◆ Tᴀᴛᴛᴏᴏ / Mᴀʀᴋɪɴɢs: He has scars riddled all over his body, but here are the most noticeable.
He has three white scars which go from the upper left part of his head, down to his lower right jaw. Though his vision is still fine. He has what seem to be large teeth marks on both sides of his neck, as if something bit down on him. He has scratch marks all over his back, as if someone let a wild monster loose on him. His arms seem to be covered in many different white marks, as if multiple small creatures tried dragging him away. His legs seem to have barbed wire scars, as if someone wrapped barbed wire around both of his and slammed down on them. On his chest are large, wide, white jagged marks, looking to be from a claw or some sort of weapon. Around his neck seems to be the markings from a rope, but this could be for any number of reasons. Around his wrists and ankles are white markings which seem to be from cuffs of some sort. He has stab wounds up and down his legs, from a dagger, or even a sword. On his arms are multiple cut marks, as if he were protecting himself with his arms while being hit by swords. Under his right eye seems to be some sort of branding, a jagged letter "T".
On his right collarbone is the symbol of The Observers, the "all-seeing eye". He usually keeps it hidden. On his back is a rather large tattoo, which is his true "mark of birth", cementing the fact that he is, in truth, an Observer.

◆ Wᴇᴀᴋɴᴇssᴇs: - Vehicles of any kind - Someone more intelligent than him - Blocking his senses - [Powerful] Light/White/Solar Magic - Using weapons or armors that make his magics useless - Dragon Slayer Magic (due to his Dragon Transformation) - Threatening his people or Kingdoms
◆ Wᴇᴀᴘᴏɴ: The weapons he has are the ones in his Requip: The Lost Armory, his fists (usually), and his array of other weapons with his Magics and Blessing.
◆ Aʀᴍᴏʀ: He has no sorts of armor.
◆ Eǫᴜɪᴘᴍᴇɴᴛ: ~ Aethereus's Clothing - This refers, mainly, to his entire get-up. Neither of them are magical in any way, except for the fact that they're made from an incredibly durable material, so that Aethereus doesn't destroy them during battle. They're also resistant to celestial energy (only his), so that they don't get too wrecked in battle.
~ Kingly Raiments - Aethereus's royal clothing. Though this clothing looks as if it might be impossible to move around in, it's actually quite easy. And Aethereius has actually had to fight while wearing it before. It's covered in a bunch of enchantments, to prevent anyone from trying to use Magic to assassinate him, and is made of heavily enforced silk. The only reason he doesn't wear it all the time is because he dislikes parading around as High King of Veneficium.
~ The High King's Crown - The crown worn only by the High King of Veneficium, and the Seven Kingdoms. It has seven different points, each one with a gem which represents each Kingdom. Emerald for Praeclarus, Garnet for Magicae, Amber for Vulpes, Topaz for Andromeda, Amethyst for Akujin, Sapphire for Dryadalis, and Ruby for Drakontas. Whenever any Kingdom is damaged or in war, the gem atop the point seems to become clearer and clearer, becoming completely clear when the Kingdom is completely destroyed, or the royalty is overturned.
~ Soulweaver Gauntlets - A special pair of gauntlets that were created by Aethereus. It takes the form of the gloves he usually has on his hands, with ancient markings on them. This gauntlet allows him to be able to tap into his soul, to be able to use his Soulweaver Magic much easier. It's made from a highly durable, yet very flexible material.
~ Infernal Chains - Magically enchanted chains which are wrapped around Aethereus's arms and most of his torso, given to him by his father.. He can remove these chains from his body whenever he wants, but they're otherwise wrapped around his body. He uses these chains for his Authority: Sin of Wrath spell.
~ Celestial Ethernano Pendant - Given to him by his father, it's a pendant which has a highly-concentrated Ethernano gem in it. Aethereus is able to store celestial energy (from an outside source) within this pendant, to suck the celestial energy from it to enter his Dragon Force Mode. Though once used, he must find more celestial energy to charge the Eternano Gem with again.
~ Jewel Pouch - Pretty self-explanatory, really. This is a pouch that Aethereus has attached to the inside of his coat, in which he carries all of his Jewels. It seems to be enchanted to be nearly bottomless, so he can carry great quantities of Jewel at the same time.
~ Nieprawidłowy - A staff which was given to Aethereus when he was made an Aberrant One, by the High King of Veneficium before him. It's more of a status symbol than something to be used for battling. Those that see it are usually able to understand that he isn't a force to be taken lightly, for staffs like this are only given to the strongest Venefician Mages... The Aberrant Ones. This particular staff seems to be made from a strange prism, which appears brownish-black in color, but shines much like a rainbow when place under any sort of light source.
◆ Fɪɢʜᴛɪɴɢ Tʏᴘᴇ(s): Aethereus, for the most part, uses his Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic to attack. Depending on how excited he gets, it can go from calm and easy to read, to wild and confusing as hell. If he happens to be incredibly angry, then it's pretty much torturing his opponent until they die. If his Slayer Magic is useless, he uses one of his other magics to try and gain an advantage. Or use them in different and strange ways to defeat his opponent.
When it comes to weapons, depending on the battle and the experience his enemy has, it can go two ways. The first is rushing in with his sword, and battling the enemy head on. He usually uses Kusanagi, unless it's a powerful enemy, in which case he draws Muramasai. If he knows nothing about who or what he's fighting, then he takes a ranged approach, depending upon his dual pistols, Heaven in Hell, to help him fight. If the enemy is best at close combat, then if he's up for it, he'll use Muramasa, or Heaven in Hell if he wants to be careful. He uses Lance of Longinus when fighting against large groups, since it's easy to swing around and hit multiple people at once. Or if he's unable to use Muramasa and is fighting someone close combat. The only times he uses Flereous is if the enemy is heavily armored and able to deter all bladed weapons and bullets, so that he can do heavy damage with his fists and feet, unless he happens to be bored. He actually can shift quickly between close combat and ranged combat, making him quite a dangerous foe.
When it comes to more corrupted types of enemies, he begins to rely on his Armatus weapons. He usually opens up with Flamberge, since it has the most purifying abilities. But that's usually if the enemy is weak enough to be purified immediately. If the enemy is much more powerful up close, he'll switch over to Aqua Limit, and shoot at them from afar, or use Sylphystia and keep them at mid-range combat. If he's feeling lucky or bored enough, he'll use Earth Revolution against them, or if they're better at ranged combat, use it to close the gap, and bring them down, before purifying them. Though there are times he uses these weapons which aren't against corrupted enemies.
When it comes to his Celestial Spirits, he always uses his Gold Keys the most, usually using Taurus and Aries at the same time, because of their combo attack. His third choice is usually Sagittarius, unless the enemy is far away, in which case Sagittarius is his first choice. Libra is usually only summoned when it comes to enemies that are able to take to the air, so that he can ground them. His Platinum Keys always vary depending on his mood, so there's no real order. His Jade Key comes out whenever he feels that the enemy is powerful enough to face it, since it's one of his most powerful. And his Silver Keys, too, vary depending on the situation, which means there's no real order to them, either.
◆ Sᴘᴇᴄɪᴀʟ Aʙɪʟɪᴛʏ: He has the ability to devour celestial energy, and any sort of Celestial attacks, such as Heavenly Body Magic. It's actual very useful in today's world.

◎◎ Main Magic: [Primordial] Eclipsing Celestial Dragon Slayer [14] ◎◎
◎ This peculiar type of Dragon Slayer Magic allows Aethereus to incorporate what seems to be the night sky into his attacks. Which makes it look like he's literally creating the stars and space from his mouth, hurling towards his enemy. It also causes his Force, Drive, and King Modes to take on strange, celestial-like scales, giving them a sort of ethereal nature. This form of Dragon Slaying is considered stronger than the normal, and is closely related to other elements, such as Solar. Though they should not be confused.
This Magic has been upgraded from regular Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic, up to what is known as "Eclipsing" Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic. This is due to its user becoming a Primordial Dragon Slayer and, as such, making the Magic itself much more powerful. The same is true with any other upgraded Dragon Slayer Magics which are Primordial level.
BASIC SPELLS » Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Roar The upgraded version of the Dragon's Roar attack of Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic, and the first spell that any Dragon Slayer learns when training under their dragon parent. It is the hyperresonance ability of a dragon, attuned to the element of the stars. When performing Celestial Dragon's Roar, Aethereus utilizes his enhanced lung capacity in order to gather and condense ambient eternano from within the atmosphere and store it momentarily within his mouth- from here, Aethereus attunes the eternano gathered by merging them with his energy in order to induce the usual fusion to being power into the current realm; this results in Aethereus utilizing his magical energy in order to manipulate the kinetic energy of eternano to assert absolute dominance over celestial energy, raising the motion of any target through their mere presence in order to ignite it; Aethereus draws more and more celestial energies into his mouth, until he has gathered enough to the point that just by propelling it outwards. Once this is done, Aethereus will release massive blast of energy spewing forth from his mouth towards the target; in the case of Celestial Dragon's Roar which, of course, as its name would suggest, is based around celestial energy, this has the effect of releasing the celestial energy in the form of an extremely large and destructive sparking blast composed of stardust which has enough strength to blast through solid cement. This roar has two modes, one that is a laser composed of celestial energy while the other is a onyx whirlwind composed of glittering stardust.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Starry Fist Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Starry Fist is an upgrade of the basic Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic spell that is the celestial-derived equivalent to other punching Dragon Slayer spells; effectively, Celestial Dragon's Starry Fist allows Aethereus to imbue his fist with stardust and strike forward with an destructive punch that releases a fist-sized explosion of celestial energy.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Meteor Shower An alternate version of Celestial Dragon's Roar where multiple blasts of celestial energy are launched towards the target at once, splitting from an enormous wave of celestial energy into countless smaller ones. When performing Eclisping Celestial Dragon's Meteor Shower, Aethereus first inhales, gathering celestial energy within his mouth; adding his own magical power into the mixture to serve as a propellant to the stardust; charging it up for a few moments. Once the charging phase has been completed, Aethereus unleashes a mighty roar that unleashes an enormous amount of starry energy which transfigures into a cascade of onyx glittering beams reminiscent of shooting stars.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Meteor Fist Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Meteor Fist is an upgraded Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic spell and a variant of Celestial Dragon's Starry Fist where Aethereus launches countless punches per second, resembling a meteoric storm raining down upon the opponent. To begin, he user shapes stardust in the form of a sphere around his hand, giving off the resemblance of their fist simply becoming immersed in stardust. Once this process has been completed, Aethereus strikes forth with both of his arms rapidly at speeds beyond mortal comprehension, releasing innumerable punches that impact upon the enemy hundreds of times per second. This vicious volley of blows, said to possess the power of a meteoric storm, smash into the frame of Aethereus's helpless opponent.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Star Talon An upgraded version of the basic Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic spell that is the light-derived equivalent to other single-strike close-range Dragon Slayer spells; effectively, Celestial Dragon's Star Talon allows the user to imbue their leg with starry energy and strike forward with a fast kick that possesses incredible power and leaves large wakes of starlight in the arc of the user's strike. In any case, when performing Celestial Dragon's Star Talon, the caster focuses before utilizing their magical energy in order to manifest and alter the eternano which is saturated throughout the atmosphere by inducing the usual fusion between the energies dwelling within their body with the ambient supernatural particles; this results in both components of the activation phase becoming entwined and their existence is transmogrified into that of protons which the user can then alter the movement of them, taking it one step further in order to simulate the effect reflecting and absorbing stardust either second-hand or manually, producing starlight, which is a silver light that reaches the planet from space, all focused around one or more of their legs. From here, the caster shapes this starlight in the form of a sphere that's compressed around their foot, giving off the resemblance of their leg simply becoming immersed in glittering, onyx colored stardust. Once this process has been completed, the user begins the true attacking portion of the spell as they thrust their leg forward and swinging their foot in front of them from ground level to head level at maximum height, via swinging their leg inward, striking towards the enemy at a great speed. The user can increase the striking reach of their foot by 'charging up' by means of first repeatedly swinging their kicking leg around before using the spinning force to both engulf the leg in starlight to its utmost limits, and to maximize the hitting power. The starlight compressed upon the user's leg has an intensity that sears the opponent upon impact in conjunction with dealing sheer blunt damage, and the velocity that Glorious Spike is cast is intense to a point that even the slightest of movements travel at speeds faster than anyone, even those with clairvoyance, cannot predict. It is one of the user's most powerful blows; mostly because of it's "multi-hit" feature which doubles the damage as the starlight condensed upon their foot spreads out onto the opponent at the moment of contact, swirling around them in a powerful spiral, creating a grinding drill effect that blasts into the opponent, inflicting major damage and launching them far away, creating an impact which is powerful enough to propel the unlucky recipient several meters away. Celestial Dragon's Star Talon is capable of being utilized in many manners, such as a normal one hundred and eighty degree roundhouse kick, a three hundred and sixty degree roundhouse kick, which is used to surprise opponents who attempt to attack the caster from behind, and a flying side kick.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Star Claw Eclipsing Celestial Dragon Slayer Spell where Aethereus amasses a large amount of glittering stardust upon his feet or palms before releasing these celestial energies in order to induce high-speed movement via jet-propulsion while additionally augmenting the power of his kicks and/or punches. When performing this spell, Aethereus focuses his energies intently, pulsing his magical energy hewn from his Magic Origin outwards rather subtly, forcing domination over all eternano ambient within the atmosphere and drawing it towards himself as he uses his willpower in order to excite the movements of the eternano, gathering and generating a mass of celestial energies, all focused around his feet or palms, giving off the visage of his feet or palms becomes masses of stardust. Once this is done, the caster harnesses these celestial energies in order to jet-propel himself either on land or in the sky at astounding speeds in any direction that he desires, easily matching a High Speed user; the speeds that Aethereus darts about the atmosphere at are a normal flight speed of two hundred and seventy kilometers per hour; by going further, he can accelerate up to supersonic speeds capable of catching up with faster beings such as a user of White Dragon Slayer Magic. Once Aethereus reaches his target, he is capable of assaulting the opponent with a powerful celestial energy-enhanced kick. The speed Aethereus gains doesn't end when the spell ends, as it keeps the spell's velocity a second after the move ends, making Aethereus move even further if the move ends in the air. When utilizing Celestial Dragon's Star Claw as a propulsion method, Aethereus possesses the ability to change direction in midflight, though he has an inability to land before the celestial energies centered around his feet completely dissipate, which can make the move especially difficult to aim as the sheer speed is difficult to control. Hence, Celestial Dragon's Star Claw can become a double-edged sword. Provided the opponent is hit by both the charge-up and recovery when utilizing it offensively, this spell can be especially punishing- though it can hit the opponent with a small few strikes while it is charging, followed by a much stronger finishing blow. As such, Celestial Dragon's Star Claw best usage is for vertical or diagonal dashing, and Aethereus can also combine the jet-propulsion capabilities of this spell for use with other techniques.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Shooting Star A spell that allows Aethereus to move at the speed of light, zipping around in the air at unimaginable velocities; waltzing around without any hindrances. When in motion while using Shooting Star, Aethereus manifests a ring of starlight upon his back which captures the winds with its thin curtain of magical particles, propelling Aethereus and allowing him to build up speed over time as he darts through the air. Shooting Star, as the name would indicate, enables Aethereus to move at a speed that most people cannot comprehend; all Aethereus is required to do is utilize magical manipulation to serve as a kick-off point; granting him "true flight", moving throughout the air as free as a bird, or rather, in a "deeper" term, like a plastic bag in the wind. In any case, Shooting Star drastically augments his movements with the power of stardust, allowing him to fly swiftly, or even shoot up vertical surfaces; moving dozens upon dozens of times faster than somebody using any form of high-speed movement spells while maintaining flight for extremely long periods of time. Aethereus's speed appears to create up to eight doubles of himself while in motion. These doubles are not illusory; they are moving at a speed between different positions that is vastly faster than the speed of sound. As such, were all the doubles to attack at once, it would mean that Aethereus is attacking from all those positions simultaneously, giving him incredible destructive power. Similarly, because of this same speed, attacking the doubles would be futile as Aethereus would have moved long before the attack even reaches him. The speed and after-images granted by Shooting Star allow Aethereus to effectively dodge all sorts of multi-directional attacks. Activating this attack causes a slip stream of starlight effect that allows Aethereus to achieve speeds normally impossible him in any location. By charging the particles with magical energy, this allows Aethereus an additional defensive measure as well as immense propulsion. As with their speed, Aethereus is capable of assaulting his opponents with quick, but powerful, melee attacks – more about this is detailed below in "Starstrike Flash". Aethereus can also enhance his already swift flight speed by riding on strong gusts of wind, and can slow or deflect falls by creating cushions of air. When used in the heat of battle, Shooting Star causes Aethereus to appear as if he is simply flowing around his opponents without expending any energy at all, letting the opponent tire themselves out and thus creating exploitable openings. This conservation of energy, combined with his high stamina, gives Aethereus an advantage in prolonged combat. However due to the high amount of speed, Aethereus cannot keep this magic active for long.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Starry Wings Aethereus rushes forward against two opponents. While doing so, he produces a large stream of celestial energy from each of his arms, which, when it comes in contact with the foes, releases a flurry of darkness and burning attack and at the same time sends the opponent flying away behind them due to the blunt force of the produced celestial energy. Such lightning take the rough form of a pair of Dragon's wings, thus the name of the attack.
ADVANCED SPELLS » Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Rings of Saturn This spell allows Aethereus to generate rings composed of starry energy in which he can used to enhance already existing spells. Upon creating one of these rings, a transparent field will fill the empty space in the middle of the ring. This transparent field acts as an amplifier to spells that travel through it, boosting them up by one Spell Rank. The rings could alternatively carry close range spells, making them into long range ones. However after a single use, this spell requires a cool down of 10 posts.
» Rings of Saturn: Meteor Fist A long ranged attack, Aethereus will first generate three Saturn Rings, then he will begin to cast Celestial Dragon's Meteor Fist. A smaller one will go over his fist and a larger one will go over his forearm while a large one will be in front of him. The ring over his forearm will begin to spin clockwise, while the ring around his fist will start to spin counterclockwise. As the rings spin, celestial eternano will begin to be charged around his entire upper arm and compact the Celestial Dragon's Meteor Fist. Once the rings spin fast enough and enough Eternano is gathered, Aethereus will reel back his upper forearm and thrust it forward, launching forth the spinning rings with Celestial eternano keeping the rings together like a missile as it flies through the third ring, boosting the attack up to near Ultimate Rank.
» Rings of Saturn: Cosmic Roar Aethereus will begin this spell by creating a Saturn Ring a few feet away from his face. He will first inhale, gathering stardust within his mouth; adding his own magical power into the mixture to serve as a propellant to the starry energy; charging it up for a few moments. Once the charging phase has been completed, Aethereus unleashes the mighty roar through the ring that unleashes an enormous amount of glittering onyx energy that takes the form of a crackling wave of stardust that shoots forth instantly, blasting the opponent with immense power. While Celestial Dragon's Saturn Ring: Cosmic Roar does indeed possess incredible strength, speed, and a wide area-of-effect, the spell's true power lies in the fact that it possesses the a delayed effect if the initial blast should fail, wherein the target will be blasted by residual effects left over by the wave of starlight. While not as overwhelming as the initial blast, the after-effect can catch foes off guard. The might displayed by Rings of Saturn: Cosmic Roar is more than enough to deal massive damage.
» Return to Stardust A spell that allows Aethereus to turn inorganic solid objects he touches into stardust and then utilize that light in any way that they deem suitable, whether it be to be used to aid in spells or something for him to devour and regain his strength. Return to Stardust is a term referring to the transformation of a living organism or an inanimate object into stardust; anything that can be considered to have a material consistency or dwells throughout the atmosphere, even other forms of particles- it is considered something that Return to Stardust is capable of affecting. It is a supplementary ability that a user of Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic can activate only once per day. Return to Stardust functions by converting anything that the user deems fit into stardust by using the immense power of said stardust to annihilate its composition before changing and recreating it into stardust. However it should be noted that Aethereus cannot convert anything bigger than himself into stardust.
» Eclipsing Celestial Dragon's Flight Through the use of Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic, Aethereus is capable of transforming his own body into celestial energy, turning himself into, essentially, stardust. Together with the signature intangibility of Elemental Magic, which allows Aethereus to let physical and Magical attacks pass harmlessly through his body when he's transformed, this form also grants him some traits typical of real stardust: he's shown capable of freely moving around at high speed, and to travel over long distances, rapidly appearing at his destination from places away from sight as though as he was teleporting. However Aethereus only seems to be able to maintain this form while in motion.
» Starry Skies: Dragonhead Blasters Aethereus has the ability summon up the five disembodied Dragon heads, made completely out of celestial energy. He can control these heads to make them move all around the battlefield, and use celestial breath to blast his enemies. What makes them so dangerous is that they're difficult to destroy, as touching them will heavily damage you. Though they can be crushed with earth, or blown away by very strong winds.
◎◎ Sub Magic: Three Great Fairy Magics ◎◎
◎ The Three Great Fairy Magics are a set of three Spells which are special only to the Fairy Tail Guild Master and those in the Fairy Tail guild they can trust to use them. These spells have been around since the very first Guild Master and, ever since, grown in ppwer and secrecy, becoming more myth than they are truth. It seems that only those in Fairy Tail are able to use this power, and all others that try to learn any of these fail. It's also unable to copied by any sorts of copying Magic, making it that much more special.

ADVANCED SPELLS » Fairy Law When activated, a bright light envelops the area and inflicts massive damage on whoever the caster perceives from their heart as an enemy, leaving friends and bystanders completely unharmed. The choice between friend or foe is decided by the user's heart, and they cannot lie to this Magic. It is considered one of the most powerful Magics and is one of the rare legendary spells, and also one of the Three Great Fairy Magics. The Magic's strength was so great that it defeated Jose Porla, a Wizard Saint, in a single blow, during a battle in the Phantom Lord vs Fairy Tail guild war. According to the second master of Fairy Tail, Precht, Fairy Law is a deterrent Magic, meant to discourage further action from enemies, and is not something that should be used lightly. Setting Law as its basis, Mavis modified and improved it so that users wouldn't suffer from its side effect, but she has noted that this Magic is meant to only be used to a singular target and the more targets the caster uses it on the more lethal it would be to their lifespan, and in the worst cases can cause death to the caster.
» Fairy Glitter Fairy Glitter is one of the three Great Magics of the Fairy Tail Guild and is sealed within Mavis' grave. According to Bluenote Stinger, it is a Magic that rivals Fairy Law and is a radiance of merciless light that denies the existence of nearby foes. It is also an exceedingly complex and unfathomably intricate Magic that collects and concentrates the light of the sun, the moon and the stars. According to Mavis Vermilion, it takes a lot of Magic Power and concentration to properly wield Fairy Glitter, shown when Cana was unable to use it properly despite her considerable power. However, on the Third Day of the Grand Magic Games, Cana displayed her ability to use Fairy Glitter to its full potential—it was strong enough to break the MPF and achieve the maximum score of 9,999, even exceeding the score garnered by the Wizard Saint Jura Neekis' spell. Fairy Glitter was also theorized by Mavis to be one of the few things that could hurt her ethereal body and free her physical one from the Lacrima that was holding it. This theory was later proven correct, when after an unknown number of shots, Mavis' Thought Projection was destroyed by Cana, with the crystal being broken as a result as well.
» Fairy Sphere A Magic which converts Fairy Tail member's bonds and faith into Magic Power. It takes the form of a large sphere with a Fairy Tail mark and a stylized pair of wings emblazoned upon it. The Magic protects the Guild from any evil, an absolute defense Magic, powerful enough to defend against even time. However, the sphere acts as a stasis chamber, a place in which time stops, thus everyone within the sphere is stuck in a frozen state in which they don't age.[1] It's powerful enough to protect Tenrou Island and everyone on it from Acnologia's Dragon's Roar. Mavis, the creator of the Magic, wrote the instructions for one to cast. However, they would need other Fairy Tail members power in unison to support the magic.

◆ This ability allows Aethereus to take on Dragon qualities, such as claws, arms, scales, wings, and even horns! This Magic allows him to become much more like a Dragon, giving him a much better edge in battle. But the one downfall of this magic is that it makes Aethereus much more susceptible to Dragon Slaying Magic. He's able to use the Magic himself, but if someone else uses it against him, he takes more damage from it than usual. Other than that, this ability is considered to be incredibly useful.
BASIC SPELLS » Dragon's Scaly Arms This spell allows Aethereus to turn his own arms and hands into that of a Dragon's. When transformed, this enhances Aethereus's own strength, making him stronger than before. This can be used to enhance punches, especially accompanied by his respective Dragon's Punch. Otherwise, it can be great for ripping open doors that are barred by the enemy. Or he can use it to rip his opponent to shreds.
» Dragon's Scaly Legs This spell allows Aethereus to turn his own legs and into that of a Dragon's. When transformed, this enhances Aethereus's own strength, making him stronger than before. This can be used to enhance kicks, especially accompanied by his respective Dragon's Kick. Otherwise, it can be great for kicking open doors that are barred by the enemy.
» Dragon's Dreadful Horns This spell allows Aethereus to grow his very own set of Dragon horns. A Dragon's horns are said to be tougher than diamonds, so it'd be useful for ramming into someone or something with. Though it depends on if the horns are curved or straight. Though he can grow between one and four horns, depending on his Dragon form.
ADVANCED SPELLS » Dragon's Rippling Scales This spell allows Aethereus to cover his body in scales, which makes for a natural defense. Though these scales are not as tough as the Iron Dragon's Scales. They're still pretty tough, and great to use against enemies that use physical combat as a battle style. Though it's possible for the scales to be knocked off, revealing regular skin underneath still.
» Dragon's Tremoring Tail This spell allows Aethereus to grow a Dragon's tail from his backside. The size and shape of the tail depend on Aethereus's own Dragon form. It's easy to control, and is completely prehensile. So he can easily pick someone up with it or stop someone's hand or foot from hitting him. The possibilities are... somewhat limited.
» Dragon's Luxurious Wings This spell allows Aethereus to grow a pair of Dragon wings from his back. It also gives him the ability to fly, though how high and far depend on Aethereus's own stamina. Someone with a lot of stamina can easily fly for miles, and way high up into the sky, as if an actual Dragon themselves.
» Dragon's Ravenous Roar This spell allows Aethereus to change his vocal chords into that of a Dragon's. By doing this, he is able to release a loud roar from his mouth. This roar, being very reminiscent of a Dragon's itself, is able to strike fear into most anything that hears it, making them stop fighting or even run away in terror.
◎◎ Sub Magic: Shinigami Eyes [7] ◎◎
◆ Shinigami Eyes is an unnatural Eye Magic, which allows its user to be able to see, and do, many "death related" things. No, they are not able to kill people just by looking at them, but there are many different things that they are able to do. See someone's countdown to their death, summon ethereal weapons, and even see the emotions that link people to one another. When using the power of Shinigami Eyes, the user's pupils seem to expand into clocks, with a minute and hour hand present, and each number in its Roman Numeral version. These strange "clocks" reach to the edges of the their iris. Their sclera (whites of their eyes) will become pitch black, and accompanied by an slight ethereal glow.
BASIC SPELLS » Countdown to Death Aethereus has the ability to see strange timers above the heads of others. These timers seem to count down to their owner's death. It's impossible to mess with these timers, to give someone more or less time. Telling someone these times will, in short, lead to an immediate death for Aethereus. (Cannot be used without permission from the character's owner.)
» Strings of Connection Aethereus has the ability to see "strings" of fate, which connect two people by various emotions. The color of the string depends upon how each person feels about another. These strings can be cut, to remove these feelings until each person feels that way about the other once more. Though doing so can lead to some... unwanted consequences. (Strings cannot be severed without permission from the owners of both characters.)
» Death Perception Aethereus has the ability to see how a person dies. The person Aethereus is looking at will seem normal, except for [a] grievous wound(s) on their body, referencing how it is the person will die. If they die by natural means, then their body will otherwise look completely normal. (Cannot be used without permission from the character's owner.)
» Soul Perception Aethereus has the ability to see a person's soul, and the string attached which gives them life. If Aethereus, or some unnatural force were to cut the string, then the owner of the soul would die on the spot. Though for one to cut the string, they would need either the "Three Fates' Golden Scissors" or "Death's Scythe" (both of which are nonexistent). But it is possible for the user to protect the string and soul of another.
ADVANCED SPELLS » Ethereal Scissors of The Fates Aethereus has the ability to summon a pair of ethereal scissors. He's able to summon it in varying sizes, and use it for attacks. He's also the only one that can touch and use them. It would be impossible for anyone else, unless someone copied his powers, to use them. They're much more effective when fighting ethereal creatures, such as ghosts. Aethereus also has the ability to directly sever the strings which connect people to each other (emotion-wise). Though he still cannot mess with someone's soul string. The scissors aren't strong enough for that.
» Ethereal Scythe of The Grim Reaper Aethereus has the ability to summon an ethereal scythe. He's able to summon it in varying sizes, and use it for attacks. He's also the only one that can touch and use it. It would be impossible for anyone else, unless someone copied his powers, to use it. It's much more effective when fighting ethereal creatures, such as ghosts. Aethereus also has the ability to inflict an aura of "death" upon his ethereal scythe. Doing so causes any living organism it touches (with the exception of characters) to die. And not just plainly die. The organism's body slowly withers before turning to dust.
» Ethereal Shield of The Phoenix Aethereus has the ability to summon an ethereal shield. He's able to summon it in varying sizes, and use it for attacks. He's also the only one that can touch and use it. It would be impossible for anyone else, unless someone copied his powers, to use it. Aethereus also has the ability to inflict an aura of "life" upon his ethereal shield. Doing so will cause any organism that touches it to be healed, or brought back to life (with the exception of characters). It heals the most grievous of wounds, unless the person is right at death's doorstep.
◎◎ Sub Magic: Authority of Sin [7] ◎◎
◆ Authority of Sin is a powerful Magic, technically made up of seven different parts. Each one, of coursed, based off the Seven Deadly Sins. Each of these parts is based off of a Sin (or Sins) the user has committed, though it doesn't necessarily seem to vary that much from user to user. The only thing that seems to vary is the user's experience with the Magic. Other things that would likely vary and how the user would use each of the spells within this Magic, since most of them seem to affect certain parts of the user.
BASIC SPELLS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED SPELLS » Authority: Sin of Sloth Aethereus can cause physical interference by creating an invisible force field in the shape of a hand. The effect area, power, and number of hands is based on his Magic Power. At most, he can summon up to fifty of these hands. Aethereus can use these hands to grab people or objects, and the hands are strong enough that they can uproot a tree from the ground. It is possible to see these hands if one is aware of the Spell.
» Authority: Sin of Gluttony By biting down on his thumb and drinking the blood from it, Aethereus is able to enhance his physical capabilities. Becoming stronger, quicker, and just overall much more... physically advanced. By eating the flesh of another person (either just skin or their finger), he can enhance himself by much, much more. Though this causes him to go more and more insane if he goes this path, eventually making him much like a wild beast.
» Authority: Sin of Greed Aethereus can stop the time of himself or anything he's wearing, touched, or even his breath. This stops any interference from outside and only allows his interference outwards. This negates any physical (not Magic) attack against Aethereus, and if he waves their hand, anything in its trajectory is cut (unless it's very durable). Atmosphere released from the stillness can cause shockwaves, gravel thrown around can become inevitable shots, and it can enable Aethereus to travel at extremely high speeds. Normally, multiple uses of this ability can be deadly as his own heart also stops, however it can be circumvented by eating the heart of another person, or even the heart of an animal.
» Authority: Sin of Wrath Aethereus is able to turn any chains he has into flaming ones, using them much like a whip. Though these aren't regular flaming chains. With each hit from one of these chains, the opponent becomes angrier, and angrier. Even if they're usually calm in battle. Reason being the essence of "wrath" is within these chains and fire, making them powerful weapons if used right (anger part only effects NPCs).
» Authority: Sin of Lust Through the act of groping someone, or feeding off of the sexual thoughts of those around him, Aethereus is able to enhance all current Spells, making them more powerful for a temporary amount of time. Through this he can also make his aging process slow down or stop for a limited amount of time. It's also possible to unlock new and more powerful abilities this way.
» Authority: Sin of Pride Aethereus is able to cast an illusion upon the opponent, though a very peculiar one. Instead of being like most strange illusions, this one focuses on bringing out which the opponent most desires, drawing upon their pride to make them see that which they want to. Whether it be winning some sort of award, or beating down the one person they've wanted to for a while, this illusion is powerful enough to make it seem that way. The illusion is more powerful the more prideful the opponent.
» Authority: Sin of Envy Aethereus has the ability to absorb Magic that is used on him, allowing him to be able to use the Magic or its attributes temporarily himself. Attributes meaning if he were hit by a weapon, he could transform part of his body into the basic form of that weapon (meaning his hand would become a blade if sword, his fingers like guns if ranged). He is unable to do this with any sort of Lost Magics though, since this spell is not powerful enough to deliver the output for them. The ability to use Spells and such depends on his own Rank.

◎◎ Sub Magic: Terrain Effect [7] ◎◎
◎ It is a Magic which allows the user to manipulate the terrain of a specific area and give it different effects. The effect given may vary from causing the ground to crumble to manipulating the area's gravity. The user could even summon a mass of water and flood the entire area.
BASIC SPELLS » Terrain Effect: Whirpool Zone To activate this spell, Aethereus raises both of his arms over his head, pointing them straight up towards the sky. This action creates a torrent of water that surrounds him, circling in a fashion similar to a tornado. From there, the water can be manipulated to flow outwards from him (the user) in huge waves, engulfing anything in its path or flooding an entire area.
» Terrain Effect: Lava Zone To activate this spell, Aethereus crosses his arms in front of himself, with both palms facing to the side. The ground then rumbles and trembles before it starts to crumble in the targeted area, revealing a pool of lava, which sends anyone around or in the selected region into the liquid magma.
»Terrain Effect: Gravity Zone Aethereus, with the use of hand gestures, can manipulate the gravity in a certain area to levitate both objects and people up into the air, or send them crashing down into the ground.
ADVANCED SPELLS » Terrain Effect: Labyrinth Labyrinth allows Aethereus to change the terrain around him, effectively making it into a large maze. Though this does come with a few different cons. First, it takes time to prepare this type of magic for use, though it can be "charged" while Aethereus is traveling. Though if they use any kind of magic, the timer resets. It also takes a lot out of Aethereus, making him unable to do much for a bit. He can still move and walk around, but he's weaker than he'd normally be. The upside is that he knows his way around the mazes he creates, and can easily escape if the need be. This is the basic form of Labyrinth, able to be used almost anywhere (except the sky, of course).
» Terrain Effect: Forest Labyrinth Forest Labyrinth allows Aethereus to change the forested terrain around him, effectively making it into a large maze. (Cons and pros same as original Labyrinth). The reason this is different from the other "Labyrinth" types is that it basically makes the woods like a "Lost Woods" (LoZ reference) type area. To be able to navigate the maze, one would need to listen closely for the sound of wind blowing from one of the tunnels. Going through the wrong one would get you lost for a while.
» Terrain Effect: Mountain Labyrinth Mountain Labyrinth allows Aethereus to change the mountainous terrain around him, effectively making it into a large maze. (Cons and pros same as original Labyrinth). The reason the Mountain Labyrinth is different is because its made up of thick, rugged walls. And it's on a rugged terrain. This terrain can be shifted by Aethereus to make it much more difficult to navigate, and he can even send boulders down the paths.
» Terrain Effect: Snow/Blizzard Labyrinth Snow/Blizzard Labyrinth allows Aethereus to change the terrain around him, effectively making it into a large maze. (Cons and pros same as original Labyrinth). What makes the Snow/Blizzard Labyrinth different from its "relatives" is that it can be considered more of a mirror maze. Every wall seems to have one's reflection in it, and each wall seems to be made up of multiple turned panels, so it shows around twenty different reflections. The walls are also unable to be melted by almost any fire (Slayer Fire can melt it).
◎◎ Sub Magic: Arcana Magic [20] ◎◎
◆ A type of Holder Magic which invokes the use of the "Major Arcana" in a deck of Tarot Cards. Though many refer to them as just "The Arcana". Each of the twenty-two cards used for this magic have many varying effects. Though no two cards give the exact same effect, and each is individually unique. Though it should be noted that "The Fool" and "The World" Arcana are the two most powerful cards in the deck. The other twenty vary far and in between
BASIC SPELLS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED SPELLS » I. The Magician This card gives Aethereus an effect much like opening his Second Origin. It is also believed to be able to surpass even the Third Origin in power, if used correctly by a powerful enough Mage. In other words, it strengthens his raw Magical Power, increasing the power and effect of his spells exponentially.
» II. The High Priestess Using this card can either turn out to be an incredibly risky gambit, or a great reward. When used, this card replaces one of the Aethereus's current Magics, temporarily replacing it with another, completely random Magic. But it's not known which Magic will be replaced (not this one), and which one it will be replaced with.
» III. The Empress Using this card causes a wave of calmness to flow over the battlefield, causing all within its reach to be overcome by a sudden and happy calm. It's able to cease all battle, no matter how bloody, though only for a short amount of time. Great to use for escaping.
» IV. The Emperor Using this card causes a wave of madness to flow over the battlefield, causing all within its reach to go (temporarily) insane and mad, tearing apart, or at least trying to tear apart, their enemies. In some cases, it even causes them to kill themselves (NPCs only). Though this effect lasts only for a short amount of time. Great to use for escaping.
» V. The Hierophant Using this card causes all secrets to be revealed. Not a person's secrets, but items hidden nearby. Or a wall which is actually an illusion. More of an illusion-breaker and treasure hunting device than it is a powerful attack.
» VI. The Lovers Upon using this card, Aethereus can use a sort of "Attraction" spell on his opponent. Doing so causes his opponent to become too charmed by him to continue battling against him or his friends. It can cause them to turn on their (the enemy's) allies.
» VII. The Chariot This card can either greatly enhance Aethereus's speed tp superhuman levels, or summon a vehicle for him to ride on/in and use. It's completely random as to which one does happen, which makes it a slightly riskier card to use if you happen to be a Dragon Slayer.
» VIII. Strength The use of this card causes Aethereus to become much more powerful physically. Meaning one could go from shrimpy to The Hulk in mere seconds. Though it stops the usage of all other Magic until the card's effects wear off, making it much like a double-edged sword.
» IX. The Hermit Using this card transports Aethereus to a cave hidden away from all other life. It's great to use if he's feeling stressed, or is surrounded by people who are screaming and yelling. It's also great for escape, since the enemy likely thinks he teleported away. He can also take anyone he's touching, and anyone that person is touching, etc. with him. He can stay as long as he needs, but cannot leave unless through transportation again. It's also great for storing things in.
» X. Wheel of Fortune Using this card can either give Aethereus or his target a great blessing, or a horrible curse. When the card is used, a giant wheel with negative and positive rewards listed on it pops into existence. It automatically spins itself, with its target acting as the pointer (not the actual person, but a doll of them). Whatever it lands on, will affect that person. If it's money or something material, they keep it or lose it forever. If it's an attack, it's only temporary.
» XI. Justice Using this card causes both Aethereus and his target to be trapped on each side of a giant scale. This scale then tips back and forth, weighing both characters. Whoever has the most guilt, or done the most bad deeds in their life, will be weighed down to the bottom, and delivered a terribly nasty shock. And yes, this shock DOES affect those impervious to the sort of damage.
» XII. The Hanged Man Using this card will cause great confusion among Aethereus's targets if they are not prepared for this card's effects. Upon use, this card reverses the entire world, turning everything within view upside down and seeming to reverse all direction. Throws many off balance and their equilibrium, making it easy for those prepared to get the upper hand.
» XIII. Death Using this card summons a small undead army in front of Aethereus, consisting of about twenty undead. Though none of them can use Magic, they seem to be impervious to all Magic attacks. But they can be easily torn apart by physical attacks. Meaning if you use Requip and summon a sword, it can damage them. But if you try and blast them with fire, it will have no effect.
» XIV. Temperance Using this card causes Aethereus's target to seemingly become (temporarily) insane. In truth, it causes the voice of their (the enemy's) conscience to speak loudly and clearly within their head, driving them to the point of insanity, but not making them insane. If the person seems to have no conscience, then it is instead Aethereus's speaking in their head. Effects, either way, are temporary.
» XV. The Devil Using this card causes Aethereus to undergo temporary changes into a Demon, much like Satan Soul. There are 72 possibilities of Demon he can turn into, based off of the Demons in the Ars Goetia (Lesser Key of Solomon). The results are random and temporary, but always powerful. Though it makes Aethereus weak to any form of Devil Slayer Magic.
» XVI. The Tower Using this card causes a large, labyrinthine tower to appear under Aethereus, rocketing him skywards and trapping him at the top. It's impossible to break through any part of the tower from the outside (not the inside), so the only thing one can do is go though the entrance. On each floor (composed of 15) are strange, shadowy creatures. Though this tower is only temporary, it acts a defensive mechanism. Those in the tower when it shatters will all be standing safely on the ground when this happens.
» XVII. The Star Upon using this card, Aethereus is able to summon a literal meteor to fall from the sky and crash upon the battlefield. It causes wide-range destruction, and is able to kill any too close in the vicinity. Though once the destruction finishes ravaging everything, it all seems to return to normal, and the meteor disappears. But damage caused will stay with those afflicted, as will the deaths.
» XVIII. The Moon The effects of this card depend upon the moon's current phase, making it useful only at nighttime. During a full moon, Aethereus's power, both physical and magical, is quadrupled. During a gibbous moon (waning or waxing), his power is tripled. During a quarter moon (either), his power is doubled. During a crescent moon, his power multiplies by one and a half. During a new moon, there is no change. During a lunar eclipse, his power fluctuates wildly.
» XIX. The Sun The effects of this card depend on the sun's current positioning, making it useful from sunup until sundown. Directly at noon, Aethereus's physical and magical power is quadrupled. From midmorning to midafternoon, his power is tripled. During morning/afternoon, his power is doubled. At early morning and sunset, his power is multiplied by one and a half. Whenever the sun isn't in the sky, there is no change. During a solar eclipse, his power fluctuates wildly.
» XX. Judgement Using this card summons an incredibly powerful, five-layered glyph, which summons a ray that reduces all it touches to nothing. This is not something to be taken lightly as, even though the ray cannot be moved, it's rather large, and covers a wide area. It'd be best not to be anywhere in front of Aethereus when this spell is used.
◎◎ Sub Magic: Yakuma Eighteen War Gods [18] ◎◎
◆ Yakuma Eighteen War Gods Magic is an exceedingly dangerous form of Caster Magic which allows the user to call upon the powers of the now-deceased Yakuma Clan, specifically the Eighteen War Gods that are worshiped by such a group — each one possessing overwhelming strength and battle prowess unmatched by any other. It's said to be one of the most powerful magics to exist, making use of the very gods themselves to dominate the battlefield; there are only a few magicians who're able to make use of this magic effectively.
BASIC SPELLS » ----- -----
ADVANCED SPELLS » Yagdo Rigora To cast this Magic, Aethereus moves his arms in a circular motion while reciting an incantation, after which he spreads his arms wide and summoning a stone, which then erupts into a momentous explosion of light that ravages whatever may lie in its vicinity.
» Ikusa-Tsunagi Aethereus positions his arms perpendicular as he recites the incantation, slowly moving his arms forward. Like Yagdo Rigora, this spell summons a metal, god-like effigy with intricate designs on its body that wields a sword. Upon its completion, the sword is swung down as a massive wave of light emerges, destroying everything in it's path. The wave reaches a height and depth of 50ft., individually, a width of 20ft. and a range of 50ft.
» Fomen Tempvernam To initiate the spell, Aethereus positions his arms down, slowly moving them up while chanting. An ice, god-like effigy with intricate designs on its body and praying hands appears shortly afterwards. This causes a massive deluge to fall, weighing down all that are caught in it as it floods the area.
» Ignius Clamante Moving his arms up, parallel to his body, Aethereus will begin chanting the incantation. A ruby, god-like effigy with intricate designs on its body and open palms is summoned. This statue allows Aethereus to control a massive fire that is so cold it burns. It can't be extinguished with water, and will actually freeze it. Contact with the flames will cause ice burns; prolonged exposure causing frostbite.
» Petral Solidimus Aethereus crosses his arms with balled fist while reciting the incantation. Summons a large gold, god-like effigy with intricate designs on its body that is colliding its fists. This colossal statue is at Aethereus's complete control, making use of it's massive fist to crush enemies and it's sturdy body to take blows.
» Vi Caelum With his left arm up and his right arm down, Aethereus rotates his arms until his arm's positions are in reverse. An emerald, god-like effigy with intricate designs on its body, appears while holding a broken staff in both hands. A massive vortex of powerful wind and lightning traps both Aethereus and his targets in the eye of the storm. Aethereus can use much more intense lightning magic as long as he is inside the vortex.
» Impetu Pondus Aethereus moves both arms above his head, before moving them down, as if pushing an object, while chanting. When finished, an amethyst, god-like effigy covered in intricate designs appears from a portal. This causes the gravity in the area to either become heavier, or lighter. This also nullifies any gravity attacks currently in effect that aren't Ultimate-level.
» Ventosus-Ieunium Aethereus holds both arms out in front of him and, while chanting, quickly move them out to his sides. Upon doing so, an aquamarine, god-like effigy covered in intricate designs appears. The effigy then speeds around the battlefield, creating a large tornado to trap enemies (and Aethereus himself) in. Mini tornadoes are sent from the "wall", which hits everyone, even Aethereus.
» Elido Terrenum Aethereus holds both hands just in front of his chest, balling them both into fists and, while chanting, slowly pushes one towards the ground. Upon doing so, a topaz, god-like effigy appears from the ground, two hammers on its back. This causes the area within one hundred feet around the user to suddenly become an earthquake zone, causing stalagmites to appear from the ground and hit or pierce those standing above them.
» Clipeum Parma Aethereus moves both arms in front of his face, holding them there even while chanting. Doing so causes a silver, god-like effigy with intricate designs and holding a shield to appear from a portal in front of the user. This creates a near impenetrable barrier around the effigy and Aethereus, but leaves the shield out of the barrier, The main way to get through the barrier is by breaking the shield, thus making the effigy, and barrier, disappear.
» Relinquit Aetherium Aethereus moves both arms above him and, while chanting, open his hands so his palms face towards the sky. Doing so causes a pearl, god-like effigy with intricate designs to appear next to Aethereus. This causes everyone within a one hundred foot radius to be temporarily teleported to an alternate dimension, where any Space based Magic (Requip, Celestial Spirits, etc.) to be rendered useless (unlike Rules of the Arena, there is no consequence for trying to use Space-based Magic, it just won't work). The effigy can either be destroyed, or you can wait until Aethereus's Magic Power depletes to return back to the normal dimension.
» Pluere Acidulus Aethereus moves both hands in front of his mouth, cupping his hands as if trying to shout to someone, while chanting. Doing so summons a Peridot, god-like effigy with intricate designs to appear from a portal from behind the user. This causes a rain of acid to fall from the sky in a fifty foot radius. This acid burns through anything non-magical, and can actually kill someone if they're not careful.
» Crystallos Fluctus Aethereus pulls his left arm back, and pushes his right arm forward. While chanting, he pulls his right arm back, and moves his left arm forward. Doing this causes a sapphire, god-like effigy to appear from a portal beside them. This causes a wave of water to splash around, before suddenly freezing and trapping or piercing anyone as it freezes. It then thaws, just to freeze again, doing this a few more times before disappearing.
» Massa-Conflugratio Aethereus balls both hands into fists in front of his chest and, while chanting, moves them upwards towards the sky as he opens his hands. Doing this causes a garnet, god-like effigy with intricate designs to appear behind the user from a portal in the ground. This causes mini volcanoes (about the same height as the average man) to pop up around the battlefield in a fifty foot radius. All of them then erupt at once, causing lava to shoot up into the sky and fall like a rain, filling the battlefield. The lava disappears when the effigy does, as do the volcanoes.
» Polus Perdoceo Aethereus punches both fists slowly together in front of his chest while chanting. Doing this causes a bronze, god-like effigy with intricate designs with a sword in each hand to appear from a portal behind Aethereus. This causes what seems to be an endless amount of metal weapons behind Aethereus and the effigy (think Gate of Babylon from Fate/Stay), all of which either fly at Aethereus's foe and break apart, or hover in the air, able to be grabbed and used to battle with. It can also cause a tornado of metal weapons which moves towards the enemy/enemies.
» Tenebrae Framea Aethereus moves his hands into an upside down praying motion while chanting. Doing this causes an onyx, god-like effigy with intricate designs to appear behind Aethereus from a portal. This causes the entire battlefield to be covered in darkness (about one hundred and fifty feet), allowing only Aethereus to be able to see clearly. This allows him to strike from the shadows, unseen by any trapped within the darkness. It also nullifies the usage of any non-Ultimate Light Magic.
» Adtonitus-Objex Aethereus moves both arms above his head while chanting, slowly moving them down in the lightning bolt motion (symbol). This causes a citrine, god-like effigy covering in intricate designs and holding a lightning bolt to appear above Aethereus from a portal. This causes dark clouds to form in a whirlpool shape overhead, which then sends multiple, powerful lightning bolts raining down from above. All these lightning bolts hit turn to nothing but ash.
» Crepusculum Venberare Aethereus moves both of his hands in front of his body, left hand facing up in a regular praying motion, and right hand facing down in an upside down praying motion. This causes a half-diamond half-onyx, god-like effigy covered in intricate designs to appear, holding a heart (<3) in its left hand, and a skull in its right hand. This effigy sends orbs of light and darkness mixed all over the battlefield, with no true target in its sight. Anything these orbs touch turn that object into its opposite (a living tree to a dead tree, or a good person evil, and vice versa). Or it turns them into monstrous beasts (a dog into a hellhound). But one must be careful, as the orbs effect even Aethereus.
◎ Celestial Spirit Magic is a type of Magic in which the user summons Celestial Spirits by opening their gates through the use of Celestial Spirit Gate Keys. These Keys are separated into six classes: the more common Bronze and Silver Keys. and the rarer Gold, Platinum, Jade, and Black Keys. Keys for Celestial Spirits are counted in Units (collectively without regard of coloration), and a Celestial Spirit Mage is noted by how many Units they have obtained.
◆ Personality: Taurus is a very perverted and fun-loving character. However, when the time calls for it, he can be focused to protect his summoner as he becomes quite the formidable warrior. He's also know to have a slightly masochistic side.
◆ Mᴀɢɪᴄ Tʏᴘᴇ: Holder
◎◎ [Magic: Master Axemanship Specialist] ◎◎
◎ Taurus is a melee-oriented Celestial Spirit who utilizes an axe in battle, and, despite being sometimes portrayed as comically clumsy due to his perverse tendencies, has displayed great mastery in the use of such weapon: his attacks are not only powerful and capable of breaking through most defenses, due to his high physical prowess, but also fast, with him managing to assault opponents at high speed as soon as he's summoned. Not only that, Taurus also displayed uncanny accuracy in wielding this signature weapon: he was shown capable of flawlessly blocking a wide barrage of Magic Bullets shot from a member of Naked Mummy before they could reach a child simply by swinging his axe rapidly in a circular motion, demonstrating extreme maneuverability.
» Rampage Taurus jumps into the air and swings his axe. He subsequently lowers the axe on the ground with both of his arms, generating an earthquake on contact, which moves in a straight line towards the target, splitting the ground and blasting rocks in the air. Whether the extent of this power is based on Taurus' own physical capability or involves Magic is uncertain.
» Sandstorm Axe Aldebaran A combo attack used alongside Scorpio; Scorpio attacks with Sand Buster, then Taurus uses his axe to control it and send it to attack the opponent.
» Wool Typhoon A combo attack used alongside Aries; Aries attacks with Fluffy Wool 100%, then after, Taurus uses the Labrys, spinning and attacking, that causes the wool to whirl including the opponent.
» Tension Max Taurus swings his labrys with his immense strength and attack his targets.
◆ Personality: Aries is very shy and polite. She frequently apologizes (sumimasen/Gomen'nasai), regardless of whether or not she is truly at fault. She is quite easily frightened. Despite this, she is very obedient and willing to fight for her owner.

◎◎ [Magic: Wool Magic] ◎◎
◎ Aries' Magic allows her to create and manipulate pink wool that covers opponents by distracting them, sending them into a relaxed and comfortable state. Aries is able to create enough wool to entangle many opponents at once, as well as use it underwater.
» Wool Bomb Aries conjures a massive amount of magical wool around her opponents, in which she can ambush them in any given direction and lull them into a relaxed state, bringing the battle to her advantage.
» Wool Shot Aries blasts little bursts of pink wool at her foes which attach to them, and, like her Wool Bomb attack, feels warm and relaxing to the recipient.
» Wool Wall Aries conjures a thick cloud of pink wool which protects her from attacks, and like her other wool attack, feels very soft.
» Wool Cushion Aries conjures a massive woolen cushion that spirals from the ground. It acts as an airbag which allows those falling from high ground to remain unharmed.
» 100% Fluffy-Fluffy Wool Aries releases a thick flurry of wool towards the opponents, which blinds and obscures their vision and causes them to wheeze.
◆ Personality: Sagittarius is very formal, and shows great respect for his owner. He strives to carry out the orders he's given quickly and to the best of his capabilities. However, he has a habit of taking all his requests literally, leading him to misinterpret certain orders. In addition, he has a habit of uttering the phrase "moshi moshi", which literally means "hello" in Japanese.

◎◎ [Magic: Master Archer] ◎◎
◎ Sagittarius, living up to the theme of his constellation, employs bow and arrows in battle, with his skills as a Celestial Spirit lying in their use. He has proven himself to be an extremely proficient archer: he was shown capable of easily destroying Bickslow's dolls, small objects which maneuver at high speed in mid air, with his arrows, demonstrating both pinpoint accuracy and great speed; such traits were further proven when the Celestial Spirit blocked one of Drake's bullets with a projectile of his, reciprocating the same action that the Sylph Labyrinth sniper previously did, and leaving him amazed. He is able to nock and shoot more than one arrow at the same time, firing a barrage of arrows at once towards Kain Hikaru. He also seems to be very resourceful with his archery, as shown when he was able to create fire by shooting electrical equipment so that Natsu Dragneel could replenish his strength; a feat which he claimed to be "mere child's play" for his arrows.
» Fire Arrow The user must channel their magic through the arrow, causing it to combust into fire. While still retaining the shape of an arrow, every inch of it is now fire and acts as such.
» Ice Arrow The user must channel their magic through the arrow, making it freeze solid and look as if it was carved out of ice. Probably one of the more frail arrows; however, it will freeze what it hits by spreading its ice.
» Thunder Arrow The user must channel their magic through the arrow, firing it into the clouds. There, the arrow becomes lightning and will strike it's designated target so long as they are within the sight of the clouds.
» Sky Arrow The user must channel their magic through the arrow, commanding the wind itself around the arrow. Once the target is chosen, the arrow will seek them out at high speeds, unhindered by the wind and rather using to make impossible turns.
» Steel Arrow The user must channel their magic through the arrow, turning the projectile shiny and silver. It maybe be the heaviest and travel the closest range of the others, but it is the strongest in that it cannot be steered off course so easily. Additionally, it acts as a lightning rod to draw electricity to it and increase its power.
» Celestial Arrow Converting all their magic power, the user will begin to glow and become something of an ethereal being. They must use their arms as if they were firing a bow, taking aim at their target. Once done, they will transform into a bright arrow and launch themselves in that direction. It is a final attack that can even pierce barriers of magic because it is an arrow that eats through magic. Being hit by this arrow will hurt like any other arrow but also inflict "damage" to the victim's remaining magic.
◆ Personality: Libra is a very quiet Spirit. She barely talks and always seems calm and serene, however, she quickly obeys her owner's orders without questioning them. However, she seems to enjoy having others kneeling to her and obeying what she says.

◎◎ [Magic: Gravity Change] ◎◎
◎ Libra uses this type of Gravity Magic which can alter either her target's gravity or her own. She is also able to change the body figure of anyone she wishes.
» Fall The user spreads both arms, with the index and middle finger of each hand being splayed apart. Having done this, the gravity of the intended location is then increased, disabling any foes within. This particular spell can also be used to cancel out other Magics, even one as powerful as Fairy Glitter, one of the three legendary Fairy Magics, although at the time it was cast by an inexperienced user who was unable to use its full potential.
» Black Hole The user places one of their hands over the other, with the fingers of both bent, and then clasps them together, creating a dark orb between the caster and their opponent. This orb generates its own gravitational field, drawing in everything around itself, and also appears to increase in strength and size after a short period of time. However, the orb can be shattered with a sufficiently powerful Magic, such as Crush.
» Gravity Change A Magic that allows its users to alter the gravity of a person, either themselves or someone else. Users can lower the target's gravity, enabling them to walk on walls, or raise the target's gravity, rendering them incapable of moving. The user can also change their body figure temporarily by using this. The user can also change others' body with this magic.
◆ Personality: Yin is, at first, a very depressing and sad person. She can only view the negative side of things, and brings others down with her sometimes. This is caused by her mental state having been damaged. She's also very lonely, isolating herself completely from others at times. There's even times when she won't even try and communicate with a person, completely ignoring them. She's just pretty much someone that no one wants to be around, and vice versa.
But, if you manage to break her out of her shell, and help her through everything she has been through, she'll be one of the greatest friends you can have. Hidden under that icy shell of hers is a compassionate, caring, friendly, and funny individual. She'd be able to brighten up your day just by being near, and illuminating your darkness with her smile. You'd be able to see the actual, and true side of her.

◎◎ [Magic: Abyssal Chaos] ◎◎
◎ This Magic seems to have no true given form, and seems to look like nothing more than some strange, teal aura surrounded by shadows. The Magic is a void that devours and crushes everything. Due to this, the user can absorb physical matter and attacks of any type by sucking it into the void. Similar to a black hole, the user can absorb things inside a vortex. It seems that it does not completely compress and annihilate that which is sucked in as an actual black hole would do, but rather creates some form of space where things are stored. Due to it being nothing but shadows, the user is capable of morphing it into different shapes, such as a weapon, the head of a beast, or even huge claws. It all seems to depend upon the user's own imagination.
» Void Wall The user expands the surrounding space and opens a rift in the dimensions to conjure a force field that returns a portion of incoming damage to the attacker.
» Fragments of Pain Attack unsuspecting victims with dark spires summoned from the ground below. The spires deals more damage as the target is pushed back along its path, up to twenty feet.
» Voidal Beam Rupture time and space and materialize The Void's chaos to attack targets ahead in the form of a beam. The attack ignores effects of guard stances.
» Pillar of Chaos Unleash a rushing torrent of dark energy that was given form with the twisted power of creation in the form of a chaotic pillar. The violent burst of energy consumes everything in its wake, within ten feet of where it's used.
» Abyssal Chain Latch a bounding chain made from the concentrated power of Chaos that allows the user to take their enemy's vital force. Mid-Level Chaos element magic.
» Abyssal Fragments Distort reality and corrupt your surroundings with the power of The Void. Unleash fragments of the broken space in frenzied chaos. The released power explodes and deals damage to enemies on contact.
» Mouth of the Void Release all corruption from within and plunge the world in absolute chaos. Doing this causes the Eye of The Void to appear behind the user, effectively acting as a black hole, and sucking in and destroying/damaging all enemies and objects within a thirty foot radius. Does not damage those in the user's "party". Anything that may have survived is spit back out.
» End of the World The user calls upon a massive scythe, created using the hidden power of chaos, to rip the dimensions apart and open a fissure to the nether reaches of The Void. The overflowing chaos and malice from The Void pours in through the fissure and engulfs everything within fifty feet of the user into The Void. Chances of survival are slim, unless countered by a powerful light or stopped by a powerful shielding.
◆ Personality: Chen is a very lively, intelligent, and excitable Celestial Spirit. He can clearly tell right from wrong, and is upright and frank. However, he is also a bit arrogant and impatient. Chen also tends to be overly confident, and hate hypocrisy, gossip and slander. He is not afraid of difficulties but hate to be used or controlled by others (with the exception of his Master, of course).
◆ Mᴀɢɪᴄ Tʏᴘᴇ: Caster
◎◎ [Magic: Wind Magic] ◎◎
◎ This variation of Air Magic enables its users to generate wind, as well as to manipulate the wind around them at their will. Wind Magic grants them high offensive power, allowing them to assault enemies in different ways: the most prominent aspect of such Magic lies in the ability to give the wind cutting properties, manifesting it in the form of fast-moving air blades which are employed at mid-to-long range; they can also generate powerful gusts of wind to inflict blunt damage upon enemies and send them flying away, and even form hurricanes of various scales, which, in addition to their rotational power, seem to retain his wind's signature sharpness. Many of this Magic's spells seem to require special gestures which are performed with one or both hands, depending on the attack's power and magnitude. However, users also seems capable of producing minor, yet accurate, blasts without the need of moving their hands. Users can also employ the wind on themselves, using it to levitate and traverse over long distances, as well as to cover themselves in an armor of wind, boosting both their offense and defense.
» Art of the Wind Blades This attack amplifies sharp waves of vacuum created by lightning-fast movements of the arms. The blades of vacuum radiate from the caster, slashing to pieces any organic matter in the vicinity. Clearly, this attack is most useful when Chen is surrounded by enemies. Although not designed for pinpoint attacks, its lethality should not be underestimated.
» Wind Scar This attack, when used, sends a a large burst of air at the opponent. This burst is made up of hundreds of blade-like winds, causing them to shred whatever they happen to hit. The "scar" part comes from when, if it hits the ground, it leaves gashes in the earth
» Multivortex Chen swings his arms rapidly, creating "shockwaves" of wind that fly quickly at the enemy. The standard form does nothing more than cause slight scratches on the enemy. More focused, but smaller slashes can possibly cut through them, if it hits just right.
» Sky Pillars Chen can summon pillars of wind to surround him, having them act as vacuums that can suck up anyone or anything that comes near him, spitting them out in a different direction. This is more of a defensive technique than it is an attack technique. It can be negated by causing the flow of wind to go opposite the direction the pillars are.
» Bomb Thrust Chen makes a small orb of wind in his palm, charging it with more and more wind until it's about the size of his head. He then thrusts his arm forward, causing the orb to explode into gale force winds. It's very powerful and lethal, but not that difficult to dodge unless you're moving at regular walking speed.
» Fujin Air Bullet To use this attack, Chen will first take a deep breath, and then pound his stomach to apply external pressure, the power of which they uses to shoot a highly compressed air ball from their mouth. The expelled air ball is mighty enough to hollow out the ground, and level an entire forest. The "bullets" explode the moment they reach their target, dealing an enormous amount of damage, as well as leveling anything in its path. Chen is able to fire multiple of these in rapid succession, having a certain level of control regarding the size of the bullets.
◆ Personality: Mao usually impress others with an image of tenderness, grace and sensitivity. She is romantic in relationships, having a high demand in life quality. She likes to avoid arguing with others, and has a capability of converting an enemy into a friend. Mao is homebody and hospitable, and treats everyone just like family. She can work with speed and efficiency, and doesn't anger very easily. But she seems to hesitate with a lot of things, which usually costs the battle for her.
◆ Mᴀɢɪᴄ Tʏᴘᴇ: Caster
◎◎ [Magic: Light Magic] ◎◎
◎ It is a Magic in which the caster is able to manipulate and utilize light in various ways. Occasionally, a certain technique, usually involving the hands, is used to cast a Light spell. When used for offense, the Magic can take the form of a sphere-like object that can be ejected at the opponent or as a beam that can be blasted. Light can also be emitted from the caster's body; depending on the brightness or heat that the light emits, it can be capable enough to blind an enemy or cause the surroundings to explode. Light Magic can also be manifested for multiple usage in defense.
» Giant Wrath Mao releases a continuous surge of destructive light, which destroys everything in its path.
» Rain of Light Mao moves her hands in various ways, ultimately placing her index and middle fingers on her forehead and sequentially swiping them forward along with her other hand. From both extended palms, Mao fires multiple rays of Light Magic towards the target.
» Celestial Light Maosummons orbs of light from her hands, which she can send flying at her enemies. The name comes from the fact that they shine like stars (though they won't blind you), and if they make contact, they seem to be scalding to the touch, causing horrible burn marks. Though it is also possible to be blinded from these, if they hit you directly in the face. The orbs are able to maneuver on their own, but Mao is still able to control them.
» Celestial Devour This attack seems to be more for trapping or holding, instead of attack. Mao holds her hands out towards the opponent, chains coming from her hands. If the opponent gets wrapped in these chains, the chains begin to grow, forming together to create a bubble. This bubble is made from light, but still somehow allows the captive to be able to see outside. But it's impossible to see inside (unless you're Mao).
» Angelic Descent Mao jumps into the air, cloaking her body in light. She then descends downwards in a spinning motion, seeming to form into a sort of terrifying drill. Even if this attack misses the intended target, it causes her to burrow underground, and release spikes from below the ground, impaling anything that they may come into contact with.
» Gauntlet of the Gods Mao covers both of her fists with radiant light, empowering them with the element. She can then use her fists to punch, slam, grab, or crush her targets. And given the fact that her fists are covered with the Light element, she can deal extra damage. So it's basically the element of Light plus brute strength.
◆ Personality: Si seems to be able to maintain a calm demeanor around most people, seeming harmless as a fly. Though those that know him can tell this is pretty much just a guise to his true personality. Or at least, the horrible side of it. His more... demonic side. His more normal personality consists of the funny and wise guy acts, not being able to seem like a cold-blooded and ruthless killer. Though it wouldn't be smart to anger him, or you will be seeing that side of him. He also does seem to enjoy making those closer to him laugh. Especially children, even if he doesn't know them.
Then there's his... demonic side. When he becomes like this, he turns cruel, sadistic, selfish, and insane beyond measure. His delight comes from the suffering of others, both mentally and physically. And he enjoys seeing his enemies suffer in this way. He provokes others for his own amusement, and enjoys torturing them in various ways. This personality seems to be more unforgiving, revealing the hidden wild side of Si. But wildness isn't always a good thing.

◎◎ [Magic: Chains of Agony] ◎◎
◎ A strange and mysterious power that allows the user to control the strange Ouroboros chains. When used, the magic appears as black, surrounded by a different green energy. The chains that appear also seem to be modeled like this. The strange and chaotic power seems to be able to allow its user to summon multiple Ouroboros Chains from black portals, surrounded by a green energy. Though it seems they can only do so when holding the Chains of Agony in their hands. Without it, they can only summon a few portals at once, greatly handicapping them.
» Ouroboros Chains This attack allows Si to summon the Chains of Ouroboros from a black portal, lined with a strange green energy. Si can either hold out his hand and send the Ouroboros chain straight out, or even work it in with other attacks. Such as when comboing an opponent, they can send the chain from any direction. It's also possible to use as a kind of grappling mechanism, whether to pull himself over to an opponent, or his opponent over to him. Or even to reach somewhere higher without the need for jumping.
» Retaliating Fang Si slashes down on the opponent with his Chains of Ouroboros, then sweeps them up with it. Forcing the opponent into a coil of chains in midair while Si gestures crazily. The opponent is then launched after the attack finishes. This attack can be fatal, if the opponent is instead slowly crushed within the chains. It is possible to break free though, or have someone break you out if you're not powerful enough.
» Basilisk's Vortex Si summons multiple Ouroboros chain heads, which then start spinning in a vortex shape. Depending on what is "devoured" by the vortex it can either become bigger be stopped completely or destroyed. If someone is caught up in the vortex, the Ouroboros will shred them apart, causing multiple wounds. One must then either break their way out, or find a way to counter the attack themselves. Otherwise all that may be left is their bones.
» Serpentine Barrage Si summons multiple Ouroboros chains to fly at their target. While the target is (possibly) distracted, Si summons dark energy balls, surrounded with a green aura, to their hands. Si then proceeds to throw these balls at his opponent. Si doesn't exactly have to aim to hit, so long as the ball lands within five feet of the target. From these balls "hatch" more Ouroboros chains, which the fly at the target. This attack is pretty much a way to attack from all sides.
» Coils of the Dragon Serpent Using the Chains of Ouroboros, Si wraps his victim up, making them unable to move unless they break the chain. If they are unable to do so, three large phantom "serpents" appear from three separate portals. They seem to be dark green in color, with bright green glowing eyes. Their fangs become blades and they all move quickly past the victim, cutting and slicing them. The end of this attack consists of the three serpentine creatures forming into one being, and seeming to devour the opponent, by falling down on them from the sky. The force of this fall is powerful enough to leave a small crater around the victim.
» Hungry Darkness of 1,000 Souls A large amount of Ouroboros chains rise from the ground around Si in a cage formation. If they connect with the opponent, Si bursts with energy as several snakes rise up from the ground, coalescing into a giant snake that waits to deliver a fatal bite to the opponent. Si then opens a large portal behind themselves, as dozens more Ouroboros Chains come out of it, aiming at their target. The main objective here is to wrap the opponent up, making it either difficult for them to move, or unable to move. If this proves difficult, then the chains will capture the opponent, letting Si attack them in the air by flying to them back and forth with kicks and knife slashes, using the chains as leverage, then slamming them to the ground with a massive snake via a diving attack from above. Only then does the large snake deliver its fatal bite, diving down on the opponent. This attack is only used when Si plans to kill someone.
◆ Personality: Yinglong is an energetic, cheerful young man who enjoys the company of others. Most of the time, he appears to be childish and an attention-seeker, though he can be wise and mature when he wants to. Despite the fact that he chooses not to fight, he always stands on the front lines to protect everyone from danger. He can easily discern what is happening to a person and even has foresight on them. He also appears to know more than what he is willing to tell, and may appear deceitful because of it. However, he actually waits for the right time to tell things as he can’t easily show or express it to others given his circumstances of being one of the five Jade Keys.

◎◎ [Magic: Heavenly Body Magic] ◎◎
◎ It is a powerful form of Magic that allows the caster to use the properties of many astronomical objects for battle, preferably in offense. The properties of Heavenly Body Magic rely primarily on astronomical objects like meteors or the generation and manipulation of the energy of stars from their own body. The caster can create powerful light blasts or beams of high destructive power, reminiscent of starlight, at their opponents. This light is not the only substance used, however. The caster is also capable of using the power of gravity against the opponent for destructive usage; the strength can be comparable to the effects caused by a black hole. The use of such Magic can be used to enhance the caster's own skills drastically for various purposes, such as shrouding them in Magic that can increase their speed significantly.
» Meteor Yinglong's body is surrounded by Magic, allowing him to move through the air at incredible speed. Even if someone could detect his trajectory, it is near impossible to catch him. With his speed, Yinglong assaults his opponents with quick but powerful melee attacks. Yinglong can also wear a special suit under his clothing to better utilize this type of Magic
» Grand Chariot While in the air, Yinglong places both hands on top of each other, with the top hand having only the index and middle fingers spread out. Seven Magic seals are then summoned in front of Yinglong and connect together to make what appears to be a constellation. Each Magic seal then releases a powerful light blast down on the opponent, forming the same pattern on the ground before exploding. The seals can also be drawn in the sky before being cast, bombarding an opponent with countless beams of light. Apparently this spell's destructive capabilities rival that of an actual meteor's.
» Altairis Yinglong crosses his arms above their head to begin casting the spell. As he prepares to fire the spell, all nearby shadows are drawn towards him, forming a small black orb which rapidly grows in size and also gains small white lights inside it, similar to the night sky. Yinglong then unleashes the orb towards the target. The orb appears to be incredibly dense, and may hold a tremendous amount of gravity to crush the opponent. Its nature is comparable to a black hole, due to its incredible pull on the surrounding materials, people, and light.
» Sema Yinglong bows down and points his hands downwards, with all the fingers closed except the index and middle fingers. Yinglong then begins to slowly move his right hand until it points upwards, causing the clouds above him to begin circling around, forming a cyclone as the skies darken. From the center of the swirling formation, a glowing orb begins to form, growing in size until a humongous meteor emerges, falling quickly to earth towards the intended target. When the meteor hits, the force is strong enough to create a large explosion, which engulfs a wide area and releases a strong hurricane of air, also leaving a large crater in its wake.
» Pleiades After performing the Magic's signature stance, six rays of light fall from the sky to the attack Yinglong's target in consecutive fashion.
» Jiu Leixing Yinglong creates nine swords behind himself (made from Celestial energy) that he can then direct to strike the target of his choice.
◆ Personality: Canis Major seems to be the true definition of lone wolf. His favorite treat is whole cows. Canis Major values his independence, and he has a high opinion of himself, thinking himself and his Master stronger than any other. Canis Major displays a high intelligence and has came up with successful strategies to defeat or outmaneuver opponents it couldn't just overpower.
◆ Mᴀɢɪᴄ Tʏᴘᴇ: Caster
◎◎ [Magic: Titanium Magic] ◎◎
◎ Titanium Magic is pretty much like Iron or any other metal, but is supposedly one of the strongest type. But one simply just can't make titanium, of course. They must draw it from the earth itself to be able to use it, or use magic seals to summon forth "vessels". If one has a weapon made of titanium, they can possibly change the shape of it.
» Titanium Seismic Tremor Canis Major performs this spell by summoning a sword out of a magic seal and grasping the blade (in his hands if human, mouth if wolf). Leaping into the air, he lands in a knelt position stabbing the sword into the ground to cause a chain of metal eruptions underneath the ground causing a chain of explosions to shoot out from the ground in all directions besides those going up and those going down only in a circle range. The sword disappears once the spell has been used.
» Titanium Scrap Barrage Canis Major casts a magic seal around his feet as a curtain of titanium metal shoots out in a circle above him. Once the metal is fully summoned, the large mass shoots out in all or one direction in a flurry of metal bullets. The spell can be used for short multiple barrages or one long and deadly barrage.
» Titanium Spear Vanguard Canis Major does not need to use a magical seal to use this spell. By summoning titanium from around him, Canis Major can form a spherical barrier around himself to block incoming attacks and can fire long spears from all around the barrier to injure those who would be foolish enough to get too close.
» Titanium Maelstrom Rage The user casts out their magic seal in front of them, summoning a long titanium sword from it. Once the sword is gripped the sword will glow the color of the metal used to create it. The sword can be thrown like a spear or simply swung to cast this magic. The sword if thrown will shoot straight for a target's feet and impaling the ground. Once that is done the sword shatters as dozens of small blades appear all around the target or targets and erupt into a frenzied blade storm doing continuous damage before disappearing.
» Titanium Kyuubi Assault The user casts multiple seals on the ground at the max of five and from each seal a Nine-Tailed Fox made out of metal appears to aid the caster in battle whether it would be to attack a target with melee attacks shoot metal blasts at the target block attacks or just to fight along side the user in battle. Each fox has a voice and a mind of its own so those that mistaken them for just mindless minions are fatally mistaken.
◆ Personality: Cassiopeia is very loyal to her Master, as most Celestial Spirits are loyal to their owners, and promised to do everything within her powers to protect them. Though she means well, she tends to go about things in the wrong way, (i.e. destroying a wall rather than opening the door next to it or diverting rivers rather than using the bridge).
◆ Mᴀɢɪᴄ Tʏᴘᴇ: Holder
◎◎ [Magic: Sword Magic] ◎◎
◎ A Magic which, as the name itself suggests, is focused around the use of swords, with those weapons acting as mediums for the user to perform particular attacks. Many of such moves are shown capable of going past the physical reach of the blade employed in their use, threatening foes at short-to-mid range. Some Sword Magic techniques seem to involve the use of elements commonly found employed by elemental forms of Magic, such as Fire Magic or Water Magic; in addition, the user can also remotely maneuver several swords at the same time. A number of different blades can be employed for such Magic, with the most recurring ones being longswords and katana. In some cases, certain moves might even involve the change of the sword's properties, such as its length.
» Blumenblatt Cassiopeia requips a fair amount of swords, and then charges at her target, slicing them with the two swords in her hand. As she ruses past, the requipped swords will follow, acting as a secondary strike.
» Circle Sword Cassiopeia requips swords and has them circle around her by utilizing the command, "Dance, My Swords". The swords then begin spinning rapidly around Cassiopeia and then she sends them flying towards her opponent(s) in a disc formation. Upon impact, the swords separate and fly in different directions dealing great damage.
» Trinity Sword Cassiopeia slashes at her opponent with her sword in a delta formation.
» Moon Flash Cassopeia dashes by her opponent, swinging her sword at them in a cross formation.
» Pentagram Sword Cassiopeia swings at her opponent with her sword in a pentagram formation.
» Yasha's Empty Flash Cassiopeia slashes with extreme precision and is able to slice whatever she is attacking without touching it with a blade. It is also able to cut any organ inside the victim's body without severing clothes and/or skin.
◆ Personality: Cetus does not display much of a personality other than he seems to be a very reliable and loyal spirit, as he often tells his Master what he is doing and asking if it is okay. He often says the phrase "Thank You Very Much!" after his sentences.

◎◎ [Magic: Water Magic] ◎◎
◎ Water Magic is a form of Magic revolving around the use of water, which is placed under the user's command for them to employ for various purposes. Depending on its use, the physical properties of water can be manipulated to the user's advantage; large masses of such liquid are shown to possess remarkable force, being usable to inflict blunt damage upon targets by sweeping them away with water. Users can also use water as means to enhance the power of whatever weapons they may be using in battle.
» Water Claw Cetus slashes his water-covered hands, creating a torrent of water that engulfs his target.
» Water Cyclone Cetus forms a circular torrent of water in front of his body hands and uses the cyclone of water to attack his target. This spell appears to be strong enough to match an attack by the Celestial Spirit Aquarius.
» Water Nebula Two waves of water rotate around each other and form a helix that blast Cetus's opponent into the air with tremendous force. The number of waves actually vary depending on the power of the user, and up to twelve can appear.
» Water Slicer By swiping his arm or body, Cetus can send scythe-like blades of water at his intended target, which are powerful enough to cleanly slice through solid rock. It can also be used as a form of defense to intercept an attack.
» Water Jigsaw Cetus transforms part of his body into a swirling mass of water slicers that can slice his opponents like a saw.
» Water Cane Cetus transforms his hand/arm into a whip composed of water to strike his opponent.
◆ Personality: Coma has an odd personality. At first glance, she acts rude and informal towards everyone She is constantly cold, always looking down upon all that she meets. However, when treated with kindness, she can become kind and sweet at the drop of a hat. Many refer to her as a "cactus". Coma tends to switch from "cranky" to "sweet" in reaction to the actions of select people or adverse scenarios; the "sweet" side usually only comes out when someone has acted in a way to trigger it- making it rather difficult for people to tolerate her. Coma always has a air of grumpy pessimism about her, and all in all, Coma conceals a sweet side with a cranky exterior.

◎◎ [Magic: Attraction Magic] ◎◎
◎ This magic causes people of both genders to become infatuated with the user. It is also able to influence the target's mental condition somewhat. Her Master is strangely immune to it's effects, though it does make others more willing to do things for Coma. This is common to those particularly in love with someone. The Charm Magic was derived from witnessing this magic, but it is weaker in certain areas.
» Love Kiss A simple and basic technique in which Coma Berenices blows the target a kiss that leaves a trail of hearts. Should these hearts connect, the target will immediately become infatuated and be unable to attack the user.
» Love Burst Allows Coma Berenices to create a flurry of hearts that surround her in a full sphere, creating a sort of defense. While being sturdy, it has the additional effect of causing anyone who comes into contact to become infatuated.
» Love Marionette A spell that allows Coma Berenices to control any individual who is infatuated with her like a puppet. This technique is weak and flimsy however, easily broken due to the method of control.
» Love Kiss ver. 2 A variation of Love Kiss 1, this technique is a French kiss that produces a similar effect to Love Kiss 1, but also puts the user in a state where they temporarily surrender their magic, allowing it to be used by Coma Berenices. Those who are immune to the basic infatuation part of this ability are not immune to the magic theft ability. Their magic returns after a half hour.
» Love Lick A healing spell used by Coma Berenices, she licks the location of wound and her saliva will heal it. It can remove poisons as well. Like other spells, it causes infatuation, though it lasts only a short time.

◎◎ [Magic: Lightning Magic] ◎◎
◎ Lightning Magic is a branch of Elemental Magic that utilizes electricity, more specifically, lightning, as a form of offense and defense. Mages who possess the ability to utilize such Magic are able to generate these elements from their bodies, and manipulate them, even shaping their attacks as they wish. Users of Lightning Magic are also capable of utilizing lightning from a distance, such as from the ground near them, or down from the sky. Lightning attacks work by electrocuting the opponents to various degrees, and there are spells that are said to be capable of completely paralyzing enemies, due to the extremely high voltage of the electricity employed in their use. Because of the high amounts of light produced with its use, Lightning Magic can also be utilized to blind opponents, albeit for a short amount of time.
» Lightning Body The user covers their body in lightning, greatly increasing their speed, and, effectively, turning them into an actual lightning bolt, thereby granting them great flexibility and maneuverability.
» Evil Spark The user puts their hands on the target's body and electrocutes them with a powerful surge of electricity.
» Lightning Flash A spell which employs the user's lightning in a peculiar way, revolving around the non-offensive properties of electricity: by pointing one of their hands towards the target with the thumb and index fingers partially bent in a claw-like manner and all the other fingers bent completely, the user can produce a large amount of intense light from their body, generating a "flashbang" out of lightning to momentarily blind opponents, granting them the time to leave undisturbed.
» Lightning Storm By placing their hands before him a few inches away one from the other, their palms open, the user can generate a sphere of electricity in the space between them, which rapidly grows larger in size. Such sphere is shown to send out lightning bolts of various size in an unpredictable pattern, making it hard to avoid them. The generated "storm" appears to remain active even after the user has released the initial sphere, striking their foes as they stand, without the need to move.
» Raging Bolt The user raises their clenched fist in the air and chants the incantation; a large bolt of lightning will then descend upon their target from the air, possibly completely vaporizing them with a strong blast of lightning
» Lightning Explosion The user gathers a large quantity of lightning in their fist and then punches the ground, engulfing the area in a torrent of lightning and destroying much of the surrounding ground in the process.
» Raikô: Red Lightning The user creates a special kind of dark-red lightning that they coat their fist with before executing an empowered punch. The lightning has been described as being "lightning that goes beyond lightning", and is noticeably more powerful and possesses unique properties, as it was able to kill Wall Eehto, a Machias who is extremely proud of his immunity to all forms of traditional lightning.
◆ Personality: Monoceros is actually a calm and pretty nice gal. When she tells jokes, she thinks they're pretty funny. But they're sometimes really bad. She can also be quite witty when he wants to, and reply to an insult in a heartbeat. It's pretty difficult to keep her angry, but if she does stay angry at you, then you did something pretty horrible to her. She does seem a bit strange, though, but this is due to all the different people she met when her Key was in their hands. Each person managed to rub off on her a bit, thus giving a strange mixture of different personalities. She does enjoy play fighting or practicing, but doesn't like getting serious with someone unless she really needs to.

◎◎ [Magic: Heavenly Divinity] ◎◎
◎ The Magic has no actual form, and instead seems to be a holy light, surrounded by a golden shine, making many confuse it for Spirit Slaying. The Magic, though set upon the soul, instead strikes at the opponent's "darkness". Meaning that the more horrible deeds they've done in the past, the stronger this Magic will be against them. Though this isn't to say it's completely useless against those with no darkness in their past. It can still harm them, just as any other Magic could. The user is able to shape this Magic into more... different forms, than most. Such as a holy sword which can send out waves of light, a beam that one shoots from their hands, or even pillars to protect them from outside forces.
» Divine Whirlwind The user summons two orbs in the palms of their hands. The user then throws these orbs out in front of them, causing the orbs to become larger than the user, and spin around in a cyclone formation, going forward about thirty feet.
» Melody of Trust The user sings a short hymn which, upon completion, summons divine barriers around them and their allies. The stronger the user, the tougher the barriers.
» Holy Winds The user is able to create a whirlwind of divine energy around themselves, slicing up anything that comes into contact with it. They're also able to move wile in this state, the whirlwind following them.
» Softly Shining The user causes what seems to be an alchemic circle to appear under their foe(s). Orbs of holy energy then shoot from the ground, causing damage upon whatever they hit.
» Phantasm Floor The user is able to create a unique space between the rift of Space-Time, and drag their enemies into it. In this space, their attacks are nearly tripled, but they cannot leave this space until the spell's effects wear off.
» Heavenly Whip The user is able to focus holy energy into the form of a large which, which is about fifteen feet in length. They can then swing this whip around, causing massive damage to anything or anyone hit by it.
» Celestial Armory The user is able to summon two magic circles, one above their enemies and one below, and send multitudes of weapons flying between them, attacking all enemies in the twenty-foot wide circles. Though these circles are stationary, and cannot be moved.
» Weapons of the Gods The user is able to summon multiple magic circles around their enemies, causing multiple phantasm weapon to fly out and strike their enemies. They can also summon one huge magic circle, and drop hundreds of swords from the skies onto their foes.
» Beginning of the End The user projects their divine energy into their hands, allowing them to summon God's weapon. Using this weapon, they are able to do a single sweep to do immense amounts of damage to any enemies within a sixty foot radius.
» Divine Emotion The user focuses divine energy above them, causing what looks like an alchemic circle around them. The orb then appears, being nearly three times the size of the user. The user then flies up beside the orb, and strikes it into the ground, vaporizing almost anything in its path.
◆ Personality: Scutum is very loyal to his Master. He also gives his Master advice when they are going to make a decision. He is very willing to protect his Master and his allies from danger by using his shield. He can be a braggart too, which is shown through his sometimes over-the-top way of speaking.

◎◎ [Magic: Reflector Magic] ◎◎
◎ Reflector is a form of Magic which enables its user to twist and distort almost anything. It can affect both material things, such as metal, and intangible entities, such as air and light. Such Magic possesses both great offensive and defensive capabilities: by refracting air, the user is capable of generating highly-destructive flying slashes of various sizes, which possess great cutting power. By twisting anything entering the immediate area surrounding them, the user becomes virtually immune to any attack, be it physical or magical in nature, with every incoming spell or melee assault having its trajectory moved in order to avoid striking the user, who can even reflect these attempts back at their originators. By refracting light, the user is even capable of generating illusions, going as far as to twist reality itself in the eyes of their opponents. Even objects and magics that negate magics fall victim to the Reflector.
» Invisible Scythe By manipulating air with his Reflector, Scutum can generate blades formed of air, which can be utilized as a ranged attack by sending them flying towards a target. The generated slicing waves can vary in size and numbers, ranging from ones a small as a few inches; to larger ones capable of leaving long slashes on massive opponents. By waving one of his hands diagonally before himself, Scutum can also generate a much larger slash, which is strong enough to easily slice through several stone buildings, cutting them to pieces.
» Invisibility By distorting the light around himself, Scutum is capable of hiding away his and other's bodies, effectively vanishing from sight in a blueish flash and then becoming invisible, something which allows them to move around unnoticed. While in such form, Scutum is also shown capable of levitating in the air, rapidly appearing and disappearing from sight as if he was teleporting. However, it should be noted that perceptive Eye Magic such as Heaven's Eye can still spot those hidden.
» Distort Shield Before an incoming attack can reach him, Scutum twists it, distorting its trajectory and sending it elsewhere, thus remaining unscathed. Scutum can perform this spell without so much as a single movement, and, by affecting the area around his person, can flawlessly shield himself from large barrages of fast-moving attacks, which can even be redirected to be sent back to the one who employed them. A master of this technique can even utilize it to reflexively distort incoming attacks while asleep. However, when Scutum is employing his refraction powers on the area surrounding him, he's incapable of using them elsewhere, and vice versa. Thus, when another area is being targeted, Scutum cannot properly shield himself.
◆ Personality: Ursa Major doesn't speak, in either form, and usually communicates through grunts and growls, that its Masters seems to be capable of understanding. As a bear he is fierce in battle, aiming to quickly overpower and defeat the opponents. When in his human form his fighting style is similar, though he shows more strategy and thought put into his fighting. He is loyal to his Master, as most Celestial Spirits are to their owners, and will violently attack anyone who threatens his Master in front of him.
◆ Mᴀɢɪᴄ Tʏᴘᴇ:
◎◎ [Magic: Earth Magic] ◎◎
◎ The caster makes use of the earth around them for combat, giving the user a great deal of flexibility when using their Magic. Skilled users can manipulate the physical properties of earth, such as making sand as hard as metal, creating iron-hard rock pillars from the ground, or even bending the ground at will and turning it into a liquid form. Earth Magic also enables the user to literally dive into the ground (be it rock, concrete, or metal), using their hands or feet, and tunnel through it. Like other elemental Magics, some users can also transform their bodies into earth and travel through solid obstacles and the ground itself.
» Iron Rock Spikes Ursa Major creates a number of earth spikes which erupt out of the ground and immobilize his opponent.
» Rumbling Mt. Fuji Ursa Major presses both hands together and summons an enormous amount of Magic Power that overwhelms the target in a beam that comes out of the ground and destroys the surrounding landscape.
» Rock Mountain Ursa Major claps his hands(paws?) together to manipulate the earth around him to create a rock mountain that can be used to block incoming attacks. This mountain is intricately designed, sculpted into what seems to be a giant warrior wearing an armor with spikes going upwards
» Alioth's Crushing Claw Ursa Major covers his arm in granite and other tough and strong rocks and slashes the opponent.
» Bear-Baiting Wall Ursa Major creates a round wall around the target, preventing them from going anywhere but back towards him.
» Transformation Ursa Major uses this magic to take on his human form, and he can partially change back into his bear form from his human appearance, leading some to think that Ursa Major's magic is actually Take Over.
◎ Requip: The Lost Armory is essentially as the name implies. It allows the user access to a plethora of different weapons that they come across in their travels. But it only allows access to any sort of weapon, not armor. Due to this it is much like Requip: The Knight, but it gives a much bigger expansion of weapons, since there is no armor to get in the way. Swords, axes, lances, pistols, revolvers, and many other sorts of weapons can be stored for later usage, too. Note that it only allows single-hand guns, or dual-wielding guns. No sniper rifles or anything of that sort.
◎ This weapon actually has eight different slots within its ammo chamber, each of which houses a different kind of bullet. Each of these bullets are magical in nature, and each one has its own varying technique. Due to Magic reasons, ten bullets can be shot from one insertion of this ammo, but it must be replaced after ten shots are used.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » First Bullet; Tremors of Earth By placing an earth infused bullet into one or both of the guns, Aethereus can cause the earth to grow small or large multitudes of spikes. Depending on how quickly Aethereus shoots, the spikes can appear either in a single spot at a time, or quickly near each other in a split second, making this a very dangerous attack.
» Second Bullet; Decomposing Rot By placing a rot infused bullet into one or both guns, Aethereus can cause his opponent's skin to start decomposing in a small area, or cause fungus and the like to start growing over their body. If their skin starts decomposing, the process can be stopped by cutting off the area that has been infected, or even cutting off a whole limb. It takes three posts for symptoms to occur, and ten posts before their body starts falling apart.
» Third Bullet; Waves of Time By placing a rare, time infused bullet into one or both guns, Aethereus can cause a ripple in time, causing everything to speed up to the speed of lightning, confusing everyone. Or slowing them down to the speed of a turtle, making it easier to defeat them. Though due to the bullets being rare, and the bad effects it can cause, he rarely ever uses this attack.
» Fourth Bullet; Hell's Flames By placing a fire infused bullet into one or both guns, Aethereus can cause burning damage to his enemies, lightning them on fire. He can also, if using both guns, cause mini volcanoes to appear on the ground, and shoot up lava, before disappearing.
» Fifth Bullet; Locust Swarm By placing an insect infused bullet into one or both guns, Aethereius can cause a swarm of insects to be shot from his guns, causing a sort of barrier to prevent anyone from being able to see, or attack him, acting as a rather thick shield. The insects are otherwise pretty harmless.
» Sixth Bullet; Murky Water By placing a water infused bullet into one or both guns, Aethereus can either essentially make both guns literal water guns, or cause them to be shot much quicker, able to pierce much easier. If used as a literal water gun though, it causes murky water to pour forth, quickly filling the area if it's enclosed. The water is murky, making it difficult to see, unless the water is drained somehow. Otherwise, the opponent will most likely drown.
» Seventh Bullet; Spirit's Wailing When placing a rare, spirit infused bullet into one or both guns, Aethereus can causes a sound barrier piercing wail to emit from his guns. Though this wail will only happen if the bullets make contact with a living person, since the scream would come from their own mouth. This scream can cause one's eyes and ears to bleed if they hear it, which is why Aethereus uses it so rarely.
» Eighth Bullet; Heavenly Desire When placing a light infused bullet into one or both guns, Aethereus can cause a blinding light to cover the battlefield, making it difficult for anyone to see. The power of this light is also powerful enough to obliterate any Basic or Advanced Darkness/Shadow Magic currently in effect.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Apocalyptic Sforzando, Elemental Unity [Ultimate] Aethereus floats in the air, holding his gains straight out as a circle appears, the eight elements appearing within the circle (clockwise starting above Aethereus is Earth, Rot, Time, Fire, Insect, Water, Spirit, then Light). He then points both guns at his enemy and starts shooting, but he does so one gun at a time. First he shoots Heaven (left), a jagged spike of earth coming out of the elemental circle for Earth before revolving to place Rot above Aethereus. He then shoots Hell (right), sending a wave of what looks like vomited human flesh at his opponent, the circle revolving once more. He then shoots Heaven again, sending a wave of time at his enemy, blasting them back and aging the area around them. He shoots Hell again, a fireball of blue flames being shot at his opponent, before shooting Heaven and sending a swarm of hornets at his enemy. He shoots Hell again, shooting a high pressured jet of water at them, shooting Heaven again and sending an ear-piercing wail at them. Finally he shoots Hell for the last time, causing a blinding (and possibly burning) flash of light, causing the circle to disappear, along with any of the leftover elements.
◎ Kusanagi has the ability to burst into brilliant white flames, which are much stronger than the average flame. These flames can be used in the multiple attacks, or even just to swing regularly. Or even, should it come to it, feed flames to a Fire Slayer.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Purgatory Blade It's not some kind of exorcism attack. Instead, Aethereus causes his sword to burst into white flames, giving it the element of fire. Like this, the sword can cause burn damage, but nothing too severe. It also seems to act like a glowstick of in the dark. Meaning that it shines pretty brightly when it's dark.
» Hellish Will Using the sword's power, Aethereus has the ability to surround his sword with his blue flames, making it seem larger than it really is. The maximum length he can make it is five feet, and the width being two and a half feet. The fire has a strong burning effect than Purgatory Blade, causing near intense burns before the blade is able to hit the target. Though this attack takes a lot of concentration, and even the smallest slip-up can cause it to disappear.
» Corrupted Waves This attack serves much like the Purgatory Blade, in which Aethereus surrounds his blade with white flames, giving it a sort of "fire" element. Though unlike the Purgatory Blade, he doesn't just keep it infused with light and attack. Instead, he swings his sword in arcs, and sends out waves of sorts. These can travel about ten feet. Depending on how widely the blade is swung, their length ranges anywhere from around an inch to two feet.
» Satanic Pillars Aethereus summons pillars of white flames around himself, either for protection or to attack nearby enemies, by stabbing Kusanagi into the ground. The pillars total anywhere from four to ten, so no one ever knows how many he'll summon. These pillars give off a very intense heat, which can burn those that stay close too long or get caught within them. The only way to approach the one who summoned them is to either douse the pillars, or be a Fire Slayer yourself. He also has the ability to send these pillars away from himself, and towards anyone that might be in their path.
» Hell Cannon No, Aethereus doesn't summon a cannon or the gate of Hell to use this attack. Instead, he sends brilliant blue flames from sword, creating a large "beam" directed at his target. This "beam" is about ten feet in width, but makes a kind of cone shape, since it starts small at his sword and gradually grows larger. It sometimes sends balls of fire towards the target, which act like homing missiles in a way.
» Scorching Breath Aethereus can release a stream of breath, which is composed of blue flames, from his mouth (or to be exact, he lights his sword up and can bow on it to give this effect). Though this breath isn't just for show, and can be very lethal. Being caught in this stream has the potential to completely disintegrate a person or object. It also has the potential to horribly burn his victims, causing serious injury upon them.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Heavenly Crusader, Rain of White Flames [Ultimate] Aethereus holds Kusanagi in front ofhim, still sheathed, the blade facing his body. As he slowly draws it, the white flames ignite to life, surrounding Aethereus in all their brilliance. As he fully draws it, he pointa the blade to the sky, a pillar of fire rising from the sword towards the sky, causing a dark swirl of clouds to form. Fire the rains down from the sky in the form of white pillars, striking the battleground and horrendously burning all that come in contact with the flames.
◎ This sword has the strange and innate ability to suck up and devour anything except humans and any other actual races. It's not known how it does this, but whatever is sucked up usually never comes back out. It also seems to have the unusual ability to speak.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Vacuum Blade Using this attack, Aethereus causes the mouth of the middle head on Muramasa's hilt to become a vacuum, able to suck in objects (except living things) into it, devouring them into... well, who knows. Reaching your hand into the mouth after this attack will allow only the last item suck in to be retrieved.
» Jaws of the Devourer This attack allows Aethereus to make sharp, jagged teeth grow all along Muramasa's blade. Contact with these teeth allow it to suck the blood from whoever it touches, acting as a Vampire. But it doesn't suck all the blood from a victim, unless they keep prolonged contact with the blade. It stops draining them when they're not touching the teeth.
» Spitup This attack allows Aethereus to use the sword's middle head once more, but instead of vacuuming objects up, allows him to shoot them all out as great speeds. This can be incredibly dangerous, since no one knows what has all been sucked up within that time. It also seems to randomly spit objects up in no given order.
» Suck n' Heal A very... strange attack, which allows Aethereus to be able to suck foreign objects from his victim's body. By having them place their mouth on the middle head, the sword can suck up any metals, gases, or other dangerous substances from the victim's body, to keep them from dying.
» Toothy Projectile Another dangerous attack, though this one allows Aethereus to shoot teeth from the blade of Muramasa, digging into the enemy and causing them to bleed profusely. The reason it's dangerous is because it cannot tell friend from foe, and will attack anyone and everyone.
» Jaws of the Bloodgiver A variation of the "Jaws of the Devourer", this attack, instead of sucking blood, instead gives it, if one touches the teeth. Though this seems nice and safe, it is far from that, for the blood can be filled with poisons or gases, if Aethereus so wants it. Otherwise, it can be used to help an ally dying from blood loss to recover.
» Pillars of Teeth By stabbing Muramasa into the ground, Aethereus can cause it to grow pillars of teeth around him, making it difficult to reach him. These pillars are also pointed, so they're able to stab anyone or anything that was above them when the sprouted. He can also make them grow under his enemy.
» Blood Vomiting By pointing the tip of the sword at his opponent, Aethereus can cause the sword to open into four parts, revealing a mouth which vomits blood onto the opponent. Though this is no regular blood, as it seems to act as acid. Melting anyone and anything it comes into contact with. The blood can be sucked back up, and used again, too.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Jaws of Hell, The Bloody Feast [Ultimate] Aethereus pulls Muramasa off his back, the sword seeming to come alive as both sides of the blade turn into demonic mouths with jagged, sharp teeth. He takes a step back and holds his sword above his right shoulder with both hands, poised to strike. He then dashes forward quickly, nearly in the blink of an eye, impaling his foe. The mouths then feast on the enemy's insides before being blasted back by a vortex of blood.
◎ This weapon has the powerful yet dangerous ability to control and distort time. Though using it can cause the space-time continuum to slowly crumble, not using it lets it heal over time. So prolonged usage is not recommended.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Temporal Rip Aethereus is able to cause a small rip in the fabric of time, through which objects (non-living) can be sucked, and thrown into any point in time. Meaning while fighting and using this while sucking up a rock, he could cause the rock to be spit out ten seconds in the future, striking his enemy from out of nowhere.
» Chrono Beam Aethereus can shoot a "time beam" from the top tip of the spear which, when coming in contact with an object (non-Human/Demon), can cause it to age quickly and either die or turn to dust. Takes longer the bigger the object.
» Turn Back the Clock By spinning the spear directly in front of him, Aethereus is able to travel back a short distance in time (up to a minute) to either save himself or others from a horrible fate. Though doing so actually causes him great discomfort, so he rarely uses this ability unless absolutely needed.
» The Hands of Time By holding the spear out to his side, Aethereus can summon "phantom" versions of the spear, which are shaped like clock hands (the arrows). He can grab these and throw them at his opponent for piercing damage, though it does nothing else.
» Scattered History Aethereus can throw Lance of Longinus into the air, causing it to split and break apart into multiple arrows of light (time). These arrows, if striking something non-human, cause the object to age rapidly and detiorate. Otherwise they just pierce the body and do some pretty bad damage before reforming in Aethereus's hand.
» Forwards and Backwards By holding the spear out in front of him and holding it straight up, Aethereus can speed up time for short amount of.... his time (fifteen seconds at most). By turning the spear upside down, he can slow down time for a limited amount of his time (fifteen seconds at most).
» Stop 'em in Their Tracks A more advanced and dangerous ability that the spear possesses. By throwing it up in the air and spinning it, Aethereus can freeze time for as long as the spear is in the air. Though it doesn't matter if he's there to catch it as it falls or not.
» Form Destroyer Upon initiation, six spears of light/time appear behind Aethereus, who stands across from his enemy. Aethereus fires all of the projectiles at his enemy, one at a time. Afterward, he hurls his spear at his opponent, lunges toward them, catches the spear, and runs his enemy through. Aethereus then delivers the final blow by lunging forward and piercing his opponent with his spear.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Eternal Waltz, Final Dance [Ultimate] Aethereus summons six spears of Light/Time, which he throws at his opponent, before summoning a seventh and charging them, stabbing the spear into them and pushing them back before jumping/flying back and making the spear explode. He then summons twelve spears of light/time and throwing them at his opponent, before summoning a thirteenth and grabbing it, slicing and dicing his enemy up before stabbing them once more as the spear explodes. This attack gets its name from the fact that it almost looks like he's dancing as he attacks.
◎ These gauntlets emit flames which are close to equal to a Fire Slayer's in power. They seem to be the flames of Hell itself, and can cause massive damage to those it comes into contact with.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Fists of the Hearth Aethereus covers both of his fists in white hot flames, and can use them to slam, punch, or crush his targets. The flames though, being hot as they are, can possibly cause some very bad burn damage. And followed up by the brute force of his punch, it's a force to be reckoned with.
» Claws of Flame Aethereus can light his gauntlets on fire, and slash at his target(s) with them. Due to being fire and heated metal, they can slice clean through many things with no problem. It can also be used to cauterize any of his wounds, to stop them from bleeding. Though due to this, it can also be used as a type of torture technique. Reason being that he can slice someone and damage them, but cauterize the wound at the same time, keeping them from bleeding out.
» Blazing Discs Aethereus can form two disc-like shapes in his hand, much like frisbee, except totally flat. He can then throw one or both of these discs at a time and generate more to throw. Depending on their color, they can either barely burn or even manage to melt skin off.
» Incinerating Razor Strike Flames cover both of Aethereus's arms, and he can swing them at either a person or object. The flames then fly at the target in a vertical line. He hand also send them horizontally if he swings his arm up or down, and even in a "X" shape if he crosses his arms and swings.
» Fireball Pretty much self-explanatory. Aethereus can charge a fireball in his hand, which he can throw at his opponent. Though the bigger he makes it, the larger the area of destruction. And the more powerful it is.
» Firebolt Aethereus shoots "bolts" of fire out of his hand. "Bolts" meaning rapid shots of fire, much like bullets, except longer in length. It makes them easier to see, but they're still pretty quick.
» Combustion Bomb Aethereus is able to create a large ball of fire, which he can set on almost any surface. Once he does, he usually gets away from it, and then snaps his fingers, causing it to explode and send mini fireballs out in every direction. The explosion itself is about a twenty foot radius, and the fireballs that are thrown out are about two feet in total diameter. Though their explosion is about five feet in radius.
» Flame Breath By putting his hands to his mouth and cupping them, Aethereus can blow through a hole he makes in his hands, thus making it seem like he's breathing fire. This fire can be either a steady stream or a raging inferno depending on how hard he blows.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Wrath of the Heavens, Judgement of Hell [Ultimate] Aethereus strikes his enemy into the air, swiftly and quickly attacking them with a flurry of kicks and punches. As he does this, his movement is quick enough that it somehow causes a tornado to form. Once he gets his enemy high enough in the air, he appears above them, bringing a single, full-powered kick onto their head with so much force that the tornado dissipates, and the force of his enemy hitting the ground causes a deep crater.
◎ Flamberge is one of The Four Armatus Elemental Weapons, four weapons which, upon being used, causes Aethereus to undergo a slight transformation. His attire changes, his eyes become the same color as their weapon, and the white of his hair turns platinum blonde, the black patch becoming a dark golden. Flamberge is the Armatus of Fire, taking the form of a large longsword, giving Aethereus control over purifying flames, which battle again darkness and corruption with ease. And even though the flames emitted from this weapon are usually used to purify, it can still pack a very painful punch.
Flamberge has the ability to change its user's clothing and appearance. It also has purifying flames, which can turn dark and corrupted creatures back to normal. Doesn't work that well on Demons/Devils or corrupt Gods, though.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Burning Echo Fire bursts forth from Aethereus in two waves, the second being much more powerful than the first. These flames cause great burning damage against the opponent.
» Crown Fire Aethereus swings Flamberge and at first, a few wisps of wind circle around the enemy, then suddenly burst with fire, damaging enemies in a medium area while launching smaller targets into the air.
» Calamity Fire Aethereus conjures a wide wall of fire, which then rushes through the battlefield, pushing enemies back and dealing continuous damage.
» Ancient Nova Upon activation, the atmosphere turns red as heat energy builds in the sky. A massive bullet of flame then descends from the sky, striking the earth and rupturing a large area. Finally, a quick flash of hellfire consumes the battlefield around the point of impact before dissipating.
» Vermillion Crescent Aethereus swings Flamberge in an crescent arc, a wave of fire trailing after the swing soon after. This causes both damage from the sword, and damage from the fire.
» Rain of Fire Aethereus swings Flamberge downwards, not aiming to strike the enemy. Afterwards, fire begins raining down from the sky, covering about ten feet.
» Scorched Valley Aethereus swings Flamberge twice, on each side of his enemy. Upon doing so, two waves of fire appear on each side of the enemy, closing in on them.
» Crimson Cross Aetherues swings Flamberge in a cross formation, with fire trailing the strikes and causing great burn damage to any hit by it.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Flamberge, The Ultimate Purification Aethereus holds Flamberge out to his side, the sword coming alight with the flames of purification. He then lowers to the sword down to the ground, the tip touching it. Once he does this, he spins in a circle twice, tracing the sword along the ground and causing a scorching circle to appear. Lastly, he slashes upwards in a diagonal cut, causing fire to burst forth, and allowing him to be surrounded by a pillar of flame. This attacks causes great fire damage to any standing nearby, and the attack is meant to be used at close range.
◎ Aqua Limit is one of The Four Armatus Elemental Weapons, four weapons which, upon being used, causes Aethereus to undergo a slight transformation. His attire changes, his eyes become the same color as their weapon, and the white of his hair turns platinum blonde, the black patch becoming a dark golden. Aqua Limit is the Armatus of Water, taking the form of a large bow and arrow, and giving Aethereus control over the torrential seas. The water used in attacks from this weapon seems to have purifying abilities, though not as strong as Flamberge's. It's still pretty powerful in its own right, though.
Aqua Limit has the ability to change its user's clothing and appearance. Its waters also seem to have slight purification abilities, and healing properties on those the user considers an ally.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Bubble Arrow Aethereus shoots four large bubbles of water floating in the air. These bubbles explode and deal damage upon contact, otherwise they just explode themselves, dealing no damage.
» Arrow Squall Aethereus shoots arrows into sky that then rain down onto his enemies. These arrows fall in an area of about fifteen feet, and continue falling until the enemy escapes, or after about fifteen seconds (essentially, one post).
» Trinity Arrow Aethereus first shoots two, water-infused arrows at the enemy, then follows with a large, water-infused arrow powered by a great blue emblem conjured around the arrowhead.
» Maelstrom When the attack is used, a whirlpool appears over a large area of the battlefield, lifting all enemies within range into the air while dealing damage.
» Elixir Vitae Three white circles at slightly varying angles appear around the target, white wisps surrounding them and mildly bursting. This spell heals a large amount of health and cures all physical and magical status ailments from Aethereus's allies.
» Azure Assault Aethereus aims his bow horizontally at his enemy, a large, ornamental, and blue glyph around the arrowhead, then releases twelve spiraling water arrows at the enemy.
» Saint's Arrow Aethereus knocks an arrow and points it at his target. He then charges the power of it for about ten seconds, before it shines a bright white and he releases it. Upon impact, it explodes in a flurry of torrential water and purification, causing large damage.
» Six Falling Stars Aethereus points Aqua Limit at his enemy, an arrow appearing in it. He then pulls the arrow back and releases it, the arrow splitting into six and flying towards the enemy in an expanding twister fashion. They then fly towards the enemy, piercing straight through them. Even though this causes no visible wounds, it still causes a lot of pain.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Aqua Limit, Deluge of the Torrential Seas Aethereus holds Aqua Limit up, pointing the arrowless bow at his opponent. A magic arrow with an enlarged, cone-like tip then appears in it. Aethereus then pulls this arrow back and releases it, causing more to appear in its place. Aethereus releases this barrage of arrows on his opponent, one after the other. While his opponent is blinded by all the water from the arrows, Aqua Limit shifts to become a blade on Aethereus's arm, which he uses to pierce through his target in an torrential explosion of water.
◎ Sylphystia is one of The Four Armatus Elemental Weapons, four weapons which, upon being used, causes Aethereus to undergo a slight transformation. His attire changes, his eyes become the same color as their weapon, and the white of his hair turns platinum blonde, the black patch becoming a dark golden. Sylphystia is the Armatus of Wind, and takes the form of fourteen green and golden blades of two varying sizes, which float against Aethereus's back and act much like wings. Sylphystia does not have purification abilities like Flamberge and Aqua Limit, but the blades seem to have invisible winds which surround each individual blade, ripping to shreds anything that would touch them.
Sylphystia has the ability to change its user's clothing and appearance. Each individual blade has a "coat" of invisible, razor sharp winds, which tears to shreds anything which comes in contact with them.
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Gale Phantom Aethereus spins, striking his enemy and finishing the attack with a wind-infused blow. Aethereus also switches places with the target.
» Stratashield Aethereus slightly leaps into the air with a spin, producing a wind blast around himself. This blast protects them from any incoming (non-Ultimate) attacks, and can spread to up to five allies.
» Deep Squall Aethereus conjures two circling blasts of wind around them. The user will then periodically emit those same blasts another three times.
» Cloudburst Aethereus leaps into the air and ejects six green blades that then fire green lasers in a straight line, with each blade firing at a different angle.
» Wind Blade Aethereus performs a front-flip while striking the target with his sword/blade wings. The wind "coat" along the blades is also active, dealing more damage than the attack normally would.
» Whirlwind Slash Aethereus performs a series of counterclockwise rising spins that conjure a green whirlwind around him.
» Virulent Shards Aethereus leaps into the air, conjuring multiple magic blades pointing at the field in the target's close proximity, that he then rains upon the enemy in rapid succession, each blade conjuring a green wind blast upon contact with the ground.
» Razor Vortex While in the air, two green circles burst from Aethereus, and then another series of green circles do the same, accompanied by several pillars of green winds.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Sylphystia, Whirlwind of Blades Aethereus flies into the sky, thanks to the usage of the wind element. He then summons multiple green blades behind him, much like the ones on his back. Aethereus then causes these blades to rain down upon the enemy and around them, causing a triangular crest to form on the ground. All of the blades then explode into a burst of wind sporadically, the crest forming as green energy, and releasing one final, powerful burst of razor-like winds.
◎ Earth Revolution is one of The Four Armatus Elemental Weapons, four weapons which, upon being used, causes Aethereus to undergo a slight transformation. His attire changes, his eyes become the same color as his weapon, and the white of his hair turns platinum blonde, the black patch becoming a dark golden. Earth Revolution is the Armatus of Earth, and takes the form of two gauntlets on Aethereus's hands, which control two, much larger disembodied fists, which float alongside him. Earth Revolution has no purification abilities at all, and is more focused on healing and incredible offensive abilities. The large, floating gauntlets seem to have supernatural, superhuman strength, capable of pulling and controlling the earth to Aethereus's will, making it incredibly dangerous in the wrong hands. Even punching the earth with one of these hands can cause an earthquake.
Earth Revolution has the ability to change Aethereus's clothing and appearance. The giant, disembodied hands alongside Aethereus can be controlled by the gauntlets on his hands, and they have supernatural/superhuman strength, allowing him to lift even the largest of boulders
BASIC ATTACKS » N/A N/A
ADVANCED ATTACKS » Rock Sattelite Aethereus conjures three large rocks circling around him. These rocks explode upon contact with the enemy, causing rock shards to go flying in all directions (except towards Aethereus). Otherwise, they can stop any solid attacks in their tracks (except Ultimates).
» Crystal Tower Aethereus conjures tall crystals on up to three targets, which erupt from beneath them. These crystals dissolve back into the earth after the attack, though can still be eaten by Crystal Slayers if they're quick enough.
» Earth Shaker Aethereus slams his fist into the ground, creating a large impact zone around him. This impact zone is an earthquake, causing loss of balance, followed by large stalagmites to shoot from the cracks in the ground. It should be noted this attack does permanently change the terrain where it was used, unless repaired by magic.
» Gigaton Smash Aethereus first attempts to grab his target with the right fist. If he succeeds, he will rise into the air and throw his target into the ground, following with a smash. This can cause the ground around his opponent to crack, and possibly cause shards of earth to be embedded into their skin.
» Fairy Circle Once the glyph has formed, spheres of light rise up, purifying all party members excluding those that are knocked out by completely restoring their health and curing them of any status ailments before finally granting them a boost in Attack, Defense, and Magic. While party members are being cured and boosted, the circle also flashes with powerful energy of the element of Earth, damaging every single enemy nearby with earthquake-like shockwaves.
» Monolithic Current Aethereus digs one of the large hands into the ground beneath his enemy. He then pulls up, causing multiple, sharp, large rocks to come forth from the ground, pushing his enemies back and possibly piercing them.
» Scrap Toss Aethereus digs both hands into the ground and pulls out either a large chunk of metal, a boulder, or a mix of the two. He then throws this large object at his opponent, aiming to crush them.
» Iron Curtain Aethereus digs both hands underground, pulling up a wall of either earth or iron to shield himself with. It can protect up to six allies, if they're close to Aethereus. Can deflect all but Ultimate attacks.
ULTIMATE ATTACK » Earth Revolution, Shooting Stars Aethereus jumps onto one of the large gauntlets, charging it with earth energy as he seems to surf on it. He then makes a ninety-degree angle, uppercutting his target and sending them flying into the air, along with any rocks he caused to fly up from "surfing" along the ground. He then proceeds to fly back down towards his enemy much like a meteor, the rocks following after him and pelting any other enemies that may be nearby. Whether the attack connects with the enemy or not, it creates a crater in the earth, and causes an earthquake.

◎◎ Sub Magic: Abyssal Chaos [7] ◎◎
◎ This Magic seems to have no true given form, and seems to look like nothing more than some strange, purple aura surrounded by shadows. The Magic is a void that devours and crushes everything. Due to this, the user can absorb physical matter and attacks of any type by sucking it into the void. Similar to a black hole, the user can absorb things inside a vortex. It seems that it does not completely compress and annihilate that which is sucked in as an actual black hole would do, but rather creates some form of space where things are stored. Due to it being nothing but shadows, the user is capable of morphing it into different shapes, such as a weapon, the head of a beast, or even huge claws. It all seems to depend upon the user's own imagination. Aethereus was actually "given" this Magic by a man he once met, who had hair as white as his but with a tuft of blue in it. It seemed to be his final wish to pass it on, before he faded away.
BASIC SPELLS » Seed of Tartarus This is a pretty basic and easy to use spell. It involves Aethereus holding out his hand, and gathering his Magic in it. In Abyssal Chaos's case, it appears as a purple, pulsating orb, surrounded by darkness and shadows. Aethereus can throw this orb, or place it behind his opponent, though it can't stick to anything. Upon detonation, it releases multiple waves of the Magic in every direction. Anything that is hit by it will be sucked into the abyss about halfway, before being spit out, causing minor damage.
» Fangs of Hell Aethereus holds out both arms and turns his hands, so that their palms are facing each other. He then curves his fingers, to make it look like he's making a jaw of some sort. Then, upon raising his arms, gathers his Magic in front of him, to create giant, shadowy looking jaws, dripping with the strange, purple aura. He then slams his hands down, clasping them together. The disembodied jaw then chomps down on his opponent, devouring them into the abyss if they got hit. It has the potential to kill, but only if you get caught in the teeth.
» Gauntlet of Hades Aethereus envelops his hand in the Magic causing it to appear much like a gauntlet. True to the Magic's appearance, on the top of the gauntlet is the pulsating, purple orb, covered by shade and darkness. With this spell, Aethereus is able to enhance his punch with Abyssal Chaos's abyssal force, and adding a bit of extra damage behind the punch, to inflict more damage upon the enemy.
» Claws of the Abyss Much like Gauntlet of Hades, but instead causes Aethereuss hand(s) to appear much like large, black hands, with dripping, purple claws. These claws appear to be larger than Aethereus's own body, but are able to be moved around effortlessly, due to being nothing more than darkness. But that doesn't stop it from inflicting grievous damage upon the enemy. These can be used to slash one's enemy, dig into the ground or possibly through walls, or crush someone or something.
ADVANCED SPELLS » Infernal's Descent Aethereus jumps into the air, cloaking his body in the darkness of the Magic. He then descends downwards in a spinning motion, seeming to form into a sort of terrifying drill. Even if this attack misses the intended target, it causes Aethereus to burrow underground, and release spikes from below the ground, impaling anything that they may come into contact with
» Pillars of Hell Aethereus places his hands together, as if praying, before pulling them apart, two small orbs within his hands. He then slams his hands into the ground, facing his opponent. As he does this, the ground below begins to rumble and crack, signaling something coming. Pillars of darkness, with a strange purple core within them rise from the ground, headed towards the opponent in a triangle formation (imagine the top tip of a triangle facing Aethereus and spreading out as it heads towards the target).
» Roar of the Abyss Aethereus throws back his head, and lets out a loud, deep roar. After this, his mouth leaks with his Curse, causing it to fall onto the ground, sinking into it. After enough leaks, a large, beastly head, remnant of a dragon's, with glowing, purple eyes, a strange purple aura, and the rest being darkness. This head dashes towards Aethereus's opponent, letting out a deafening roar as it approaches, aiming to "devour" them. If it manages to devour someone, it swallows them wholly into the abyss, spitting them out moments later, with heavy damage.
◆ Aethereus is able to control, create, and even transform into a holy light. As such, Aethereus is able to utilize light-based attacks. Such attacks include shooting laser beams from his hands, fingers, or feet (which are capable of causing massive explosions) to partial transformations that enable physical attacks that connect at light-speed, which can cause devastating damage. Aethereus's reflexes are so quick that he can transform into light to completely bypass almost any attack, even a gunshot from meters away. He is able to avoid normal attacks by transforming into light, causing the attack to bypass straight through his body. Aethereus is also able to travel at the speed of light and is able to reflect himself to any desired location. Due to this Blessing's power, Aethereus is possibly the fastest man in the world as nothing is faster than the speed of light, which is 299,792,458 meters per second. This blessing, if used on the target enough, eventually causes them to become enveloped in light, shattering their body and sending them to banishment in eternal light. Though it is possible to pull them back from this realm, if the right Magic is used.
BASIC SPELLS » Purgatory Blade It's not some kind of exorcism attack. Instead, Aethereus summons a sword with his power, making a sword created of the light element. The sword can possibly cause burn damage, but nothing too severe. It also seems to act like a glowstick of in the dark. Meaning that it shines pretty brightly when it's dark.
» Heavenly Will Aethereus can use his divine power, making a sword created of the light element, making it much larger than it really is. The maximum length he can make it is five feet, and the width being two and a half feet. The light has a strong burning effect than Purgatory Blade, causing near intense burns before the blade is able to hit the target. Though this attack takes a lot of concentration, and even the smallest slip-up can cause it to disappear.
» Cleansing Waves This attack serves much like the Purgatory Blade, in which Aethereus summons a blade with his power, giving it a sort of "light" element. Though unlike the Purgatory Blade, he doesn't just attack with it. Instead, he swings his sword in arcs, and sends out waves of sorts. These can travel about ten feet if it's used in the light, but only between three to five feet in the dark. Depending on how widely the blade is swung, their length ranges anywhere from around an inch to two feet.
» Celestial Light Aethereus summons orbs of light from his hands, which he can send flying at his enemies. The name comes from the fact that they shine like stars (though they won't blind you), and if they make contact, they seem to be scalding to the touch, causing horrible burn marks. Though it is also possible to be blinded from these, if they hit you directly in the face. The orbs are able to maneuver on their own, but he's still able to control them.
» Pillars of Light Aethereus summons pillars of light around himself, either for protection or to attack nearby enemies. The pillars total anywhere from four to ten, so no one ever knows how many he'll summon. These pillars give off a very bright light, which can either blind those that look too long or get caught within them, or burn them badly. The only way to approach the one who summoned them is to either dim the pillars, or be a user of a Blessing yourself. He also has the ability to send these pillars away from himself, and towards anyone that might be in their path.
ADVANCED SPELLS » Luminous Cannon Sadly Aethereus doesn't summon a cannon to use this attack. Instead, he sends brilliant light from both of his hands, creating a large "beam" at his target. This "beam" is about ten feet in width, but makes a kind of cone shape, since it starts small at his hands and gradually grows larger. It sometimes sends balls of light towards the target, which act like homing missiles in a way.
» Radiant Bomb Aethereus is able to create a large ball of light, which he can set on almost any surface. Once he does, he usually gets away from it, and then snaps his fingers, causing it to explode and send mini balls of light out in every direction. The explosion itself is about a twenty foot radius, and the fireballs that are thrown out are about two feet in total diameter. Though their explosion is about five feet in radius. When these explode, they can cause either temporary blindness, or burn the victim.
» Luminous Vortex Aethereus has the ability to summon up to three different vortexes, each one made of the light element. Due to this, being stuck inside one can cause one to go temporarily blind. And it can also possibly burn the one trapped inside slowly. The vortexes seem to have minds of their own, going off in their own directions after being summoned.
» Fists of Radiance Aethereus covers both of his fists with radiant light, empowering them with the element. He can then use his fists to punch, slam, grab, or crush his targets. And given the fact that his fists are covered with his element, he can deal extra damage. So it's basically the element of Light plus brute strength.
» Yata no Kagami Aethereus forms light between his hands, and reflects it off any surface he wishes. He then transforms into the light in order to get to his desired location. This technique is especially useful for creating light out of nowhere, allowing Aethereus to travel or attack even in the darkest places.
» Amaterasu Aethereus points his index and middle finger into the air or at his enemies (in the form of a peace sign), and emits a powerful flash of light, blinding his opponent, or any enemies in the vicinity.
» Yasakani no Magatama Aethereus crosses his arms in front of him and uses both hands to fire a torrent of deadly light particles, causing extreme damage to whatever they hit. Aethereus can control the spread of the attack, limiting it to a single person or covering an extremely wide area. It also has great piercing properties, penetrating a thick layer of ice and then piercing deep into the water with ease.
◎◎ Ultimate Magic Attacks [20] ◎◎
◆Dragon Force: When a Dragon Slayer enters Dragon Force, they effectively turn into a humanoid Dragon, gaining reptilian scales and traits, such as further elongated, and sharper, canines and scale-like patterns on their skin. Dragon Force is the final, most powerful state a Dragon Slayer can attain; granting them power comparable to that which a real Dragon possesses: the power to utterly destroy everything. When Aethereus goes into this state, he gains the above, and his whole body is surrounded by incredible amounts of celestial energy. At times, a wave of stardust will burst from his body, buffeting anyone within ten feet of him.
◆Celestial Dragon Drive: The Drive spell is exclusive to 3rd, 6th, and 7thh Generation Dragon Slayers; and as the name indicates, it is activated via some kind of mechanism; in this case, Drive is initiated by harnessing the power of the Dragon Slayer Lacrima which is embedded within the user's body. Upon command, the Lacrima begins to distribute the Dragon Slayer Magic Particles stored within the crystalline orb at a swifter pace, accelerating the output and flow of magic from the Lacrima to the user's body in order to enhance all of their fortes, increasing the strength, speed, and potential that the user possesses tenfold, allowing them to take on even foes much more powerful than themselves; entering a state of enhanced awareness and peak physical ability as their element cloaks around them. While in this state, the user demonstrates heightened reflexes and extremely quick information processing, and it amplifies the powers of their Dragon Slayer Magic without exhausting themselves. This state grants the user the ability to perform new spells; as well as making their pre-existing spells far more powerful, with various users only employing several skills only while in Drive.
Celestial Dragon Drive is the exclusive Drive of a Celestial Dragon Slayer. This brings out the true capabilities of a Dragon Slayer. It's pretty much an enhanced version of Dragon Force, meaning that along with Dragon Force, there is this. This enhances Aethereus's physical prowess, along with his speed, making him almost three times better. When this ability is used, Aethereus will be surrounded by an celestial energy, making it seem as if he is possessed by a phantom of celestial energy. This "shield", or aura, emulates very powerful surges of celestial energy, causing anyone too close to the user to be buffeted by cosmic energy and miniature stars. This makes it much like a defensive form, than an offensive form. Aethereus receives peak physical ability, and enters an enhanced state of speed and awareness. This form is said to be the true "power that kills Dragons". It's possible to perform completely new spells, along with greatly enhanced versions of them, while in this form.
◆Celestial Dragon King Mode: Celestial Dragon King Mode is a unique ability granted unto a Celestial Dragon Slayer by Celestia, the Celestial Dragon King. Utilizing the residual, inert Magic Power of the dragon soul that resides within him, a draconian tattoo appears on Aethereus's arm that serves as the physical manifestation of the aforementioned Magic Power; this power took Aethereus a year of dedicated training to master. As a result of the sheer volume of the Magic Power itself, before even properly utilizing the power to its fullest, he radiates incredible volumes of celestial energy, and his speed and power drastically increase to levels that allow him to fight toe-to-toe with beings as incredulously powerful as Zeref, and even completely destroy and nullify forbidden, powerful Magic such as Ankhseram Black Magic. When the Magic Power is exerted to its maximum, in a radius expanding meters, the sky turns into the night sky, the constellations howing in the sky as rather large meteorites rain down upon the field, and Aethereus becomes cloaked in celestial energy that roughly resembles a silhouette of Celestia. The mode is said to be the manifestation of Celestia's undying will. However, the Magic Power bestowed is extremely finite, and once it runs out, the user must draw power from another Dragon Soul to use it again.
Aethereus's own physical changes make him seem much like a human version of Celestia herself. The edges of his face are covered in light blue scales, stopping at the tip of his chin and jawbone. His teeth become sharper, and much more canine. His eyes become different colors, with his left eye being a celestial blue, and his right eye turning inky black. His hair turns a light blue, with a black patch (dotted with white), with sky blue streaks running from the front of his hair to the back. His hair, also, becomes longer, reaching midway down his back. His arms, down to his wrists, become covered in light blue scales, and he has golden bracelets seeming to float around his wrists. A pair of celestial blue horns grow from the sides of his heads and sweep back slightly, branching off into 88 points, with 44 points on each side. The points seem to glow a light blue color. His fingers seem to turn into claws, as do his feet. His pants become torn and tattered, showing more light blue scales underneath, reaching down to his ankles. Golden bracelets also seem to be floating around his ankles, too. The clothes which once graced his upper body seem to burn off from the immense amounts of celestial energy, revealing light blue scales covering every part of his body except from the sides of his neck down. His back seems to have sharp spikes sticking out of it, making his appearance that much more terrifying. He also has a pair of large, blue, scaly dragon wings, which sprout out of his back. There seems to be a strange blue energy in the "veins" of the wings, much like how his hair looks. On his chest are two sapphires in a diamond shape, with a small one above a much larger one. He also seems to have golden accessories, which seem like bits of armor, gracing him all over his body. He also seems to have a cape, as if created from the night sky, which shimmers behind him. Every now and then, his body exudes a blast of celestial energy, blowing back anything within ten feet of him.
» Celestial Dragon King's Cosmic Roar Aethereus gathers an incredible amount of celestial energy within his mouth, storing in as much as he can. When he has gathered enough, he opens his mouth, and releases an incredibly large stream of celestial energy from his mouth. The blast is large enough that it seems like the actual universe is within it. The blast is destructive enough to ravage the land beneath it, and leave a large, U-Shaped valley in its wake. It could easily take out a whole town. Only usable in Celestial Dragon King Mode. » Celestial Dragon King's Stardust Fist Aethereus gathers extreme amounts of celestial energy on his hand, causing it to become covered in a mass of inky blackness, dotted with white, as if to resemble the night sky. He then delivers this punch in one fell movement, causing whatever is hit to completely turn to stardust, and scatter in the wind, regardless of the victim or object's size. Only usable in Celestial Dragon King Mode. » Celestial Dragon King's Meteor Storm Aethereus gathers celestial energy in his mouth, as if gearing up for a Celestial Dragon King's Cosmic Roar. But, when he opens his mouth to release his attack, it doesn't come out as a stream. Instead, multiple orbs of celestial energy shoot out wherever he's facing. Each of these orbs pack an incredible punch, causing a crater about twenty feet wide and twenty feet deep to form wherever they explode, causing anything within the dissipate into stardust. Only usable in Celestial Dragon King Mode.
◆Embodiment of the 88 Constellations: Cronus Smasher: The predominant Dragon Slayer's Secret Art of Celestial Dragon Slayer Magic, which are the strongest techniques of a Dragon Slayer; it is a a spell best suited to terrible linear destruction. To start this off, Aethereus will first bring his hands together, the palms vertically parallel from another. Aethereus will then focus before utilizing his magical energy in order to manifest and alter the eternano which is saturated throughout the atmosphere by inducing the usual fusion between the energies dwelling within his body with the ambient supernatural particles; this results in both components of the activation phase becoming entwined and their existence is transmogrified into that of protons which Aethereus can then alter the movement of them, taking it one step further in order to simulate the effect reflecting and absorbing stardust either second-hand or manually, producing starlight, which is a glittering onyx light that reaches the planet from space, all focused around his forearms and hands. Once a sufficient amount of eternano and celestial energy has been gathered, Aethereus shall form the gathered energy around his forearms and hands, making them seem as though they are made from the very element Aethereus controls. With them coated in celestial energies, Aethereus will clasp his hands together before gathering even more eternano and celestial energy into his forearms and hands, causing the glittering onyx energy to shine even more and grow in volume. When Aethereus has as much eternano and celestial energy he can take, he will dash at this opponent, smashing his clasped fists into the opponent, causing all of the gathered energy to be released, creating a long linear blast of celestial energy that erupts from Aethereus's clasped hands once they make contact. However this causes a strain on his hands, making them highly painful to move.
◆Embodiment of the 88 Constellations: Galaxy Spiral: A spell best suited to terrible destruction in a similar manner to Crimson Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade, serving as an attack where the caster swipes his arms in a circular fashion, creating a powerful, and highly destructive, torrent of starlight that barrage his target. When performing Galaxy Spiral, the caster focuses his energies intently, before utilizing his magical energy in order to manifest and alter the eternano which is saturated throughout the atmosphere by inducing the usual fusion between the energies dwelling within his body with the ambient supernatural particles; this results in both components of the activation phase becoming entwined and his existence is transmogrified into that of protons which Aethereus can then alter the movement of them, taking it one step further in order to simulate the effect reflecting and absorbing the light of the star either second-hand or manually, producing starlight, which is a glittering onyx light that reaches the planet from the stars, all focused around his hands, before expanding them into long torrents of starlight. Once this is done, Aethereus swings his arms around in the target, launching a powerful two-streamed blast of starlight which hits many times, creating what looks like a spiraling galaxy. The cool torrents of starlight expand vertically as they move away from the user; opponents that come in contact with the vortex as it moves forward are knocked slightly to the side, and are thus forced to travel with it. Opponents that are in the center of the vortex are more easily trapped by it. Aethereus recoils slightly when they perform the attack, but they are unaffected by gravity until the move ends, so it is mostly insignificant. The move is capable of hitting about eight times a second, although this is unlikely due to the speed the streams spin at and the knockback delivered, with each connecting strike generating a powerful piercing effect that shreds the opponent while rending most opposing defenses in twain, with an even larger slicing effect that causes an explosion ending the barrage- the blast radius of the final explosion looks like a huge sphere of negative space 5 meters across, with neat slices taken out of surrounding buildings, pavement, vehicles, hillsides, et cetera; there appears to have been no actual heat, let alone shockwaves, emanating from the explosion at all - the only result is that a massive spherical section of the area appears to be missing. Despite being a powerful attack, it has one major flaw: if the opponents are far away from the user, they can avoid the attack by jumping over it. However, it makes it up by inflicting damage on a wide range of multiple enemies and pushing them back quite some distance without allowing recovery, possibly even dragging opponents off the side. Along with its astounding destructive power, the attack has a delayed effect if the initial blast should fail, wherein the target will be blasted by residual effects left over by the volley of starlight; absolutely obliterating the opponent.
◆Draconic Transformation: This spell allows Aethereus to completely transform into a full-grown Dragon, his size and form representing that of a Western Dragon. He also seems to give off an aura befitting of their element, which is lightning, making it difficult to approach him. He can easily fly incredibly high or far, and take down scores of Mages with absolute ease. Though when transforming into a Human once more, Aethereus is usually bedridden between one and three days. Unless his stamina is healed to get them in tip-top shape again.
◆0. The Fool: This card completely nullifies all Magic, whether it be currently in effect, or getting ready to be used. It also does work on any and (almost) all Magic Items. But the thing is, it also nullifies the user's own Magic, too. Except for this card.
◆XXI. The World: Possibly the strongest spell and card in the entire arsenal of Arcana Magic. Using this card teleports Aethereus, and those around him, to a completely different world. Quite possibly Edolas, too. Though usually, it's a world that none have ever seen before, or that none would think exist. It's the card that quite possibly ties all timelines into one, and offers to secrets to what lies beyond all known knowledge. A very dangerous card, indeed.
◆Urano Metria: When Aethereus recites the incantation, the 88 constellations of the sky come down as spheres and bestow their power upon him. Aethereusn then aims at his intended target and releases the energy gathered into a tremendous attack.
Survey the Heavens, Open the Heavens... All the stars, far and wide... Show me thy appearance... With such shine. Oh Tetrabiblos... I am the ruler of the stars... Aspect become complete... Open thy malevolent gate. Oh 88 Stars of the heaven... Shine! Urano Metria!
◆Star Dress: The Golden Bull, Taurus: Aethereus incorporates the power of Taurus into his body. As a result, he dons an outfit consisting of a vest with a cow pattern and black pants, with strings hanging off them. He also dons a pair of gloves and boots as well as a belt and a bag around his waist. While sporting this outfit, his ponytail seems to disappear, and his hair seems to form two horns, very reminiscent of a bull's. The black spot in his hair seems to become splotched black and white. Additionally, Taurus's zodiac sign is located on his belt buckle.
◆Star Dress: The Ram, Aries: Aethereus incorporates the power of Aries into his body. As a result he is granted an outfit consisting of a two-toned black and white, short woolen coat that ends at his mid-thigh level. The coat covers his arms, but leaves his chest open. Underneath the coat, Aethereus's arms are covered by pink woolen arm warmers and a woolen scarf is wrapped around his neck. His legs are covered, also, by a pink wool, with a pair of black and white pants over then. Aethereus bares a tattoo of Aries' zodiac sign in the middle of his chest. Aethereus's hair is styled into bangs framing his face whilst two gold ram horns sit aside his head, behind and between which a ponytail emerges. The black spit in his hair also turns pink.
◆Star Dress: The Archer, Sagittarius: Aethereus incorporates the power of Sagittarius into his body, which grants him an outfit consisting of a twin tailed coat and sleeves that leave the shoulders and upper back bare. He also has on a pair of emerald colored pants. A pair of dark boots with light trim at the top, which split above the knees are also donned. His legs seem to have become much like a horse's, though he can easily move like this. His hair has become much longer, tied back into a ponytail, and the black spot of his hair has turned brown. In addition, Sagittarius's zodiac sign is located on his left shoulder.
◆Star Dress: The Heavenly Scales, Libra: Aethereus incorporates the power of Libra into his body. As a result, he is granted an outfit which makes him look like an Arabian thief. Around his neck, many necklaces of solid gold appear, which rest against his skin, as he has no shirt on. His hair slowly shifts color to become a full onyx black, much like Libra's own hair, and the black spot in his hair turns emerald. He gain a pair of large, loose pants, which seem to flutter in the breeze, and a pair of cloth shoes, which seem to have curved points on them. He also seems to gain a sort of fez on his head, which is ruby in color, with a golden tassel. He also has scales which hang from his hands, much like Libra does. One of the golden necklaces around his neck has an emerald insignia hanging from it which, upon closer inspection, is Libra's symbol.
◆Star Dress: The Year of the Tiger, Yin: Aethereus takes the power of Yin into his body, causing him to transform. His clothing slowly shifts into something reminiscent of a sky blue kimono, which is open in the chest area. This reveals bandages which are wrapped around his chest, and also around his arms. He has on a pair of white pants, with what seem to be wooden sandals with sock on his feet. His hair turns completely white, with black stripes in it, and his teeth seem to change shape and become much like a tiger's. On his chest, in an area uncovered by bandages, is the symbol of the Year of the Tiger. He also seems to grow a pair of tiger ears, which can be seen on his head.
◆Star Dress: Year of the Dragon, Chen: When in this form, Aethereus's chest and arms become covered in thick, crimson red dragon scales. He has on a pair of ragged and torn black pants, which reveal more crimson red dragon scales underneath. His face seems to be spared from this transformation for the most part, with only the edges of his face covered in scales. He dons a red cape which flows like fire in the wind, and has the symbol of the Year of the Dragon on it. A pair of large, blown-back style horns emerge from Aethereus's temples, giving him an even more threatening and draconic look. His hair stays white, but the black tuft becomes reddish-brown in color.
◆Star Dress: Year of the Rabbit, Mao: When Aethereus goes into this form, the first noticeable thing about him are the snowy white rabbit ears that sit atop his head. His hair is still white, but the black tuft has become light purple. He dons a red overcoat, with a white undershirt underneath, and what seems to be white fur poking over the top of the shirt. His arms are also covered in this snowy white fur, which is quite soft to the touch. He has on a pair of snowy white pants, with a pair of black dress shoes to tie the outfit together. On his legs is more of the white fur, which can be seen peeking out under the hem of his pants. Hanging at his side is a pocketwatch with the symbol of the Year of the Rabbit on it.
◆Star Dress: The Year of the Snake, Si: Aethereus draws the power of Si into his body. As such, he now wears a hooded yellow cape with black markings and large rolled-up cuffs along with long black ribbons and bandages across his arms. He also retains a few articles of clothing from Si's clothing, including an open shirt beneath his vest that shows his chest, a loose black tie, two belts, and black pants. He also seems to have a phantasmic black and green snakes which hovers around his body, but cannot attack, and cannot be attacked. Whenever his hood comes down, it's revealed his white hair has become spiked, the black tuft in his hair having become green. In the middle of his chest is the symbol of the Year of the Snake.
◆Star Dress: The Yellow Dragon, Yinglong: When Aethereus goes into this form, the first thing that happens is that he sprouts a pair of golden dragon wings, which rip through a yellow cloak that would have appeared on him, causing the wings to be covered in parts of this now tattered clothing. From the top of his head sprouts a pair of golden dragon's horns, which look a lot like branches. Up and down his arms, legs, and speckling his chest are golden scales. He has on a pair of white, baggy pants, with his feet having become dragon's talons. His hair is still snowhy white, but the black tuft has become blonde. On each of the golden wings is the symbol for The Yellow Dragon.
◆Black Hole: Aethereus spreads his darkness over a large area and, much like an actual black hole, swallows up anything they choose. When swallowed by the abyss, the person or object is subjected to a large amount of gravity and crushed. This technique was once used to swallow up an entire town, but caused Aethereus to be so worn afterwards they collapsed.
◆Liberation: Aethereus expels all of the destroyed remains of what his abyss had swallowed up at once. This is especially good at demonstrating his power. When expelled, that which is shot out comes flying at high speeds over a large area, capable of destroying everything in Aethereus's path. From the rubble of buildings, to even actual weapons, though upon using this attack, Aethereus is left worn and tired.
▅▅OTHER SKILLS▅▅
Requip: Used mainly by Aethereus for various clothing changes. Also to store various items that make it difficult for him to walk around with.
Thought Projection: Used by Aethereus whenever he's too busy elsewhere to go somewhere personally. When using a Thought Projection, it has all of his abilities and skills. Both his and the Projection's levels are equal to a Guild Master, since their true power is cut in half.
Master Hand to Hand Combatant: Masters of unarmed combat possess the greatest prowess of all, being capable of easily taking on several opponents at once with ease. Some of them are known to employ hand-to-hand combat as the main element of their fighting style, and can overwhelm foes even if they are armed or larger than the users themselves.
Master Weapons User: Not a master of all weapons, but instead a master of his own weapons, and ones like them. Many, many years of training have allowed him to hone his skills with these weapons, making them seem like another limb to him. But if it comes to a weapon he's never used... he's like a new born babe with it.
Keen Intellect: Aethereus has proven to have some brains behind all of his brawn. He's able to figure out most things very quickly, or even think up great strategies. He can also play a great game of chess.
Immense Durability: Aethereus has a pretty resilient body, able to take being thrown through a wall or struck by very powerful magic, and still be left standing. Though he can, like all others, still suffer effects. Though he'd be likely to stay standing longer than others would.
Immense Strength: Along with very high durability, Aethereus also has a very high amount of strength. He'd be able to life a very large boulder, or punch said boulder into tiny pebbles. He'd probably be able to life a house if the time called for it.
Enhanced Reflexes: Aethereus has displayed extremely sharp reflexes and a high degree of speed and agility. Some would consider him as quick as a lightning bolt.
Immense Magic Power: Aethereus possesses an immense level of Magic Power, which, befitting his Magic and theme, manifests itself in the form of electricity. This can appear from his body in various amounts, from simple sparks, when he wants to intimidate opponents or is annoyed, to a potent lightning aura around him, which damages the surrounding area, when he's enraged. In the latter state, lightning even starts to appear from his eyes and mouth.
Intimidation: An incredibly powerful physical ability that only a rare few have the capacity to use, a technique in which powerful individuals can instill fear into their opponents by completely and utterly overwhelming their senses and bodies by exuding their true power in massive volumes, slowly crushing their will to battle and crushing their confidence to dust. Normally activated by either performing a physically imposing feat (such as displaying their strength or making frightening features) or creating realistic frightening illusions by unleashing their murderous intent and magic energy to the absolute max, which can instill fear into any weaker being and cause them to lose consciousness.
Often called the Spirit Shout this skill is non-magic in nature and can only be produced by those in possession of a presence and willpower that is vastly more powerful than ordinary people. This technique is most commonly seen used by Earth Land's most powerful warriors and wizards, as they are the only ones possessing the "potential" for utilizing such an advanced technique, often seen as a badge of honor that symbolizes just how unique they are, putting them in a league of their own.
Enhanced Smell and Hearing: Aethereus has a nose that can smell things from miles away. Whether it be a person, an object, or a certain type of food. His hearing is also pretty good, so it'd be easy for him to eavesdrop from a considerable distance. Although other sounds can still mix in, he can manage to focus on just one sound.
Dancing - He actually learned how to dance on his own. You'd be surprised just how well he can dance, and even the dance moves he may know.
Cooking/Baking - He's a great cook and baker,and can make some pretty good food and desserts with whatever cooking equipment he has.
First Aid - He can do a pretty great job at helping someone,mortally injured or not. Though, mortally injured is a bit... more difficult. Either way, it's usually only temporary, since he isn't exactly a doctor.
Survival Skills - Due to having traveled for so long in his life, he has developed advanced survival skills. He's the person you'd want to have with you on a deserted island.
◆ Pᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ: Aethereus is a man whose appearance doesn't speak well for who he is. The way he looks makes one think he's someone who keeps to himself, and is bored of almost everything. Someone who could never have fun, even if they had to to survive. But see, the thing is, this isn't who Aethereus really is.
Aethereus is a kind and caring soul, sticking up for those who can't do it themselves. He seems to severely dislike those that pick on the weak and helpless, deciding to take matters into his own hand. Though usually the person he's trying to help usually doesn't want his help. Even so, he will help them anyway, so that they don't get injured. He never turns down a battle, and will always do his best to win. He does have a small flirty side to him. He rarely ever lets this side out, though, unless he trusts the one he's flirting with. Or he might even flirt without knowing it. This makes him dangerous either for way, because for him it usually leads to a hard slap. Or going out with someone that he just wanted to be friends with. He has a pretty big goofball side of himself, which is pretty good when trying to make others laugh. He seems to have a way to tickle everyone's funny bone, unless they're an enemy of his, or just... really sad and miserable. This is, for the most part, the most desirable side of Aethereus.
It should also be mentioned that Aethereus is, honestly, a sarcastic little s**t. He's also a sass master, and doesn't really take anything from anybody. Honestly, this can be pretty funny at times, especially in situations where everyone else is feeling down. So it's not necessarily a bad thing, unless he's talking to someone who's easily offended by things like that. He also seems like he doesn't care about much, but in truth, does hold things close to his heart. This, at times, can be a bit dangerous though, given that he'd risk his life to save that of his friend's. He also managed to find great amusement in many things, though mostly bad situations. This is also bad, since he usually comments on things like this, and manages to get many glares or hits. But it's really just him trying to have fun. This part of his personality is possibly due to when he was experimented on, and his old and new personalities accidentally merged together to create a whole new part of him. Though this part of his personality isn't all that bad.
He does sometimes have a short temper, and usually destroys whatever is making him angry. He's quick to confuse people, too. He has a deep care for children and his siblings, and any friends that he may make. He can be quite a nice and funny person when he wants to be, but when he gets angry, he loses all control of himself. He cares greatly for his friends, and he never hesitates to do anything to save them. He can come off as standoffish, and even mentally unstable, but he is ultimately a caring and selfless person. He's a good person to have as a friend, but dangerous to have as an enemy.
Next is his battle personality, which varies greatly between his regular human form, and his Celestious Form. His human form variant seems to fight gracefully, as if he were dancing. He also doesn't let his emotions get the better of him, causing him to become blind and attack wildly. He reads his opponent and tries to find different ways to counter whatever attacks may be thrown at him. Though he also seems to want to finish things off quickly, unless his opponent intrigues him. Then he'll try and carry out the battle as long as possible. In his Celestious Form, his battle personality does a complete flip. Instead of being calm and graceful, he becomes a barbaric, powerful, and savage opponent. He will fight, and keep fighting, until he manages to defeat his opponent. He seems to be much more calculating too, despite his constant onslaught, and watches his enemy whenever they have an opening. That way he can easily counter and continue his deadly onslaught of attack.
◆ Bɪᴏɢʀᴀᴘʜʏ:
How it all Began Aethereus's birth began when a Dragon Halfling met a true angel while exploring the Andromeda continent. Had it not been for this truly fateful encounter, then the young male may have never been born. He was born under the night sky, during a lunar eclipse. While many have seen this as an omen of bad fortune, his parents saw it as anything but. In their eyes, he was more of a blessing than anything. And in truth, that's what he was given that day; a Blessing. But little did anyone know that his life was about to take a walk down a twisted path of fate, with despair at nearly every turn. It was not because he was born as the High Prince of Veneficium, but because the gods saw him as nothing more than their personal plaything. Why they decided to choose him, he never found out, but looking back, he realizes now that he never should've let that fated day come for him.
A Life Short Lived; Restart #1 The fateful day. He had just turned eight, and it was his birthday. The best day for any kid to have! But this day would turn out to be just the beginning of his horrible life. It was just like any other child's birthday. He had his friends over, there were a bunch of presents, there was a giant cake, it was just the best for him overall. Shortly after eating cake and opening his presents, little Aethereus and his friends ran around and played, soon coming to a rather large tree. His friends decided to climb it, though one of them almost fell, causing a large branch to fall onto the ground. Aethereus just barely managed to dodge it, and yelled up at his friend, before shaking his head. Soon everyone (except Aether) had climbed the tree, and now they were daring Aethereus to climb it himself. His dad had always told him to stay away from climbing trees until he was older, but he just couldn't disappoint his friends. So, he began climbing, up to the top. He reached it safely, and looked down at his friends, who looked so small. With a shudder, he began his descent down... but his foot slipped. All he remembered was falling, before feeling a sharp pain in his back and through his stomach. The pain was so severe, and he felt his vision going dark. He remembered faintly hearing his mother call, before slipping away...
What Rebirth is Like And then, he was waking up in bed. He lifted up his shirt, but saw no wound, or even a scar! The Healing Mages must have gotten to him pretty quick. Without a second thought, he hopped out of bed, and got dressed, before going to see his mother and ask where she had placed his parents. After a bit of searching, he had managed to finally find her, and as he was about to ask her about his presents, she said something... slightly chilling to him. She asked if he was ready for his birthday party tomorrow, and at first he thought she was joking. So he had asked what she said, to make sure he didn't mishear. And, he didn't, so without further warning, he excused himself, and continued on with his day. And, just as his mother spoke, his birthday came the next day. Everything was almost identical; the friends that showed up, the cake, the presents, and even the tree climbing! Though this time, when urged by his friends to climb it, he declined. His parents then showed up, shooing the kids from the tree, and Aethereus took a look back. And as he did, he swore that he saw a vision of himself, impaled on that tree branch on the ground. He felt like crying, but turned to face forward once again, ready to end the day.
The Great War Around the age of eleven, life started to get better for Aethereus. He had finally started to forget about that incident back when he was eight, and everything seemed to happen so strangely on that one day. Remembering it now, he felt like an idiot, believing that he had essentially been reborn. Though he decided not to bring it up with anyone, lest they all think he was crazy. He didn't even share it with his dad, who he trusted with pretty much all of his secrets. So, over the past three years, he had worked on all of his princely training, and trying to forget that memory. But what he had not expected was another continent to come knocking at their front door... with an army. Apparently someone decided it was a great idea to attack Veneficium, and so, the first, and final, Great War went underway. Aethereus wanted to join in the battle, but as Prince, he had to hang back, in case something happened to his father while in battle. But of course, he didn't listen to these wise words. And he should have, for maybe then, he would've been spared what would be happening next. If only he hadn't gone against his parents' wishes, maybe he wouldn't be as he is today.
Meaning of War; Restart #2 Having sneaked out of the castle, Aethereus headed to Praeclarus, where the war was taking place. The opposing army had barely made it halfway to the middle of the continent so far, which meant that the Venefician forces were doing a great job at keeping them back. Though it was likely due to the combined efforts of his mother and father at the front lines. With excitement pushing him forward, Aethereus began making his way to the front lines, ducking and diving between and under soldiers. They all realized who he was, and tried their best to stop him, but he got away from them too quickly. And of course he shouldn't have been out here; he had no weapons and no Magic either! Having come out here was pretty much the equivalent of asking someone to chop your head off. And... well, that's basically what happened to him. He had run in to an enemy soldier, who had a rather large sword in his hands. He realized who Aethereus was, and a smirk formed on his face. He said something, the words of which Aethereus cannot remember, before slicing the Prince's head clean off. Everything went dark in that moment, and he was sure he saw his body fall over before he gave in to the abyss.
The Aftermath of it All He woke only seconds later, gripping his neck and screaming in fear. His parents rushed into his room (his father in his boxers) to see what was wrong, and it was then he realized... it was just like three years ago. There was no way this could be a coincidence... right? He continued shaking like a leaf in his bed, warning his parents of the upcoming war. They seemed doubtful at first, but as he explained the whole thing (which he acted as if it were a dream), they seemed to believe him even more, and sent soldiers to guard the coast he talked about. And, just as Aethereus spoke of it, war came for them. It was just as horrible and bloody as it was when "explored" it before he died... as he was told. There was no way that he was going back to that warzone. Who knows what he would've saw if he had decided to do so. He might've seen an illusion of his death again, which would drive him crazier. But, overall, the war lasted for about a year, before the enemy army was defeated. Everyone in Veneficium celebrated... except for Aethereus. The thought of his death was imprinted permanently in his mind, and there was no way he would be forgetting it anytime soon.
Return to Peace Another year passed, and Aethereus was still as screwy as he was before. Though this time, he decided to bring it up with his dad. His dad was pretty understandable about it, and tried to to figure out how to help him... but he wasn't sure how Papa Anti had never dealt with anything like this before. But he decided that, just maybe, it was time for Aethereus to learn some Magic. The boy was twelve now, and his own power would be coming in soon. Aethereus was honestly pretty excited, forgetting about the war a couple years ago, and deciding to focus on training with his father. He learned much from the man, given his dad was a Lightning Dragon Slayer, and this essentially made Aethereus a 4th Generation Dragon Slayer. But instead of using Lightning Magic, he discovered he leaned more towards the celestial energy side of the Magic world. Discovering this, his dad disappeared for a few days, before coming back to relay some very important news to his son. He had found an actual Celestial Dragon whom would take Aethereus under her wing! The male was actually excited to learn from a Dragon, especially since it got him out of the castle. And so he spent the week preparing, before heading to Drakontas to meet with Celestia.
Celestia, The Celestial Dragon Celestia was, suffice to say, a rather loud and proud Dragon. And Aethereus was happy to learn from her. The pair trained together in any climate they came, day after day, for hours each day. That is, until Aethereus mastered all the Spells that Celestia could teach him. After he did this, she took to teaching him the ways of a Dragon, and secrets she hadn't shown him before, until she was sure he was ready for them. She taught him all about Dragon Force and even the Dragon Drive and Dragon King Mode. Though of course, she told him that to access the latter, she would have to kill him. Aethereus looked appalled at this, but the Dragon laughed heartily, telling the young boy she was nearing her end either way. So she gave him one last gift, implanting him with a Celestial Dragon Lacrima, before challenging the young male to his final test. The four years of training would decide his fate here. The pair battled for three days and three nights, but eventually, Aethereus came out on top. He bathed in the Dragon's blood, before taking her soul and absorbing it into his body. All of her memories became his, and he fell to his knees. It was this day that he would become a Dragonslayer, slaying evil Dragons as the need arose. But for now, he opted to return home, to his parents.
Learning New Magics For the next couple of years, the young boy decided to learn his home continent's special Magics, in case the day ever arrived that he would need them to battle. He also took to learning of Magics from Mages that visited from other continents, always being the curious boy. He trained for hours a day with these Magics, so that he could get better at them, and easier protect his family. By now, he and his father had forgotten about his incident back after the Great War, and neither of them brought it up. Things seemed to be, once again, getting better for him. Things were going swell, he was doing better with all of his studies, it seemed as if the gods were done playing with him. Though, this was only a respite they had decided to give him, allowing him to grow strong so they could have much more fun breaking him. His memories of his death would be triggered once more, in the upcoming days... though he did not know this, and to this day, wishes he could forget all about them.
An Assassin Appears; Restart #3 During a knighting ceremony one day, nearly all the most important people from the countries came. It seemed that this man was a rather big deal, having achieved many great and different Heroic feats. These feats had been recognized by the High King, Antikinis, himself. And so, he was to knight the man, making him one of Arcus Pluvius Castle's guardians. It was a great honor for anyone to have in the day, and so, of course everyone was coming to see it. Everyone seemed to be rather excited, Aethereus included, but he just couldn't keep his focus off a single shady figure. He had never seen the person around before, and whenever he tried approaching them, they would just back off, or run away from him. Though as suspicious as he was, the ceremony was beginning, so he found his seat, and watched it. About halfway through, his father froze, and from his stomach, a sword appeared. Screaming ensued, and everyone began falling like flies. Aethereus saw the shady figure from before, and tried to attack, but was promptly stopped by a dagger thrown at his throat. He reached up and clawed at it, blood gurgling forth from his mouth as he dropped to the floor, clinging for dear life. But, he soon choked on his own blood, and his vision faded once more...
Stayin' Alive... Somehow And just like that, his eyes opened moments later, and he was at the coronation was at the coronation once again. It was only a few minutes before his father was killed, and then everyone died soon after. So without warning, after he got his bearings and right as the ceremony started, he jumped out of his chair, dashing by his father and tackling the assassin right as he poised his sword to strike. Aethereus got a rather nasty cut on his side but ignored it, bringing the assassin down for the guards to take care of. Everyone was rather surprised by this act, but the coronation continued, with Aether being taken away to have his side healed. He was then set on bed rest for the rest of the day, and was awaiting a scolding from his parents. Instead, only his dad came, and the look in his eyes said everything. Once again, Aethereus explained what happened at the coronation where he died, shuddering at the word "die" again. His father nodded in understanding, and decided that it was time for him to get to the bottom of this. It was the question of if the Gods were toying with him, or if fate had much more in store for the young boy. The answer would be coming sooner than either of them realized.
A Dragon Attacks; Restart #4 One rather pleasant day in the Arcus Pluvius Castle, everything was going just swell. It had been two weeks since the coronation of the guard, and he was doing his job of protecting the castle rather well. Though his life would come to a short, rather unpleasant end, for a dragon decided to attack on this fine day. It came from nowhere, gobbling up the castle guards as if they were squishy, delicious jello. Antikinis gathered all of their forces to attack the Dragon, and jumped down himself, to battle it was a Dragon Slayer. Finally believing he would be able to do good with his Magic, Aethereus rushed down to join them, slipping on his clothes as he did so, ready to battle. Though the battle seemed to be pretty one-sided, as his father was mortally wounded, and unable to continue fighting. So he took his father's place in battle, and began dueling the Dragon. Though, this Dragon was nothing like Celestia. It seemed to be at its peak, and not even close to dying of age. The battle was cut short as it knocked Aethereus out of the air, and breathed its fire on him. He screamed in pain as he was slowly roasted alive, fading into unconsciousness as the pain finally overtook him.
Failing to Keep Them Safe; Restart #5 He barely had time to dodge as he was almost hit by the Dragon's attack, "waking up" in this new timeline. It seemed to be only minutes before he was burnt to a crisp by it, so he had to do his best to avoid that this time. It seemed that, after dodging its fire breath, the Dragon got bored of him, and flew off to the higher parts of the castle. Aethereus was about to give chase, but checked to make sure his father was fine first. Thankfully, some Healing Mages had come along, and got to work on patching him up. Noticing this, the male decided it was time to bring an end to this Dragon. He ran back into the castle, dodging past everyone who was panicking as he did so. The whole castle seemed to be in ruins for the most part, making Aethereus think there was likely more than one Dragon attacking the castle, but he had not time to worry about that. After a bit more running, he managed to make it to the top of the castle, and saw the Dragon sitting there, as if awaiting him. The two engaged in combat once again, but it seemed as if fate wasn't on Aethereus's side. For halfway through the battle, the Dragon picked him up in its mouth, eating him alive. He could feel his own bones breaking as the teeth punctured his body, before he was swallowed, his now mangled corpse melting in the darkness of the Dragon's stomach acid.
Just a Little More Time...; Restart #6 Suddenly he had run into a wall, and was rubbing his head as he looked around once again. Looks like he was back in the castle, where he had been diving between the panicking people to get through earlier. He punched the wall, putting a hole in it, as he saw the guards running to reach the top of the castle. He decided to leave this to them for now, as he decided to try and find a different approach. His mind believed that the Dragon was likely getting its power from the smaller Dragons that seemed to also be attacking the castle. Giving a nod, he decided to take them down first, before going after the big one. So he took to this task, running outside and facing all of them down, one by one. Soon his goal was completed, and all of the little Dragons were dead, their souls now a part of him. Now it was time to face off against the big one again, which he knew was still alive for he heard it roaring at the top of the castle. He smirked, feeling victorious this time, as he raced up the castle's walls, reaching the top. As he did so, the Dragon swung its tail at the guards, causing a column to fall over, right on top of Aethereus. It was the end for him once again, as he felt blood filling his lungs. He coughed up most of what he could, before the pressure of the column on his body broke his bones, his lungs and heart being pierced, as he faded, once again, into the abyss...
The Young Prince Prevails And managed to wake up, dodging the column as it fell towards him. He was really starting to get tired of all of this, and his anger fueled his body giving him power he never thought imaginable. In one swift movement, his body exploded with celestial energy, and his form slowly changed, forcing him into the fabled Dragon King Mode. He effortlessly took the Dragon down in this state, ripping its head clean off once it was dead and holding it up high, flying into the sky so everyone would be able to see it. He then turned the body to stardust, by giving it one powerful punch, watching as it blew away in the wind. He then dropped the Dragon head, and went back to his regular state, his body tired and worn by the sudden transformation, and causing him to pass out. Though he awoke a few days later, and was celebrated as a Hero of the Kingdom, for having killed the Dragon. The castle was also being rebuilt with the help from other countries pitching in, using their power to repair it. He gave a sigh of relief and laughed, using his now free time to rest. He wasn't sure he'd be able to pull off something like that again. But now... all of his deaths were on his mind. He would have to discuss this with his father later. Thankfully all of his family survived, which made him quite ecstatic. But things would not be this way long. His mother's time was coming to an end...
Mother Disappears; Restart #7 It had been two years since the great battle against the Dragon at Arcus Pluvius Castle, but even still Aethereus was being celebrated as a Hero. He was sixteen now, and soon he would taking the crown from his father at the age of eighteen. But to be honest, he wasn't fully prepared for that. He just wanted to continue enjoying life with his parents. But recently, his mother had been acting rather strange, as if something was going wrong with her. And every time he tried talking to her about it, she just shrugged it off, acting as if nothing was wrong. But one night, she seemed to disappear, going somewhere no one was able to find her. But, given his heightened senses, Aethereus decided to follow after her, tracing her scent and leaving without letting anyone know. He found her after a couple hours, talking with someone who looked to be rather terrifying. He looked upon their shoulder and spotted a rather peculiar tattoo. One that he actually knew to be a Guild Mark, from one of the Mages' Guilds located throughout Veneficium. But this particular one was a Dark Guild mark, which made him wonder why his mother was speaking to the figure. Without warning, the Dark Mage attacked, and Aethereus jumped in to save her. His mother saw him, and tried to stop him, but was too slow, as she could only watch as deadly lightning Magic made contact with his body. It caused him to fall on the ground, his body twitching... but the life was gone from his eyes. He didn't even remember his mother yelling his name.
Can't Lose Her; Restart #8 But he awoke, hiding where he was just moments before he had jumped out to save his mother. He stayed hidden this time, deciding to listen more intently to what they were talking about. The Dark Mage seemed to be saying something about protection, which his mother kept denying. He guessed that this guy was trying to blackmail his mom, or threatened killing her family members, just so his dad, or even Aethereus himself, would give his guild protection. Which meant, chances were, this guy was no normal Dark Mage. He was actually a Dark Guildmaster. The thought of this just made his blood boil, and he wanted to strike the man down. But considering he managed to kill Aethereus so easily, he guessed that would be impossible to do if he charged in blindly. So this time he decided to stay hidden and watch the fight, to try and get some intel on the opponent. But it seemed he waited too long, for one of the man's attacks struck his mother, seeming to kill her. Enraged once again, Aethereus screamed and ran out of his hiding place, charging towards the man. The world seemed to freeze as the man smirked at Aethereus. He realized that smirk... but it was too late for him to stop. Before he could understand what was happening, he had been impaled with a greatsword, the same one that lopped his head off back when he joined in the war. This man was from Fiore, which meant he had moved over here after somehow managing to escape. But there was nothing he could do now, as he fell back to the ground, a large hole in his body. He remembered crawling towards his dying mother, cuddling up against her before he faced the darkness of death once more.
There Has to be a Way to Save Her...; Restart #9 And upon awaking once again, saw his mother get struck once more. He charged out again, forgetting what had just happened, but managed to dodge the sword as it was thrust at him. He countered with his own Magic, and the two proceeded to have an all out battle. But Aethereus was severely outmatched, for it seemed the Dark Guildmaster had much more experience than he did, and was just toying with him now. He was blown back by one of the man's magic, his breath escaping as he landed hard on his back beside his mother, causing him to have a coughing fit as he worked on regaining his breath. The man approached the two slowly, but Aethereus was in no shape to get up. As he tried to do so, he felt himself get pulled down, and his mother charged at the man with a rather powerful Magic. But the man seemed to be prepared for this and sliced his mother's body, cutting her in half. Aethereus could watch only in horror at this, eyes full of fear as he turned to face the man. As the man approached, he grabbed Aethereus's face, picking him up off the ground. And the boy did not fight, for he knew it was over. The last thing he remembered were his veins going cold before his whole body was frozen solid, and being shattered.
What Fate Has in Store; Restart #10 And once more, he was faced with his mother being hit before him again. Primal rage came forth unto him once again, and he repeated the previous steps, managing to dodge his opponent's every move. The man seemed to be surprised at the fact that a kid like Aethereus was able to go toe to toe against him, and eventually cripple him, coming out on top. His mother lay, barely breathing just a couple yards away from them, facing away from them. Which was good, considering what Aethereus was about to do. His hands suddenly shifted into Dragon's claws, and he gripped each side of the Dark Guildmaster's head. Then he slowly started to push in, the man's screams falling upon deaf ears as his head was crushed. Soon, silence fell upon the battlefield, remains of gore on Aethereus's hands as the now headless body before him fell back onto the ground. His hands returned to normal, and he turned to see his mother, who had now looked at him. Tears welled up in his eyes as he saw this, and he started running towards her. But he heard a noise shoot past his ear, and saw his mother's body stiffen, before her head fell to the ground, the life gone from her eyes. But before Aethereus had a chance to scream for her, he felt something push through the back of his skull, and come out between his eyes. It was then his lifeless body joined his mother's on the ground.
Loss of a Mother A second went by, and the man's head was in his hands again. Eyes filled with fear looked up into his own, but it was then the young boy remembered what he had done. With a scream of rage, he crushed the man's head quicker than before, turning to face his mother. He ran towards her but, instead of waiting, put up a shield just as the bullet that killed his mother before was shot. He then turned around, dropping the shield to see if he could spot the shooter. And thankfully he did, barely dodging the next bullet that came at him. He could see the glint of their gun in the moonlight, and dashes quickly in their direction. He made a beeline towards them, making it difficult for any of their bullets to connect. He soon reached them and grabbed their gun, sticking the muzzle down their throat and releasing a shot, ending their life quickly. He then dropped the gun, running back to his dying mother's side. He slid to a stop, falling down beside her as she looked up at him. He knew no Healing Magics, and knew that by the time he got her somewhere, she would be dead. Tears welled in his eyes, falling down onto her as she looked up at him, smiling and singing a melody she used to sing to him as a child. Slowly, her body started fading to stardust, and she placed her hand upon his cheek. Her last words to him were "I love you", and then she was... gone. Forever. Aethereus stayed in the position he was until sunrise, crying until someone found him. He then fell to his side, passing out finally.
The Mourning It had been a week since his mother's death, and yet, Aethereus still seemed to have a broken mind. His eyes always seemed to be glazed over and empty, and when offered food, he just sat there, quiet, and had to be hand fed, so that he didn't die from starvation. Though once the week was over, he had returned to... almost normal, and was made to talk to his father, to talk about what had happened, and why two dead Dark Guild Mages were found, yet his mother's corpse was not. Aether's voice sounded strangled as he choked back tears, explaining to his father the four times he died yet came back, trying to save his mother. He then explained that he was unable to do so, but managed to avenge her by killing the two men that killed her. He then explained that, despite all this, he was unable to save her, and her body turned to stardust in his hands. Antikinis listened intently the whole time, managing to hold back his own tears. The man looked at his son, before the two joined together in a hug, Aethereus breaking down but his father staying strong for him. Antikinis then left his son in peace, so that he could regain himself, telling him he(Antikinis) would be there for him if he needed anything. Though, deep in his heart, Aethereus had a feeling that offer would not last long. He knew something bad was going to happen... he just didn't know what. Yet, it wouldn't be until a year later that he found out why he had this feeling.
Father Dies; Restart #11 The whole year had been rough for Aethereus, considering he lost his mother and had to double on his studies to make up for the few months he had missed while his mind recovered from the whole ordeal. As much as he hated this, he decided to just deal with it, considering he had until he was eighteen to learn everything that he could. Though thankfully, the particular day it was seemed like it was going to be a fun one. There was a party which was going to be happening at the castle, in honor of his mother. It would've happened shortly after her death, but considering how everyone seemed to be at the time back then, they decided to throw the party a year after her death, which also happened to fall upon the anniversary of her and Antikinis's marriage. So even if it was hard on the old King, he didn't show it at all. Soon it was time for the party, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Everything was going swell, up until about the climax. Aethereus and Antikinis were dancing like a pair of idiots, until his father suddenly stopped. Aethereus also stopped, to check on his father, but the look on the man's face said everything. He had just been attacked by an unknown force, and was dying. As his father fell to the floor, the room was cleared of everyone, including Aethereus, who continued calling to his father. A few hours later, he was given grim news... he was being crowned High King of Veneficium. Which meant... his father had died. At this point, Aethereus's heart shattered, just as his mind had when his mother died. His eyes glazed over once more, his heart shattered and mind broken, he turned from the men that came to relay the news to him, and opened his window. He then stepped up onto the windowsill and, before the men realized what was happening, Aethereus jumped to the rocks down below. The last thing on his mind was that he might be able to join his father... and the sound of his body breaking as he made contact with the rocks in the ocean.
Unable to Save Him; Restart #12 His eyes gave way to him dancing with his father once more, minutes before he suddenly died. Aethereus grabbed him and pulled his father aside, a serious look on his face. He explained to his father what had happened, and the man's face became just as concerned. He walked back out, telling everyone the party was to be cut short due to him feeling sick. Aethereus gave a relieved sigh, but his victory was short-lived. For his father fell to the ground once more. Aethereus rushed forward, catching him, but was pulled aside by the Healers once again, and escorted to his room. He sat there on his bed, mulling over everything, trying to figure out what sort of Magic could cause his father to fall like that. There was no trace of Magic having been set on him to kill him without anyone noticing, which meant that it had to be cast during the party. The young screamed in rage, throwing himself against a wall. He then punched a glass case in his room, and from it fell multiple bottles. Most of which, he knew, were poisonous. This time, he decided not to wait for the men to come to his room. He began ingesting all the bottles, his heartbeat accelerating, his vision blurring. His limbs began feeling numb and heavy, as he fell back. He remembered someone entering his room and yelling in horror for Healers. But by the time they got there, it was too late. Aethereus had let himself slip into the grip of death once more.
Fate is Cruel and Twisted And he woke once more, dancing alongside his father. He wanted to break down and cry, knowing that he would never be released from this cycle of rebirth, being forced to watch everyone he loved die over and over, and possibly dying himself. He wanted to stop dancing, grab onto his father and never let go. But instead, he decided to enjoy himself with his dad, knowing this was the last time they'd have any fun together. And, right on time just as it was the two times before, Antikinis stopped and fell, dying, to the floor. Though this time, Aethereus let himself be escorted out without fighting, knowing there was nothing he could do. No matter how many times he died and was rebirthed, there was no way he'd be able to save his father, just as he was unable to save his mother. It was as if fate was toying with him, telling him he would never be able to save anyone. And as angry as it made him... he knew this was correct. If he couldn't save his parents, what made him capable of ever saving anyone. He laid in his bed, staring up at the ceiling, his heart in pieces and his mind blank. He then heard a knock at his door, and someone enter the room slowly. He slowly got to his feet to face the Healers, the looks on their faces telling them everything. He then just... broke down, into a sobbing mess. He fell to his knees and cried, in frustration and anger, sorrow and despair. Now both his parents were dead, and even though he tried, he couldn't save them. And now, he was to become High King of Veneficium. After a few hours of crying, he accepted his fate, and awaited his coronation day. But little did he know, fate still had a few horrible surprised in store for him.
The World is s**t...; Restart #13 His coronation came just a few weeks before his eighteenth birthday, which would have officially made him the youngest High King in Veneficium's history. Though he had no reason to be joyful about this. The only reason this was happening was because his father was assassinated. And yes, that was exactly what he believed. Though the Healers and everyone else on the scene say that his father died due to natural reasons, he could not believe it at all. And so, he swore to one day avenge his father by finding his killer, and bringing them to justice. But until then, he had to deal with all the duties of being a King. But his time as King wouldn't be coming anytime soon. For during the coronation, a bunch of Dark Mages broke in, killing most of the people there and kidnapping Aethereus. He took one look at one of the Mage's guild symbols, and realized just why he had been kidnapped by them. He tried to escape, but was knocked out, and woke up only after he was in their headquarters. Just by the looks on their faces, he had a feeling they weren't going to be doing anything nice to him. It started with them first cutting off all of his fingers, letting him bleed for a while before coming in to make sure he was still alive. Upon realizing he was, they proceeded to rip off his hands and feet, once each day, starting with his left hand and going clockwise. Each day he was left to bleed for a few hours before his healing factor kicked in and stopped the bleeding. It was around then they decided to test horrible and painful Magics on him, causing him to scream in both rage and pain, before they decided to remove all of his limbs. Even so, they still weren't done with him, and continued making him feel as much pain as he could, before deciding to rip out his eyeballs, slowly with their hands, listening to him scream the whole time. And when they decided they were finally done with him, they slit his throat, and left him to bleed out... and so he did, dying just a few minutes later...
Trying to Accept Death; Restart #14 Yet he woke up once more, attached to the board they killed him on what felt like seconds earlier. But this time, he mustered all his strength, breaking free and killing all of the Dark Mages before finally escaping. He ran as fast and far as he could, deciding not to go back to the castle. There was no way he would be able to deal with being the King now, especially what he had just been through in his technical "past life". He soon came to a cliff with a tree having grown on it, deciding to rest under it. He had a feeling he would be searched for far and wide now, both by all the Kingdoms and whatever was left of those Dark Mages. He wished his parents were still alive, so that he would have someone to confide in. He wished he had explained everything to his mother, so that maybe then, she would possibly still be alive. He wished that his family wasn't royalty, so that they wouldn't be targeted this way. He wished that he could just finally die permanently, so he wouldn't have to deal with the memories and stress of having died all those times. He wished... he wished that the gods would end him, or let him have a normal life. Let him reset everything, so that maybe he could be given a different hand of fate. That he could control destiny, so that he would not be like this now. He looked out over the edge of the cliff, into the horizon beyond. He then slowly stood up, and started running towards the edge of the cliff. And as he jumped, all his wishes jumbled inside his mind as he fell. It felt like forever until he finally landed upon the sharp rocks below, his body being rend by them, piercing his flesh and heart, ending his life.
What it Takes to Reset Existence And just like that, he was under the tree again. He screamed and cried, beating his fists against the tree as he fell to the ground, laying there and staring up at the sky. That sky... it was still the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. And soon day turned to the night, and he could look up at the stars. His mother and father had laid with him once, pointing out the name of every star and naming all the constellations. Just remembering that made the young man cry, wiping his tears with his sleeve. It was at that point that he decided he had enough. His rage was now turned against the gods, and finding a way to change their creation. He began a trip that would take him seven years just to finish. An adventure, to find a single Spell that would reset all of Existence. He heard his father speaking of it before, and just how powerful it truly was. It seemed that the Gods used it whenever their Creation rebelled against them, and tried bringing them down. But it seemed that the Spell had been lost, even to them. Which meant that this was his chance to get back at them. He would reset their Creation for them, and change his own fate in this way. No longer would he be under their rule, or act as their toy. He would control destiny himself, and with it, change his path. And one day, after seven years of long exploration, he finally found it. Groundhog, the Spell which would reset the whole of Existence, and allow its user to essentially create a new one, by forsaking their own Existence in their current life. This likely meant that he would erase himself completely, but if it allowed him to fight against the Gods, he would take it. All he needed now was to study and understand it.
Groundhog: The Total Reset, Restart #15 After a few months of preparation, Aethereus felt that he were finally ready to use the Groundhog. That whole month he spent training his own Magical Power, for since this Spell was originally meant for use by the Gods, it would likely take a very large amount of Magical Power to cast. So now that he was ready, he studied the texts once again, to prepare and use the spell. Once he finished studying it, he burned the text, so that no one would ever be able to find it and use it ever again, the Gods themselves included. He placed the items he needed on a Magic Circle he made, which was quite surprising, for he heard usage with this type of thing was outdated. But considering how old this Spell possibly was... he decided not to take any shortcuts. As he completed the ritual, he felt something powerful move throughout his body, signifying that it was a success. Now all he had to do was... kill himself. This is what he was truly preparing for, because even though he had died multiple times before, a few of which he killed himself, he knew that it would likely be permanent this time. Though he was glad to finally be rid of this bothersome life and memories, he knew he would be letting down so many people. Pushing these thoughts aside, he sprouted a pair of Dragon wings, flying high into the sky, before retracting them into his body. As he fell, good memories began running through his head. His mother's laughter, the way his father talked about his mom... them just being one big, happy family. These thoughts stayed in his head, even as he made contact with the ground, and his life faded for the last time, in this world.
Posted: Tue Oct 17, 2017 9:07 pm
Regaining Existence He was surrounded by white light on all sides, with nothing else in sight. As far as he could see, it was only whiteness. He tried moving, but it seemed that it was impossible to do so. So he just floated there, in what seemed to be an endless Purgatory. Over and over in his head, he replayed his memories, trying to keep himself as sane as possible. But one day, a doorway of darkness opened before him, as if beckoning him into its depths. Deciding it may have been better than this endless whiteness, he walked through it. Darkness seemed to devour his sight, but not his body, and he continued to move forward. Even though his legs began to feel weak, and he felt as if he were going to fall, he continued to move on, and was soon greeted with another bright light. As he got closer, it got brighter, and he was forced to close his eyes. As he did so, he felt a warmth, and opened his eyes once more. One by one, he seemed to revisit the scenes of each death, starting with the first. It seemed to be the aftermath of each death, and how the world would have continued with his absence. And, needless to say, none of them led to happy endings. Though as it came to the last one, there was a smile on his face, as if he finally achieved eternal happiness. As he reached towards his lifeless corpse, the scene shattered, and he was standing where he was. But it seemed... different. No longer was his corpse there, and even the world felt different. Curious, he ran back home, to the castle. It seemed to be... completely different. And upon asking who the current King was, he was surprised to hear the name. It was the original King from around one thousand years ago. Which meant... the Groundhog worked! He had reset existence, and freed himself from the binds of the gods! Though little did he realize the effect it would have on him, granting him near immortal life. Though he could no longer age, it was, of course, still possible for him to succumb to wounds. But ignoring this, he took this chance to travel the world, learning Magics from far and wide. For once in his life, he was happy again. And this happiness would last for years to come.
What it Takes to be King One fateful day, Aethereus felt completely strange. It was around what would've the present in his world. And suddenly out of nowhere, his body began to fade in and out of existence, before his vision suddenly went black. And when it came back, he was in Arcus Pluvius Castle, with memories that belonged not to him, but what would have been the him of this world. Their memories seemed to be nearly identical, except this version of him didn't have all those deaths, which he was glad for. He couldn't even imagine what someone else would've been like had they gone through it. But he was curious as to why he was here now, instead of the him of this Existence. Maybe because he was the stronger version, the world chose him, and displaced the original? The thought terrified him, but it seemed the world shifted itself and everyone's memories to fit what he had been through. Which meant he didn't have as much to explain. But once again, it seemed to be a few weeks before his birthday, Existence having de-aged him for this moment, being crowned the new King because of his father's death. The memory once again caused tears to well in his eyes, but he held them back, and accepted the position as High King with pride. He would no longer let anyone else down. With his thoughts steeled, and his fate his own, he swore to be the greatest High King that Veneficium had ever seen. And the whole continent seemed to cheer for him. Life was finally good for him.
The Current World As the world was now, everything seemed to be perfectly peaceful. It's just the way that Aethereus had wanted it. No war anywhere, everyone was making peace. Though he still decided to travel the world whenever given the chance, so that he could get stronger still, and never let anyone down ever again. If there was one thing that he had managed to learn in his "past life", it's that he was never supposed to give up. He had to keep going, so that he could protect everyone, and no one would ever have to cry again. Of course, this would be an impossible task, given that even he wasn't that good. Tears would still be shed here and there, but he would do what he could to keep that from happening. And of course, he still kept up with all of his Kingly duties, and taking care of the siblings he had in this world. It seemed that things were quite different for the him here, and he was happy for it. But he still felt bad in taking his original's place, even if no one would remember him. He had secretly built a makeshift grave in the spot where he cast Groundhog in his past Existence, so that his original's memory would still live on somehow. Though he was gone forever, he would never be forgotten as long as Aethereus himself existed.
To Protect Veneficium It had been seven years since he had been crowned High King of Veneficium, and he was once again twenty-four, He had a feeling he would physically be locked in at this age, considering it was the age he came into this world at. But he didn't really mind that. He decided it would probably be best for him to focus on the protection of Veneficium, his family, and his friends instead of something trivial as that. He could feel evil things were stirring in the world. Things that would need to be stopped at any cost, even if he had to do this alone. But of course, with all the friends he had made over the world, he knew he wouldn't have to. And even so, there were more friends to be made yet. And he knew that in the end, they would all come out victorious, and the world would be safe. But for now, it was time for him to rest, in preparation for what was to come. He would not let this world fall prey to the Gods as it had once before. Not if he had anything to say about it.
Extra: Another Place, Another Time... Existence Forgotten, But Not Lost "So... you're here again today, too." a voice muttered, coming from under the shade of a slowly dying tree. It seemed to be male's, possibly around the age of sixteen. He seemed rather frail, but one look into his eyes would tell an entirely different story. "Yes... I do not know what, but... something draws me to this place. As if... someone is calling for help, from afar." a female replied, standing in front of a grave. It was a simple wooden cross, with what might've once been a readable named etched into it. But age weathered it, making it now unreadable. The female seemed to be around seventeen, and was kneeling in front of this grave. "Well, whoever this grave belonged to... he must not of been very liked, considering no one remembers his name. If he's calling you, maybe it would be best not to heed his call." the boy replied, scratching the back of his head. He seemed not to care as much as the girl did about whoever this figure might've been. Even though he was curious about who was buried here, he wasn't going to dig them up just to conduct DNA experiments. "No... that's not it. He changed his own fate, by traveling across space and time, into a completely new world." the female replied, causing the boy to look at her, obviously confused. The girl laughed at this, before standing up, and looking out across the cliff, and into the horizon, just as he had once done so before. The young boy looked to her, before chuckling quietly. "Changed his fate, huh? Man, if only it were that easy..." the boy replied, looking out across the horizon himself. To change one's fate, and control their own destiny. Who knew, maybe the stories were true? Stories of a man that killed himself to be free of the Gods, and reset the foundations of Reality. "It is, and this man did it. Isn't that right... Aethereus?" the girl asked. "... Aethereus... so that was his name..."
Somewhere, a heartbeat resounds. A young man wakes up from sleep, clutching his heart as if just waking from a nightmare. "From across space and time... they call my name? No... it was just a dream..." the male muttered, before finally falling back to sleep. Though he had erased his own existence and was forgotten, it seemed that to them, he would never be lost in their memories.
◆ Rᴇʟᴀᴛɪᴏɴsʜɪᴘ(s): ❥ Antikinis Stjärnor - Father [Biological] ~ ALIVE : Antikinis was the best dad a boy could ask for, and was originally the High King before Aethereus was. He taught Aethereus most of the things that he knows today, and was an incredible role model. He is also a Dragon Halfling, originally born in Drakontas.
❥ Skara Stjärnor - Mother [Biological] ~ DECEASED : Aethereus's mother, and an overall pretty great woman. Some say she was so nice that she descended from the Heavens, which... isn't too far from the truth. She suddenly appeared one day in Andromeda, and met Antikinis there. She's a Celestious Being, born from the stars themselves. Or at least, this is the story she told Aethereus.
❥ Muramasa, Bloodthirsty Devourer - Weapon/Close Friend ~ ALIVE [can swords die?] : Though he doesn't really show it all that much, Aethereus does care much for the sword Muramasa. Though sometimes Muramasa can get on his nerves and blurt all of his secrets, he still holds him close as a dear friend he wouldn't want to get rid of.

◆ Oᴛʜᴇʀ Iɴғᴏʀᴍᴀᴛɪᴏɴ: Aethereus no longer has the ability to essentially return from the dead after dying by being "reborn" in a different timeline. Nor does he have the "Groundhog" spell anymore. Those were mostly for bio and story purposes than to stick.
The current timeline in his bio would be all of his "successful" attempts after his deaths. For parts where he died multiple times, it'd always be the aftermath of the final death that happened. Hope this clears everything up for those confused by the timeline after reading it all.
