Description[]
Ever wondered what that blade Shadow always carried behind is back?
Well it is a Spirit Weapon, one of the most dangerous tools in all of the universe.
Spirit Blade is the highest rank of all the Elemental Warriors, and an inspiration to them. These characters have a sole connection to the Elite Spirits, allowing them to fight side-by-side, and eliminating all who those get in the way of the Spirit and it's Master. Spirits can be stored in any kind of weapon, improving it and allowing the Spirit to awaken. In return, the Spirit will always protect the Master.
During Shadow's fighting over Erinn, a Spirit named Dawn came to him when Erinn was near destruction and assisted him, thus defeating the Dark God and his followers. He was the first Spirit Blade ever known in all of history, and respected by the loyal Elemental Warriors. Spirit Blade Shadow was praised by his Clan, and each one of them will have a memory of him in their heart. Master Shadow & Mistress Dawn are happy to please the Elemental Warriors and protecting them as well.
The Spirit stored inside Shadow's Claymore, Dawn, a female Spirit made to protect the sole Heroes of the Universe, such as the Shadow the Hero, Lire the Nova, and so on. The reason of choosing for Shadow because he needed the most help on his journey, and is unable of doing many battles alone.
The Spirit Blade allows the user to retain his/her old abilities and weapons, such as Bolt Spells, Adv Magic, Elite Combat, Transformations, etc. Plus, he can actually fuse Fire, Ice, and Lightning into the "Fusion" Element which retains all 3 of their purposes. In addition to all of this, the Spirit Blade has a major connection with the Holy Gods above, and are given a blessing to allow it's Master to become a "Demi-God". Shadow was governed over the powers of Twilight. The "God of Twilight" possesses a fusion of Light and Darkness; Twilight, and Shadow is then known as "Twilight Hero" upon this transformation. This form is shown as the user glowing in enormous Light and Dark energy, with Shadow Angelic Wings equipped as well. This power is enormous and allows Shadow to experience the powers of a God, able to defeat anyone who gets in his way. Even as a God, it isn't the best of his potential...
History of the 1st Spirit Blade[]
Shadow before the War
Shadow after being found
During one of the Fomorian Wars, he led 200 other Elemenalists against two thousand Fomorians. When the battle ended, everyone except Shadow died. He was shamed by his loss, and cut off his right arm, then fled.
Everyone was sorrowed by this loss, and then feared Shadow was dead. Only Dawn was the one who watched Shadow from the heavens, seeing that he fled. After 10 years of searching, she finally found him, and embraced him a metallic silver arm that could amplify his movements. However, he still feels guilt on the arm, and uses a robe to conceal his identity.
When Shadow rushed to stop the Darkness, he confronted a Goddess, who granted him the Deities' powers. He refused to be a full one; only a half, as feeling more guilt to being granted this power.
And so, begins the first Spirit Blade to be ever made...

Spirit[]
thumb|500px|right|Dawn's Blade
| MP Skill Lvl | Name | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1st MP Skill | Spirit Strike | Shadow will leap up into the air, and create a wided slash attack. No Skill Freeze with this. However, it can easily be avoided by dashing under him as he jumps. |
| 2nd MP Skill | Spirit Beam | Shadow aims his sword horizontally, and shoots out a Large, Blue Beam, similar to the Battle Mage's Air Blast. Difference is that damage does not change, regardless of distance. |
| 3rd MP Skill | Spirit Force | Tosses five large magical bolts that fire on a "fixed" position of the enemy. |
| 4th MP Skill | Spirit Awakening: Shockwave Edge | Uses the first inner power of the Spirit. Shockwave Edge thrusts the blade into the ground, emitting a 360° forced lightning to nearby enemies. |
| 5th MP Skill | Spirit Awakening: Piercing Magic | Uses the second inner power of the Spirit. Piercing Fire shoots out numerous, instant bolts at the enemies about. |
| 6th MP Skill | Spirit Awakening: Dawn's Blade | Uses the last inner power of the Spirit. Shadow and Dawn will work together, throwing a single, powerful shockwave infront of his enemies, inflicting massive damage. Thrown at a 120° angle, but has incredible range. This one move will initially make enemies fall before the Spirit's might! |
Combat[]
| MP Skill Lvl | Name | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1st MP Skill | Flame Blade | Shadow enchants his blades with a flaming edge, and then makes powerful slashes forward, backward, and then forward again. An excellent combination of Spinning Slash and Destroyer of Heaven. |

| 3rd MP Skill | Plasma Cyclone | This massive tornado is shot in one direction, moving slowly with infinite range. It is extremely difficult to avoid this attack, and getting caught in it will likely kill. |
Magic[]
| MP Skill Lvl | Name | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1st MP Skill | Blaze | This firey attack launches a massive wave ontop of an enemy, heavily pushing them back. After enough distance, it creates a powerful explosion.
(Note: This attack is a "charging" spell, meaning that after every second until a max of 10, it grows in strength. Of course, that also leaves you vulnerable. Plus, this is a melee attack and not a ranged one.) |
| 2nd MP Skill | Chaos Comet | A meteor is bad. A Deep Impact is badder. And a Comet gets worse. It contains massive frozen comets that implode upon the on the area it lands. Range is about two full screens on a vertical axis. (Note: It takes 3 seconds to cast the skill and then use it. Also, Chaos Comet does a (Deadly) Single Hit attack, unlike Deep Impact which leaves a DoT effect.) |
| 3rd MP Skill | Thunderstrike | This is an extremely fatal spell that causes massive rains of thunder. It is performed in three phases:
Phase 1: It has a powerful charging phase. The charge lasts for 3.5 seconds, which can be intercepted.

|---|---|---|
| 2nd MP Skill | Holy Knight | The Holy Knight is a powerful transformation that governs of whats all Light and Holy. This effect improves his melee and magic attacks and provides slight defense.

| 15th MP Skill | God of Twilight | The Demi-God powers were a gift from the deities bestowed upon a being. They don't add Attack nor Defense, but they do add a strong Vitality buff, along with an additional 50% HP Regen along with a 75% MP Regen. In addition, this form moves faster and contains a Super Armor effect (within the exception of grabbings). The transformation effect poses a large shockwave, pushing back nearby foes. It lasts infinitely long, and can make the other two transformations last forever as well. The form can be canceled by using the A command. |
Transformational Abilities[]
Holy Knight[]
| MP Skill Lvl | Name | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1st MP Skill | Light Flash | Shadow will blind all targets in Light. Their screen will blank out White for 5 seconds, making them extremely vulnerable. Range is approximately around the skill freeze. However, because they are only blind and not stunned, they will still attack. |
| 2nd MP Skill | Light Burst | This attack shoots a powerful beam toward the enemy, causing an eruption. It has almost the same shooting properties as the Ice Spear. |
| 3rd MP Skill | Divine Blade | The blade is a dangerous tool that creates a destructive circle, and then dashes through with a deadly cut. It is similar to the effects of the Duelist's Dread Punisher, except performed differently. |
Chaos Knight[]
| MP Skill Lvl | Name | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1st MP Skill | Dark Control | This mind-boggling skill controls a foe (from Kastulle Ruins Lower or Upper Floors) that will tend to mob its enemy at a nonstop rate. 6 of these can be summoned on the field, each lasting 45 seconds.

He grasps his hand, and then vanishes. All of a sudden, the entire circle is attacked by piercing marks, and then powerful cross strikes from all directions. The circle vanishes, and the enemy has taken a ton of damage. This is the Chaos' Wraith. |

| MP Skill Lvl | Name | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 4th MP Bar | Fury of Light | The holy energy will generate an aura, which automatically pierces nearby targets using holy energy. The attack only lasts for 15 seconds or if no one is in range (full screen). |

| 6th MP Bar | Spear of Light | The holy energy generates a massive spear that causes an extremely powerful explosion if impacted (full screen vertical, half screen horizontal). |
| 7th MP Bar | Wings of Rage | The dark energy throws shadowy crow that homes in on an enemy. When struck, an explosion is made and a DoT effect is left on those impacted. |

If its an ally, it can revive them or add an extra life to the entire group once. Up to 10 Spirits can be gathered, and the whole phase lasts for 60 seconds. (Note: For an enemy, there has to be a corpse or this ability will not be put into effect. If an ally, they must have lost a life. If neither can follow, the effects won't take place, but the skill's duration will continue.) |
| 9th MP Bar | Sword of Shadow | A powerful shadow energy emits from Shadow's metallic arm, which summons multiple piercing swords. These swords directly pop out from the tool, directly splattering on the field. The attack stays for 10 seconds, along with ignoring any possible defenses. In addition, anyone hit by the swords will be debuffed and disables the use of skills for 15 seconds. This is one incredible attack by the use of swords and the deities... |
