personality
Though for the most part she tries to keep an optimistic outlook on the world, Dakota often finds herself plagued by sour moods. Once a master of sarcasm and sass, losing her voice has reduced her methods of snark to glaring angrily at people who offend her, and perhaps kicking them in the shins (as that tends to be all she can reach). When not feeling murderous, Dakota can actually be quite pleasant and even sweet. In such cheerful states, she will, if possible, play some sort of music. Creating sound is her passion, though only since losing her voice has she picked up other forms of music besides singing, and so is somewhat abysmal at it. Though it does not bother her much, her off-tune notes might be annoying to some. Intelligent and curious, Dakota has always been interested in puzzles and riddles. However, her stubborn refusal to give up on a mystery without solving it, and even her willfulness in general can sometimes put her in over her head. Her complete overconfidence does nothing to help in such situations, sometimes even getting her in more trouble. biography More than anything as a child, Dakota loved to sing. Both her mother and father nurtured her love for music, and Dakota's vocal skills flourished. As she grew she learned not only to sing well, but to speak well; her wit was especially sharp for her age. She was perhaps a bit spoiled, and acted like it, but those around her didn't seem to mind too much. Finding out about her mutation was a terrible experience. Dakota was singing at a picnic for one of her friends when she lost control of her voice. The sound waves amplified so much that it caused both her and her friend physical pain. Her friend reacted in self-defense, lashing out at her to stop the noise. Which would have not caused serious damage, had he not been holding a fork. Dakota's vocal chords were severely injured in the accident, rendering her mute. Embarrassed, Dakota took to wearing scarves to cover the scars on her neck, if only to prevent people from asking about it. More importantly, however, she set out to learn more about what had caused the accident in the first place. When she realized she might be a mutant, Dakota delved into more research. Eventually, she discovered Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. After some convincing, her parents allowed her to go to Eriwall to attend the school. POWERS Dakota has what has been classified as 'sound manipulation', that is, the ability to modifiy the loudness, pitch, and tone of sounds. Doing so has several practical uses, such as amplifying or muting a sound, which have their own uses, and even, at advanced levels, creating constructs out of sound. Specifically, these constructs would take the form of concentrated bolts or beams of sound that, at certain frequencies, could pierce or otherwise damage usually solid objects. Less concentrated waves would have the ability to create a physical force, pushing/propelling either Dakota herself or other objects/people. Such constructs would require not only extreme effort and concentration depending on their size and form, but also constant sound to hold their shape. Dakota, however, is very far from this skill level, and can currently only make the most basic of modifications. Since she cannot speak, Dakota must rely on other sources of sound to use her powers. Usually, she carries around a violin to create sound to manipulate. It should also be said that she can only alter sounds which originate within several feet of her body. In effect, this means that unless she is very close to something that is making noise, she can generally only manipulate sound she herself creates. At her current skill level, Dakota has the ability to:

[li]Increase/decrease the pitch, or frequency, of a sound.[/li]
Dakota can increase a pitch up to that as used by a bat's sonar, and decrease a pitch to around the low end of human hearing, such as very low bass. Altering anything beyond this range has the same risks as manipulating a volume beyond her learned ranges.[/ul]
