The Sandbender[edit]
A redheaded human walks alone in the desert, his eyes seem to be with deep dark circles. On his back, a huge vessel of sand. While walking, the man is ambushed by a group of bandits, the human laughs hysterically at the group while the sand on the floor starts to move a lift the bandits on the air. The man laughs on last time before clutching his fist while screams can be heard from the bandits.
The leader of the revolution ran with her army towards the castle, as the big doors were being lock up. The elf stopped the army and raised her hands to skies as her famous grey iron sand started floating on the sky forming a huge battering ram with a single movement towards the door, the woman alone broke down the door.
A Noble Half-elf, wearing a golden robe, is leaving a important meeting, hears the sound of arrows coming his way, the golden robe turns into a fine golden sand and holds the arrows right as they were about to hit his face. The man looks at the attacker who tries to run through the roofs, but feels a heavy wait on his shoulders, when he looks at his armour the sand is covering his cheastpeace making him slower by the minute, while the noble walks slowly towards him, with a smirk on his face.
The ancient art of sandbending is base on years of observation, study and even the sealing of sand elementals. The Sandbender is a powerful elementalist who controls the grains of sand. They are great at defending themselves while also range, and melee attacking. After all they have to be versatile to control so many small things at once.

On a hit, it deals an amount of bludgeoning damage equal to the amount listed in the “Sand Damage” column, and you may attempt a grapple as a bonus action. Additionally, you may add an amount to any damage and attack rolls for features granted by this class, as well as to your AC, as listed in the Sandbender table.
Sand Points[edit]
Sand Points describe the amount of Sand you have with yourself. Having no Sand Points doesn't mean you don't have Sand, it just means the amount of Sand you have is just enough to keep you protected and to use your basic attacks.
At 1st level, you may use Sand Points (SP) to cast spells. Each spell granted by this class, as listed at the bottom of this class description, costs an amount is SP. You may spend 1 additional SP to increase the damage of a spell by 1d8 if it hits or if the target fails its saving throw.

If can use another action to turn the wall back to sand, you can recover the sand points used if it sitll at hath of its original health. Said wall can be also used as a Birgde over a hole in Which case it can hold up to double your weight.
Additionally, you can spend a extra Sand point to fix your wall, giving it max health as a bonus action.
When you reach the 5th Level you can use an action to concentrate at the wall. While concentrated the wal doesn't lose Health points, but if concentration is broken, so is the wall. You can use your action again to solidify the wall.
