(Parents - Both Deceased)

Nationality: Australian

Position: Active Combat and Maintenance

History: Fox was born in Melbourne, Australia to Bruce and Kimber Baramundi. His father died when he was 13. He discovered that he could manipulate sand and dust shortly afterward. After his mother's death, he joined the Australian military. It has been alluded that his past lover is presumed to have died or gone missing during his time in the military.

Fox unintentionally revealed that he was a mutant during a combat situation and was offered money to participate in a "Mutant Combat" research experiment. He refused, retired from the service, and relocated to the United States. He currently lives as a dual citizen of Australia and the United States.

Fox has been recruited into the Brotherhood by Marrow. He is currently on Active Combat and works Maintenance at the Brotherhood facility.

In late September, Fox received a letter which sent him running back to Australia. He has had no contact with anyone in the states since he left, and gave no indication as to if or when he will be returning.

Powers

Control Over Particulate Matter

Control over particulate matter. Fox is able to telekinetically control any sand, dust, or ash within a fifteen foot radius of himself. The sand can move at an incredibly fast speed within five feet of his body and is usually used to guard against physical attacks. He can keep it suspended in the air around him and move it to where it is needed for protection, or can form it into a shell or wall for greater defence.

Fox's sand is usually used for physical defence, and is very effective against physical attacks. He is able to compact the sand to the density of cement or disassociate the sand to form sand storms.

Fox is capable of creating sand storms by dissipating his sand into the air and spinning it around his body. The sand in the sand storms has the same range as he can normally control. The sand does not harm Fox because he is able to subconsciously keep a buffer zone between himself and the sand.

Constructs, Replicants, and Golems

Fox is also capable of creating constructs and sand golems, as well as creating replicants of himself out of sand.

The replicants that he creates are detailed to the point of making it difficult to determine which one is the real Fox, especially with the decreased visibility caused by some of his sand storms.

The golems are usually slow moving, and are often used to scare away or ensnare others. Fox most frequently fights with smaller sand constructs (8 to 10 feet tall), in the form of hands or weapons crafted out of sand. The constructs can fluctuate in density from soft sand to cement, and are used to fight and ensnare.

Armor of Sand

Fox is capable of creating an armor of sand by pulling the sand around his body. The armor of sand makes for an excellent last defence. The armor is three inches thick, and can withstand physical force equal to that of cement of the same thickness.

Because he is capable of crafting the sand into just about any shape he wishes, Fox is capable of using the armor as a weapon through the ability to mould spikes and mallets out of the sand.

Erosion

Fox is able to create sand from sandstone and cement. He basically has to erode away particles from the stone using sand that he is already able to control. Because the amount of sand he controls will gradually increase as he erodes, the amount of sand that he creates will double every five minutes that he erodes sandstone, and every twenty minutes that he erodes cement.

Personality

Fox started out as a generally friendly and easy going guy, and he still is...If you're a mutant. If you're a filthy disgusting human, he might treat you with a little less respect. Even still, in public places he tends to be courteous for the most part, though every day his bitterness and resentment for mutant oppression gets a little stronger. He is by and large mistrusting of non-mutant humans and fears the passing of anti-mutant legislation. He also fears being found out as a mutant, and tries to keep his anti-human ranting to himself and a few choice people. Set him off though, and you’re likely to receive an earful about the “natural order” of the world.

Skills

Transportation

Fox holds an Australian driver's licence for both a car and a motorcycle. He holds a US Motorcycle licence, but currently lacks a US car licence. He owns a new Victory Hammer Motorcycle.

Fox served in the military for seven years and has some basic weapons training. Fox is also sufficient in unarmed hand to hand combat. His military training also included basic survival skills. His training also included basic first aid. He can patch up most wounds, but not permanently or with expert skill.

Mechanical Skill

Fox has some mechanical skill. He can do basic vehicle maintenance, repair some older vehicles, repair most older appliances, and weld.

Fox has computer skills equal to that of a basic college student. He is able to use most basic software and is capable of navigating the internet effectively.

Monetary Resources

Fox is currently working as a bartender at a local pub.

Uniform

Sandstorm's uniform includes a gas-mask which covers the entirety of his head. It is useful in concealing his identity, and adds a bit of creepiness to his appearance. Adding to this creepiness is a voice modifier inside the mouthpiece of the mask, the result of which is the Darth Vader-esque sound of his breathing.

Event Involvement

Fox was present during the Brotherhood Training Exercise.

Storyline

Friends and Enemies

Friends

Grey - Fox has met with Grey a few times and likes to try and help her out...though not always in the best ways. Whether he's buying stolen booze from the girl or giving her a pack of smokes, his intentions are nothing but good.

Marrow - Fox has met Marrow a couple of times and they have expressed to each other a mutual sense of mutant superiority. She told him of and recruited him into the Brotherhood.

Pietro - Fox's meeting with Pietro was certainly an interesting one. It started out with Fox being bored and deciding that he wanted to mess with some human kid that happened past him...Unfortunately that person was Pietro and Fox learned the hard way that he was definitely not human. A few cracked ribs and a busted lip later, Fox realized that Pietro was like himself and the two parted ways on good terms. Fox knows Pietro as "Sid".

Attrition - Fox met attrition a while back and they had a short discussion about mutant politics. After being recruited into the Brotherhood, Fox realized that Attrition is one of his team-mates. Fun times are sure to come.
