## Appearance

Alden is a young, light skinned female with auburn hair and blue eyes. She normally wears a tan, drop-shoulder sweater, black pants, and black running shoes with white socks. Underneath her sweater, she wears a white long-sleeved shirt.

As a joke, RampGroovesFighter says she will at some point wear an outfit similar to Barton's.

## Background

* Before BLITZ Team: Elemental Heat, Alden joins the ASSD in hopes of being a role model to her schoolmates. During her time there, she meets and trains with Captain Deckerburg, though before BLITZ Team: Elemental Heat, she is never mentioned by him. In a short amount of time, she excelled in her assignments and became just as successful and honorable as Barton.
* During BLITZ Team's second season, it is implied she will become the new main protagonist, and replace Barton as he continues to further develop his career in ASSD by helping Captain Deckerburg start a new unit.

## Personality

Alden is a sweet, caring, thoughtful person with a personality similar to Barton's. She is unafraid to die protecting her friends and family, and she absolutely loves cadets. Alden knows when it's time to get serious, and she is almost always unfazed by personal insults, even straight to her face.

## Capabilities

Alden knows a lot of traditional BLITZ attacks, and just like her co-specimens, she is extremely strong and agile. She moves with the BLITZ Seraph's trademark speed, grace and power, creating hard-hitting attacks with deadly accuracy.

- BLITZ Blade / Alden can create Energy "blades" on her wrists, each one being about twelve feet in length, then slash at the opponent with them.

- BLITZ Shunt / Alden can create an Energy sphere, varying in size and power, which can be thrown at the opponent. (Read more here)

- BLITZ Arrow / Alden can spray shards of Energy at the opponent.

- BLITZ Twister / Alden can stretch her arms out in a "T" pose, then leap into the air, spinning rapidly, and hurtle herself headfirst towards the opponent.

- BLITZ Laser / Alden can push her wrists together, with her knuckles facing away from eachother, to create a high-intensity laser. This laser varies power and size depending on the effort put forth.

- BLITZ Shield / Alden can create a thick, powerful semi-transparent forcefield around herself, to prevent damage to herself from enemy attacks. Multiple shields can be applied at once, depending on Barton's Energy level. In an intense battle, Alden may apply several at once.

	+ RampGroovesFighter says she will continue to train Ward in the same way Barton did.
	+ Despite popular belief, Alden and Kylee do not have feelings for each other, as they are both straight girls and Kylee is only attracted to Barton.
* Alden's ex-husband, Taylor, filed for divorce after he learned of her secret identity as a creature.
	+ Alden is still quite upset about the divorce.
	+ Despite this, Taylor, as stated by RampGroovesFighter, "is not necessarily a bad person."
* Alden's current mile time is 6m even. She is working hard to improve this time.
* Alden doesn't want to have children, as she is afraid of something bad potentially happening to them.
* Alden is a lot more emotional than Barton, often hiding it. She hides her emotions well.
* Cathie doesn't seem to be afraid of Alden in quite the same way as she was with Barton.
* Alden apparently gets a lot of comments about being "too sexy for ASSD," which she doesn't like but tolerates.
	+ This may be due to the fact that she is a BLITZ Seraph, and according to RthoNightshade07, "BLITZ Seraphs are naturally hot."
* According to RampGroovesFighter, Alden "will never completely replace the role of Barton" in the show.
* Alden has five major military achievements, including:
	+ Three "Silver Diamond" awards, given for success in high-risk missions.
	+ A "Dezimond Star" award, given for "Mission Leader Of The Year".
	+ A "Redwater" achievement for promoting to 1st Lieutenant, her current rank and the final rank for Captain.
		- Apparently, Barton was there to witness her acquisition of all of these, and he nominated her for the Dezimond Star award.
* Alden apparently likes to be kissed, but she will wait for someone else to try to kiss her first.
	+ RampGroovesFighter says this is because she doesn't want to "put a hole in her reputation as an officer" by trying to kiss someone who doesn't want to be kissed.
	+ Even though Alden is straight, RampGroovesFighter says she will take kisses from females as well as males. This is because to Alden, kisses are platonic, and meant to signify trust and friendship.
	+ She apparently even kissed Barton once.

* Alden appears to be slightly on the chubby side, yet RampGroovesFighter says this is how she was born and she is actually not at all overweight. She is still quite strong and has all the normal BLITZ Seraph capabilities.
* Alden frequently experiences back pain and sometimes shoulder pain, but not due to poor posture. RthoNightshade07 suggested this may be due to her moderately-sized breasts.
* Alden's signature move in combat is jumping off of a wall and tackling the opponent.
