Background
While working on a project for the Faultline dam, hydrologist Garrett Reinhardt discovered a conspiracy to contaminate the city's water supply. While the police concluded that the perpetrators were Arachnos, given their frequent attacks on the dam, Garrett believed someone else was behind it all and began his own investigation. Unfortunately, he proved to be a little too good of an investigator. After his usual evening run, Garrett settled in for a long bath and a restful night. However, someone had tapped into his water main and attempted to drown him with compressed water in an attempt to make it look like he drown in his tub. Fortunately, a combination of those chemicals, a protective substance he used in his research, and a highly elevated electrolyte count produced an unexpected result. He not continues his search as Hydroblitz, master manipulator of water.

Powers
Hydro Manipulation
Aggie's mutant abilities grant her the ability to manipulate the temperature of people and things towards sub-zero levels. She can make it snow all around her of freeze someone in a block of solid ice. Since she's gotten to Paragon, her powers have been developing at a rapid pace. A little faster than Aggie would like. This does mean that she doesn't often have the best control over what she can do...yet.
Kinetic Manipulation
This is not so much weather manipulation as a combination of telekineticlly controlling the air/water she freezes. She's learned rather quickly to create cold gusts of air and freeze the moisture around areas to create freezing rain. Like her cryogenic powers, these abilities have developed at an exponential rate since her arrival. Something that has frightened her a little since she does not want to lose control over such potentially damaging abilities.
Super Speed
Out of all the powers she developed, Aggie was overjoyed when she learned she could actually fly on gusts of cold air. She spent days mastering this ability and is the one thing she loves to do when she's not out saving the city.
