She is considered the Paladin of Optimism, which shows through her belief in the good of other people.

Fire
Unlike the other Paladins, Blaze has a "basic" element of fire. As a Paladin however, she has no limit as to how powerful and flexible her flame skills could be.

Aside from summoning flame-based attacks, she can also use fire to propel herself upward and learns how to breathe fire.

Trivia

 * Because the character concepts were made before being assigned "Paladin Colors", some Paladins have been switched around. Rina was originally the Yellow Paladin, and Blaze was originally the Orange Paladin.
 * Throughout the variations of DOTS: DR, Blaze has gone through the most changes. Her hair had always varied in short hairstyles, was put into a long ponytail at some point, changed skin, hair, and eye colors, and had even changed body type as she was initially meant to be small and lanky but was changed to be one of the tallest and more bulky Paladins. Her personality had also changed drastically, as she was initially more reasonable and soft but became more reckless and tough to be less of a carbon copy of Rina. Her job also switched from being a waitress at Vanilla Cream Cafe to being a full-on tournament fighter.
 * Mana has claimed Blaze is the Fun Ghoul to Ruby's Party Poison. She also mentions that "Blaze is the personification of Arson".
 * Blaze's Paladin Virtue switched from Happiness, Bravery, to eventually Optimism.
 * Ironically, a scrapped idea was that Blaze looked up to Ruby for her optimism.
 * Blaze plays guitar in Prism Prison, since Ruby is busy doing vocals.
 * Blaze's character inspiration includes Rouge the Bat and Yang Xiao Long.
