This technique is the very basic of earth manipulation doton principles. The target must make a Dex save to avoid being blinded by the mud flung at its face. The blindness lasts until the target removes the mud which takes one turn that provokes an attack of opportunity and requires at least one hand free, or lasts for 6 posts. After the mud is removed, the subject suffers a -1 penalty to spot checks and attack rolls for 1 post afterwords.

Material Focus: One pound of earth, sand, or mud nearby.
