Reyna powers include:
 * Telumkinesis: As a daughter of Bellona, Reyna is a natural weapons expert, understanding how to use weapons faster than most other demigods, and may have some degree of magical control over them.
 * Empowerment: Reyna can share her strength and courage with others, as she does multiple times with Nico in The Blood of Olympus. But she does not like to do so, since Reyna feels they will think that she is controlling them. It is more effective in large groups. As a side-affect, she feels any emotions of those she grants strength to. Her tattoo glows and burns when she uses this ability. It doesn't say she can borrow strength, just take strength. We can't assume someone can do something if they haven't done it before. If you say Reyna can borrow strength, then Percy should be able to bloodbend.
