He stands at 6'2 and has a brown faux hawk. He has a beard that is cut short and lines his chin. He has piercing green eyes and a muscular physique. He weighs 190 pounds and is extremely well built.

Background: He is of native American and Spanish descent, but has startling green eyes. He grew up in a military family in Mississippi. He is extremely intelligent and graduated high school five years early. He then enrolled in college and earned a mechanical engineering degree. During his years in college he met and fell in love with a girl name Rosalie. She was a missionary and traveled the world to help spread the word of god. Dylan is an atheist, but quickly fell in love with her, however She rejected him for an infantry man. He has never really moved on and enlisted in the military as a way to cope with his heartache. He was 18 when enlisted in the military and achieved the rank of 1st lieutenant. He was immediately found for his intelligence and put into the mechanized infantry program where he showed enormous potential. He ended up graduating top of his class and specializes in medium class bipedal mechs. Soon after he was given his own mech and put into the rapid reaction force. For the last year he has been working with them and due to his actions and how new he is he has earned the nickname "Hero". This was given to him in a joking manner due to his actions saving his teammates in a simulated battle. He showed disregard for the well being of himself and his mech in order to save the rest of the squadron and their heavy mech patton in the simulation. This has led many to call him "Hero", and the nickname stuck with him due to his lack of experience and being so new to the unit. However do not be fooled, he may be inexperienced, but what he lacks in combat time he makes up for with intelligence, bravery, and natural talent.

[b]mech aesthetics and background:[/b] 
Literally his first mech and his all time favorite. She(YES he actually refers to the mech as she)sports a black and red paint job with roses on the shoulders. She has the words ACTA NON VERBA painted along the arms in gold. There is a picture of a red rose on her assault rifle. The mech is piloted using two flightsicks as well as multiple buttons, and on the inside of the cockpit he has a picture of a missionary girl he loves named Rosalie(hence his mech's name)
