Fallen God Slayer

Son of the Fallen:
Wielder: Ayeseru Suzumoto (Chaotic Rumble)
Description: The unity of two demonic beings, one of them known as The Fallen, ended up producing a child which would one day take over the throne in Hell.  However, his brother, The Silver Haired Demon, Lucifer, became jealous of the young boy and proceeded to completely brainwash the young hell spawn into believing his entity was that of a newborn peasant, and was later given to a set of parents who longed for a second child, but were unsuccessful.  Furious, The Fallen banished Lucifer from Hell, only for him to join the dark side of the mages of Fiore.  However, due to the child who was brainwashed having no willing participation, he did not fall out of good graces with The Fallen, and the result was that The Fallen "blessed" the child with abilities similar, if not, superior to those directly under his wing.  The blood and abilities would only be available to the child once he realized his true heritage, and only then would he gain abilities similar to one of the, if not, most powerful ruler of Hell of all eternity.

Ayeseru slowly began to discover his heritage as time went on, however, after meeting Lucifer during the timeskip, and draining his aura, that drastically sped up the process.  So much so, that, his "true" personality was the dominant one, not the one that was "artificial".  He gained the power to summon four demons of the highest caliber from Hell, which, to some was known as a lineage called "Lucifer's Descendant".  Ayeseru was able to revert himself back into his "artificial" ;personality, however, he now knew where he came from.  The ultimate result is that The Fallen has come back to the surface of Fiore temporarily, and while not happy with what had happened, agreed to assist his son in learning and controlling his true powers.

Ayeseru has come to terms with his demonic side, granting him amazing powers.  It's noteworthy to say that his mother is a demon that originally started off as a human, making him 75% demon, but 25% human, which is why he looks like a human, and actually has to focus to use his demonic powers; he will never truly unleash them all, but can come somewhat close.
Ability:
The lineage has 2 passive abilities and 2 active ones (the active is the same with the exception that one is stronger than the other with some small changes).  Passively, his heritage grants him the ability to sprout wings which appear to be made of his dark shadows which allows him to fly and a 20% increase in evasion.

Then, come the active abilities of the lineage; his demonic blood taking form.  There are two stages to the form which can only be activated seperately - Full Demon Form and Ascending Demon.  Ascending Demon is what Ayeseru calls the stage in between being a human and a demon.  While Ayeseru is in this mode, he is covered in a dark black aura, his eyes glowing more blood red than they usually do, and the image of a demonic creature mimics his movements.  Whenever he has this mode activated, he will gain a 50% increase in strength, speed, and evasion.  Additionally, his spell also gain 50% more effeciency (examples: a spell deals B-Rank damage this will deal B+C-Rank damage.  If a spell has only 2 uses it will be increased to 3, his range will be increased by half of the total range, etc).  Also, his voice will become extremely dark, refusing any assistance he is offered in whatever he is doing as this mode is on, and will even become menacing towards those who are attempting to aid him.  It can last for as long as 7 posts.  Usable once per thread.

Full Demon Form basically works in the same way, but with some key changes.  For starters, Ayeseru becomes the demon which he would've been and looked like should he had been pure blood; he gains claws, a tail, horns, a scary face, all that good stuff.  While he's in this mode, he will gain a 100% increase to his strength, speed, and evasion, making him so incredibly hard to even catch.  All of his spells gain a 100% efficiency increase, too (this time, it doubles what a spell can do.  Doubles numbers, damage, increases, uses, etc).  While Ayeseru is in this mode, he still retains his human intelligence, but hungers for destruction and chaos, which means he attacks everything he sees, with incredible tactics.  Truly, a fearsome opponent.  7 post duration.  Usable once per thread.

Ayeseru can use both forms in the same thread, however, there is a cooldown between the modes.  What this means is that he must wait some time after using one mode to use the other.  That cooldown is 5 posts.

Usage:
His flight and stat increases are passive, and can never be revoked, regardless what something may claim.  Ascending Demon and Full Demon Form are transformations that basically make Ayeseru stronger.  Each transformation lasts 7 posts, and is useable only once per thread.

Description:
Being an identity that plays and walks through the planes of existance, Ayeseru is capable of allowing things to exist, while truly, they should not, while at the same time, not exist.  He does this by removing their shadow, causing the entity not to exist, but because he has gone from existing, to not existing, to existing, to not existing, and existing once more, his touch in partiuclar, should he desire, it, would allow the thing he stripped the shadow of to exist whilst still technically not existing.

Ayeseru uses this ability to send his dark shadows to his weak spots, and allows them to merge.  Afterwards, he strips them of their shadow, which will cause the effect just stated.  Because his weak spots technically don't exist, he has gotten rid of them, however, he needs those to function properly with his body, and therefore, they still exist, which means the end result is that he has strengthened his body.  This gives him increased stability, and he has some resistances to movement and physical impairment and manipulation that an opponents spell may have.  This includes things that would reduce his speed and knock him back, or knock him somewhere in general.  The strength of a slow, knockback (or knocked anywhere), etc, is passively reduced by 50%.  The reason behind why has already been written.
Strengths:
- Passive effect.  Ayeseru doesn't have to do anything at all to have it active.
- Extremely useful in melee fights; he retains a lot of his freedom with this effect.
- Grants him general stability; while not used to fight negative effects, he will in general feel more balanced and will move better than most.
Weaknesses:
- Effects aren't reduced entirely, only by 50%.
- Furthermore, this effect can only ever be active on Ayeseru, for he cannot pass it to anyone else.
- Does not actually reduce the damage of those said spells, only very specific effects.
- Having mentioned that, the ability is very situational, because of the few effects it's capable of resisting; not every spell has a knockback or slow, or such.

Description:
This is another one of Ayeseru's most basic spells.  With this ability, Ayeseru is able to enhance his shadow mode, to make it more potent.  It works the same way as his regular shadow transformation mode, except, whilst this spell is active, Ayeseru becomes invulnerable to physical damage; magical damage is still fair play.  As always, he still cannot attack during this mode, and must revert to normal in order to do so.
Strengths:
- Allows Ayeseru to become immune to physical damage whilst in his shadow mode.
- Further increases evasive opportunities, seeing as he can pass through people without having to worry about getting caught (literally) or the likes.
- Allows Ayeseru to be more creative with his combinations, which means he can be more unorthodox with his attacks and movements.
Weaknesses:
- Magical damage still affects Ayeseru regularly.
- Ayeseru still must revert to becoming a normal human in order to use any spells, or even attack.
- Ayeseru takes an additional 5% extra damage from light spells if he is hit by them in this mode; a shadow is meant to evade light, so it only makes sense, bringing up the total damage Ayeseru receives from Light spells to 15% extra damage.
- Every time this spell ends, Ayeseru feels slightly off balance, because he never got used to switching from being immaterial to a human constantly in such a short period of time; very careful observers can spot this and potentially use it against him.

Description:
Ayeseru uses this ability by creating a shadow around his hand that cannot be visible, though may be detected by any mage if taken a moment to notice.  Ayeseru can use that shadow to then extend his own, attaching it with the targets shadow, so long as they're within the 15 meter distance.  If Ayeseru succeeds, what then happens is that both the target he attached his shadow to and his own shadow fuse together, which is visible.  The point of this fusion is quite simple - their “entities”, so to speak, temporarily fuse together.  In other words, on a very technical scale, they literally become the same person, though with different magic and the likes and everything.  They cannot access each others pool of information or such, though can communicate through mind.  More importantly, whatever happens to one person, happens to the other.  In other words, should Ayeseru be hit by something, the exact same effects will be dealt to the one he is fused with; if the one Ayeseru is fused with casts an enhancing spell on him or herself, the same thing will happen to Ayeseru.  This is simply for tactical causes, however, the one thing that doesn’t apply to both mages is that whichever mage casted a spell that consumes magical energy, only from them will the energy be consumed from, not both; this only applies to casting spells, it’s still possible to shave off magical energy from one mage and have it happen to the other.  Also, if one dies, the same -will NOT- happen to the other.  Period.
Strengths:
- This gives Ayeseru great opportunities to be extremely smart and clever with his battle, allowing him to tip the scale of the battle in his favour.
- This spell works by having the same thing done to both mages, with the exceptions put in the description.  Ayeseru can benefit heavily from any spells or things that happen to the person he is fused with.
- If the one Ayeseru is fused with happens to be an ally, he will be able to freely converse with them, giving them ways to talk strategy without having the enemy know a thing of what they’ll do.
Weaknesses:
- Whatever happens to one, happens to the other.  This means that while Ayeseru can heavily benefit from this ability, so can the one he is fused with (Weakness for enemies).
- While this is a spell that’s good for Ayeseru to be tactical, the exact same thing for his opponent, so in the face of one that is more clever than himself, he could be in trouble by using this spell.
- This ability is designed to either face an enemy one on one, or to fight alongside with an ally.  If there is more than one opponent, and Ayeseru uses this ability, it would be possible for them to hurt the one Ayeseru is fused with, -purposefully-, so Ayeseru too may be injured, which can put him in a bad situation.
- Once this spell is activated, it STAYS activated till the end of the duration, or one of the participants is knocked out/killed.

Description:
Ayeseru starts the spell by mumbling a few random words, and suddenly, his arm is enveloped in shadows.  In order for him to make use of it, he can either fire the shadow, in which case, it has a range of 5 meters, or he can touch his foe with the enveloped arm; either way, he only has one attempt per cast to attempt to connect.  If he is able to connect, what happens then is that the one affected by this spell receives a debuff called “Fusion”.  What it does is temporarily fuse the affected target’s life with its own shadow, which means that the shadow can now be hit and will be treated as though the actual opponent has been hit, however, this strictly applies to damage only; things such as status effects that a spell may carry and was used to hit the shadow won’t be given to the original target.
Strengths:
- Allows Ayeseru for a bigger hit box; twice the hit box, to be exact, since now he may aim for two targets that will produce the same result, and not just one; the shadow can also be extended by light, potentially, giving a larger hit box.
- This spell can be surprising to a foe, since, other than the shadow enveloping his arm or the foe encountering the ability previously, the odds are near none that they’ll suspect their shadow is now a hit box, which means that the odds are very high that Ayeseru will get at least one attack in.
- Ayeseru has the choice to either fire a small beam, or touch his opponent to inflict the status effect, which gives him better options and odds on actually hitting the spell, depending on the situation.
Weaknesses:
- The best way to counter this ability is to either move to an area where it’s dark, which hides even the shadow, or to simply reduce the hit box by aligning the light so it’s directly above you, minimizing the hit box, but not completely hiding it.
- The spell itself carries no damage whatsoever.  So, if Ayeseru decided he wanted to punch an opponent while this spell was active, and actually managed to do so, the only harm in that scenario will come from the physical punch, as this spell does not damage whatsoever.  This also includes for when it’s used from a slight distance.
- This spell can only be truly used if Ayeseru is able to strike his opponent, as he only has one attempt to do so per cast, which means that if Ayeseru fails to touch his opponent with the shadow, the spell instantly goes into full cooldown.
- While this spell can be used from a small distance, it is, exactly that; it’s a small distance.  For the most part, Ayeseru has to get relatively close to his opponent in order to be given a shot in properly using the spell.

Description:
This spell allows Ayeseru to create a small wall or platform of shadows for him to step on or push off whenever he desires.  The platform/wall can be any size Ayeseru would like it to be, so long as it doesn’t exceed 5 feet, both in length and width.  However, there are limits.  The first limitation is that this ability is not intended for Ayeseru to constantly stand on; the platform can only remain for a maximum of 2 seconds before it disappears.  Next, Ayeseru cannot form the platform directly below his feet; it needs to be at least 1 foot away from him, and while that’s not far at all, that 1 foot can make the entire difference.  Lastly, this can only be used three times per post.
Strengths:
- Since this spell is passive, it’s everlasting, which also means it has no cooldown.
- If Ayeseru is in the air, and flying somewhere, or just wants to generally redirect himself, he may use this spell to do so.
- The platform has a decent size, so it’ll be rare for Ayeseru to ever miss it.
Weaknesses:
- The platform doesn’t last long, only lasting for 2 seconds.  This means that Ayeseru has to have some sort of plan in maneuvering from the platform if he decides to use this ability.
- The platform doesn’t directly form beneath his feet, being 1 foot below it.
- This ability can only be used three times per post, so Ayeseru has to make them count.
- The platform can’t actually block anything or the likes; its single purpose is to allow Ayeseru to redirect himself and the likes, anything that comes his way and desires to harm him will simply pass through the platform and get Ayeseru

Description:
Ayeseru summons a transparent shade, forming a shell around him for the next 2 posts.  Whenever he gets struck by a spell that is equal or lower rank, Ayeseru is able to block it off entirely, up till it receives the equivalent of B-Rank damage.  However, there is another trick that Ayeseru is able to do; by completely sacrificing his shell to mitigate 50% of the damage, he is also able to teleport instantly to the opponents shadow; Ayeseru is able to use the second ability to most ranked spell, however, the amount of damage Ayeseru mitigates decreases the higher the rank of the spell.  At C-Rank, it’s 50%, B-Rank is 25%, A-Rank is 5%, and S-Rank and higher is nothing.
Strengths:
- The shell on its own is quite durable.
- The range is fairly good, being 35 meters.
- When not used to teleport, the shell is capable of withstanding damage up to B-Rank, or the equivalent to.
Weaknesses:
- Has no direct offensive capabilities
- Despite having good range, teleporation is only possible whenever Ayeseru is struck with what is considered a spell of any kind.  In other words, the teleportation cannot be used whenever Ayeseru is struck with a normal attack.
- Ayeseru is only able to teleport to where the assailant’s shadow is, meaning that a smart opponent can position themselves to where their shadow would put Ayeseru in a disadvantage, should he desire to teleport to it.
- The spell goes into cooldown instantly if Ayeseru uses the teleportation ability.
- Ayeseru doesn't block off damage entirely, only reduces it, should he desire to use it for teleportation.

Description:
Ayeseru begins the spell by surrounding himself in an aura of his dark shadows.  He quickly takes a running pose, and then dashes forward.  Ayeseru can dash up to 35 meters in front of him, and do so at a speed of shadows.  The spell deals standard C-Rank damage, however, can be used to pierce through barriers that are C-Rank or lower.  If Ayeseru does so, the damage is reduced to D-Rank.  Additionally, if Ayeseru uses this spell after activating the teleportation aspect of Fallen God's Darkness Wrap, and uses it from the point blank range he has obtained, the opponent will be stunned for the next post.  Ayeseru activates the aura before teleportation, should he desire to use this spell, and therefore doesn't need to waste time doing so when he gets to where he wants to be.
Strengths:
- Allows Ayeseru to strike his opponent with incredible speed and force.
- Can pierce through barriers that are C-Rank or lower.
- Can potentially stun the target.
Weaknesses:
- In order to stun the target, Ayeseru has to be a point blank range, and since it's virtually impossible to do so without giving them a hint that Ayeseru is going to do something big by activating his aura as he nears them, he'll generally have to rely on spells to do so.
- Ayeseru still travels at the speed of shadows.  If he hits anything that's not a spell, or a person, he will be reduced to 10% health, and be knocked out for 5 posts.  If he is already at 10% health and manages to hit something that's not any of the specified targets, the knock out is extended to 10 posts.
- Ayeseru travels in a straight line.
- The damage Ayeseru can deal reduces if he hits a barrier that's C-Rank or below.
- Whenever Ayeseru uses this for ranged, it takes him a moment to activate his aura and take his stance; it doesn't take long, but it'd be enough to signal to the opponent that he's planning something, therefore giving them an opportunity to potentially retaliate.

Description:
A more complex spell for being one of Ayeseru's "weaker" spells.  Ayeseru's shadow, after a small chant, grows into a circle of a 5 meter radius.  Meaning that 5 meters around Ayeseru, the ground will be covered in his shadow, that, initially, appears to function like any normal shadow would.  If another shadow comes into contact with the now expanded shadow of Ayeseru, Sapphiron, the Shadow Dragon that resides within him, will attack that shadow.  Any blows dealt to the shadow will be converted into damage to the owner of the shadow.  This spell is not shy of affecting objects, too.

Sapphiron can inflict piercing damage with his claws and fangs.  The shadow moves along with Ayeseru, treating him as the center.  The damage dealt is average C-Rank damage, however, it is possible for Sapphiron to attack multiple times per post if the opponent remains in the shadow for too long.
Strengths:
- Counters melee combat for when Ayeseru does not desire to initiate it.
- Can potentially be used offensively for when Ayeseru moves within the range of a shadow.
- Attacks the shadow, rather than the person.  Also affects objects.
Weaknesses:
- Also targets any allies that may be in the vicinity of the spell.
- Ranged attacks, seeing as this spell doesn't have a wide, or long circle.
- Since a shadow is an the result of light blocking an object, that means shadow evades light, therefore, any mage with some sort of light aura can walk freely through the circle, but cannot de-spell it.  The same applies to darkness mages who have some sort of darkness aura around them, seeing as they blend with the shadow.
- Ayeseru can only gain constant damage if the opponent remains within his spread out shadow, and not if they stand in it for a relatively short amount of time, and get out.  Additionally, the Shadow Dragon doesn't actually grab a hold of the shadow; it's only for damage purposes.

Description:
Ayeseru begins the spell by removing his shadow, making him have no shadow.  Normally, with no shadow, it would be literally impossible to live; anything without a shadow shouldn't technically exist, so in order to preserve reality, the universe must erase what shouldn't be there.  There is, however, a place, or rather, lack of, where everything that shouldn't exist goes to - The Void.  It should've never existed in the universe, but in fact, did come to be, so in order to preserve another reality, a power much greater than the universe created The Void.  The Void, as explained previously, is a place where things that never should've actually existed, go to, and since Ayeseru shouldn't technically exist during this time, he too, is supposed to go there.

There is a reason that Ayeseru is able to prevent himself from going there, is because he went through the process from being someone who should've existed, then not supposed to exist, then going back to existing properly once more.  Because of this, Ayeseru is able to abandon the rules of reality and remove his shadow, even if temporarily.  Ayeseru goes into a mode that's called "Rift Walk".  He gains a light aura which makes his body look entirely black with a white outline, which indicates he is under the effects of The Void whilst still being in the "real" world.  The effects of this spell are as follows:

Ayeseru is able to go through physical objects freely, like a ghost.  This doesn't include to mages or any magical entities.  Additionally, he feels weightless, and can thus jump higher and run faster; he can jump up to an additional height of 25 meters and add an additional 40 kmph to his normal running speed; finally it makes him look REALLY badass.  Those are only some of the effects of The Void.
Strengths:
- Grants Ayeseru the ability to pass through physical objects and non-magical entities.
- Grants Ayeseru increased jumping and running capability.
- Makes him a lot more evasive, seeing as combined with his physical additions and being able to pass through virtually anything, it provides with potential stealth opportunities
Weaknesses:
- VERY obvious that Ayeseru has done something; his aura gives him away.
- Ayeseru cannot pass through magical entities.
- The aura around Ayeseru doesn't count as a shadow, therefore, he is not able to evade light spells with this.
- While this spell is activated, Ayeseru becomes confused.  The way he becomes confused, however, is that he is unsure whether or not he's in The Void.  That wouldn't be so much of a problem, except that whilst he's in The Void, he can accomplish more.  Again, this wouldn't be a problem, except that he can overestimate himself, and thus making him prone to make more daring moves, which can backfire.

Description:
The purpose of this spell, is really quite simple - quick steps.  Ayeseru uses the dark shadows to temporarily allow himself to move at the speed of shadows, which is virtually the same as the speed of light.  To anyone viewing him, it would appear as though Ayeseru stepped into a small portal of dark shadows, and  then reappeared somewhere else.  The spell is extremely effective in open areas, however, near impossible to use where it is cluttered.  The distance Ayeseru travels per dash is 5 meters.
Strengths:
- Ayeseru is able to move at blinding speeds that a normal eye cannot track.
- If Ayeseru is unable to dodge a spell, he is able to use this one to get away.
- Ayeseru is able to use Dark Step three times per use, meaning that if used correctly, he can maneuver around obstacles.
Weaknesses:
- If Ayeseru slams into something while he is dashing, then he will be knocked out for the next 5 posts, and have his health drop to 5%.  If he is already at 5% health or lower, the KO’d status extends to 10 posts.  This doesn't include to spells, dealing normal damage, or people, or objects created with spells.
- Ayeseru can only travel in a straight line.
- Cluttered or extremely small areas, due to the odds being higher he will hit something; he cannot stop once he has given himself direction, which makes that a problem.
- The spell has three bursts, and 5 meters per burst, however, this is by no means a getaway spell.  This spell, for the most part, is used to maneuver around the field, which means it's almost useless when it comes to escaping.

Description:
Ayeseru's improved version of Dark Step.  Using this spell, Ayeseru is able to instantly transport himself to any shadow that is visible to him at the speed of shadows.  Unlike Shadow Step, he does become an intangible shadow, therefore allowing him to pass through any objects he might otherwise run into, though spells are still fair game.  Ayeseru is able to move to any shadow of his liking 4 times per post.  Since Ayeseru is traveling so quickly, to a normal human eye, it looks as though he has stepped into a portal of shadows, and suddenly appeared at another shadow.
Strengths:
- A fantastic maneuverability spell; allows Ayeseru to go to any shadow he is able to see.
- Ayeseru is able to move at the speed of shadows, which is virtually the speed of light
- Ayeseru, unlike Dark Step, will not be harmed by running into physical objects.
Weaknesses:
- It is possible for Ayeseru to still be damaged mid-dash, with the use of spells.  Those will deal standard damage, however.
- Since Ayeseru travels at the speed of shadows and also transforms into a shadow during that time, because it is not his normal state and human body, his mind is not quick enough to follow with the speed.  In other words, Ayeseru has to calculate beforehand where he wants to go; he cannot decide this whilst he is dashing, only before, or after.
- Ayeseru's limit is whichever shadow he sees.  In other words, one of the most effective ways to render this spell useless is to either hinder Ayeseru's eyesight, or somehow hide the shadow.  The best method to counter this spell is to surround the shadow with darkness, because they blend very well together.
- Ayeseru travels in a straight line; he cannot twist and curve in the middle of the spell.

Description:
This spell has two effects.  By removing his shadow, Ayeseru falls under the effects of The Void, though these differ from the spell prior to this one.  Ayeseru's body becomes almost entirely black, with a white outline tracing him.  The first effect is that Ayeseru can transport himself anywhere within a space of 40 meters; he does this by forcefully placing his shadow in the location he wants to be in, and is granted full vision of any possible areas for him to go to.  It doesn't matter where it is; he can go wherever he wants to.  The second effect of this spell is that he is able to transport any magical barrier to The Void, replacing Ayeseru.  The spell transported can equal up to an A-Rank defensive barrier.  In order to transport barriers, however, Ayeseru must expend 25% more energy than he otherwise would.  If the spell is A-Rank, he must expend an additional 25%, bringing the total required to 50%.  
Strengths:
- A multi-functioning spell, both effects being quite good.
- Ayeseru has a good range, regarding where he can transport himself at.
- Ayeseru is able to remove defensive barriers up to A-Rank
Weaknesses:
- In order to remove barriers, Ayeseru must expend 25% more energy than he otherwise would.  If the barrier is A-Rank, he must expend an additional 25%, bringing the total to an extra 50% magical energy to use.
- Ayeseru can only transport himself, to anywhere, once.  He needs to make it count, or else he can potentially put himself in a bad situation, making the transportation aspect of this spell rather situational.
- A range is always a range.  Ayeseru can transport himself for a good distance with this spell, but sometimes, it may not be enough.  It can potentially act as a getaway spell, but there is definitely no guarantee.
- No matter which effect Ayeseru uses, he will feel slightly disoriented for a second or two.  This will cause him to be confused; he won't know whether or not he's in The Void.  During these few moments, he can potentially make a daring move, because he is naturally more powerful in The Void, and if he believes to be within it, well...  He can do stupid things.

Description:
A somewhat complex spell of Ayeseru's, but one of his most efficient, and famous ones.  The spell functions by Ayeseru creating a transparent shade around himself, not visible to the naked eye.  The shade, at first, appears to do nothing, however, when Ayeseru makes a striking motion, shadows will appear in the form of the desired weapon Ayeseru would use for the said strike.  For example, if Ayeseru were to dash towards an opponent and extend his arm out, the ideal weapon for piercing in this case would be that of a spear, and as a result, the shadows would transform into a spear.  The shadows themselves can go out for 10 feet at best, which makes this spell only useful for melee.  Each strike with any of the shadows will deal standard B-Rank damage.
Strengths:
- Each strike will have a different form, allowing Ayeseru incredible versatility with his attacks.
- Could be used as a tactical advantage, seeing as some weapons are better against certain types, meaning Ayeseru could form the shadows into a certain weapon that his adversary's weapon may be weak against.
- Strikes with the shadows are able to pass through darkness and light spells, however, they must be B-Rank or below.
Weaknesses:
- Ayeseru's shifting shadows can only go out for as long as 10 feet.  In other words, this is strictly melee, which means that anything range will have an advantage over Ayeseru when he uses this spell.
- Ayeseru is able to only go through darkness and light spells that are B-Rank or below; anything higher will instantly set the spell on cooldown.
- Ayeseru is by no means a weapons master.  The only weapons he knows how to use efficiently are a longsword, and a pole arm.  This means that, if he uses any weapons which are unfamiliar to him, he will struggle to use them properly.
- Each shifting shadow takes up a limb of sorts, which renders that limb entirely useless for anything else whilst it's shifted into something else.
- The spell literally does NOTHING on its own.  Ayeseru has to make some form of strike in order for the spell to actually serve its purpose.

Ayeseru begins the spell by allowing his fingers to be enveloped in dark shadows.  Ayeseru can use those both for range, and melee, but the spell is significantly more effective in close range.  If Ayeseru uses this for range, he has a range of 40 meters; he can make this motion downwards with his arms and hands after he raises them up, which makes him look like he was scratching the air.  If he does this, wherever the enemy may be, two slashes, in the shape of a claw, come down on the opponent harshly, dealing B-Rank damage.  It works the same for close range, except that the opponent doesn't have as much time to react, and if Ayeseru actually hits the opponent with his bare hands, they'll be dealt the spell damage in addition to his base strength.  If Ayeseru can land the hit, the opponent is inflicted with a condition named "Emptiness".  The condition on its own does nothing, but can be manipulated with some of Ayeseru's other spells.
Strengths:
- Allows Ayeseru to attack through both melee and long range.
- Applies a condition that can be manipulated through other spells.
- Damage is standard, dealing no less than B-Rank damage, yet, at the same time, no more.
Weaknesses:
- The condition that is applied on the target does absolutely nothing on its own.  Ayeseru has to use other spells that are actually applicable to the condition for it to have any significance.
- Whilst the spell can be used for close and long range, it is a lot less effective when used for range.  The target can see Ayeseru preparing the motion by him raising his arms and his fingers being enveloped in shadows, and therefore, they're given a few brief moments to react.
- The spell, when used for range, is tough to anticipate, because the slashes appear at the area Ayeseru desired to target whenever he slashes downwards.  Despite this, if the opponent fails to dodge the spell, they can still just as easily block it.
- In order to maximize the potential of this spell, Ayeseru has to get in close range of the opponent.

Description:
A powerful spell of Ayeseru's.  With this spell, he is capable of materializing the shadow of any opponent he chooses, giving it a mass and making it stick to the ground it currently lays in.  Ayeseru can does this by sending out a wave of his dark shadows, which can cover a distance of 25 meters in all directions, and covers this ground in a second and a half.  The very first magical entity whom Ayeseru's considers a foe, will be affected by this spell.  The shadow then materializes, and the foe cannot move from the place they were in.  This spell affects higher ranked mages, but will naturally be less effective the higher the rank fo the mage.  It works as follows:

B-Rank mages and below will be completely immobilized, when it comes to moving their legs.  A-Rank mages will be slowed by a factor of 50%.  S-Rank mages and above won't be affected.

If the opponent has the "Emptiness" condition on them, the effects double, and S-Rank mages will be slowed by 10%.
Strengths:
- A great crowd control spell; the opponent cannot move from where they stand.
- Most mages are affected by this spell.
- Relatively hard to dodge, seeing as the spell has a good range and covers it quite quickly.
- The hinderance can potentially be doubled.
Weaknesses:
- Ayeseru glows in his dark shadows a second before he actually emits them.  This is a big sign, showing the opponent Ayeseru is going to do something.
- The higher the rank of the mage, the less effective this spell will be.
- All this spell does is either take away the movement in the legs, or hinder it.  The target can still block, and cast spells, and if they can still move, they can potentially dodge.
- It only affects the first target Ayeseru deems a foe, meaning this is mostly for one on one use.  Allies can potentially throw themselves at the spell to purposely have the effects granted on to them, rather than a target Ayeseru was originally aiming for.
- The opponent needs to have a status effect that only a single spell can grant, and even then, he is not guaranteed to land the said spell.

Description:
This spell is the equivalent to Ayeseru's "Shadow Drive" whilst he was the Shadow Dragon Slayer, however, slightly improved.  The spell behaves like Ayeseru's Void Drive, however, nowhere near to the same extent.  Whilst he activates this spell, his body becomes covered in dark shadows, similar to the scales he used to have in his Dragon Force whilst he was a Dragon Slayer.  Anything that's worn on his torso is ripped apart from the immense power flowing inside and around him, and his long hair flies wildly, too.  What the effect of the spell actually is, though, is not to make him look sexy (but it sure does happen).  Whilst Ayeseru has this spell on, his strength and speed are increased by 50%, whilst his evasion rate is increased, as well.  Furthermore, Ayeseru has The Fallen Shadow : Limit Outbreak as a passive ability through the duration of the spell.  Upon activation, Ayeseru has all of his current cooldowns reduced by 1 post.
Strengths:
- Increases Ayeseru's physical capabilities.
- Has The Fallen Shadow : Limit Outbreak as a passive effect.
- Upon activation, reduces all of Ayeseru's current cooldowns by 1 post.
Weaknesses:
- If a spell goes on cooldown after this spell was activated, and this spell is still functioning, it will not receive the cooldown reduction.
- Ayeseru cannot activate Void Drive whilst using this spell, because his body registers this spell as his actual Void Drive, despite both abilities being on completely different scales of power, and because his body will literally not allow him to activate both at the same time in fear of destroying itself, he cannot.
- Ayeseru still feels the negative effects of The Fallen Shadow : Limit Outbreak, if he uses it whilst this spell is activated.
- Because it works similarly to his Void Drive, there are drawbacks to using this spell.  Once the spell ends, Ayeseru feels 10% slower and 5% weaker (physical attacks only).  This isn't actually the case, but because he feels this way, he is unable to put all of his effort into moving and hitting as hard as he can.  This effect will last for 2 posts.

Description:
With a snap of his fingers, a pool of dark shadows spreads from Ayeseru, covering 50 meters in a circular area around him, however, it is very faint in colour, making it tough to see.  That shadow will follow him.  The function of this pool of dark shadows is to create clones of Ayeseru, which look, feel, appear, and smell exactly like him.  Ayeseru can create up to 10 of those clones.  The clones themselves will take every single trait Ayeseru has; there is literally no way of telling apart Ayeseru from his clones if you intend on only looking at them; they can even cast spells, which won't take magical energy from Ayeseru.  However, there are some very clear limitations to these clones, the first being that the clones cannot actually deal damage with their spells or hits; if an opponent is hit by a spell of a clone, they will feel some pain, but no damage will actually be dealt, which means that they're still in the same condition they were prior to the spell hitting them.

The clones also cannot cast any spells that are above A-Rank, and still must follow the same standard duration/cooldown rules.  The clones can be struck down by magic that is B-Rank or higher, however, they must not be light or darkness spells (A-Rank light and darkness spells will be able to strike them down).  Phyiscal blows, regardless of how much force is behind them, pass through them, which give them up straight away.  Clones that have been destroyed will be reformed after 2 posts.
Strengths:
- A fantastic ability to confuse the enemy and hide Ayeseru.
- Despite the spells of the clones dealing no actual damage, because it looks so real, the mind tricks the one struck into believing its real, meaning they feel the damage.
- The clones take literally every single characteristic that Ayeseru has; this includes his dodging potential, ways of speaking, behaving, etc.
Weaknesses:
- AoE spells that somehow manage to hit every single clone can render this spell almost entirely useless, the only other use to hide Ayeseru in the shadows.
- Spells of the clones deal no actual damage, meaning the opponent won't be hindered physically in any way.
- The clones cannot leave the giant dark shadow circle.
- It takes a relatively long time for the clones to reform themselves after they have been destroyed.

Description:
Ayeseru takes a deep breath, he prepares his arm and lowers his stance.  As soon as he does this, he sends dark shadows into his own shadow, causing it to cancel out his own shadow, removing it.  As soon as Ayeseru does this, he gains an extremely dark black aura surrounding him, his outlines being traced in white; he has fallen under the effects of The Void.  This takes him less than a second.  The moment Ayeseru is within this new mode of his, he dashes up to 55 meters instantly, as though it was nothing, the purpose being to close in on the enemy.  As soon as Ayeseru reaches his destination, he performs a horizontal slash around him with his extended hand, a wave of dark shadows coming from it.  If Ayeseru's swing is successful, it will deal B-Rank damage, and his dark shadows will mess around with the target's ability to perform spells, thus effectively putting the next spell unable to be casted, and the spell after that to be reduced in power by 30%.  This can only apply to A-Rank spells and below.  If the opponent doesn't cast a spell that is A-Rank or lower, the effect will remain available till the opponent does so.

If the opponent has the "Emptiness" status effect on them, Ayeseru can manipulate that and make the effects of this spell even more devastating.  Instead of a single spell being unable to be casted, it becomes two. Again, this only applies to A-Rank and lower spells.
Strengths:
- A fantastic ability to shut down some of the abilities an opponent may have.
- Deals some damage, and is a fantastic gap closer, too.
- Can potentially be more effective, if a condition is applied.
Weaknesses:
- In order for the spell to be more effective, another spell needs to be used, and hit the opponent.
- Ayeseru has only one opportunity to use this ability per cast, so he must make it count.
- Despite Ayeseru performing his actions in less than a second, his body radiates some dark black energy, a second before he actually does them.  This can give the opponent some time to evade, or prepare for the oncoming assault.
- The actual damage dealt is extremely low, for a spell of this caliber.  It's not known for its damage.

Description:
Ayeseru allows his hands to radiate powerful, dark shadows.  When he brings his hands together, a large scythe is molded into reality.  The scythe measures to be 6 feet long at the shaft, 3 feet long at the curved blade, and is entirely weightless for Ayeseru; anyone who even attempts to grab ahold of this scythe will feel their hands being corrupted, and will recieved A-Rank damage.  Any hits dealt by Ayeseru with the use of this dark shadow weapon will deal standard A-Rank damage.  Once per cast, he will mumble "No more running..." to himself, and if the slash is successful, it will deal B-Rank damage, but more importantly, it instantly positions himself behind the target, due to the fact a tiny fraction of his dark shadows manages to find its way behind the opponent, and he is able to switch places with it.  If he misses, he can use it again.

If the opponent has the "Emptiness" condition applied on them, Ayeseru is able to consume that and use it to get behind the opponent by striking them with the scythe, which will still deal normal damage.
Strengths:
- A great spell for Ayeseru to constantly dish out damage.
- The scythe can potentially be used for defensive purposes.
- Has a gap closer which can surprise the foe.
- The gap closer can potentially be used twice.
Weaknesses:
- The scythe is big, and long, but that still doesn't change the fact that it's for close range purposes.  Ayeseru has to get up relatively close to make use of this spell.
- While this spell can block weapon attacks, it cannot block any darkness or light spells that are A-Rank or higher; it passes through the weapon, and has the potential to hit Ayeseru.
- When it comes to blocking actual spells, the scythe can block up to 2 A-Rank spells, or a single S-Rank spell.  If he does so, the damage is only halved, and not completely mitigated.
- Ayeseru actually speaks when he uses his second technique, and while he does mumble it, making it unlikely to hear him, it is possible to still do so.  What this means is that opponents who have come across this spell before, can somewhat anticipate what he's going to do next.  Anyone who somehow manages to hear the mumble, also, may potentially be on guard, but it's unlikely.
- Ayeseru has only one use of his second technique whenever this spell is active, making it situational.  He needs to evaluate his options, to see when he can use it properly.
- The opponent needs to have a status effect that only a single spell can grant, and even then, he is not guaranteed to land the said spell.

Ayeseru begins the spell by allowing his hand to pulse a dark shadow.  In the span of a second, he releases it, sending it everywhere in the shape of a ring, covering a distance of 55 meters around where Ayeseru initially stands and will follow him.  The ring itself, is very faint compared to how his spells normally look, making it tough to see.  This spell grants Ayeseru the ability to know where every single shadow is in that area, and he may teleport to any of them instantly, though he can only teleport to the same shadow once every post, however, there is no actual limit as to how many shadows he can go to.  Ayeseru can only do this in his ring.

There is only a single type of shadow that Ayeseru cannot go to - his opponent.
Strengths:
- The distance covered is fairly big, being 55 meters.
- Ayeseru knows where every shadow is, and thus things such as darkness cannot hide it.
- There is no limit as to how many shadows Ayeseru can go to.
Weaknesses:
- Ayeseru can only go to the same shadow only once every post.
- Despite being tough to spot, the ring itself is actually visible.  This spell doesn't bind any opponents or targets to stay within the area, and as a result, if they know where the ring is, they can get out of it.  Actually spotting the ring, is a challenge.
- It is possible to render this ability fairly useless.  Light spells that are A-Rank or higher can temporarily get rid of a shadow.  AoE spells, to be specific, are quite troublesome, because if they can cover the entire range of the ring, all of the shadows within them will disappear, because shadow must evade light, and only reform in the next post.
- The effects of this spell are only useful within the area of the ring.
- Ayeseru cannot go to a shadow that belongs to any opponent(s) he is facing.

Description:
Ayeseru allows a great amount of his energy to flow into his shadow, allowing it to become "alive".  Whenever Ayeseru does this, his shadow gains dark red, glowing eyes, and a sadistic smile of the same colour, his teeth quite evident through the smile.  A shadow mimics what their hosts does, and the way this spell functions is exactly the same; whenever Ayeseru casts a spell, his shadow will replicate it, and cast it himself.  A key note, however, is that the shadow can aim in other directions, so if Ayeseru misses his own spell, the shadow can potentially land the hit.  Once per post, Ayeseru's shadow can choose to dash up to 15 meters away; it can curve, and change its direction, and go everywhere at free will, all in an instant.  This only works because the host is bound to its shadow, thus forcing Ayeseru to move with the shadow.
Strengths:
- Ayeseru's shadow replicates the same spell Ayeseru casts, meaning it can double the damage dealt.
- The shadow, can once per post, cover 15 meters in literally any direction in an instant.  It can twist and turn during the movement.
- The shadow doesn't have to aim the spell in the same direction Ayeseru does, but it may.  This gives Ayeseru better odds on striking his target.
Weaknesses:
- The shadow can only mimic spells and movements, but it cannot deal physical damage on its own.
- The shadow can only mimic offensive spells.  
- It's very obvious that Ayeseru is using a spell of some sort; his shadow is altered slightly, giving the opponent a "heads up, something is different".
- The shadow cannot mimic any spells above S-Rank.  Additionally, it cannot cast any of Ayeseru's spells that have their name begin with "Dark Nebula".
- If both spells are successful in hitting the target, the spell that the shadow mimics only deals 75% of the damage the spell would have caused.
- Spells that are equal rank, or one rank lower that is light/holy can cancel out the spell that the shadow mimics.

Ayeseru begins the spell by inhaling, his mouth like a vaccume.  A large, dark black symbol appears in front of his mouth.  Shadows from every location appear to be littering the area as his cheeks and chest expand greatly, almost appearing as though they're about to explode.  Once it reaches its climax, Ayeseru will thrust his upper half forward, opening his mouth and releasing a beam of very concentrated dark shadows, the bellow of a Fallen God filling the sound everywhere.  The beam can travel as far as 250 meters, covering this distance in a second, and will deal S-Rank damage.  Since the beam is so concentrated, it has immense piercing potential, and will be able to pierce through any S-Rank barrier, dealing twice the normal damage to one.  Ayeseru can hold the beam for up to 5 seconds, and move it around by moving his head around, like a laser.  Ayeseru can gather the shadows around him as material for his blast, thus effectively reducing the cost of this spell by 50%.  The beam itself is not very wide, compared to distance and other roars/bellows, being only 4 meters.
Strengths:
- A very powerful spell.  It's able to pierce through S-Rank barriers and still retain its S-Rank damage.
- The spell has an enormous distance covered, being 250 meters.  Ayeseru can also hold the spell for up to 5 seconds, and move it like a laser.
- The cost of the spell can be halved, if there are sufficient shadows in the area for the action.  The amount of shadows required to do this, however, need to be equivalent to a bus sized amount (15%).
Weaknesses:
- It takes Ayeseru 2 seconds to charge the spell up, and an additional second for the beam to reach its maximum distance.  This gives the opponent 3 seconds in total, assuming they're in maximum range, to retaliate.  They have 2 seconds no matter what, however.
- Ayeseru remains stationary if he decides to use this spell like a laser.  This means, if he holds it for up to 5 seconds, he will be completely immoble for that time, being unable to even defend himself unless he breaks the spell.
- Ayeseru can only pierce through S-Rank barriers.  Not only that, but he can only pierce through one S-Rank barrier while retaining the damage behind the spell.  It would be possible for him to pierce through a second S-Rank barrier, but at the cost of the spell instantly ending upon impact.
- The spell is pretty easy to see coming while Ayeseru charges it, as his chest and cheeks inflate to inhumane amounts.
- In order to halve the magical cost of this spell, there needs to be sufficient shadows, and Ayeseru needs to keep them in his mouth till he releases the beam.  This means, that if Ayeseru has collected the shadows and someone punches his gut, for example, he may potentially flinch, which will cause him to open his mouth and lose the shadows, being destroyed instantly upon leaving his mouth, making them unavailable for further use.

Ayeseru begins the spell with a snap of his fingers, covering a 110 meter circle around himself in dark shadows.  In the sky, thousands of spears made out of dark shadows will form within a second, and then rain down in the location of the circle at the speed of shadows, covering every part of it.  Each spear deals A-Rank damage, however, it can only damage and have the effects on the same mage once per cast.  If a spear successfully lands on a target, it will instantly shatter, and spread within the body of the target.  The dark shadows will attack the senses of the struck target - sight, hearing, smelling, taste, and touch will all be attacked.  For the next 5 posts, the affected targets will be unable to use those senses.
Strengths:
- A very big area of effect spell.
- Allows Ayeseru to deal damage whilst still applying negative effects on the foe.
- The effects applied are devastating, seeing as the opponent cannot use their senses for the duration of the spell
Weaknesses:
- The spell is weaker than what an S-Rank spell normally is.
- The senses can be healed, which will therefore mitigate the effect this spell has.  The senses need to be directly healed, however, and it'll be tough to understand this, because you don't actually feel pain coming from the senses (touch is a lone exception).  Healing will only allow one to use the senses 50% as effectively as normal, until the duration ends.
- Can also affect any allies within the area.
- Anything that's beyond the AoE of the spell won't be affected, which is great for allies, not so great for enemies.

Ayeseru begins the spell by removing his shadow, allowing his body to become enveloped in the darkest of black, a white colour tracing his outlines; he is under the effects of The Void.  This spell allows Ayeseru to enhance one of his three "Reality" spells that is not Beauty of Reality.  It will increase their capabilities, effectiveness, and overall power.  It will only consume magical energy from this spell, however, the cooldown is applied to both this spell and the Reality spell agumented (original cooldowns to each respective spell).  The upgrades are as follows:

Departing from Reality - Allows Ayeseru to go through things freely, like a ghost.  Once per post, he is capable of going freely through any spell that ranks up to S-Rank, with the exception of H-Rank, and take no damage or effects from it.  He is capable of only doing so to two spells, however.  He is capable of jumping an additional 100 meters with his base jumping, and is capable of running 125 kmph extra to his normal running speed.

Confusion of Reality - Allows Ayeseru to transport himself up to 5 times anywhere within the 110 meter circle.  He is granted full vision of the area, and can literally go anywhere.  He can spread the uses within the 5 posts, should he desire, but doesn't regain any.  Instead of using that ability, he can remove any barrierl that ranks up to S-Rank, free of charge.  If he doesn't remove an S-Rank spell, he is capable of removing barriers that would equal up to an S-Rank spell.

Corruption of Reality - Allows Ayeseru to dash up to 90 meters as though it was nothing instantly, to close in the gap between him and the target.  Once he reaches his destination, he will perform a horizontal slash with his arm that is covered in dark shadows, a wave of dark shadows coming from it.  The hit will deal A-Rank damage, and his dark shadows will target the hit foes ability to cast spells, effectively putting his next S-Rank unable to be casted, or the equivalent to, and the spell after that will be 50% weaker.  If the opponent has the "Emptiness" status effect on them, and Ayeseru uses this spell on them, 2 S-Rank spells will be unable to be casted, or the equivalent to.
Strengths:
- Empowers some of Ayeseru's spells to a great amount.
- Has the same set of strengths as the original spell, with a few numbers increased.
- Will only take the magical energy required to cast the spell from this spell.
Weaknesses:
- Has the same set of weaknesses as the original spells; each weakness varies depending on the spell.
- Puts both this spell and the original Reality spell on cooldown; varies depending on which Reality spell was used.
- Ayeseru can only use one of the possible spells to power up.
- Like all of his Reality spells, Ayeseru is very obvious in a different state, because his dark black body gives him away.

Description:
Something that most shadow users should be aware of is the proficiency the element has with evasion and blending in with things - it evades light while blending in with darkness.  However, another aspect that can be taken from the shadows is "tracing".  Ayeseru has learned over the course of his life and training that he can trace the shadow to the original target; to who or what the shadow belongs to.  That was something he learned quite quickly, however, taking it a further, step, Ayeseru has learned how to trace the shadows of said object or things to the original cause.  To put it in simple terms, Ayeseru is capable of tracking the shadows of spells, illusions, and whatnot, back to whoever caused the said effect.  He can do the same with buildings, for example; he can trace back the shadow of a certain building to its creator and find him that way.

That is only one use this spell has, but, what happens exactly when you get a brilliant mind with knowledge of this ability?  Ayeseru doing stupid things.  With this ability, if he ever gets struck with a spell, the spell will pass right through him, as though nothing had hit him at all.  He will then merge with his shadow, and then trace back the spell to the caster, and he will, on the way, form his shadow into the spell that passed through him, therefore firing it back at the opponent perfectly.  They will take full effects and damage from the spell.  Afterwards, whether or not Ayeseru was successful is irrelevant, because wherever it was that his shadow hit is where he will reform himself.
Strengths:
- Passively grants Ayeseru the ability to trace things back to the original cause of whatever.
- A fantastic defensive ability, because Ayeseru doesn't have to acivate it for it to actually work.
- Has the potential to strike the opponent with their own spell, also placing Ayeseru where the shadow in the form of the spell last was.
Weaknesses:
- The second ability only works against spells.  Therefore, weapons will be able to go through this defense cleanly.  The ability will, however, trigger if the weapon uses an ability.
- As stated before, Ayeseru doesn't actually do anything to activate this ability, which means that if he's hit when he doesn't want to be, and this ability is up, the same effects will happen, which can potentially put him in a dangerous spot.
- Ineffective against light or darkness spells that are A-Rank or higher; the shadows evade the light while blending in too well with the darkness.
- The shadow in the form of the spell is not guaranteed to hit, which, can be both good and bad, mostly bad because he loses the ability to deal damage + position himself right before, or beside the enemy.
- The spell is only useful for actual offensive spells, which means they need to have some sort of offensive aspect to it in order for this ability to actually trigger.
- Ayeseru has the option where the shadow is fired towards, however, it cannot be farther away than 5 meters of the original body.  Therefore, Ayeseru must place himself extremely close to the opponent.
- Despite the spell going through him, it's not actually blocked.  What this means that the spell still remains active, and can harm whatever is behind him, which can include allies.
- Will not trigger in the face of H-Rank spells.

Description:
Ayeseru starts by extending his hand backwards, as though he was getting ready to punch something, and allows it to become enveloped in a massive amount of dark shadows, all concentrated to look as though it's as big as his fist.  Then, he will, in fact, punch forward, and when he does, the shadows that he trapped in his fist will unleash themselves forward, a torrent of dark shadows being fired from it.  The shadows can go as far as 110 meters and is 25 meters wide, and can cover the distance in a second.  The spell deals standard S-Rank damage.  Ayeseru can also use this at point blank range, but if he does so, he'll deal an additonal A-Rank damage to the opponent, in exchange, he sacrifices the range this spell has, as the point-blank target absorbs it.
Strengths:
- Makes him really cool.  Ayeseru can use this ability for range, which was primarily how this spell is used.
- The spell deals a very good amount of damage, being a standard S-Rank.  The spell also has a slightly lower cooldown than other S-Rank spells, because it is a signature.
- Ayeseru can potentially deal even more damage if he gets up and personal with his target.
Weaknesses:
- In order to deal more damage, Ayeseru needs to close in the gap with the opponent.
- The spell is very simplistic.  All it's like a basic attack; nothing more, nothing less.  It doesn't actually do anything that can be considered grand.
- A range is still a range; anyone beyond it will be safe from harm.  Additionally, Ayeseru actually takes a moment to charge up the spell, which can be seen.  It's possible to see Ayeseru about to do something, and therefore, react.
- It's possible for this spell to clash against other spells that are of equal rank, and therefore, cancel each other.  This only applies to offensive and defensive spells.  This won't apply to light and darkness S-Rank spells, which means they pass through each other.
- It can also hit allies within the range of the spell.
