Personality
Aruna always tries his best to get closer to the people around him. When he speaks he has this baritone voice with a metallic after sound in a calm and quiet fashion. To him experience is the best teacher that's why he hones his skills the best he can.

Generally he is a calm,professional,businesslike and hard working. He's a man of action who loves seeing his work turn out to be good.

As a product of a Hunter father he is dedicated for the greater good and public service along with his talent as a sniper he would end up as a hunter without a doubt. But Aruna has this rebellious attitude he does not easily accept rules and norms,Still there are limitations to this independence.

However he will strive for justice he takes down criminals,Grimm and terrorists preying down at the populace. It's a burning need and he cannot tolerate people who freely roam despite their actions.

He tends to sleep longer than intended because of that he gets late at classes frequently.

Omega
Is a Anti-Material rifle equipped with an iron sight it carries ten 12.7mm bullets per magazine. Omega is designed to hit targets hiding behind cover and is very reliable able to withstand humid and arid conditions, When Omega needs to hide in plain sight it can transform into a very long flute that is actually playable. The gun has been spray-painted tan using mesh fencing and cardboard cutouts as stencils. Omega can shatter ones Aura then the second one is the finishing shot. During times where he is bored he plays Omega in it's flute form and practices different tunes so he can impress his friends when they too are bored.

Omega was given to Aruna by his Father.

When in combat he has two frag grenades and one smoke for escape.

Strengths and Weakness
Aruna is a skilled marksman able to hit moving targets easily, As a recon expert his role is to scout and go solo while giving info to the team while at enemy territory, He can operate solo or go with a team his eye sight is so strong that he does not need a scope in his rifle!

Since his rifle has no scope he is invisible under the sun and is a very small target along with his Faunus ability to see well at night he is a force to be reckoned with.

Aruna is a master of disguise he would blend seamlessly with the crowd you would see him play a flute and before you know it you are already shot. His gear is designed for hit and run tactics moving through many sniping spots to confuse the enemy and he can disappear in the desert without a trace and live for a very long period of time he is also a armature chemist he can make simple I.E.D's,Smoke grenades,Incendiary grenades and Tear gas. He learned this in school and he applied it!

Since are Jackals are known scavengers. He makes use of the things around his environment to increase his survival he makes the best of everything he finds and crafts useful tools.

His greatest strength is simply the desert. He knows the desert better than anyone else he can traverse through quickly,survive and hunt down his prey this is made even better with his heightened perception as a Faunus.

His weakness is that he can only run away from people up close to him, He is quite skilled in hand to hand but he will be easily overpowered by enemies with better weapons. Aruna's Omega is built to counter snipe but Aruna is not used to hunting snipers he is prone to making mistakes, When he is at enemy territory by himself he can get cornered and get captured his gear is light so he can get injured really easily so he is built to escape.But since he has iron sights he still stands a chance against enemies up close.

He does not try to kill anyone instead he tries to stun them then get them captured so they can receive a fair trial.

History
Aruna was born during faunus revolution, His parents were both Faunus but did not side with the white fang even if they were fighting alongside the humans there was still racism then and there but he was raised in a normal environment in the kingdom of Vacuo he grew up in a small desert hut at the outskirts of the city.

When Aruna was a small child he always complained about their life. They were Faunus they were mistreated and they were quite poor he asked why the world was so unfair to people like him. His father knew what he felt.

Since they were far away from the city they were basically isolated so they had to fend off Grimm by themselves so Aruna was taught the ways of the marks man he was a lousy shot a really lousy one. When he would study in Shade academy he was frequently bullied because of his heritage that made Aruna really mad at humans.

But one day they were attacked by a huge wave of Grimms. The situation looked hopeless they were surrounded and they were out of ammunition when a group of human hunters came to save them. That changed Aruna his view and because of that he wanted to become a Hunter to him he saw how much of an impact they made to his life and that made him respect authority.

He studied harder in Shade and he begged his Father to be trained. The humans who once bullied him came to respect him for his determination and kindness his Father thought him how to be a better sniper and person to respect the law and never take the lives of any person.

After years of training with his Father he shall be put to the ultimate test...He was to survive by himself at the desert he was given two days worth of food and Omega and one mission to hunt down a Death Stalker Grimm. It was not an ordinary Death Stalker it was a veteran it had arrows stuck in its exoskeleton it has claimed the lives of many people over the years and now Aruna is going to end it's journey.

Aruna spent days hunting down the beast. He would spend hours under a tarp waiting for the creature while being punished by the heat of the sun and brutal sand storms. Even when food and water became scarce he will not stop he wants to prove he is a worthy hunter and successor to his father!

While drinking water on a oasis he found the beast. He was frightened and excited at the same time so the hunt was on! Aruna was about to get an easy kill when the Grimm noticed him and began to attack him, he kept on shooting but the monster would dodge his attacks he thought he was going to die....When he finally was about to accept his fate he wanted to die trying. He wanted to die proving he had dreams and was willing to sacrifice his life for it!

Since he knew that he was going to die he became calm his breathing became slow his muscles were relaxed. As he stood there in the open the creature was about to deal the killing blow when Aruna suddenly took aim with his rifle in lighting speed and accurately shot three bullets simultaneously in a span of two seconds crushing the pincers and tail.

After that he finally realized...He did it. He disabled the beast as it slowly limped towards him as a desperate attempt to fight. Aruna walked towards it and finished it with a single shot and took home the tail as a trophy. Because of that he gained massive fame in his school he was a survivor and has learned life in the desert. Even after the incident he would still go out in the desert to hunt down Grimm by himself to practice his aim because of that the once Sloppy shooter has turned into a calm crack-shot,He garnered himself the title 'Sand Storm'

At the age of 17 he bid farewell to his parents. He was going off the Beacon academy to further improve his skills and to meet new people...Currently he is looking for a team.

Semblance and Aura
His semblance is called 'Hot-Shot' this is only activated when he is extremely relaxed and his breathing is steady. His accuracy improves and follow up shots are so fast its like you are being shot by a machine gun! He tracks people running at a really fast pace allowing him to engage multiple targets simultaneously(It's kinda like having aim-bot) his reloads are a split second and this last for just one minute.

His Aura is normal and nothing of great importance.

The Drawback is that when its used he feels nausea and he can hardly focus making him miss more frequently he only uses this when he needs to cover his friend's retreat.
