From the planet Aleph comes Zoe Saugin, Kinitix, a wielder of found telekinetic magic. Zoe has gone trough several changes since becoming Kinetix, she is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 30th century. Edit


ORIGIN

Incantations of Power !
The young woman who would one day become a Legionnaire, Zoe Saguen, was a bright and wonder lust driven child. Her mother Azra was a renown archaeologist   who took both her children Zoe and her younger brother Thanot to different worlds on her digs. On one such dig Azra inhaled poisonous gas  which started eating away at her lungs, slowly killing her. Feeling helpless as she watched her mother dying, Zoe searched through Azra's books and found a magical incantation using the Moon of Kol, an ancient and supposed powerful artifact which Azra discovered.

The Moon did indeed as per its spell transform a "drop of love into a wellspring of health" once in a lifetime. With this newfound magic powers Zoe managed to heal her mother, and thus began the change from her  wonder lust  to an obsession  in the discovery of power. Zoe truly only wanted her wonderful gifts to be used to help others and achieve a higher sense of self. However, while her reasons were noble, Zoe's power lust became a dangerous obsession.

Hunt for the Lost Ark
Zoe spent several years searching the Galaxy for more sources of magic which she could use to rejuvenate herself with.  While exploring caverns on the moon Titan which orbited Saturn, she encountered a powerful energy pool which gave her telekinetic powers. Zoe became a representative of the Council of Alepth who presented her as Metamorph to the United Planet's Legion of Super-Heroes. However hating the name she changed it to Kinetix, short for  "telekinetic". She was invited to join the Legion of Super-Heroes as part of the second set of recruits alongside Shrinking Violet, later becoming best friends.

As Kinetix she became a valued member of the Legion, rising on every occasion as a brave and exuberant member. Kinetix slowly became attracted to fellow member Leviathan, both having a crush on each other, they began to court. However the shy Shrinking Violet  also had a long standing crush on  Leviathan and was crushed when she found her best friend taking her secret love. 

Giving the Evil EyeZoe, however, continued to search for more power and located the Star of Akkos along with Shrinking Violet, thinking it would increase her powers. The Star instead robbed her of her powers. Zoe went on a leave of absence to look for a way to restore her powers. She was traveling through a stargate when rogue Daxamite's destroyed her destination stargate, leaving her stranded. Her life support was running out when she was saved by the sorceress Mysa (White Witch) and brought to Zarrox, the Sorcerer's World.

Giving the Evil Eye
Mysa trained Zoe in the mystic arts and restored her powers, altering her appearance in the process; Zoe's skin became paler, with a tattoo on her cheek, pointed elf-like ears, and a tail. Mysa sent Zoe back to the Legion to find the Emerald Eye. Unbeknownst to Zoe, her best friend Violet had already been possessed by the Eye.

Zoe, reeling from Leviathan's loss and Violet's possession, was transported by Mysa back to Zarrox along with her family and some of her teammates. Mysa was about to drain Zoe of her powers again to punish her for not being able to find the Eye first, but Azra then revealed that she had met Mysa before while she was near death, and had used a mystic artifact to heal her.

Cosmic Calling !
Azra was pregnant with Zoe at the time and the artifact's energies forged a link between Zoe and Mysa, which allowed Mysa to manipulate Zoe later in life, and also changed Zoe's genetic structure, giving her an affinity for magic which enabled her to later absorb the energy pool on Titan. Azra shamed Mysa into admitting her debt, and used the Star of Akkos to restore Zoe's powers and original appearance. Kinetix went on to be instrumental in the defeat of Mordru and freeing Violet from the Eye.

 Exploring a mysterious space-time anomaly and with other Legionnaires, enthralled by its power Zoe became almost catatonic. Her energetic and optimistic personality disappeared, becoming submerged, leaving a silent husk of who she had been. Worried about her best friend Violet and teammate Spark convinced genius member Brainiac 5 to use his Anywhere Machine to help Zoe shut off the awe she felt at the incredible power.  Thanks to her fellow Legionnaires she was awakened and returned to normal.

TERRAFORMING

Into the Cosmic Soup
Zoe was one of the Legionnaires who were taken by the wave of the voracious Blight, or brainwashed and rengineered into hunters and killers. Several of her teammates were lost and the Legion disbanded shortly thereafter after trying to seal a spacial rift created during their battle with the Blighted. After the Legion disbanded, Kinetix joined the Science Police and was stationed on Earth as a new and hopeful recruit.

When the strange and cosmic creatures known as the Terrorforms changed the people of Earth, Zoe was among the genetic few who became a Terrorform. As a Terrorform, Zoe was linked to the planetary biosphere and responsible, with her fellow Terrorforms, for safeguarding and speeding up the evolutionary process on Earth. Zoe was a unique Terrorform in that she still possessed a shred of her old personality and memories, thanks to her background in magic.

One with the Earth
Zoe rejoined the Legion after it was reformed and played a key role in stopping Ra's al Ghul. She was part of the team until the Fatal 500 crisis, and was apparently stuck in the timestream along with the rest of the Legion. However Kinetix has not been shown to be a member of the current version of the Legion, which has its own internal chronology and history separate from previous versions.
