I'll let you read the description of the team, and their purpose in life, from the link above because I'm not sure I could summarize it. I don't really do cosmic all that well.

Still, it was a pretty nice bit of exposure as Daydreamer had some brief but impactful (at the time, at least) contribution to Spidey's Clone Saga. She was responsible for making the woman who believed she was a clone of Gwen Stacy realise that this was not the case. The scan below is from this Comic Book Resources article about abandoned storylines (file name "sendintheclones8". Good one!).
Apparently, Daydreamer also has the power of instant hair-styling.
As you'll see from the CBR article, that whole thing was pretty much unraveled later and Marvel showed their respect for the character, and their editorial savoir-faire, by botching her name later in Web of Spider-Man #125 in referring to her as Dreamweaver (which, in fairness, is actually a better name). See Jean-Claude Beaubier? It doesn't only happen to you!
The Young Gods continued their sporadic appearances, next showing up in Marvel Comics Presents issues 101 through 109 in 1992. In fact, I believe that's our girl in the box at top left of the cover to #105 (Hmmm...Might have to track those down, since the Wolverine story makes for a fair bit of Can-con...). The team's most recent appearance was in Eternals Annual #1 in 2008.
