Abilities and Powers
Classified as a Breaker 9, Dorothy can transform into a horrifying monster when unseen. This is summed up by Tattletale as an inversion of the Manton Effect, though she admits that it is not an accurate description<ref name="7.9">Buzz 7.9</ref>. Whenever Night reverts back to her human form she is instantly "healed", effectively "resetting" any damage she takes and restorring her to a "pristine" condition<ref name="Cast1">Cast (spoiler free)</ref>.
Breaker Form
Her monster form has enhanced speed, strength, and durability and is composed largely of sharp edges and to many insect like legs. As official sources describe it, Night can transform into a "powerful four-dimensional entity"<ref name="list"> Wildbow's Parahuman List</ref> when unobserved. But does not elaborate if it is psychological or some form of the Observer effect<ref name="Explanation">The What?</ref>.
Equipment
As her transformation only occurs when she is unseen, she uses an assortment of tools to blind her foes, including flashbangs, smoke canisters, and a large black removable cloak, embedded with mini-hooks on the outside, designed to cover and catch on her enemies, essentially a net.<ref name="15.1">Colony 15.2</ref>
