Info

Brionac

The Twilight's Blade is the magnificent edge by the Twilight's grasp: Shadow. An energy called the "Twilight Force" could give anyone such extreme power, and even possible control over the entire balance of good and evil. It was originally used to maintain peace within all beings.

The force was also called the Caliburn on Erinn, whom was created by all the powers of the Deities, and could control all of Erinn. It was so unstable that not even mere mortals could hold onto it. Caliburn undergone a large number of transformations that could destablize it more, making it a threat, especially to the wrong hands.
A thousand years ago, this Force was carried by the Milletians alongside with the Deities, and was kept out of Human and Fomor hands for their Greed. However, one disaster struck, as its bearer thought the force couldn't be safe in the Milletian's hands, so they all agreed to seal it away. Doing so, the Milletians sealed themselves as Stars, and one star, the Force's bearer, had such a powerful glow in the stars.

When Shadow was born, the Deity Morrighan saw something shining in his heart. After seeing that, she realized it was the Twilight Force birthed upon Shadow, and felt deep depression when she used him. After Shadow forgave her negative actions to him, she then decided it would be best to help him become a Twilight's Blade in order to fulfill the Twilight Force's purpose.
After Shadow's long journey thanks to Morrighan's, Dawn's, and other people's help, he was able to overcome countless beings and bring them to peace. Doing so, the universe itself would be closer to peace.

Originally, the Twilight's Blade had a refined Spear called the Brionac, the final transformation of Caliburn. It was actually touched by the Light and Dark, which is ironic as it was a tool for Twilight. This blade is also known as the "Weapon of Piercing", meaning it can cut through all defenses.
In addition to all this, the Twilight's Blade continues to retain all the weaponry and skills used in the past. Such an amazing warrior...

Spirit

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.

This one move will initially make enemies fall before the Spirit's might!

Combat

MP Skill Lvl	Name	Effect

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. Phase 2: The next phase causes a massive eruption, affecting all those within range (approximately an entire screen). Phase 3: The last phase unleashes massive thunderbolts over most of the field.

500000000th 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). 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. (Note: There is a 5% Chance that a Fire Golem or a Paradom will spawn, and a 1% Chance a Cyclops or a Giant Stone Golem will spawn.)
2nd MP Skill	Dark Bolt	This attack unleashes a fusion of the Fire, Ice, and Lightning Bolt spells. It takes 2 seconds to fully cast.
3rd MP Skill	Chaotic Wraith	The Chaos Knight will generate a massive circle infront of him, which indicates the fielded range (approximate 3/4ths a full screen infront of him). 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.

God of Twilight

Note: All of these skill levels are beyond 3. That means an extra MP level is given and it must be gained in order to use the skill's effect.

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).

8th MP Bar	Shadow of Spirit	A shadow energy emits from Shadow's metallic arm, which calls forth fallen souls. If its an enemy, it can be used to attack a living creature. 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 600 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...
10th MP Bar	Life Drain	Attaches a yellow string from the arm to the enemy, sapping 300 Life Points per second up to 1.5 seconds, forcefully pushing the target away afterward.
11th MP Bar	Mana Drain	Similar to Life Drain, except it absorbs Mana instead.
12th MP Bar	Crash Burst	Fires a powerful arrow that, upon impact, will instantly spread to more nearby targets. The more targets, the damage of Crash Burst increases by 100% per target up to 1000%.

14th MP Bar	Caliburn's Chaos	The awakening of Caliburn's dark judgment. It inflicts all negative attributes (Curse, Poison, Petrify, Frozen, Burn, Bind, Disarm, Haste) to the all other players (ally or enemy alike) which lasts for 10 seconds.
15th MP Bar	Caliburn's Force	A powerful force emitting from the Caliburn. When this happens, Shadow spawns at the direct center of the area, and generates three, destructive shockwaves while surrounding him in an aura. If one touches the aura, they will receive heavy damage, and if one is hit by the shockwave, they will be KOed instantly (excluding bosses; does heavy damage). This ability is a major threat to both allies and enemies.
