All Jaina Dalton wanted was to study and be the best Sorceress in the land. Burying herself in books, sailing to far lands to explore ancient libraries and temples, and eventually, becoming an Archmage who would closely advise her father, mother, and brother in the proper management of Magic. But with the presumed deaths of her father and brother in a freak storm, she is now the heir to the throne of her small coastal country and she has mixed feelings about that, especially as the existence of her God Slayer Magic means that she would have her people demand that she use it as a weapon when again, she just wanted to study, drink coffee and eat a sweet pastry before readying herself for a dinner of eel stew.

Then again, being royalty has its perks, and being a member of Fenix Tear, the neighboring Kingdom's most powerful Independent Guild, brought opportunities to use those perks. With her comrades at her side, she would make it as the Lady Admiral of Snaerverold or find out if her father and brother were really dead and bring them back!

_Fairytale

Jaina was born in the Kingdom of Snaerverold, a land whose people relied on the sea and magic to survive whenever the farmlands were devastated by stronger nations. Thus, she was fascinated by the study of Magic from an early age, bugging the Court Wizard to teach her all the time. Eventually, she showed talent and was able to receive formal training in Magic, eventually becoming known as one of the most promising young Magicians in the land, always seeking out new lore to decipher, learn, and master.

One day, she received a mysterious clay tablet that was inscribed with an ancient script, one that was eventually revealed to contain the secrets of Memory God Slayer Magic, which allowed her near-perfect memory and the ability to extract and rewrite others' memories. Of course, she was not interested in the latter except when it allowed her to learn more magic and cram it into her head. And so her life passed uneventfully until one day, her father and brother went sailing with a squadron of Snaerverold's best warships to intercept some Pirates.

They instead ran into a storm of abnormal, potentially cursed, power, which destroyed most of the flotilla and caused the disappearance of the father and brother... Who were also the King/Lord Admiral of Snaerverold and his heir, the Lord Admiral-in-Waiting.

She now had to cease her magical studies and learn administration, economics, and warfare instead. Her mother, now the Lady Admiral of Snaerverold until she grew up, was busy rebuilding the naval strength of her nation to keep away invaders. The worst part of all was that the strongest neighboring nation, Pergrande, just got invaded by Devils, who in turn would invade her nation eventually. Oh, and she was invited by Pergrande's most powerful Independent Guild, Fenix Tear, to join their ranks, with a couple of promises; one, she would find out whether the storm that killed her father and brother was natural and if it wasn't, who cast it, and two, if her father and brother were actually dead.

Wait, if they weren't dead, can she return the heirship to the throne?

Spells [+]

Memory Manipulation Beam - Jaina emits a golden, but black-tinted beam from her hands that can erase, enhance, alter, or extract the memories of those it hits. Other PCs are resistant or even immune to this due to heroic willpower.

Memory Manipulation Vortex - Jaina creates a black-tinted vortex of golden light from her hands and arms that can erase, enhance, alter, or extract the memories of those it hits. Other PCs are resistant or even immune to this due to heroic willpower.

"Hate Reaction" - Causes a monster or otherwise nonsapient beast to hate her, pursuing her even to the point where it ignores everyone else trying to attack it.

"Calm Reaction" - Can tame a monster or otherwise nonsapient beast, this would still take effort because many of them are berserkers/predeators.

Memory Archive - Can use copies of spells she has memorized either mundanely or through her Memory Manipulation Magic.

Identical to Rufus' Spells in Canon Fairy Tail, but tinted black.

Psychometry - By touching an inanimate object that has been used by a person, or a location occupied by a person or people, for a long time, Jaina can see the powerful memories of those who have used the object or been in that location, and in some cases, can turn the memories into holograms that other people can see.

_Identity

A mage educated from the Court of Merlin, a former Magic Knight, and rumored to be a future prospect for the Roundtable Knights. Ifrit had it all. Extreme talent, notable progeny, even a seat next to the king himself. It seemed Ifrit's destiny was dead-set, but the funny thing about fate is that it can take turns no one would expect. Seven years ago, he resigned from his position as a Magic Knight, forever killing any chance of becoming a Roundtable Knight. Instead, he and a young Azuria helped form a new guild. One independent from any outside influence or organization. One that would surely cement itself into legend. This would end up being the birth of Fenix Tear, with Azuria as its first (and only) Guildmaster.

_Fairytale

Ifrit was born in near Bargrovyzaria to an otherwise un-notable family. In truth, he doesn't have many memories of his mother and father. At a very young age, when his profound affinity for magic was found out, his parents sent him into Bargrovyzaria proper to study in the Court of Merlin. He never cared much for the teachings themselves. To him, the fundamentals of magic were as natural to him as breathing. He quickly excelled through the ranks and years, on track to graduating early.

Ifrit needed something to challenge him. He showed great aptitude in all the basic magics taught to him, but they bored him greatly. To Ifrit, he wanted a challenge. A spellcraft to learn that no others would dare touch. A magic of this caliber could only be a Lost Magic. Knowing this Ifrit soon joined the White Creed. AN organization of Whiteout Mages with an affinity to studying Lost Magic (alongside setting magical regulations_ So, throughout the nights, he would go out into the city. Visiting decrepid libraries, following whims and stories of ancient texts and forbidden information, and often setting out for days on end to follow tales and rumors.

These sleepless nights and dangerous journeys paid off in the end. By the time his final year at the White Creed came around, he discovered, practiced, and become proficient in a lost art, time magic. Keeping much of the stories of where he found the information about time magic to himself, his fame only grew wider. After his departure from the Creed, he was immediately slotted as a member of the Magic Knights, a group of mages entrusted by the king to uphold his law and order. He was 13 at the time.

Four years passed, and Ifrit's power only grew. He knew much knowledge of his time magic was, well, lost to time. So discovering new techniques and practicing the magic art was difficult. But when he turned seventeen he was at a master's level. This achievment, alongside the rumors of him possibly being scouted to become a Roundtable Knight, Ifrit was extremely content with his life and future. A few months after his seventeenth birthday, though, fate would decide to change course.

He found himself bored. dissatisfied with his work. Ifrit was a man of determination and drive, constantly wanting to challenge himself to learn new things and achieve greater heights. But here he was, at the precipice of greatness. And when he looked back on his journey, he found it... easy. He didn't like that one bit. Where was the challenge that was promised? The prestige and laurels were lost on him, he felt dissatisfied with it all. Not knowing where to go next, he sought out the king for counsel. When he told the king his woes and worries, the king couldn't help but chuckle at Ifrit's plight. He told Ifrit that "one of the greatest challenges one can face in life is helping lead others to their greatness."

Ifrit sat on these words for some time. And a few weeks later, he asked the king to resign from his position. If leading people and guiding them was truly one of the most difficult things a man can do, than he will do it. He will master it, become one of the greatest leaders of this generation. Only when he does that, he can truly feel satisfied about his journey. The king accepted his request, and entrusted Ifrit to create a knew Mages Guild. Ifrit knew nothing about creating such an organization, but he knew where to find help. From his connections in the White Creed, he heard of a young girl named Azuria. A child prodigy and well renowned mage. After some time talking with her, they both agreed to set out and make this guild.

There were many trials and tribulations with creating an organization at the level Fenix Tear would be. He had to learn to work with others, tolerate their immaturity (this one came especially handy when working with Azuria), and more importantly he had to learn to set his ego aside. It was very tough for Ifrit, but he persevered. He kept improving day in and day out. Than, the fateful day came. The Fenix Tear Guild could officially open her halls to the wider world. When it came time to decide who would be the guild master, Ifrit insisted that Azuria take the position. He truly believed that he still had much to learn, and that Azuria was already molded to bear the title. Though he still holds a position of authority within the guild, it's largely in reverence of him being a co-founder (among other things).

Esoteric Art: Time Magic, a lost magic that allows for temporal manipulation and cohersion. Ifrit believes that the magic art could possibly extend to paracausal manipulation, but this is only theory. Ifrit also have access to Mystic Eyes Magic, something he learned while in the White Creed

Spells [+]

ESOTERIC ART: TIME MAGIC

Time/Accelerate - Ifrit forcibly increases the flow of time around him. This allows him to do practically everything faster. Pushing the flow of time could theoretically increase his speed, but Ifrit never pushed it. There is still a lot he doesn't know about this specific spell, so he's committed to keeping the flow within a "safe" level. Of course, this means that those mages with greater cognitive, perceptive, and/or speed skills can keep up with him easily.

Time/Decelerate - Ifrit causes the ebb of time around him to slow all living being except him. He doesn't know why the time slow effect only works on living beings, tests have all come back inconclusive.

NOTE: Time/Accelerate and Time/Decelerate cannot be used at the same time. Ifrit tried it once, he almost tore himself in two.

Epoch - Forcing the flow of time to shunt directly to his palms and consolidating a large amount of mana, Ifrit can create (in essence) a physical paradox. After enough temporal energy is stored, he can release it in an all engulphing blast. Usually, to use this spell safely, Ifrit must ward himself in ethereal vestiges that come in the form of golden clocks. This is an end-all-be-all move, if scorched earth is the only option.

Centennial - a much smaller and localized version of Epoch. Used in general combat and, while still destructive, doesn't have anywhere near the potency of its more dangerous counterpart

Aeon, Era, Origin of Creation - Ifrit's greatest spell. Massive, golden dials and clockfaces fill the sky around him. The pull of time can be felt physically. A chime rings out 66 times. And on the 67th chime, all of time stands still for a minute. Ifrit is still free to move around and cast spells. Aeon, Era, Origin of Creation is an extremely powerful spell, and one Ifrit has never cast before. He (theoretically) know how to do it AND CAN cast it, but the risks are severe. Altering the flow of time at such a massive scale is prone to cause problems, possibly irreparable. Outside of Azuria, he's never revealed the truth about this spell to anyone.

MYSTIC EYES MAGIC ART

Temporal Glimpse - This allows Ifrit to peer into the literal temporal flow. His eyes change to a golden hue with the aesthetics of a vintage grandfather clockface etching itself onto his eyes (something something Kurumi. you're welcome, Vergil)

_Identity
Definitely not a Masochist

At first glance, if one were to see Ayuna, they would see a Caring and Compassionate person, who tries their best to cheer you up in your darkest moments.

Those that know her however, know an additional part of her. She believes that Suffering and Hardship are the true cornerstone of growth. Pain and Adversity aren’t only obstacles to overcome, but the true crucible from which one can better themselves.

On one hand, she will offer compassion,comfort you when you are at your lowest, While with the other she pushes you to face your troubles head-on.

This is most true for herself as well, she doesn’t shy away from challenges and hardship, as she sees them as a possibility for growth.

Has a bad habit of biting her cheek or tongue when she's stressed or anxious.
She also has a quite literal blood thirst, which does not help to beat the Vampire allegations.

_Fairytale
The first thing she remembers was a dark, damp ceiling, shortly followed by a robed man giving her a Tome and a Command. Learn or Die.

And so she Learned. The tome told her of the power of her own blood, how it could be used, manipulated,multiplicated.
She learned how to transume other liquids, then how to crystallize her blood into Crystals.

She Learned the taste of blood, how it’s salty,metallic feeling centered and focused her.

She Learned how to fight with the Blood. How to minimize her own blood loss. How to kill.

She learned about her existence, how it was doomed to end on their whims.

She learned about pain, and how much it takes to break a person. And how far it can bring you shall you overcome it.

She learned about defiance, how to reject her fate and create her own.

She learned that the robed men were all weak, far weaker in their Alchemy.Unlike herself, who had to endure, they had stagnated in comfort.

And so, as she emerged from the darkness she was held for the first time, she saw light. Not the light of the sun, as it couldn’t compare to the sight of paradise she witnessed. Azuria stood in her full glory, wreaths of fire shrouding her as if a goddess of fire descended into earth. She asked to follow her on the spot.

Life in Fenix Tear was...different. No death-lines, no impromptu "learning lessons", a nice bed instead of a cold slab. The difference between living standard was grating. If she were to be honest, she hated it at the time. It felt like they were coddling her, as if she couldn't take it.

As if in spite, she always tried to get or join the most difficult requests, both as a way for her to grow ever foward, and as a way to "pay" for the way they treated her.

It took almost a year of brooding before she truly understood that this was the standard, and not some privilege heaped on her. From there, her mood changed drastically, becoming far more cordial and friendly with the guild-members.

That was four years ago. Now Ayura is a full member of Fenix Tear, Helping where she can and trying to props it’s members to new heights.

Alchimia Sanguinis - Blood-Make
An alchemy that is as Narrow as it is Versatile. The Alchemists use their own blood as the Catalyst for their transmutations in exchange for a boost in power. Can become dangerous to the user if used for long enough without proper precautions.
_{Equivalent Exchange}
Practioners of Alchimia Sanguinis become more in tune with the blood flowing within their veins, and it's desire to flow freely. Practioners attain masochistic tendencies, a slight taste for blood, and an utter disregard for their own wounds. Furthermore, they have a slight urge to spill their own blood, which become worse and worse the longer the practioner does not do so.

Spells [+]

Alchimia Sanguinis: Proliferate
A Drop of Ayuna’s blood, spilled in any liquid can quickly transmute it into more of her blood. Unfortunately, this spell quickly loses efficiency the greater the difference between the liquid and the blood, so she can only convert so much at a time.

Alchimia Sanguinis: Crystallize

Ayuna shapes and solidifies her blood in any way she desires, creating useful constructs for her to utilize. While not as sturdy as other such creations, blood constructs have the upside of both being expendable and being the focus from which Ayuna cast her Alchemy. This makes her prefer to go with quantity over quality, and then utilizing the scattered blood to renew the offensive.

Alchimia Sanguinis: Porta Cruor

Using the inherent connection to her own blood, Ayuya is able to briefly connect two points which have a great concentration of her blood together. Creating a portal evaporates the blood used to create it on both sides, and to use this spell for long distances, a full-on Sigil and Ritual connecting the two points is needed.

Alchimia Sanguinis: Expugnatio ichori

Ayuna Greatest Spell. She collects all her spilled and transmuted blood, and then launches it into the sky, before it descends like rain. Everything touched by the red rain is in the range of Ayuna’s Alchimia Sanguinis. Scales with the amount of blood used to cast it, and it gets a boost if it’s raining or storming, as Ayuna can then transmute the water raining down.

Talent [+]

_{Medical Bodily Alchemy}
Learned when she was trying to broaden her horizon after seeing Zeire works. She can perform a battery of somewhat lenghty rituals that can heal most minor wounds and Stabilize worse cases that are beyond her skill.
These rituals are something that take most of Ayuna's Attention, so as long as she's performing them she can't do much else.

_Blood-Dance
Aka, NOT!waterbending
An Hobby she has picked up in her time at Fenix Tear. An union of her Alchemical and Dancing Skills, she lets her instict move her and her blood flow freely. As she moves, so does the blood follow, cloaking her, creating imageries or just moving gracefully or forcefully.
She prefer to perform her Blood-dance under the rain, as that makes her able to transmute more and more blood for her performance.

Equipment [+]

_{The Sacrificial Dagger}
An old ornate knife, scavenged from the corpse of her captors. Enchanted for sharpness so that her self inflicted wounds are both easier to make and far less prone to tearings.
_{Jug of Holding}
A Simple, unassuming jug with a strap for easier carrying. Has been enchanted to be able to hold far more liquid than it's size would suggest.

_Identity

A young man who will always tell you what's on his mind without sugarcoating it, he will make it clear if someone had messed up or brought him unnecessary increase in his workload and throw them a lecture. But afterwards he would list what he thinks they did right and try to reduce the amount of trouble they would get into as much as he reasonably can. Sometimes he would find himself in the center of a trouble either during his search for a book or because he himself failed to keep his mouth shut, faults that he would rather easily admit.

Aside from allegiance to the Fenix Tear, he is also bound to his deal with his god. Not really much of a problem considering that he is a bibliophile, although he could do away with his fellow God-Slayers not dragging him to their ‘wars’. His god gave him one task, he doesn’t need to tie himself with another. His devotion to said task however caused him to continuously find himself happily accepting books as an alternative form of payment for his missions much to the relief of the downtrodden towns he encountered. How much of that was powered by altruism, his contract to the goddess or his clever way to put a good name for his guild was deliberately left unsaid.

_Fairytale

The Gutenberg is not an ordinary last name, rather it is one that traces back to a chain of master and apprentice who dedicated themselves in finding the lost library of Alexandria, legends say that it was burned in a great fire that consumed the city it was built on. The Gutenberg continued to march on regardless. Lucas is the latest apprentice of this line of Gutenberg, initially an orphan studying magic at Merlin Magic Academy before meeting Gutenberg before him and the man who would become his master, Johanne Gutenberg in his brief teaching stint. The two would then leave the academy together and go to various expeditions in search of the said library.

It is in one of those expeditions Johanne Gutenberg will meet its demise courtesy of a Tartarus Dark Mage who would also be soon killed in the crossfire of an ensuing battle. After burying the body in its resting place, he would be then contacted by a woman who tells him the truth of Alexandria. It wasn't a mere library, that long ago it was the seat of her power and that as the last surviving Gutenberg it is his mission to continue what his predecessors started. Seeing that he has nothing to lose, he agreed to continue the search.

He then spent years traveling around the land, meeting people, seeing places and improving his magic in various aspects. During the Civil War of Pendragon, he moved around the place providing aid to help in repairing what was destroyed by the war. It is during this period that he will be reunited with a former classmate of his, Azuria and it will eventually lead to him becoming one of the founders of Fenix Tear.

Jericho's a loyal servant to his goddesses member of Fenix Tear. He's been a member since its humble stages & admires the strength of the two sisters guiding their guild to victory. He's very protective of them despite their ability to protect themselves. This protective nature extends to everyone within the guild as they're the closest thing to family that he has left. He loves to fight and seeks dangerous missions for the sake of thrill, but that's only what he wants everyone to believe. He considers these dangerous missions as training as well as clues to finding the Devil that killed his parents.

When he's bored his curious nature kicks in and it tends to lead straight to chaos for the guild and their town before he gets reigned in by the resident "parents" of Fenix Tear.

In battle his true nature shows. Despite not being an official knight he steps into battle as if he is one, protecting the women and the weak and striking fast and hard at his enemy. If no one else is in danger he lets loose a little more and takes the time to enjoy the battle before him making sure that he gets the best out of it.


Jericho's born to a Dragon Slayer named Idina. Idina's renowned among the Dragon population that one night a group of them foolishly waged war on her. There were five in all, but with her powers being stronger at night she laid waste to them one by one. She lost a piece of herself with each kill, losing her humanity and becoming more and more like the dragons she was slaying. After the fourth dragon laid lifeless at her feet she felt something trigger inside her. She roared savagely before undergoing dragonification, turning into a full blown Dusk Dragon of the Night. Her opponent was known as a Dragon King. A King that brought four of his followers to die with him. The battle was massive, but it ended with her ripping out the dragon's throat and claiming supremacy. Word of this quickly spread and Idina was officially crowned the Dragon King of Night. She didn't care about any of this. She just wanted to be alone. She wanted to be human again.

She found a large forest of creatures with a cave big enough for her to live in. She began protecting the creatures of the forest despite a lot of them being large and capable of taking care of themselves, but she knew magic poachers loved the thrill of facing wild beasts. It was here that she met her first friend since becoming a dragon. A green exceed named Nirvana. They helped each other. She protected him and he helped her recall bits of her humanity, but it wasn't enough. That was until a young Magic Knight approached her cave having heard stories of a monstrous dragon from poachers. He didn't believe that the dragon was a monster since the poachers were still alive, but he was curious about the presence. Nirvana was immediately defensive, but Idina assured him that it was fine. She sensed no malice in this man. She felt something that she hadn't felt from a human in a long time. The two began to talk and he decided to stay in the forest longer and learn more about her, her story, and this wonderful forest. He brought her humanity back and she loved him. When she was able to transform into her human form again the two consummated their love and had Jericho. Together with Nirvana they raised the young boy and taught him in the way of Dragon Slaying Arts. The family was happy. Nothing could destroy this happiness. Or so they thought.

A Devil inhabiting a human host sensed the presence of this strange family and went to end them before they'd gain the power to kill them. Idina and her husband stayed behind to fight the Devil while Nirvana flew away with Jericho, but before they could get away he was hit in the back with an attack that destroyed one of his wings, and part of his tail and ears. But the two were able to make it to Pergrande before his last remaining wing gave out causing them to crash in front of the doors of Fenix Tear. Both Jericho and Nirvana were unconscious until they were healed by a young mage's magic. Jericho thought she was an Angel and was immediately smitten with her. She challenged him to a fight and after getting his ass handed to him he was determined to protect and serve Azuria and her sister with his life. The trio grew up together forming a new family of crazy powerful orphans.

Expressing the celestial splendor of the cosmos upon the nightfall's starry skies, reverberating visual sceneries of the starry night with gravitonic might. As the Dark Prince of the Night, Jericho commands authority and power over the night and celestial bodies pulling the darkness and gravity of the cosmos towards him, this magic is attributed to the black mass of Heavenly Body Magic. Jericho may only consume regular Darkness Magic and those that're connected to nightly themed magic such as the Star & Moon, his magic is only half of its power in contrast during the night.

Spells [+]

Nightfall Drive: Jericho enhances himself with Nightfall Dragon Slayer Magic giving him the ability to center his abilities in the blade and the ability to travel through shadows, but the longer the distance the more it drains his mana, at night, where Jericho is at his peak, Nightfall Drive becomes a darkened version of Meteor

Dusk Dragon's Roar: Jericho either uses his own mana or consumes any darkness and celestial magic before charging a powerful magic towards his target with overwhelmingly crushing force.

Dusk Dragon's Gravity Fist: Jericho harnesses the magic in his fist increasing the mass of his punch right before he reaches contact with his target, hitting them with a crushing blow.

Dusk Dragon's Brilliant Burst: Conjuring his Nightfall Dragon Slayer Magic in his left hand and his Darkness Magic in his right Jericho charges at his enemy crushing them between his fists. The attack makes them feel like they were hit by a moon.

Dusk Dragon's Rough Silk: Jericho conjures multitudes of very thin beams of shadows which pierce and slice the target, heavily damaging them.

Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Altairis
Jericho crosses his arms above his head drawing all shadows in the area towards him to create a dense ball of gravity to send at his target with crushing graviton forces. It creates a void of darkness that sucks in any magic spell or inanimate object in the area. It does not consume humans or creatures, but will pull them towards the hole. Altairis is a blackhole that lasts for a minute max unless stopped. AoE. Highest Range being One Block. > It only affects those he wants to so his nakama and innocent civilians are typically safe. S and above can also resist the forces.

Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Orion

This spell starts off similar to that of the Heavenly Arts Magic ability Grand Chariot. Instead of summoning celestial light Jericho summons a celestial darkbeams of sight, bringing down a eight rough darkbeams down on his opponent.

My Talents [+]

Master Martial Artist and Swordsman: Jericho's been trained by his Dragon mother, Magic Knight, father, and Speed Demon Exceed Nirvana to be a lethal threat without his magic and to enhance his magic with his combat abilities, because magic wasn't always a guaranteed path to victory. After his parents' untimely deaths he continued his training with Nirvana and other mages in Fenix Tear.

Quick Dress: After routinely being the one to put on Gwen's clothes when she strips Jericho gained the ability to dress himself and others so fast that you'd think he was using Re-Equip magic.

Detective/Master Snoop: Growing up with two "sisters" around his age Jericho became a master snoop. Looking for secret hidden places and finding clues that others might overlook. This extended to his missions when he began to use detective skills to track down Devils. He's also learned how to read people through their expressions, words, and tone.

Imagination/Creative: Jericho is a very creative person. This is primarily shown with the kinds of attacks he does in battle or the kind of spells he forms on his own that a Nightfall Dragon Slayer wouldn't normally be able to do or think of.

Animal Whisperer: Due to being raised in a forest with many creatures, regular and magical he has a deep connection to the animals of the world and they can typically sense it through him.

Vacuum: THAT BOY CAN EAT. IF YOU'RE EVER IN A FOOD EATING CONTEST HE'S YOUR GUY.

Hopeless Romantic/Sex God: Jericho's a lover boy in his heart of hearts, but had no luck in romance with the Rutines siblings. He eventually got over his childish crushes and became a man. He helps single or widowed women feel loved again.

_Identity
Reuel is known in only name by many of the guild, the mysterious S rank who is always away on a mission of some kind. Once in a blue moon he does appear, and by the accounts of those who have had brief encounters with him, he's a polite and well-spoken man, dressed surprisingly well for someone who is out so often. Others think he is hiding something, an enigmatic air about him, though that is often expected as he is hardly around. Most unexpectedly, he doesn't appear particularly powerful for an S rank and as he might say, he is the weakest of the guild's S rank mages.

He portrays an air of affability and refinement, often trying to sort things out through words. It often appears hard to discern what he is thinking, though it seems he has the guild's best interests in mind, often referring to what might be best for the guild. To some he appears to be some sort of secret treasurer, to others he could be a mediator, and yet others think he could be an intel agent for the guild. Whatever it may be, one thing is sure and it's that he is a member of the guild.

_Fairytale

The past of Reuel Ashcroft is shrouded in mystery, though a few things are known. He is a member of the Ashcroft family as it's true and sole heir, a family that had long since been believed to be wiped out almost a decade ago until he was found as a child. He's known as a skilled artisan, having made and designed magical equipment for Pergrande's military as well as commission pieces for members of the guild, or those who pay. It's believed that these skills are the sole reason he has earned the rank of S. Finally, that he was one of the oldest members of Fenix Tear, the details of which are unclear, some say he was a magic knight, others say he was a member of a dark guild prior, and some theorize he was a former Roundtable Knight which was the most outlandish, however the only thing that was certain was that he was among the founding members.

Currently he holds an office in the same city as the guild hall which also works as a workshop. The few guild members who wind up stopping by quickly learn he's a magical artisan of sorts, and others might have the impression he disappears for long stretches of time to find information for the guild, or materials for some of his crafts. Virtually no one has seen him fight, so it's not unusual for guild members to be surprised to learn of his rank. For the time being he seems to return to the guild every so often to keep members apprised of situations.

A magic made to eat magic, able to remove the effects of magic of certain levels of strength. The magic can be channeled through objects, giving the property to anything being wielded, but can also create pitch black objects which hold the property in greater strength. It can also be done on touch, and can create a black veil that is impervious to most magic. It has the main flaw of only removing magic and magical effects, meaning anything physical that isn't tied to magic will remain and can still threaten the user.

The origin of these blades is unknown, in fact they're pretty unassuming, but the truth is they're made from devils that were aspects of the night, and so are able to conceal themselves and the user in darkness.

• Shadow Step: A movement spell where the user cloaks themselves as they evade. The main advantage of this is that it can cover the windup for anything they might do as they come out of the cloak.
• Violent Vindication: Executed off of any attack where a black blade seems to appear for but a moment. Very much like a sword swing, though with the added effect that it can break through magical shields with ease.
• Soul Eater: This is initiated from physical contact, but basically on touch he will drain the target's magical energy directly proportionate to how long he can maintain that contact. This can actually be done through constriction with the chained forms of Nyx and Erebus, albeit it's a weaker effect than if he was to touch them directly.
• Night's Snare: Using Nyx and Erebus turning them into a mess of chains that immediately binds multiple layers onto whoever it strikes. This is a close range move, but quite a powerful bind. Particularly since it seems to restrict magical flow.

??? Spells

• Evil Heaven, Rending Blade [Jaten, Zanjin 邪天 斬刃]: A counter move where an inky black afterimage is left behind, before appearing in a blind spot and delivering a powerful skyward kick, backed by the same black energy. High physical damage and due to the black energy, and will pierce pretty much most or all magical defenses.
• Evil Heaven, Reaper's Judgement [Jaten, Shijinhan 邪天 死神判]: Taking Nyx and Erebus together to form the base as a black inky scythe is formed to unleash a single wide sweeping slash.
