Character Name:Sarita Martinez (Baker)
Character LJ (if applicable): sand-girl
Physical description (face, build, weight): 5'4 1/2 in. Short but curvy.
Age: 21
Birthday: August 3
PB: (If using one.) America Ferrera
Abilities: Linda has inherited many of her father's powers. She can her body into a sandlike state. In this form she is immune most forms of physical damage. Like her father she can form constructs from her hands such as hammers, maces, etc. Her transformation is different in her father's in an important respect, while Sandman was essentially a being of sand with flesh-like properties, Linda is fully human and can transform into such a state at will. As a result, she only has a weakness to water while in her sandform. It is possible she could learn some of her dad's more complex abilities, though she has yet to push herself that far. She also knows basic street-fighting skills taught to her during Baker's frequent visits.
Weaknesses and flaws: Linda is unaware of the full extent of her abilities. She has yet to manifest the power to convert normal sand into her own body so she can not heal injuries in this manner..yet. She has the same weakness to water that her father has, though only in her sandform. If she were stripped of her powers she could hold her own against common thugs, but better trained opponents would have little problem.
Character location/Home: New York (born in Columbia)
Alignment (villain, hero etc): Anti-hero
Relatives (living/dead?): William Baker (father, alive) Linda Martinez (mother, alive)

Backstory:
During his membership in the mercenary team, the Wild Pack, Baker joined his teammates on a Mission to Columbia to rescue hostages from FARC rebels. One of the hostages was Linda Martinez, a former rebel disenfranchised with the group's methods. She helped the Wild Pack free the hostages and afterwards she and Baker had a fling. Sarita was born from this tryst. When Baker found out he had a daughter, he frequently returned to Columbia to spend time with her. This continued over the years until it was over a year since his last visit when Sarita became suspicious. Her mother had no idea where he was neither. Unknown to both women, Sandman had been kidnapped and brainwashed by the Wizard at this time with one of the side-effects being that he no longer remembered he had a daughter. As a result, Sarita became determined to find out what happened. While reluctant to have her daughter leave at first, when Sarita manifested her powers p[rotecting her mother from a FARC retributive attack, Linda became convinced Sarita could look after herself. Linda told her daughter that her dad had been a member of the Wild Pack when they met, and told her that was where she should look first.
