Psyche Mother (Empath stories)

The Psyche Mother is a character who is part of the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series. She is a Smurf who like the Psyche Master also possessed telepathic and telekinetic abilities, but unlike him did not seek to control the Smurf Village with those abilities. However, when the Psyche Master left the village to create his own village of beings with the same abilities, she also left with him, seeking to comfort him during his quest. However, over the years as he grew into the role of the Psyche Master, he became distant from her and she sought refuge by herself in her own special temple away from the Psyche Master's, and is often referred to as the Psyche Mother, wearing a burka-like outfit on the rare occasion that she ever appears in public.

The Psyche Mother's role in Empath's life in Psychelia was that she secretly nurtured him between the time his memory was erased as an infant and sometime before his "day of emergence" 50 years later. Empath's memory of the Psyche Mother was blanked so that he would have no memory of her, but a suggestion was planted in his brain by her just in case anything would happen to her. Sometime after Empath's final return to the Smurf Village from Psychelia, he sought out the Psyche Mother when she had left Psychelia and saw that she was going to end her life, realizing that she no longer had any purpose in Psychelia now that Empath was no longer a part of it.
