Explanation of the conversion:
History: Created by the Enclave using the same process that spawned
Adam Warlock. They named their creation Paragon. After destroying thier
citidel Paragon retreated into a cocoon (Incredible Hulk Annual #6).
She emerged later in a female form called Her. The being known as Her tried to
resurrect Warlock, the only man worthy of being her mate. Warlock's soul
stubbornly refused to return to his revived body, leaving Her heartbroken
and inconsolable (Marvel Two-In-One #61-62).
Her wandered the universe for
some years. While exploring space, she stumbled upon a world ruled by an
authoritarian dictator whom she helped overthrow (Marvel Comics Presents
#35).
However, the leader had business connections with the alien
Consortium, who were extremely displeased with what Kismet had done. They
decided to eliminate her and chased her to earth where she landed in
Toronto. Once there, Alpha Flight decided to protect her but was unprepared
for how seriously the Consortium was taking the matter. They were finally
able to resolve the matter when, after half of the team, along with several
Avengers were transported to another dimension to face Galactus, used him to
defeat the Consortium (Alpha Fight #97-100).
Her then discovered that
Warlock had resurrected again, this time with soul in place. However,
Warlock refused to father Her's offspring. Miffed at his rejection, and
feeling a strong urge to procreate, Her tested several of the champions of
Earth, and choose Quasar III, Hercules, Wonder Man, Hyperion, Doc Samson and
Gilgamesh all to father her children using reproductive pods. Quasar III
talked her out of forcing them to father her children, but she settled on
Quasar III as her ideal mate, much to his chagrin (Quasar #27-29).
Convinced it
was her destiny to follow Quasar III across the Universe and beyond, Her
renamed herself Kismet and proceeded to embarrass Quasar III by dogging his
footsteps. Seriously wounded in a battle with Quasar III's
Star-Brand-wielding girlfriend, Kayla, Kismet involuntarily retreated into a
life-sustaining cocoon. When she emerged, she healed members of the Enclave
by encasing them in cocoons, accidentally turning them into cosmic beings.
During Operation Galatic Storm she battled Starbolt (Quasar #33),
the Super-Skrull and Binary (Quasar #34).
Kismet ended up fighting Quasar III's girlfriend Kayla Balentine, who weilded the power of the Star Brand, over him (Quasar #49).
Trivia: In the alternate future the Guardians of the Galaxy come from Kismet and Quasar III are the parents to the Guardian called Starhawk.
Powers: Kismet can channel cosmic power through her body. Kismet can
survive in space and is capable of firing bolts of cosmic energy from her
hands. She can rearrange matter and fly at great speeds.
