Eventually overwhelmed by a combination of dysphoria and the physical pain of the gemstone in her chest, Taylor reclaimed her true form with the use of a Cyandiian organic device called an ehsar, only to accidentally destroy the ehsar in a surge of anger at her circumstances. Forced to remain in her true nonhuman form among a community that was hostile to differences, Taylor struggled to find a place for herself—but through her girlfriend Kat, she soon made her way to Metropolis and connected with other young women around whom she could be who she was always meant to be.

A chance encounter with the 'Sailor Sentōin' led Taylor to be invited up to the Justice League's orbital Watchtower headquarters during the time of the Oni 'invasion', and she eventually took part in a party congratulating Lara Kent and Yumemi Moroboshi on coming out as women.

• Capsaicin Immunity: Taylor lacks a human-typical response to the chemical compound capsaicin, being capable of drinking bottled hot sauce as readily as water.
• Energy Awareness: by focusing, Taylor can sense and manipulate energetic forces of a planet and its inhabitants, including heat, light, gravity, electricity, sound, qi, and the vibration of movement. She is able to perceive the presence of living beings through barriers and view the meridians and bioelectric makeup of organic beings; with focus, she can use her connection to those energies to boost her strength, manipulate the bodily functions of other beings, and fly.
• Linguistics: Taylor speaks fluent English and Cyandiian.
• Sodium Dependency: Cyandiians in their true forms require higher sodium intake than typical of humans, leading Taylor to need to regularly drink solutions such as pickle brine.
• Superhuman Strength: Taylor's physical strength in her natural form is noticeably higher than the norm for a human of an equivalent physique.
