Dust Dragon Slayer Magic

Dust Dragon Slayer Magic (塵の滅竜魔法 Chiri no Metsuryū Mahō) is a, and a  utilized by the mage known as Nakir.

Description
Dust Dragon Slayer Magic is an unorthodox form of Dragon Slayer Magic, to say the least. It provides the basic qualities of a Dragon Slayer, that being to conjure and manipulate dust in all of its forms. However, the term known as dust is a very broad term, and thus people often get the precognitive notion that the dust employed within this magic is actually sand. Though, this said accusation isn't particularly far from the truth, considering that sand also encompasses in this very vast category. But it should be noted that the term "dust" covers a very broad variety, as there are several types of dust that can be classified more clearly as "particulate matter lingering in the air"

Thus, the conjuration of particulate matter from his own body is then reinforced with the lingering particulate matter that exists in the air, providing a wide variety of unorthodox materials to create a medium for his Dust Dragon Slayer Magic. Concurrently, each of the materials that take upon the mantle as the "dust" exerted from his own body have a varying mass, which Nakir uses to his advantage quite well. What appears to also very prominent within Dust Dragon Slayer Magic is the ability to conjure the required dust at a distance from himself, though this is particularly taxing on Nakir's magical reserves if done on a large scale, for it requires the full conversion of the sand's ambient Eternano particles to become his own instead. This being said, he has done so a few times when the safety of his city is concerned.

Despite the great strengths and versatility of this form of magic, there are some strenuous aspects in regards to its usage. Most prominently is, like all Dragon Slayers, Nakir is incapable of moving in transport for unexplained reasons. One of the greatest combat-based weaknesses is the mass of the dust that he conjures and manipulates. Because of the range of possibilities, it is possible that the dust is too light to be effective in combat, and requires larger clumps of it to be effective, thus a larger level of magical energy is required to manipulate it effectively. Another great weakness is in the ineffectiveness of consumption that exists within this magic. Due to particulate matter in the air constituting a small portion of it only, it is difficult to obtain proper nourishment for Nakir, especially when he has taxed his magical reserves within battle. However, he has accommodated for this method rather well; as he employs a unique breathing method, involving breathing with his mouth, to absorb all particulate matter in the air that is within a three metre radius from his being. Utilizing such a method allows for Nakir to heighten the absorption rate of dust, making an overall difference in life and death situations.
