Meteor Dragon Slayer magic is a form of Fire magic where the user predominantly creates jets of fire from their limbs to increase mobility, damage, and to even fly. The flames, while generally smaller and more focused than its Fire Dragon Slayer cousins, are hotter and burn a blue-ish white. This style creates less broad destruction and more focused damage. [color=aquamarine][u][b]Spells:[/b][/u][/color] [hider=Spell List] Even without his spells, Tone is an expert at martial arts and practices a style known as [b]Meteor Fist[/b]. Taught to him by his father, this martial art focuses heavily on striking but also includes grappling and kicking techniques. The philosophy behind it is using explosive energy to attack relentlessly and end a fight quickly, thus it has little in the way of defensive techniques aside from basic blocking. It can be very stamina intensive, especially during a rush of attacks. [b]Meteor Dragon's Crashing Fist[/b] Tone cloaks his fist in his flames while propelling himself forward with jets of fire on his legs and arms. The added momentum in the gap-closer adds more power to the following punch, which itself shoots a small jet of flame briefly. A simple technique with a lot of power and speed, easily capable of surprising foes and ending fights in one blow. [b]Meteor Dragon's Claw[/b] Much like the Crashing Fist, only it ignites his lower leg and results in a kick rather than a punch. Similarly effective and comparable in both speed and power. [b]Meteor Dragon's Breaching Horn[/b] Another technique similar to Crashing Fist, but instead resulting in a headbutt rather than a punch. This technique can be performed even faster due to improved aerodynamics but has less room for course-correction during the charge. [b]Meteor Dragon's Roar[/b] A breath attack that functions almost like a laser, Tone releases a massive jet of flame from his mouth. It is fairly narrow and its range is more limited than other Dragon Slayers' similar techniques, but the heat from this jet is very intense and a direct hit deals incredible damage. This technique can also be adjusted, allowing Tone to swivel the attack and strike foes who may have dodged the initial burst of flame. [b]Meteor Dragon's Falling Star[/b] Tone will set his hands ablaze and grab his opponent before rocketing off into the sky. His hands will continue to burn his foe until he decides to let go, dropping his enemy from whichever height he determines and letting gravity do the work for whatever happens next. [b]Meteor Dragon Secret Art: Apocalyptic Meteor Strike[/b] Tone covers himself in his flames and grapples a foe before shooting up high into the sky, burning his foe the entire way. After reaching a sufficient altitude of his choice he turns around and begins rocketing back to the ground, further propelled by gravity for even greater speed and power. He then crashes into the ground with his foe, releasing tremendous energy and causing incredible damage and devastation to the impact zone. [/hider] [color=aquamarine][u][b]Magic Rank:[/b][/u][/color] A [color=aquamarine][u][b]Strengths:[/b][/u][/color] [b]Powerhouse[/b] With practice comes strength, thus Tone has managed to become very strong. His magic is capable of severe damage and his physical might is equally impressive. [b]Martial Arts[/b] With practice comes skill, so Tone has become quite adept at hand-to-hand combat. His sharp reflexes and killer instinct make him a menace in close quarters before his magic is even accounted for. [b]Determination[/b] With practice comes focus, therefore Tone has effective concentration. When he sets his mind to a task he makes absolutely sure to complete it to the best of his abilities. [color=aquamarine][u][b]Weaknesses:[/b][/u][/color] [b]Front Loaded[/b] His explosive strength and power comes at a cost and his magic reserves simply cannot sustain it for extended periods. Tone will tire himself out fairy quickly in combat when he uses his magic. [b]Too Focused[/b] Once he sets his mind to something he will focus on it relentlessly, leaving him prone to missing details and ignoring other people. [b]Low Emotional Intelligence[/b] Not only is Tone not very good at regulating his own emotions, he isn't very good at identifying emotions in others. This ties into his focus issues where he simply won't realize someone is sad, mad, etc. [color=aquamarine][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u][/color] A fairly straightforward and no-nonsense guy, Tone likes to have goals to work towards and take things on a step-by-step basis to achieve them. His primary goal is to find and rescue his brother, thus all else comes second to this objective. He can be very friendly and amiable but even his other relationships will be sidelined for his personal quest. While perfectly willing to settle things without violence he is very confident in his abilities and is equally willing to solve his problems with his fists. He's far from arrogant though because he's very aware of his weaknesses and will make deliberate efforts to compensate. He isn't immune to anger but it is generally reserved for things pertaining to his family, such as any insults or snide jokes. [color=aquamarine][u][b]History/Bio:[/b][/u][/color] The Soretto family has lived for many generations alongside Bothynus, the Meteor Dragon, in the land of Bosco. Tone, along with his younger brother Pitch, were trained by Bothynus in the Dragon Slayer arts and their father, Treble, trained them in martial arts. For Tone his purpose in life was very clear: protect the aging Bothynus so that he could continue to carry on his secrets and history for generations to come. And all was well and simple in his life until the day Draco Clamor arrived. The dark guild raided the mountain they called home, ultimately killing most of the Soretto family and kidnapping Pitch. They tried to negotiate with Bothynus for him to join but he refused and was ultimately dealt a mortal blow before Draco Clamor left. In the aftermath only an injured Tone and crippled Treble remained, along with the dying Bothynus. The dragon requested that Tone not act on his grief and rage, that he remain in Bosco with his father and rebuild. There was no guarantee his brother wouldn't be killed and a life of revenge would be a life wasted. He tried his best to abide by the dragon's dying wishes but his drive for revenge and rescuing his brother was simply too great. Once his father recovered and was no longer in critical condition, Tone left the mountain to travel to Fiore where the dark guild came from. He has been searching in Fiore for almost a year now, struggling to survive out in the real world and struggling to find even the slightest bit of information about Draco Clamor. It was at this point that he realized he needed to join a guild to at least make ends meet, but the first guild he tried to join was the famous one by Crocus: Black Curtain. They denied him because the interview process brought to light that Tone was too focused on his own goals for their liking. This "defeat" left a sour taste in his mouth but he soon discovered that there was another nearby guild in Crocus known as Fenixtear. He found Fenixtear much more accepting and understanding of his plight and made himself at home. The rumors that they killed a dragon bothered him a little but at least it meant they were tough and could surely help him on his journey. That is, if he could even continue on his quest at all. But in the meantime he's made some new acquaintances and hopefully friends, so at least he's no longer alone. Tone knows that he needs to get stronger, if his last encounter with the dark guild was anything to go by, and the wizards here will be just perfect for helping him with that... [/hider] This will be my secondary character. I have reviewed him and approve him. Fair and balanced.
