## Physical appearance

When she disguised herself as Batwoman, she wore a black balaclava with bat ears that obscured her face. She wore a red wig, black bat suit and red bat insignia and belt. She masked her identity well, as only Kara was able to tell Kate was Batwoman when she used her X-Ray vision on her.

Additionally, Kate has several tattoos and Kate implies to Kara that she has one hidden in an undisclosed area.
