Swan's Dance of the Desert

A special Art that allows free manipulation her own Life Energy (Souzenryoku/chakra) in order to converge it with the sand or earth, due to her people's bond with the desert. Through various dances, she is able to manipulate sand in accordance to her movement. If there is no sand, solid minerals will granulate into sand once it touches her chakra, the molecules breaking apart into dust.

Dance of the Desert Mirage: A Genjutsu learned from her mother, Desert Lotus. Desert Swan dances a rather exotically, sending her chakra out as what one would perceive as a wave of heat or something of the sort. In it, tiny traces of grain or dust that are within the vicinity become embedded with her chakra and cause those they have touched to see illusions projected by Desert Swan. If one escapes the illusion whilst still being in the vicinity of the grain, they have the potential to be cast into the illusion once again, which adds to the 'mirage' effect.

Dance of the Desert Moon: A Ninjutsu learned from her grandfather, Desert Owl, the creator of this technique. By surging chakra through the ground, spreading outward from the center point, the ground begins to granulate into sand and becomes a quicksand pit of about a 20-30 foot radius that is able to be controlled through the dance. When it feels an unknown chakra source touching its surface, it immediately reacts by grabbing it and dragging it down under the pit, suffocating and crushing them.
