History
Tōge was born in a clan of Desert dwellers who had disbanded from Sunagakure and moved out into the desert to reside in peace. As he was raised he was taught the ways of Fuuton and Doton, eventually giving way to training in Santon. All of the members of the clan were versed in Santon, and used it for various means from hunting to transportation. The clan built sand gliders to travel across the desert at increased speeds, causing them to become nomadic in nature.

During Tōge's teenage years, He discovered that his family also bore the Kekkai Genkai, Jiton. After discovering it on his own, he was further instructed in its uses by his family. As they made sure all of their children were properly trained, otherwise they wouldn't survive in the harshness of the desert.

Unfortunately, the heat of the desert took it's tole on some more than others. The more experienced Nomads and the prodigy-like students were able to withstand the heats, but for some children and adults it was not so. The heat took the lives of young babies whom had been born. And laid waste to the minds of their fathers. After some time a small group of individuals from the Nomadic clan grew aggravated. And rose up with wishes to run the clan, and dreams of traveling to other countries.

Of course Tōge's clan was not violent about their upheavals, and told them they could leave if they felt necessary, but that the rest of the clan wished to remain in their desert home. However the heat had degraded the minds of the men, they wished to control the clan more than anything. They began to make raids on the clans camps, destorying supplies and gliders. As well as killing some of the innocent members.

This lead to war between the nomadic Desert travelers, and the group of dementia stricken individuals with their strange desire to wipe out the clan. Many people died, and Tōge was one of the few to escape the massacres. After the dust had settled and the final survivors were left. They all went their separate ways, with no desire to speak anymore.

Tōge remained within the desert, living his days out in the sands for quite some time. Before deciding to return to Sunagakure, in search of a teacher for the Sennin Modo that Tōge had heard stories of as a child.

Santon-
Tōge possesses the ability to manipulate sand, this ability is granted by great control of Futon and Doton. Granted to him by his family as he trained as a child. He can manipulate sand in many ways, including fashioning weapons and defenses.

Fūton-
In Order to utilize Santon, Tōge had to first learn to control the winds, this was the first nature release he was trained to utilize, and though he has yet to master it. He is adept in it's usage.

Doton
The second Nature transformation taught to Tōge was Doton, allowing him to control the earth. This nature transformation is also a necessary component of Santon. With Doton Tōge can turn stone to sand if his supply has run dry, or if he needs to get an area advantage on the opponent.
