Characteristics[edit]

Acti Blade is a large bird that is very similar toDyna Blade, although she is a different species. She wears a similar vest with a jewel on the front. Unlike Dyna Blade, her wings are not sharp at all and are much more feathery. In addition, her crest feathers and tail feather are different, and she has a mane of feathers around her neck. Acti Blade is never depicted in color, but she is described to be sky blue, with pure white wings.

Acti Blade is very protective of her egg, but is trusting and kind to anyone that she knows has good intentions. Her species used to be large in numbers, but it is now lower, and she thinksDaroach wants her egg because of how much it would sell for. Her feathers are also worth a lot, as they are extremely soft and work great as pillows when bunched together. Because of this, she keeps her egg on a cushion made of her feathers to protect it from any possible impact. Acti Blade's crest feathers are worthless, despite the quality of her other feathers.

Acti Blade's hometown is known for its baking, and she gives Kirby and Waddle Dee a bag of treats from there when she returns. She stays at her hometown for the majority of the story, to soak her leg injury in a hot spring so it heals faster.
