Description & History
Aguila is currently a member of the Guardians.

Powers, Abilities, & Equipment
Aguila's main power is that of flight, due to the extremely strong and flexible wings she possesses. She can fly for long distances at about 75 MPH, up to 150 MPH for shorter distances, and can dive at up to 175 MPH. To help her ability to fly, her body has hollow (but strong) bones, and very little body fat. Her eyesight is superhuman in terms of distance recognition, and her skin and lungs are adapted to flying at high altitudes with their chilly temperatures and low oxygen. Besides allowing her to fly, Aguila can use her wings in combat - they are strong enough to break the bones of opponents with a well placed strike.

Her fingernails can extend and retract at will, and are strong enough to use as claws in combat.

Aquila also has various psionic powers, including a 'tracking sense', hypnosis, combat precognition (i..e 'danger sense') and a form of aura reading.

Aquila is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant.

When in costume, she has a pair of tinted goggles she wears to help protect against sun glare, as well as helping to prevent various airborne particles form getting in and irritating her eyes while in flight.
