Huang Pao-Lin is a highly-trained, acrobatic martial artist with the ability to generate and absorb electricity. Both of these skills serve her well as Dragon Kid, one of the youngest Heroes of Stern Bild's HeroTV show.

Additional T&B-related stuff I use in playing Pao-Lin aside from, y'know, the actual series. For example, we have the drama CDs:

✼ 5th Drama CD - New Duo: Rose & Dragon!
✼ 7th Drama CD - Monthly Hero
✼ 9th Drama CD - Kaede's Research Project: Our Heroes
✼ T&B sideBUNNY Drama CD - Suppose The Heroes Were a Family #1: We've Got a Pet!
✼ T&B sideTIGER Drama CD - Suppose the Heroes Were a Family #2
✼ T&B: The Beginning Drama CD - Protecting the People Alone Does Not a Hero Make

And the animated specials:

✼ sideBUNNY special
✼ sideTIGER special

A couple of other things:

✼ Age guessing/confirmation - A note from some character sheets seems to confirm Pao-Lin as 13 in the first half of the series, and 14 for the second half (and likely 15 by the end of things).
✼ Tiger & Bunny series timeline @ This Is Sternbild
✼ Tiger & Bunny Helpful Links has downloads for the Newtype Ace (NTA) manga as well as the Miracle Jump (MJ) manga (along with a lot of other T&B-related goodies). The NTA serialization is a retelling of the series, with some details added or changed around based on discarded ideas from the original anime (it's better than it sounds), while the MJ serialization is wholly original stories written by Erika Yoshida, a screenwriter for the original anime as well as the Hero's Day PSP game. You can also find the MJ manga scanslated on MangaDex, with chapters 13 and up scanslated by yours truly!
✼ Heroes Column Card: Dragon Kid
