Effect: A signature spell of the Shadow Dragon Slayer and one of the spells specific to the Shadow Dragon Slayer. The user turns his physical body into shadows that meld into the natural shadows of his surroundings.

Hey Hey! I'll be attempting to grade spells properly today. So here we go!

First off, you can get the Englulfing effect for free for any of your spells, so if you want that then edit them on.

Shadow Dragon's Meld - now, I like that spell. It's put together pretty well overall. But the way it is put together it's styled like a buff rather than a proper defensive spell. You would have to give it the buff extra in place of one of the others in order to get the increased speed effect. Otherwise it looks pretty good. (Of course, you can replace it with a better version later to get what you lost back for it)

Shadow Dragon's roar looks good. I will note that as it stands it isnt ranged without the ranged extra. If you would like it to just be a tornado that surrounds Endolf, that's fine. But that's what it is at the moment and I wanted to make sure it's what you wanted.

Shadow Dragon's Waxwing Flash - It looks like a solid, fast melee attack. I'm afraid I'm not clear whether you intend to be able to sustain that grip however, and if so, it needs to have the Sustained extra added (as well as the sustained cost after the full cost).

Shadow Dragon's Claw - this is built exactly like the last spell but claims to do something different. I feel like this one needs the buff extra as well, and by itself it could act as a 'burst' of speed through the jet propulsion you describe. You could take the points out of speed to add buff and a little more power to that speed, as a suggestion.

Finally, Shadow Dragon's Blade - looks fine overall, but your description says it can be used at range, while currently it can't without the Ranged extra. If you add that, you can specify that it doesn't have to be ranged if you wish.

I think that's everything. Let me know when you've edited things, okay?

Alright! I think these spells look fine from my perspective. Please note that your shadow meld only lasts two posts from the lingering, but that's just a friendly reminder.

In the meantime, have fun~
