Personality
Saul is very arrogant. As one of the first Dragon Slayers, Saul is overconfident to a fault, believing that nothing alive could stand a chance against him, although he did compliement Aether Cade after their battle about his power. He often insults or goads opponents in battle. As a bloodthirsty individual, which is what led him to slaughter the other dragons in the first place, he savors battle. He purposefully draws out his battles in order to have as much fun as possible.

History
400 years ago, Saul was chosen as one of the first humans to fight for the pro-integration side of the Dragons during the Dragon Civil War. Saul soon became drunk with power, and began slaying the dragons on his own side as well, hunting them to near extinction. A select few Dragon Slayers had bathed in enough blood in order to transform into Dragons themselves. Saul was one of these Slayers.

A century later, Saul created the guild Dragon Gunfire, along with several of that centuries current Dragon Slayers. Not knowing of his Dragon transformation, Saul left the guild, and passed on the title of guild master to his son, not wanting anyone to figure out about his transformation.

He returned to the guild 300 years later to reaquire his guild. At the time, the guild master, Aether Cade, did I not want to relinquish control. This led to a fierce battle against each other, ending in Aether's favor. Saul left the guild forever after this, but swore vengeance.

After reaching optimal size, he throws it at his target, generating a large electrical explosion that decimates anyone in the way.
