History:
(Son of Satan I#4 (fb) - BTS) - Amelia "Amy" Sefton took a job at District University (in Washington D.C.) as a compu-librarian, which required her to sift through computer data and provide printouts for her boss, Brian Anderson. Amelia also took a period dance class and regularly showed up to work in old-fashioned gowns, which she grew to believe that the computer appreciated.

(Son of Satan I#4) - Amelia retrieved some printouts for Brian, who commented on how strange her clothing choices were. Brian explained that he had hired a consultant, Daimon Hellstrom, to do research for the university, and Brian believed the fate of the new parapsychology department would rest on Hellstrom's determinations. Brian asked Amelia to act as a "consulting diagnostician" with Hellstrom, though Amelia realized that Brian was in part asking her to act as a spy for him.

(Son of Satan I#5 (fb) - BTS) - Amelia got word that an explosion had hit campus and a student, Michael Taine, had been found dead in some bizarre circumstances with Hellstrom.

(Son of Satan I#6) - After checking on his well-being, Amelia invited Hellstrom, who was with Saripha Thames, to a meeting with Dr. Anderson. During the meeting, the group were all psychically attacked by Mindstar, and to Amelia, sensitive to psychic stimuli, the pain was overwhelming. After the attack stopped, the group woke up and checked on each other. Soon, Hellstrom battled Mindstar, changing into his heroic form of Son of Satan. Amelia was taken hostage by Mindstar, who soon flew high in the air and dropped Amelia. Son of Satan caught her, but then grew furious when Mindstar got away and he struck Amelia for distracting him. Son of Satan tried explaining, but Amelia refused to forgive him, though he did cure her headache with his healing touch afterward.

(Son of Satan I#7 (fb) - BTS) - Amelia opened up to Saripha about her fears of Hellstrom.
