**Name**: Dakota Range
**Age**: 16
**Gender**: Male
**Race**: Human
**Weapon**: *Desert Storm* - A pair of gloves with revolving bracers which create enough motion to spin enemies on contact, much like a tornado touching the ground. However, given the amount of energy being produced by the rotation, Dakota doesn't need to strike with much force. Stored within the bracers are several vials of Dust, which can be released for creating mountainous amounts of sand upon tightly clenching his fists. Snapping deactivates the weapon, so that he doesn't accidentally create desert dunes or push someone off of Beacon.
**Specialty**: *Six Feet Above* - Fighting alone, Dakota pushes his enemies back into tight corners where he then proceeds to bury his enemies In team fights, he prefers weakening the enemy's defenses by stunning them with massive winds and sand blasts so that his teammates can finish the job.
**Semblance**: *Architecture* - Dakota is capable of manipulating raw materials to build structures with his aura, requiring time for larger more complex structures. He can easily manipulate the materials to form simple shapes and prisms for defensive capabilities.

He will try to sweet talk his way into anything, and with his dashing looks and sweet, sultry voice, it's hard to resist.
