<!-- <!---Sandbox is the DNA sample of a Threldat from the planet Hecapus.

Appearance
Sandbox is a broad-shouldered alien whose body is covered in natural blue armor that gives it a more robotic appearance. His head isn't separated from the body by a neck. He has a pair of yellow eyes, a large mouth without teeth and a yellow horn with an orange crystal on it.

The upper part of his arms is unarmored, revealing his natural purple skin, while the lower part is bulkier and with a blue device built into each palm.

He wears the ██████████ symbol on a shoulder-plate on his left shoulder.

Powers and Abilities
Sandbox comes from a species of Engineers and architects and like other members of his species, he has impressive knowledge about most technology, and even more impressive skill at constructing, fixing, modifying and disassembling technology.

In addition, Sandbox's body is connected to a pocket-dimension that he controls with his thoughts. He's capable of scanning any technology or matter that enters the dimension and learn all of its properties in mere seconds.

The orange crystal on Sandbox's horn and his mouth are both able to scan both matter and energy and converse it into data that gets absorbed through his horn or mouth and transported to the pocket-dimension where Sandbox can do anything it was with it.

In turn, the blue spots on Sandbox's arms have the reverse ability of Digital Materialization, or in other words, Sandbox is able to turn the data he has absorbed into solid matter.

Weaknesses
Sandbox is heavy, slow and very bulky, which makes it hard for him to run or move through tight passages.

Although Sandbox doesn't have any limit on the size of the construct he's trying to convert into data, there's a limit on how much he can covert at a given time, which means that absorbing anything the size of a car, or a house would take him at least a few minutes. In addition, if Sandbox gets interrupted while he's converting something, the data that hasn't been absorbed would be however lost. The same goes if he gets interrupted while materializing data.

Sandbox is unable to absorb or create organic matter, however, he's able to both absorb and create matter that resembles organic, such as fake skin.

Though Sandbox has the power to absorb energy, he's only able to use it to power-up his inventions, and can't use it directly in combat.

Trivia

 * Sandbox's name, as well as the whole idea behind the alien, is inspired by the term "Sandbox" used in gaming. Like how in Sandbox games the player is given the tools to craft his own gameplay, this alien has the power to craft anything with the only limits being his own imagination.-->
