Kendra Saunders, Hawkgirl, is the reincarnation of Shrra, an angel cursed by her God to reincarnate across space and time alongside Kthar Deathbringer, who now combats evil as Hawkman.

It can absorb energy attacks and be used to strike back with the same power[5]), Regeneration (Low-Mid. Carter Hall's body heals faster thanks to the Nth Metal's properties, quickly healing all wounds he'd suffered at the hands of Hawkwoman, and Kendra should share this ability as it is bestowed by his Nth Metal[6]), Vibration Manipulation (Nth Metal can cause shockwaves when clashing with other Nth Metal[7]), limited Physics Manipulation (Structures built of Nth Metal are said to defy the laws of physics[8]), Non-Physical Interaction (Nth Metal can hurt ghosts[9]), Invulnerability Negation (Nth Metal is one of the only things that can nullify the invulnerability of Dark Multiverse beings[10]), Regeneration Nullification (High-Mid. The Nth metal prevented some alien creatures from regenerating, whereas previously they could grow back from just a detached head.[11] This nullification happens on the cellular level[12]), Limited Power Nullification (Nth Metal caused Morphicius' teleportation to fail, and then he used it to hinder Katar's flight abilities[12]. It also cancelled a century-long spell[13]), Limited Empowerment (The Nth Metal armor allowed Katar Hol to fight even when he'd otherwise collapse[14]. It is also the source of Hawkgirl's superhuman strength), Resistance to Poison Manipulation, Mind Manipulation and Morality Manipulation (Hawkgirl overcame a dose of Joker's venom[15]. Carter's Nth Armor slowed down the effect of The Batman Who Laughs's venom meant to turn him evil[16] by suppressing his consciousness in favor of Sky Tyrant's[17] and eventually overpowered it[18]), Disease Manipulation (Former incarnations of Hawkgirl as well as Hawkman's were immune to the plague[18]), Life Manipulation and Absorption (Absorbing Hawkgirl's life essence is painful and difficult because of the Nth Metal's properties[11][12].
