Cynosure, which is a hereditary mantle, was appointed shortly after her
predecessor lost his life to the creature
Abyss. This new Cynosure has been placed in command of her planet’s protectors, the
Luminals, and also serves as the Council Deputy for one of the delegates aboard the floating head of a decapitated
Celestial called
Knowhere. A stickler for the rules, Cynosure was immediately at odds with Knowhere’s newest residents, the
Guardians of the Galaxy after a
Skrull attack disabled some of the facilities on Knowhere, and
Drax, the Destroyer, had gone missing. Cynosure was called into action when the Guardians’ associate,
Major Victory, was involved in a scuffle in Knowhere’s marketplace, and she quickly subdued him with a blow from her baton. During the questioning of
Star-Lord and
Quasar, Cynosure dispatched three of her mightiest Luminals to apprehend Drax, but
Brightstorm,
Massdriver and
Impact were sent to the infirmary soon after they confronted the Destroyer. That didn’t stop Cynosure’s pursuit of Drax or the
Skrulls as she led her team into a fight with the Chief of Security on Knowhere,
Cosmo and some of the Guardians of the Galaxy when she found them in the company of a few Skrulls. Almost taking Cosmo out of the fight with her baton, she would soon be surprised when one of the Skrulls selflessly placed himself in harm’s way to protect Cosmo. One massive telekinetic blast later, from an enraged Cosmo, Cynosure, along with the other combatants in the room, had been neutralized. Once she had awakened, Cynosure still found herself at odds with Star-Lord with no end to their bickering in sight.
