Edge was created by [[Cursa]] as the leader of the [[Spark Hunters]], and thus received free will of thinking, allowing her to lead the other Spark Hunters. Using that free will, Edge was able to see the evil inside of Cursa, and about her plan, and thus betrayed Cursa. Edge then tried to change the Spark Hunters for the better, but they turned against her, and remained loyal to Cursa. Edge then left, and traveled throughout the galaxy to save as many Sparks as she could. After her betrayal, Cursa created [[Kanya]] to take her place.

Kanya did not like her position however, and thus she fled to the [[Melodic Gardens]] to create a plot to overthrow Cursa and rule the galaxy herself. | ||

Active weapon | Edge's Technique is Stormblade, an altered version of the Hero Sight Technique that allows Edge to strike at all enemies within a small radius around her when an enemy moves. Active weapon Super Effects will be inflicted onto struck enemies as well. In the "Technique" branch of Edge's Skill Tree are upgrades that increase the damage and range of Stormblade, and allow Edge to gain an additional Stormblade charge, allowing her to strike enemies twice with the Technique. The "Mountain Stance" upgrade gives Edge a 50% damage reduction from all sources while Stormblade is active. Edge holds her Flying Blade while Stormblade is active. Stormblade has a cooldown of three turns, and is the only Technique of all the heroes that has no cooldown upgrades. | ||

Rabbid Mario falls in love with Edge the second he sees her inside the Sunrise Temple. Throughout the entirety of ''Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope'', Rabbid Mario shows his feelings for Edge, such as building a giant snow sculpture of his likeness in Pristine Peaks and declaring that the two of them "make one heck of a team" in Terra Flora. Edge shows annoyance for Rabbid Mario because of his continuous romantic feelings for her | Rabbid Mario falls in love with Edge the second he sees her inside the Sunrise Temple.

Edge shows annoyance for Rabbid Mario because of his continuous romantic feelings for her. Edge still fights alongside Rabbid Mario during their adventure. When the heroes see the [[Wiggler]] chasing the [[Wiggler Train]], Rabbid Mario jumps into Edge's arms in fright, surprising her. At the end of the journey right before the final battle with Cursa, Rabbid Mario claims Edge "nearly fainted at the sight of his enormous biceps" as they fought together. | ||

Another example is in Barrendale Mesa when Beep-0 suggests skipping a Darkmess Puddle, in which Edge replies that they cannot do that. Despite all this, Edge still cooperates with Beep-0. After Edge reveals her backstory at Cursa's Stronghold, Beep-0 declares that the heroes have a hundred reasons to believe Edge, comforting her. When Edge was following the heroes in Beacon Beach, Augie became worried about their safety. After the heroes save Twinkle with the help of Edge, Augie arrives to congratulate them, but becomes shocked to see Edge again (even calling her a Spark Hunter). Edge corrects him, and the heroes continue their adventure. | ||

Being the former leader of the Spark Hunters, Edge still cares about them even after leaving them. Edge briefly tried to turn the other Spark Hunters to become good, but they remained loyal to Cursa as they do not have the free will of thinking that Edge has. Edge shows mercy towards Midnite after the heroes defeat her inside the Winter Palace. hearing of Kanya while in the Melodic Gardens, Edge shows confusion and tells Allegra that all of the Spark Hunters have already been defeated. When she meets Kanya herself, she has no idea who she is, as Kanya was created after Edge left Cursa. Edge works alongside the other heroes to take her down. Unlike the other Spark Hunters, Edge shows no sympathy for Kanya. After Cursa is defeated, Edge tells Rosalina that her "old pals" are still alive and have to look for a different profession. | ||
