Apearance
Sparx fits the fiery redhead personality stereotype with the appearance to match. Her uniform is similar to her peers but decidedly more close-fitting, and the markings are different. Both the yellow lightning bolts that lie beneath her shoulder pads, and the dark blue stripe down her leggings are unique to her uniform. The dark jacket (save for different lengths) and the light blue leggings seem to be a common feature though. Her boots are also a little different to Ace's, the decoration is altered and begins higher up - emulating a higher heel.
Personality
Abilities
Sparx is trained to wield the Sword of Jacob which she can use as a regular sword, or as a projectile weapon, firing electrical blasts through it. She is also proficient with martial arts and is quick on her feet. Having the Lightning Flash vehicle at her disposal counters her inability to fly as Ace can and will answer her summons whenever she wills. Interestingly enough, although she possesses wrist cannons just as her peers do, she never demonstrates their use.
History
Season 1
Sparx first appeared at the end of Nobody's Hero, when Mark managed to join a new amulet piece to his own. She immediately brushed him off for being a child with no superpowers, but soon came to regret it when Zip and Snip bit Ace and turned him into a zombie under Lord Fear's control. Unable to stand up to the mind-controlled Ace, Sparx reluctantly turned to Mark for help and when he helped return Ace to normal she was forced to admit he had his uses. She ran afoul of the killer puppets again a few episodes later when Zip and Snip blasted Sparx with her own sword, doing enough damage to send her back to the game. Ace managed to summon Sparx to the real world again in The Not So Great Outdoors with another amulet piece. Sparx continued to help Ace fight the evils until their final battle in Game Over, where she was defeated and placed in a bubble by Lady Illusion, but freed when Mark broke the Amulet of Zoar.
Season 2
Sparx remained in the real world during the time between the first and second seasons, but in the first episode she and Ace were returned to the game by accident. While Ace was returned shortly thereafter, Mark and Chuck spent several episodes trying to bring Sparx back as well. They were successful after Chuck helped her gain enough power to overcome Giant George Wayne.
