Abilities

This unique girl holds a rare, and rather terrifying, power of Blood Manipulation. When using this power, Dakota can..
- Prick her own finger (or any other digit) to use her own blood as a weapon. During this time, this particular "mutant" can choose the form that she wishes for her crystallized blood to take, be it a whip or a some type of melee weapon. It's quite simple for banishing the ability when she is through with it.. the blood will automatically flow back into her body as well as seal the wound instantaneously.
- Heal at an alarmingly exponential rate.
- Dakota can extract her blood to use as purification for herself, or others, as well as consume it for increased energy (others can also have the same effects).
- Reproduce the life-force at a rather inhuman speed.
- Have her blood flow into an enemy's veins to possess them. Of course, this is a rather tricky business to pull off.. for Dakota to control a person, her blood MUST be flowing inside another person. She can not simply just glance at someone and take ahold of their body. For one, coming in close enough contact with another being she deems as an enemy is a risky endeavor..but thats not the only posing complication. The more blood Dakota puts inside someone, the more control she will have. So, a tiny prick on their fingers won't allow for much manipulation.. a prick would be more like a whisper in their thoughts. If she wants to gain more control, this manipulator has to put more blood into a person.
But she cannot..
- Simply send a peek over at someone and take full control of their bodies.
- Control blood that is not connect to her body in some form (example: Dakota can not create bullets from her crystallized blood.)
- Constantly use her power (it's quite tiring).

| Overall personality |
Dakota is definitely the type of free-spirit who readily wears their heart on their sleeve. Typically described as a caring and selfless person, she willingly jumps to other's rescue and without hesitation, exerts herself to be of assistance. Of course, Kota does tend to go overboard and will, more often than not, put herself in danger's way to protect those she cares about.. she'll even go to the length of shielding someone from a bullet if it comes to it. This has caused Dakota to be a bit reckless on occasions and having others be worried out of their minds for her well being. However; she truly means everything she does. When doing something, this girl puts forth the greatest display of effort possible, always believing that hard work will pay off (and more often times than not it has for her) in the end. She takes everything as a challenge and, sometimes unfortunately, deals with it head on. Blunt to a fault, Dakota can also have a bit of a temper should someone ever get on her bad side...and isn't afraid to say so if this occurs. Despite this, if she is extremely close to the person who upset her, she will bite her tongue and let them get away with it. Especially with those younger than her. This has caused Dakota to be known as a bit of a pushover when it comes to those she holds near and dear.
As a careless young woman, Dakota typically doesn't allow things to bother her much as they normally should and will, more likely than not, shrug whatever it is off. The idea or event would have to be really infuriating to her for her to snap and figuratively assault the person. Much to some people's confusion, the blood manipulator will be, at one moment, calm and composed then in another, fierce and without bounds. As such, this girl takes great care to work on lengthen her patience (which seems to be infinite unless under certain circumstances) to guard others against her biting words. The one thing she truly has trouble with is trusting others. There are only about four or five people she actually trusts, and will do anything to ensure their safety.
Generally, Dakota has a rather optimistic nature when she is feeling lively and often likes to tease people on occasion...namely her friends. Whether it's about their crush on someone or about a certain aspect of their appearance they like or dislike, Dakota loves to playfully take a jab at them. Of course she does it with care as to not upset them.. however; there are times where she can't help herself. Though that's not to say she is without grace. Dakota does retain some social etiquette when it comes to her elders or the persons she views as being "higher-up" and will often act more reserved when this occurs.
Though, one thing for sure is that Dakota isn't afraid to be herself or to make mistakes. She would rather be tied down to a rock at the bottom of the ocean than be restrained and restricted to certain things or to the idea of normality. If someone were to ask her to put up a façade or to adhere to be more normal, Dakota will immediately become defensive and rashly decline. She doesn't want to feel like a doll, being groomed and told what to do or say.. and she definitely does not want to be sheltered.
On a more light-hearted note, Dakota tends to call people by their given nicknames rather than their actual names simply because it is easier for her to remember.
