Sand
The skill of Sand grants you the manipulation of the very deserts of Sapience. Through it you are able to meld sand to protect your body from harm as well as striking out at your enemies. Sand also gives you the ability to flood an area with sand, thus extending your influence outside the boundries of the desert.
