They all have the ability to regenerate body parts or shape their own bodies. Their bodies themselves are made of the element they command. The Earth, Fire, and Metal Mystics are voiced by\u00a0Sean Schemmel, the Wind and Water Mystics by Brian Maillard in the\u00a02003 TV series.2003 Series<\/p>\n<p>It is seen in the series that the Mystics are powerful enough to even outmatch the\u00a0Ninja Tribunal. They are called &#8220;Heralds of the Shredder&#8221; because they were loyal servants of the true\u00a0Demon Shredder. They were first seen in the series as guards of the\u00a0Utrom Shredder\u00a0because they were being controlled by the\u00a0Heart of Tengu. This artifact is demonic and holds the commands of the Mystics. The Utrom\u00a0Shredder\u00a0somehow knew this and took advantage of it. In &#8220;Return to New York, Part 2&#8221;, the Mystics awaken when the TMNT and Splinter attempt to infiltrate the Utrom Shredder&#8217;s tower. The Mystics outmatched the TMNT, until Splinter used the\u00a0Sword of Tengu\u00a0against their foes, using the elements the Mystics were composed of against each other.<\/p>\n<p>In the episode &#8220;Bad Day&#8221;, it is revealed that the Foot Mystics have Black Magic powers, when they launch an attack against the\u00a0Turtles\u00a0on an astral plane. It is also said the Utrom Shredder had more respect for their power than Karai, but she repeatedly tells them that as long as she had the medallion, they will obey her with no questions asked. But it did not take long after their mistreatment at the hands of Karai that they became more determined to free themselves and after tricking the\u00a0EPF, and the TMNT by proxy, into stealing the artifact, while the Mystics themselves allowed the TMNT to pass into the new Foot Tower. The Mystics broke free of the Utrom Shredder&#8217;s grip when\u00a0Baxter Stockman\u00a0destroyed the artifact and began to attempt and resurrect the true demon Shredder. When freed the Mystics were able to revert back to their true forms and were shown to be far more powerful then previously shown.<\/p>\n<h3>The Lost Episodes<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIABAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAEALAAAAAABAAEAQAICTAEAOw%3D%3D\" alt=\"\" \/><\/h3>\n<p>Despite their fanatical devotion to the demon Shredder, they were still abused by him for so much as saying anything he felt was out of line. Especially when they plead for their master to kill Karai for &#8220;stealing&#8221; his mantle, which doesn&#8217;t concern him the least, much to their displeasure. It was later revealed in the episode &#8220;Fathers &amp; Sons&#8221; that they were disgusted at serving Ch&#8217;rell and hatched a plot to resurrect there master by using an invisible bone demon to gather the helmet, gauntlet and body from the &#8220;Ninja Tribunal&#8221;, but it was defeated by Master Splinter and the Ancient One. It was also revealed that the Mystics at some point in time sent out there demon servants to steal the gauntlet and helmet from the Tribunal and when they arrived in\u00a0Japan\u00a0they found their servants defeated by the new\u00a0acolytes\u00a0of the &#8220;Ninja Tribunal&#8221;, who were in fact the\u00a0Turtles\u00a0and 4 other brave warriors chosen by the tribunal. After a massive attack on the\u00a0Lap of the Gods, the Mystics succeeded in recovering the Demon Shredder&#8217;s helmet, gauntlet and body and eventually revived the true Shredder. They are eventually killed in &#8220;Enter the Dragons, Part 1&#8221; by the Turtles, which the Demon Shredder anticipated, especially since they plan to abandon their master to settle their grudge against Karai.<\/p>\n<h3>Fast Forward<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIABAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAEALAAAAAABAAEAQAICTAEAOw%3D%3D\" alt=\"\" \/><\/h3>\n<p>In the\u00a0Fast Forward\u00a0episode\u00a0<em>The Journal<\/em>,\u00a0the Metal Mystic in his original form\u00a0appeared before\u00a0Raphael\u00a0andCasey Jones\u00a0and teleported them to a deserted island in one of the pages of Casey and\u00a0April&#8217;s journal that the Turtles were reading despite Splinter and Cody&#8217;s warnings not to read it. However, this particular event was a complete fabrication by Master\u00a0Splinter\u00a0and\u00a0Cody\u00a0in order to teach the Turtles a lesson, though this was only because the former got tired by the end.<\/p>\n<h2>Abilities<\/h2>\n<p>The\u00a0Metal Mystic, who controls metal can form blades that can stab or tear enemies asunder.
