Akkos - which instead of empowering her further, as intended, drained her existing power away.
Devestated at being left useless again, President Chu refused to allow her to leave the Legion, since Aleph didn't have a replacement super-being available. Instead, she took a leave of absence in an attempt to restore her powers or find new ones - but disaster struck again when, while her Legion Cruiser was in transit between Stargates, the destination gate was destroyed by the White Triangle as part of a program of Stargate-destruction. Despite the computer saying her survival chances were nil, she managed to slow down into normal space without being ripped apart - but the Cruiser's life support was critically damaged in the process. She tried to find a planet to land on, but eventually fell unconscious under the failing life support, and the other systems failed until she was left, standed and dying, in space.
Pointed ears and a tail
Before she finally expired, however, she was retrieved by Mysa, who had been following her progress, and teleported her to her home on Zarrox. Without revealing her connection to her, she said she'd cast a spell to keep the Legionnaires from worrying about her - except perhaps Violet, who had a strong bond with her. Mysa then told Kinetix half-truths about her own history with the Emerald Eye - which even an image of fascinated Kinetix, but Mysa insisted had to be destroyed.
After this, Mysa took her out to the wasteland that was Zarrox's surface, and reempowered her, which had the side effect of turning her into an albino with pointed ears, a tail, and a distinctive tattoo on her left cheek. After this, she teleported her away and told her not to come back without the Eye.
Kinetix emerged into a pitched battle between the Legion and the Fatal Five. Confused, she was just in time to save Violet from the Empress, who herself displayed interest in the Eye. Shortly after, the Five teleported away, and she was reunited with the team. In the midst of the greetings, Spark discovered her new tail, much to Kinetix's own shock and Gates' bemusement.
After the Five - along with their benefactor, President Chu - were dealt with, she interviewed the captive Empress to no effect - the Empress, though desperate to find the Eye for herself, had no idea of its' whereabouts. Thereafter, when then-leader Cosmic Boy had gone to Titan with Saturn Girl and Live Wire, and Leviathan, as Deputy, had been sent to Xanthu with a team to let Star Boy stay with the Legion, Leviathan appointed her acting leader until either him or Cosmic Boy got back, or the ongoing election was done.
Two hours later, Brainiac 5 had quit, with an ongoing feeling that the Legion was over-relying on his brainpower brought to a head by Kinetix's attitude. Several promises and the hiring of Doctor Gym'll to handle medical work were required before he withdrew the resignation, and Triad was installed as acting leader until the election process was complete, with the increasingly-confident Shrinking Violet chosen.
In the meantime, her search for the Eye, even with the Legion's resources behind her, was proceeding fruitlessly, until, on a mission to Gallen, strange things started to happen, including the three Triads suddenly becoming physically different and unable to remerge, and the mission ended with Leviathan's heroic death. Distraught, Violet knelt beside him and started to glow green...
