Description
Six foot and nine inches of furry biomod. Appearing as a hybrid of a Sabre-toothed tiger and Pit Bull. With a blue piebald merle on white base fur. His head and neck have a heavy feline build to it with large floppy pit bull ears. Despite this, most people peg on the colors and ears at first glance. His 'sabre' canines are much shorter and don't protrude past his lower jaw. Tail is long and fluffy, which confuses Dakota since the biomod wasn't specified for such. Ending up bigger then intended with the ability to shift his bone structure between quad and upright.
Dakota is a Jack-of-All, Master-of-None. Holo tech being the exception.[1]
Dakota has a interest in a lot of things, being what most would call a Generalist. This results in him being willing to draw on a dozen different sources for material. He's fairly laid back with a long fuss on his temper. However he mainly IDs closely with Furries (Art), Supers(City of Heroes, Champions Online and Holo store location, and Warhammer 40k(Tau in Dawn of War games).
Clothing and items
Baggy shorts/pants of different colors, loose tank top or simple shirt with rolled up sleeves and a pair of highly modified sandals. Usually a belt or satchel of many pockets. A bag or two of Beggin' Strips.
Holo Wrist Computer MK II - Functions much like any wrist computer except it's glowing blue interface is completely holographic. Designed to interface wireless with the HUD and sub-vocal comm.[2]
Holo HUD Headband - A thick head band, usually partly hidden by a bandana he tends to wear. It looks similar to the comm collar he wears, but has a flexible holo projection system built into it. Manifests as a blue HUD that covers both eyes. Sometimes only one depending on what he is doing.
Neck sub-vocal comm collar - A device that hooks around the neck and lets the wearer use sub-vocal comm. It is usually wired to the HUD head band.
Face Mask - A armored mask with built in hud that covers his upper head and upper half of his muzzle. Painted with a faded white canine skull on a flat black base.
ID/badge Lanyard Worn around his neck on a simple strap. Nothing fancy other then the RFID chip built into it and glows in the dark.
Weapons
Custom Compound Bow Custom only in scaled to better match Dakota's size and strength. Has built in holo emitter system to generate special effects when the bow is used. His 'main carry' weapon when on duty with the Kandor City Police.[3]
Trick Arrows A selection of non-lethal arrows, mainly designed for disabling people or vehicles.
Zenith 10mm Auto Custom ground up build, based off the Zenith pistol from Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Firing the 10mm Auto and one of Dakota's most expensive weapons. Carried as a sidearm in a thigh holster both on duty and off with the Kandor City Police.[4]
ESWAT assault rifle Hailing from Appleseed: Ex Machina, the shell of this weapon came from a trade Dakota did with another Fen for a Tau Pulse Rifle. Careful waving of the external shell for strength while highly modified internals came from his Tau Pulse rifle spare parts.

Biomod
What happens when a drunk driver leaves you nearly crippled for life?
For Ken Olds that was to draw on his years of wave experience and do the one thing he's managed to avoid. "repair" himself with the wave and purpose built pieces of costume to help give a base. As well as drawing on contacts he's made over the same time to cover his escape from the US aboard the tiny one person Cloudy airship. The trip down to Australia was hard and nearly cost him his life he was attacked by pirates while making a food stop.
Notable Mundane Attributes
Artist: passable 2D artist, not half bad 3D artist.
Cook: passable cook
Gamer: Former MMO and sandbox game junkie
Holo Artist: Had a knack for building holograms and getting the wave to produce holo projectors before his biomod.
Handwavium Abilities
Dance little photons! Dance I say! DANCE!: Very good hologram device builder and artist on the level most require a blue hair/fur day for.
Just a scratch: Dakota has a rather powerful regenerative abilities from his biomod at the cost of having to eat a lot of food after wards.
Dat Nose!: Has a very good sense of smell.
Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger While not a match for very high end cyber mods. He can and does spar with a number on their terms.[5]
Nose to the wind Dakota's bone structure shifts slightly, allowing him to drop to all fours and move. Hands shifting to be more paw-like but still letting him pick things up with reduced dexterity. His shape and gait is much like a felines when doing this.
Quirks
Scoobie Snacks Much like catgirling machine victims and soda, he requires Beggin' Strips in his diet.
Foo Dog Driven to protect Fenkinder and temples if they are in danger. His tail manifests a blue glowing nimbus around the tip. Another glowing nimbus forms along his neck ruff as his eyes glow brightly.
Sam Fisher When lurking in dark areas his eyes glow blue. The darker the area, the brighter the glow.
Which one is which again? From time to time he mixes up his ears.
Mundane Quirks
Zhe Earz - For some reason people like playing with his ears.
Cold nose! - Crowds and going quad doesn't always work out. More so with the high number of people wearing skirts.

Notes
- ↑ Even then the Trekkies can match his efforts through shear numbers of people working together.
- ↑ The Flex Circuit wave mix that makes all three of his worn devices possible is kept close to his chest. He will share it with any AI that asks.
- ↑ Got to keep the 'hero' theme going even thou he doesn't wear a costume.
- ↑ He gets needled for being armed with something that has more power then a .357. At least by those who know what a 10mm Auto is besides sounding bigger then a 9mm.
- ↑ The lack of resilience do to still being a fleshy has caught up to him more then once.
