ANCALAGON
Ethereal(+)
Species: Thunderbird
Type: Combat Pet
Description: Thunderbirds are the lesser well-known mythological creatures that reside in Fiore, as well as in all of Earthland as a whole. They are legendary beasts of the native Fiorian tribes typically located on the coast of Cloud Sea, though as deep as into Forgotten Deserts. These native Fiorian tribes believe the creatures to be ones of mass destruction, who control the bringing of storms, lightning, and thunder. While not exactly well-known like the dragons of Fiore, they are creatures not to be forgotten about in their time within the country. Being supernatural creatures of power and strength, they are often seen as worthy creatures who are most commonly associated with tribes’ chieftains. It’s said that if a man has a vision of a Thunderbird during a solitary fast, it is said that he will become the chieftain of the tribe. Revered by these native Fiorian tribes, the Thunderbird has become one of the more sacred creatures to the natives of Fiore.
They are typically seen as regular birds of prey, but they come in a variety of colors and designs depending on the tribe a person is introduced to. In some cases, Thunderbirds can range from hues of brown to hues of white or black, with the darkest shade being the rarest out of them. From the tribe which its owner hailed from, Ancalagon is the utmost rare color of its breed known to the natives of the tribe. So much so, that its color is revered by the people and it is said that if a person is able to tame such a beast, they are a god above all. But Ancalagon is not just a bird of black feathers, rather it is also a bird that has a light hue of bluish-white enveloping its entirety. This signifies the lightning that it is able to wield and control, lightning that is in its purest and most natural form known to mankind. The strangeness of this bird and how its owner was able to tame it has led the people of the tribe to not only appreciate them, but worship them as well.
Its size rivals that of the dragons of Fiore, though is no bigger than the King of Dragons and is no more powerful than it as well. Powerful, sharp horns curl out from the sides of its head into a similar shape that is typically seen upon a ram, though slightly less curled. Opening its jaws will reveal that the beast has razor-sharp teeth within its massive beak, meant to break down bones and tear apart meat. Strange, red eyes are capable of blinking and casting out lightning bolts and wings are capable of beating and causing the sound of thunder. Though tamed, Ancalagon is often ridden bareback by its owner, but when more than one person come along, a saddle can be seen upon its back. Ancalagon’s massive size allows for it to easily transfer a total of five people from one place to the next without being burdened by weight. It also has an oddly intellectual connection with its owner, as though they are able to speak to each other through their minds.

Rank: A
Type: Area of Effect, Lightning, Stun, Thunder
Duration: Instant

Description: Rising into the sky, Ancalagon begins to beat its wings, creating the sound of thunder as the wind starts to pick up in speed. Before long, a large tornado of eighty [80] meters tall and forty (40) meters wide is birthed from the clouds stirred by its wing beats. The winds created by this tornado race at an average speed of 50m/s, or 112mph, and the tornado is able to move through an eighty [80] meter space. However, Ancalagon is able to charge this tornado full of lightning, so that when it latches onto a target, the target is electrified by the lightning. This lightning deals 175% A-rank damage to the selected target and deals 131% to those that are outside the epicenter. Anyone that is trapped by the tornado and is hit by the lightning that is charged inside of it will be stunned for a single post. It only works on those that are equal to or lower in rank to Ancalagon's owner, those of higher rank will not be stunned, but slowed by 35% for one post.
Strengths:- Allows Ancalagon to target a single opponent and cage them in a torrent of lightning that causes 175% A-rank damage
- Stuns the selected opponent for a single post as long as the target is equal to or lower in rank to Ancalagon's owner
- As an Area of Effect spell, this allows Ancalagon to deal damage to a single person, while indirectly dealing damage to others around the selected target
Weaknesses:- Ancalagon may not always see an opponent as a threat to their owner or may confuse an ally for a threat instead
- If the target is a magus with an affinity to lightning, then the lightning magus will take -50% less damage from the ability
- Any magus with an affinity to water may find that their magic becomes more of a charge than a hindrance to the ability
- Any magus with an affinity to earth will receive -50% less damage from the ability than what is intended for them
- Allows Ancalagon to target a single opponent and cage them in a torrent of lightning that causes 175% A-rank damage

Duration: 10 posts
Cooldown: 11 posts
Description: A large amount of lightning is charged in the maw of Ancalagon and quickly fired off at a rate of 50m/s over a range of 100m. When the selected target is initially struck by the lightning, they receive 25% in damage and the lightning explodes in a diameter of 100m. Throughout this 100m, 25% of S-rank damage will be dealt to those that are located from 0-25m where the original target stands, including the original target. Those that are 26-51m away from the original target will only receive 18.75% of S-rank damage per post. Anyone that is 52-77m away from the original target will receive 12.5% of S-rank damage per post of the ability's duration. For those that are located 78-100m away from the original target, they will receive 6.25% of S-rank damage per post. Lightning cast from this ability as the capability of stunning a target for a single post throughout its entire duration, but only those that are equal to or lower in rank to Ancalagon's owner.
Strengths:- Encircles a multitude of targets, allowing for Ancalagon to deal damage to more than one person for an extended amount of time

- Deals damage over time, meaning that even if it's a small amount of damage, the damage eventually adds up in the end
Weaknesses:- Like any other lightning affinity magus, those with lightning magic will receive -50% less damage from the ability
- Water magi become more of a target when they are encased in in the lightning, meaning allies who wield water are more of a target
- Earth magi receive -50% less damage from the ability when they are targeted by the spell as they are able to absorb the lightning
- Ancalagon is sometimes not able to decipher between friend and foe, resulting in some allies or some enemies not being hurt or being hurt
