Ice Dragon Slayer Magic
Necromantic Frozen Passion(TBM)
Lost Magic

Sometimes the sins of the parent come back to haunt the children they bear, for Itova this was expressly true. Dragon slaying magic is the worst curse that you can wish upon someone within dragon society. When the largest pack on Snowfall Island chased off every other dragonic pack living there, those scorned banded together in order to see this curse bestowed upon their enemy. Months later Malsvire hatched and began her life, unaware of the curse placed upon her, at least until due to her pack’s battle oriented nature she ended up killing every single member of her family. When she left the island to escape what she had done? Was also when other drake’s started identifying her as a dragon slayer and it became almost impossible for the dragoness to get along with others of her species because her icy magic was borne to bring harm to other dragons.

Strengths
✄ Since it can easily freeze water this icy magic is stronger against creatures of a water element.
✄ She both uses dragon slayer magic and is a dragoness herself thus Itova is capable of flight while using her magic.
✄ This Ice magic is rather versatile in what it is capable of doing, from attacks to defense and healing.
✄  Considering she is both an actual Dragon and using Dragon Slayer magic, Itova can fly.

Weaknesses
✄ Creatures wielding this magic are more susceptible to spells of the fire variety due to the magic.
✄ Itova is unable to sense the aura’s of other mages due to the cold field around her only allowing her to detect magic when a spell is actively cast. Thus in some conditions she can’t tell if someone is a mage or not.
✄ Wielding this magic can make it difficult for Malsvire to get along with her own kind due to being a danger to them.
✄ Since this magic is so cold it makes the wielder's core temperature lower than average, meaning fever’s are more potent to them.
✄ Any sort of melee range attacks via something heated deal more damage due to the wielder's body naturally needing to be in a frigid state.
✄ This magic is a pure element meaning it may not be as powerful as other ice magic’s that are mixed elements.
✄ Itova honed several different skills and while a varied magic can be an advantage in this case it leaves her without a speciality
✄ Lacking a specialty Malsvire has to pick which spells she uses when carefully, otherwise she may be unable to use a spell when she needs it.
✄ Some people may be hesitant to stay in prolonged physical contact with the wielder of this magic because they feel dead cold to the touch.
✄ because they start out at a lower temperature than your average person ice dragon mages are more prone to overheating than normal mages.
✄ Akin to how sunlight melts snow, ice slayer magic is more prone to pure light magic as it amplifies the light to make heat.
✄ Some spells also share quite the weakness towards sound based magics as vibration is capable of shattering the ice.

Lineage: N/A

✄ Fleet of Foot ✄

Itova’s species of Dragon resembles closely the biologically of ancient breeds of raptors, bipedal and meant to have a large stride. Due to this the starting speed of Malsvire is different than what it would be for a human mage. Instead of the normal numbers provided for the starting speed of character’s, Itova began with her number’s being 13mph walking, 18mph running, and 28mph for sprinting, after this she scales normally. Though in the case of PvP one may count this as a 50% buff to her speed instead if required, the number’s are just for my fun and estimated off what is thought to be roughly the base abilities for the family Dromaeosaurs, which while yes are indeed no longer living, are the closest real examples to Itova’s biologically expect for their inability to fly.  

✄ Raptor ✄

Continuing from the above, Itova does not possess the same averaging in her senses that humans do. While this can give an advantage sometimes, it also has it’s weak points, all based on her species. Being a naturally predatory species her vision is binocular vision meaning she’s giving up being able to see the large field of vision humans can. Her hearing is advanced, as is her sense of smell. It should also be noticed that her snout is sensitive to touch. Also while Itova is intelligent she is not so in the same way as Human’s. In terms of tool usage and such, she can only be aquated to modern birds if she’s lucky, her ability to speak the human tongue is a result of magic, not intelligence.

✄ Snow Bound ✄

The cold surrounds this creature, Itova’s presence can cause the weather and conditions of an area to change if she does not actively work to suppress it. Often times this means that a while after a thread starts when she is present snow becomes so deep the landscape might as well be somewhere that's snow locked year round, since most of the time her presence causes a blizzard.

✄The Deep Blue ✄

As one could guess from the strengths of her magic, her lack of sensitivity to cold temperatures, this dragoness is capable of swimming in even the coldest waters. However that’s a strength, the actual function of this ability is that she doesn’t lose speed for being in water as her wing’s function as large fins beneath the surface, due to having a different lung structure from a human, she can remain underwater for anywhere between 20 to 40 minutes depending on the conditions before she went under. (If she was made to dive under distress clearly she would not be able to hold her breath as if she went under for a planned hunting trip.)

✄ It’s Just Frozen Water ✄

The trickiest thing about Malsvire? Due to wielding Ice Magic she can swim through deep snow and ice as if she was swimming in water. Itova cannot ‘run’ or ‘fly’ beneath these conditions, she must swim

D-Rank Spells

Name: Ice Spine
Rank: D
Type: Single Offensive, Chainable
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 2 Posts +1 per chain.
Description: Along the upper side of Itova’s tail near its tip, an icicle forms in a shape resembling the shape of a double sided skewer, by flicking her tail she can send this at someone dealing D rank damage to them.
Strengths:
✄ Target is often bleeding after being struck since the spine is sharp, thus making them easier to keep track of.
Weaknesses:
✄ Only one spine is fired, thus especially since the spike is small, she’s only able to attack one person at a time with it.
✄ Sometimes striking with these can be difficult as they are thin compared to most other attacks, like throwing darts.

Name: Clever Girl
Rank: D
Type: Single Defense
Duration: 3 posts
Cooldown: 4 posts
Description: This spell is actually a clone that sports 60hp and can be used as a shield. It’s mobile and able to cast harmless, effectless mock versions of her spells to further its deception. Lastly since this is a solid clone it is able to damage other’s via melee, dealing normal D-rank melee damage if it strikes something. Think the scene in jurassic park where one raptor acts as a decoy to lure the hunter into the trap of the other raptor. Basically that scene in a spell!
Strengths:
✄ Useful ploy that has the ability to be used in numerous conditions.  
Weaknesses:
✄ Higher rank mages may have abilities that let them tell the clone from the real thing, thus it would lose all it’s effects expect as a shield.
✄ Since this is a D-rank trick, it is actually easily taken down as a good deal of B-rank spells are capable of taking it down in one hit, and even within a melee fight it goes down in a few hits. So it’s not lasting.

Name: Ice Thorns
Rank: D
Type: Offensive Multi-Hit
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 2 Posts
Description: Ice forms along Itova’s leg’s creeping down like vines onto the ground, and from this point it creeps outwards for burst range of D rank, beginning resemble thorned vines. When these ‘ice plants’ near someone they will begin crawling up their body, each thorn that dig’s in dealing 25% d-rank damage. However the vines can be quite easy to dodge, and strong enough creatures can shake them off easily especially the further from the epicenter they are snared as the vines weaken in their ability to ‘hold’ something the further out they go.
Strengths:
✄ If for some odd reason the vines did somehow manage to engulf some being they could end up doing tons of damage.
Weaknesses:
✄ Unlikely to do tons of damage to a target that can move as at the first prick an enemy would clearly shake the vines off and hightail it away from them.
✄ They will also attack allies that don’t wield ice, water, cold or snow based magic, as they are not intelligent and attack much like an invasive species when placed.

Name: Icicle Shower
Rank: D
Type: AoE Offensive
Duration: 1 Post
Cooldown: 2 Posts
Description:  By allowing her feather’s to host icicles than beating her wing’s, Itova can cover an area effect equal to that of D-rank spell range for such in sharp shards of ice dealing 50% d-rank damage. The secondary effect for this AoE is freezing an enemy of equal rank or lower
Strengths:
✄ Can potentially damage a large number of people if enough enemies are within it’s range.
Weaknesses:
✄ The damage to each target is less than it would be if she hit them all with a single hit attack, so it’s unlikely to take down an enemy.
✄ Considering this spell is of the lowest class of spells, it’s range and damage actually aren’t a lot compared to other’s.


C Rank Spells Blast

Name: Series Shot
Rank: C
Type: Multi-hit
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 3 Posts
Description: While one believes that a dragon may have to charge up an attack before using it, however most dragons keep a reserve to use when necessary. Itova’s reserve is 12 shots of solidified ice that deal 25% c-rank damage when they strike, she is able to fire them the normal multi-hit distance and at the normal speed for C rank.
Strengths:
✄ If she can manage to strike multiple times on the same person she can do a decent amount of damage to them.
Weaknesses:
✄ Each shot has the chance to be dodged, so she may end up missing all her shots, which would suck.
✄ If she doesn’t use all her shots in a post, than after cooldown she only has whatever remained of her shots the last use to use.

Name: Ice Blast
Rank: C
Type: Single target charged
Duration: 2 posts (1 charge, 1 attack)
Cooldown: 3 posts
Description: Collecting her ice magic beneath her tongue Itova can hold an ice blast for a little bit longer than she normally would resulting in an ice blast that does an additional 25% damage compared to what it would have done if it was not charged up.
Strengths:
✄ Stronger than some of the other attacks she is capable of performing
Weaknesses:
✄ Can not use any other damaging spells while charging this attack.
✄ She can only hit one person with this attack, so it’s not too useful against multiple enemies.

Name: Ice Skeleton
Rank: C
Type: Defense
Duration: 2 Posts
Cooldown: 3 posts
Description: Ice grows over Itova or an allies skin to match their skeleton very closely, this frosty exoskeleton is capable of taking 3 c rank strikes before it fails.
Strengths:
✄ Can be used on either Itova herself or an ally
Weaknesses:
✄ Itova is kinda a lone wolf sort so she’s actually highly unlikely to have an ally to use it on.
✄ Some spells, especially an opponent with buffs, are still easily able to break this shield.

B Rank Spells  Breath

Name: Frost Breath
Rank: B
Type: Charged AoE
Duration: 2 Posts
Cooldown: 4 Posts
Description: Most of the time it seems like a dragon simply opens its mouth and lets loose a breath attack. In reality? That’s not how it works, a dragon's powerful breath attack is often charged in the base of it’s throat for a bit before being ejected onto an enemy. Due to this charge up period in which they can’t use other attacks, the damage dealt by this average sized, average speed for B rank AoE is the full damage for a B rank spell. Secondary effect is freezing opponents in place for a single post.
Strengths:
✄ In terms of damage this is a fairly decent hitting attack.
Weaknesses:
✄Itova can not activate any new spells during the charging post, meaning for a post she can’t really attack or defend directly.
✄ It’s secondary effect can only affect those at or beneath it’s rank

Name: Frost Puff
Rank: B
Type: Single hit
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 4 Posts
Description: This attack is made of snow and is quite quick to fire off, dealing a single B rank worth of damage. Travel’s normal distance at a normal speed for a burst spell.
Strengths:
✄ For comedic effect this can also be used to simple bury someone under a puff shaped pile of snow.
Weaknesses:
✄ Travels less distance than most single hit spells would.
✄ In terms of impact pain, snow doesn’t really hurt the same way ice would.

Name: Frost Mist
Rank: B
Type: Defense AoE
Duration: 3 Posts
Cooldown: 4 Posts
Description: Using her ice magic Itova causes the water in the air for b-rank AoE distance to begin to ‘freeze’ creating a mist made from snow and ice that kinda hangs suspended there. While this does no damage? The changed environment is capable of absorbing 3 B Rank AoE hits before failing, and until it does fail visibility is reduced due to all the obstructions to vision in the way.
Strengths:
✄ An unique defense spell that someone may not be able to tell is defensive since most AoE’s are offensive.
Weaknesses:
✄ The amount it protects from is weaker than what a normal ‘shield’ would defense from as this is still an AoE
✄ While good for protection and fighting alongside allies, the spell has no offensive properties.

Signature

Name: Snow Padding
Rank: D
Type: Defense
Duration: Once per post
Cooldown: Once per post
Description: Due to the fact itova is mostly white this move is harder to see coming, but right beneath her feather’s in a thin layer of snow that clings to her body. Naturally allowed their to increase her ability to maintain her body temperature, when she is attacked her magic causes this layer to seep out and protect her from some of the damage she would otherwise sustain, up to a D rank of damage.
Strengths:
✄ Pad’s off some damage on attacks towards Itova.
Weaknesses:
✄ The amount of damage it protects from is actually very small compared to potential attacks
✄ Can not protect Itova’s allies unless she’s going to like step in front of them to protect them herself.

Name: Quick Shot
Rank: User Ranked
Type: Multi Hit
Duration: Usable Once Per Post
Cooldown: Usable Once Per Post
Description: Attacking to damage someone? Takes a few seconds to charge up whatever blast you intend on striking with, Quick Shot is achieved by Itova cutting this ‘charge up’ of her normal attacks short and firing the ice blast before it solidifies enough to be harmful resulting in the spell traveling 25% faster than average multi hits she casts as its lighter. However the impact is no less damning even if it does no damage each shot causes the struck enemy to be knocked back by 25% her rank’s multihit range, however if they are outside of normal multihit range for Itova’s rank, they can not be struck by this. Maximum of 12 strikes regardless of spells rank.
Strengths:
✄ Can move objects with the strikes as well as creatures, so it's efficient for clearing paths if she gets trapped somewhere.
✄ This spell travels 25% faster than whatever the maximum speed for its rank is, making it harder to dodge than your average spell.
Weaknesses:
✄ Most effective when used in close range to maximize the knock back, putting Malsvire in danger of being struck.
✄ While multiple targets can be struck or shots can be focused on an individual target? Itova can only fire 12 times total.
✄ Quick Shot deals no damage to an enemy as it breaks upon making contact with them due to how little energy is put into it.
