Sayd is a fictional character in the DC Comics universe. She is one of the Guardians of the Universe. However, where most of the Guardians are very stern "by-the-book" characters, Sayd's sensibilities were more in line with those of Ganthet, himself, a Guardian known for his non-traditional mindset.

[edit] Background

In Green Lantern #150 Kyle Rayner (as Ion) relights the Central Power Battery on Oa and restores the dead Guardians to life. However they were restored as children in a mix of male and female, instead of adult males (their original forms). Sayd was one of the reborn members of the Guardians of the Universe, and one of the few female members of the organization.

[edit] Book of Oa

Sayd read a forbidden chapter from the Book of Oa, which foretold a prophecy of cosmic revelations, "The Blackest Night". When the threat of the Sinestro Corps threatened the entire multiverse, Sayd addressed the incident to her colleagues as a sign from "The Blackest Night". The other Guardians dismissed her concerns and ignored the prophecy assuming it to be folklore. She protests when the other Guardians rewrite the Book of Oa and gets banished from their council with Ganthet for "acting on emotion". She and Ganthet would later appear on Earth, offering Kyle Rayner a new Power Ring, and imprisoning Parallax inside the Earth-based Lanterns' power batteries.

At the end of the Sinestro War, Ganthet and Sayd are currently living on an unknown planet, where they harness the emotional blue energy spectrum of hope and make plans to create another intergalactic police force in preparation of a battle prophesied on the Book of Oa known as "The Blackest Night", and creating blue power rings and batteries. Both Guardians have evolved into two new beings, capable of hope for others and each other, as they are also apparently romantically involved.
