Description:
Everyone knows about the popular dragon slayers that apparently stand on the top of the magical world. Many dream to be like them, taught magic by legendary dragons or at least having lacrima with that magic inside of their body. But not everyone is lucky enough to find a living dragon or perhaps that lacrima which is filled with this powerful magic. An unfortunate group just like that decided they would go against their own fate and try to artificially create dragon slaying magic. And what type they chose? Rose dragon, a kind of dragons that no longer roams the world at all. They went extinct many, many years ago and these magicians and scientists decided that they’ll bring them back in order to learn their magic. Something like that, it’s clearly impossible goal. But after many generations of research and failed experiments, this unknown group finally managed to succeed, albeit just a little. What they managed to create was not exactly a dragon, but something that was very close to it and nearly identical in it’s appearance. However, this was not their goal, as this creature did not possess any special magical powers. But it was a start nonetheless.

After many other decades, another creature was created. And this time, it actually possessed a unique magic that was unlike anything they have ever seen. Even unlike the actual dragon slaying magic that they were trying to artificially cultivate.It was a shame, but at this point, it was beyond clear that they would never succeed at bringing back something that was no longer part of this mortal realm. The research was ended and the creature was locked away in place unknown, never to be seen again. And just like that, it appeared that these men and women devoted their lives to a futile goal, wasted away. Little did they know that they actually managed to make something powerful and unique. Magic that is very similar to dragon slaying in it’s core, but completely different in it’s use. As many dragon slayers focus on heavy offense with very little in the way of exceptions to that, the artificial Rose dragon magic is extremely heavy support with little to no offense or defense to support the caster. In that sense, the caster is usually a rather fragile mage that can boost others beyond their wildest imaginations.

Leila managed to obtain this magic from the artificially created dragon when she accidentally found him on her travels. After all, she is part of a treasure hunting guild and uncovering secrets is her speciality in a sense. And on one of her missions that were meant to do just that, she found a cave that housed the big creature. With it’s loneliness from being locked away for so long, it happily accepted Leila’s invitation into her own world of the Gardens of Eden. And right now, the creature resides there, teaching the young girl a new magic as a reward for freeing him. Good thing too, as it saved the poor girl’s career after she lost her status as the Goddess of the Gardens and thus not having access to her old magic anymore, along with all her memories of the old days.

Strengths:

• Extremely powerful support magic
  
• Great variety of binding and debuffing spells
  

Weaknesses:

• Very little offensive abilities despite imitating destructive dragon slayers
  
• Usually leaves caster pretty fragile or defenseless
  
• Very little emphasis on the caster’s well-being

Unique Abilities:
Rose Dragon’s resonance – Best way to describe Leila’s main unique ability is to say “Strength in numbers”. In order to maker her supportive spells truly count in battle, effect of every spell is increased when multiple allies are affected by it. This ability does not work beyond hard caps such as damage resistance.

• Effectiveness of all healing spells is increased by 25% by another person that is healed at once, starting with a second ally, capping out at extra 75% when at least 4 people are healed at once.  Lower the max to 50%
  
• Effectiveness of all buffs is increased by 25% with each additional person that is buffed at once, capping out at extra 50% when at least three people are buffed at once.
  
• Effectiveness of all debuffs is increased by 25% with each additional person that is debuffed at once, capping out at extra 50% when at least three people are debuffed at once.
  

Overall, I feel this UA is a BIT overpowered, having too much going on at a time.  If you get rid of one of them, I'll approve this ability, otherwise, 3 abilities in 1 (which this UA is equivalent to 3 UAs normally) is a bit much.  


Rose Dragon’s sacrifice – Rose dragon’s magic is one of a heavy support where the caster forget’s their own well being. In fact, the more damage the caster takes, the stronger their power becomes, allowing them to support their ally even more. Each time Leila takes any sort of damage, she will gain a stack that lasts for next 5 posts. This duration is reset with each new stack gained. Maximal number of stacks is 5 and they cannot be removed by external sources and means like debuffing magic.

• 1 stack - Effectiveness of all buffs is increased by 10%
  
• 2 stacks -  Effectiveness of all buffs is increased by 20%
  
• 3 stacks -  Effectiveness of all buffs is increased by 30%
  
• 4 stacks -  Effectiveness of all buffs is increased by 40%
  
• 5 stacks -  Effectiveness of all buffs is increased by 50%
  

Rose Dragon’s evolution - It is said that people are constantly evolving, especially during intense moments like battle. This is true for Leila and her magic as well, as she grows stronger with each moment she is accumulating magical energy. With this ability, effectiveness of all buffs is increased by 10% each post from the start of the thread and caps at extra 50% for all buffs once at least 5 posts have been made. This can be delayed by any ability that would stop Leila from regenerating or using her magic temporarily.

Rose Dragon’s body - Someone who focuses solely on supporting others always has needs to have plenty of magical energy inside of their body. There is little  that is worse than supportive unit running out of juice after all. And for that, the body of Rose Dragon slayer is always saturated with it, every single petal serving as small additional container. This gives Leila increase of her total MP pool by 50%, but comes with a significant decrease to her certain abilities. All spells of this magic will deal 50% less damage, regardless of the target. This only extends to this magic alone and does not affect Leila’s secondary magic or spell fusions that use spells of said secondary magic as base.
So I looked through all of your spells and you don't have a single offensive spell in your arsenal, so the drawback of "all spells of this magic will deal 50% less damage" is a moot drawback due to not having a single offensive spell. I will, however, allow a +10% MP boost, but that's about as high as I'm going to offer.

Rose Dragon’s embrace - Leila constantly emits a friendly and inviting aura of cleansing energy that helps herself and everyone she views as an ally. It affects all allies in the area of 25 meters around Leila, filling them with the warmth of positivity and cures their ailments that were inflicted during battle or from any other source. All internal ailments that affect the body from inside such as poison, curses and motion sickness are cured completely while ailments that affect one’s body from the outside such as burning or freezing have their effect decreased by 25% if they are of the same rank as Leila or 50% if they are of rank below Leila’s.
A statement must be needed that those cured of internal and external illnesses must be from magic of equal or lower rank than Leila.

I'm also going to require a duration and cooldown for this effect too.  Otherwise, if it's a passive, it's a bit overpowered.

Rose Dragon’s senses – All dragon slayers have senses that greatly surpass those of natural humans. And of course, Leila now possesses these as well in order to further imitate those that were thought the true dragon magic. Her eyesight is much stronger, capable of grasping things that are even kilometers away nearly perfectly, strong sense of hearing that allows her to even hear heartbeat of people that are near her, sense of smell that could be compared to the one of trained tracking dogs and enhanced speed that is at least 25% greater than the one of regular mages.
Speed, in this case, is not a sense.  Please remove that
