Combat Tactics: Nautica's preferred environment is the water, but she's still a very capable combatant whether it be on land or in the water. She's normally hold an action, giving her time to evaluate her opponent before striking. When she does strike, it's usually in the form of some sort of special attack designed to quickly incapacitate her target. If possible, she'll use her net to restrict their movements before moving in to "finish them off". 

Personality/Character Traits: She has a bit of a superior attitude, due to her royal upbringing, and it tends to rub her teammates the wrong way. She’s having problems trying to adapt Earth‘s to customs, and as a result she tends to come off as being cold and aloof.

The field is strong enough to cause physical damage to objects coming in contact with it.

For as long as she can remember she's wanted to follow in her parent’s footsteps, and become a superhero, no matter how hard her parents have tried to dissuade her. Her father's injuries, and recent retirement, have only made her pursue her goal even harder. Other than Will Scarlet, Blitz has been with the group the longest. Her brother, the sometimes hero Turbo, is also reserve member of the team.

Combat Tactics: Blitz will normally zip in and out of a fight, picking off targets around the edge of the battle, and providing support to anyone who needs it.
