HISTORY 

The real Mysta was a member of the 37th Century Inter-Space Justice Syndicate. She disappeared briefly and when she reappeared she did so as the leaderess of the Avon Cult whose followers were willing to commit suicide if she told them they should. The sect spread virulently throughout the Confederate Planets, becoming a threat of considerable proportions. Some members of the Syndicate infiltrated the pseudo-religious organization and discovered that the real Mysta was a prisoner of the cult, which was keeping her in suspended animation. The Mysta who appeared to be the leaderess was nothing more than a clone of the real one controlled by powers hidden in the shadows. The entire Syndicate confronted the cult and after a great battle they declared it dismantled. However, Mysta's clone managed to escape from them and, now detached from the powers that used her as a puppet, she reorganized the remnants of the sect under the name of The Tamys Heresy (the name with which she renamed herself). Tamys proved to be more cunning than those who created her, as she kept her Heresy always below the radar of the Confederate Planets, acting in a more hidden and secretive manner. 

POWERS & WEAPONS 

Tamys was a genetic clone of Mysta and possessed some of her special qualities. Her strength, stamina, agility, and senses were at the human limit. Tamys's brain was not electronically stimulated, nor was she implanted with a compendium of all human knowledge like Mysta's, but she still demonstrated great cunning and intelligence. Tamys, like Mysta, had the paranormal ability to project her astral form, she coulc project mental illusions and was able to see through the veil of illusion. Tamys had an ability that Mysta did not have, and that was to see the most probable future at any given moment, which gave her a great tactical advantage.
