* LetsGetDangerous: She is the most powerful magically on the team but her lack of confidence and fear about her magic's side effects means she doesn't always use her full strength. When she decides to put away her guns and stop holding back she is able to CurbStompBattle some of the minor antagonists. Her full power is even on par with the Reapers, enough to finish off and defeat Silver all by herself. Forge notes that her power could possibly rival his own.
