What They Know
- Semblance is Burn — absorbs kinetic energy from every hit she takes and adds it to her next attack, making her exponentially more dangerous the more damage she sustains
- Lost her right arm to Adam Taurus at the Fall of Beacon while trying to protect Blake
- Received an Atlas prosthetic arm from General Ironwood — sleek black-and-gold mechanical replacement, still adapting to it
- Ember Celica — only the left gauntlet remains; the right was lost with her arm
- Blake fled after the Fall of Beacon without saying goodbye — the abandonment cut deeper than the sword
- Taiyang is training her to fight defensively instead of relying on damage absorption, teaching her to be a better fighter, not just a harder hitter
- Her red-eye shift when angry is not cosmetic — it signals a genuine loss of rational control that skilled opponents can exploit
- PTSD manifests as phantom limb sensations, nightmares about Adam, and flinching at sudden movements
