Unlike the other playable Rabbids, she is not based on a character from the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, instead possessing spiky black and green hair and wearing a jacket, along with black fingerless gloves and black and green boots. She wields the [[Flying Blade]], a large sword with two rabbit ear-like protrusions on the tip of the blade.<ref name=Gold/> Her [[Stormblade]] [[Technique]] will damage any enemy that moves, similar to [[Hero Sight]] and [[Hero Sight|Steely Stare]], as well as all enemies within Edge's range. She can also [[Dash (Mario + Rabbids series)|Dash]] enemies up to four times in one turn.<ref> https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/mario-rabbids/sparks-of-hope/news-updates/54KqtyUg25UlrGQ20LC0ga/mario-rabbids-sparks-of-hope-a-deep-dive-into-combat-and-hero-archetypes </ref> Edge, along with the [[Spark (Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope)|Spark]] [[Exosphere]] both join the heroes at the start of the [[Beacon Beach]] battle [[Driven to the Edge]]. Her name is a pun on "edgy," a term often used to mock characters and works viewed as taking excessive yet ultimately ineffectual measures to appeal to older male audiences, tying in with her punk-inspired design and characterization.

At Cursa's stronghold, a [[Darkmess]] copy of Edge is fought, known as [[Darkmess Edge]]. Beep-0 and JEANIE become worried, but Edge declares that Cursa does not know her at all. After the battle, Edge confesses that she was created by Cursa, and that she was formerly the leader of the Spark Hunters. She did not tell the others because she thought that they would not have a reason to believe her, but Beep-0 tells her that they have many reasons, with JEANIE even declaring that Edge is part of their family. Rabbid Peach, Rabbid Luigi and Rabbid Mario offer support ans well. Edge thanks everyone, and they head out to stop Cursa.

In [[The Last Spark Hunter]] DLC, Edge joins the other heroes on their mission to save the Melodic Gardens after learning the planet has gone silent. Upon meeting the warden of the planet, [[Allegra]], she tells everyone that Kanya, a former leader of the Spark Hunters is attacking the planet. Confused, Edge then proclaims that all of the Spark Hunters have already been defeated. Upon meeting Kanya herself, who expresses her enjoyment about meeting the heroes, Edge sternly points out that she has never heard of her before. After Kanya is defeated and the Melodic Gardens are saved, Edge and the others set out to Cursa's stronghold.
