He has no hair on his head, but has a small tuft of white fur instead, and his eyes are in color.

Apart from basic combat knowledge and good physical strength, Dirk really has no noteworthy abilities; he cannot manipulate any Elements or Attributes, and doesn't know any specific fighting styles. He also generally doesn't like to fight in the first place, even though he knows how to throw a punch.
Being a canine, Dirk has a superb sense of smell, and also has strong jaws with sharp teeth, making for quite a powerful bite.
===Genetic Ability: Fur Coat===
An ability that is quite common in Mobians with thick fur, this Genetic Ability causes Dirk's fur to act as a sort of natural shield, absorbing physical blows and reducing the overall damage by about 50%; it also acts as a natural defense against cold weather and weak, Ice-based techniques. However, it's useless against energy-based attacks, as well as the energy-based components of certain melee attacks, like Inferno Slash. The thick fur also tends to leave Dirk more prone to overheating.
===Resistances===
Dirk not only has good physical strength, but he is also more durable than he looks; this is thanks not only to his natural bulk, but to his genetic ability of Fur Coat, which reduces the damage taken from physical attacks by about 50%, and also gives him some protection against cold weather and weak, Ice-based techniques.
===Weaknesses===
Dirk is quite slow, allowing faster opponents to outpace him easily, and making him rather poor at dodging. His genetic ability of Fur Coat also leaves him prone to heat exhaustion.
