Biography

Elizabeth Grant is the younger child of a speedster from Portland, Oregon. Like her father and older brother, Red Rush, she was born with the innate ability to run at superhuman speeds and, when she was old enough to start her career, joined her father as his sidekick, the Blue Blitz. While she never was (and still isn't) as fast as either of her older relatives, she made up for it with boundless energy and a desire to be the best hero that she could be. Together, they fought the small-time criminals that cropped up throughout the area, including their father's nemesis, the sinister Speed Demon.

Everything changed, though, when Speed Demon and her father fought in an epic confrontation that ended with her father dead. Stricken with grief, and the realization that the fights they were fighting were very, very real, Elizabeth sunk into a fit of depression, putting aside the hero life for years while she struggled with the loss of her father. It was during that time that her mother uprooted the family and moved them to the newly-constructed Millennium City, seeking a new start in a new city for her and her children.

Over time, Elizabeth began to return to her old self, tempered by the experience with Speed Demon and her father, and even put back on the tights and got back to fighting crime. Blue Blitz hit the streets of Millennium City with the same exuberance that defined her sidekick career, helping to stem the tide of the growing gang influences and even developing her own gallery of small-time villains that she's bothered time and time again. She's more careful than she was before, though, less willing to take big risks, a leftover from dealing with the death of her father.

In the present day, Elizabeth's main struggle is in splitting her time between her personal life and her hero life, balancing school and her job as a paper delivery girl with fighting crime. It's becoming more and more common to see the Blue Blitz speeding down the streets, though, as Elizabeth approaches the end of her school life and prepares to throw herself completely into the hero business.
