The Ascendant Drone is a powerful utility-combat droid hybrid housed within a drone-chassis design. Each drone is programmed with a unique and powerful artificial intelligence construct. Constructed from military-grade metals and infused with ascendant crystals, it is capable of firing a powerful beam of pure energy from the composite beam laser array stored beneath the crimson photo-receptor in the middle of the front of the chassis. It uses a myriad of repulsorlift technology to give it immense lift and propulsion capability, allowing it to keep up with a speeder.
Blitz has been fitted with a built-in SCOMP link, allowing this Ascendant Drone to slice into various types of terminals and droids.
Blitz has been modified with a small hidden compartment inside this Ascendant Drone's chassis, allowing it to store items up to the size of a lightsaber hilt.
Blitz has had most of its external components painted black, with accents and trim painted in a gold color. This contrasting paint scheme adds a classy flair to this Ascendant Drone in comparison to that of other droids.
As with any good droid, Blitz likes to assist when and where it can. Most of the time, it quickly flits about performing its duties, with the occasional happy beep, chirp, trill, or whistle - or in silence if the situation calls for it. Other times, this Ascendant Drone makes creative use of its incredible propulsion capabilities to ram into people or things in an attempt to assist when its owner is in a bind. However, that’s not always the best course of action and can have varying results depending on the makeup of what it collides with, potentially damaging itself in the process.
This Ascendant Drone has had an advanced shield disruptor installed on its chassis, allowing Blitz to disrupt various shields and pass through them unscathed.
