HISTORY
Until Mystery came to the Knight Academy, no one had
really ever heard anything about him. Someone in the
upper echelons of the management of the school must
know the score because they’ve allowed him to enroll.
He has taken the name Robert Cobb, but it isn’t his
birth name. None of his classmates have any idea that
the identity is a fake. Anyone who chose to dig
deeper into his files would find he has no school
records or medical history. He is, as his codename
implies, a mystery.
Though he is a member of Young Justice, he is their
secret weapon. He does not appear in publicity photos
or deal with the authorities. His powers make him
ideal for infiltration, and he can be a very big
surprise to super-villains who have no idea the team
includes someone with his abilities. Since this works
well for all involved, no one has had a problem with
his “mysterious” status, so far.
POWERS
Mystery can turn his body into a cloud of particles
resembling a smoke or mist. While in this form, he
cannot be touched, though he can be dispersed by
strong enough winds, and he can shape it to any form
he wishes, becoming small enough to filter thru a
ventilation system or large enough to cover a baseball
diamond in concealing fog. He may also fly.
While solid, Mystery can lift heavy objects and
withstand quite a bit of damage, though his power
level is not quite at Kryptonian level.
He has been shown, in both forms, to be able to emit a
burst of hellish flames from his eyes, though he is
hesitant to use this power as it is both blatantly
obvious (hence, contrary to his purpose on the team)
and also an exceptionally-frightening sight (and he
has no desire to alienate his teammates).
Mystery has been known to have bouts of weakness, but
no one has yet determined what the cause of this
weakness is, as no common factors have come to light
in these episodes.
