''You toss out sand into the air, which swirls and collapses into the shape of a monstrous devil to serve you.''

You conjure a creature from sand, wind, and shadow, duplicating an effect similar to a ''[[SRD:Summon Monster I|summon monster]]'' spell.  However the creature is created, not summoned, and thus is unaffected by the warding of spells such as ''[[SRD:Protection from Evil|protection from evil]]''.  The creature appears is partly unreal; the first time the creature interacts with an opponent they must make a [[Will]] save DC 16 + your [[Wisdom]] modifier.  On success, they only take 50% damage from the conjured creature and any special effects of your conjured creature only have a 50% chance of functioning.  You must spend a move action each round to maintain it, otherwise it collapses back into sand.

You may select from any of the creatures on the table below, gaining new options as your initiator level rises.  You can always choose to conjure a lesser creature if you wish.  You can only have one instance of this maneuver active at one time, if you initiate it again the previous use vanishes.  This maneuver's duration must end (via time or the destruction of the creatures) before the maneuver can be refreshed.  You must use a supply of sand as part of this maneuver, either contains in a pouch on your body or found in the environment.

This maneuver is a supernatural ability.
