I learned what a Sandbox was today! Amongst my howls of victory I realized I could accumulate all my ideas here instead of a tatered notebook AND its rule free!!! Please Don't take any of these ideas. It's not cool, especially given all the time and effort spent hashing out this golden nuggets. If you see something that lights a spark, give me a shout and we could do some collaborations.

WORK IN PROGRESS

The dream with this magic is to have a dragon slayer with a unique ability that is capable of manipulating his element with enough precision to form auxiliary constructs (like wings). It has been decided that this will be a Second Generation Dragon Slayer. Additionally, a mechanism could be established that allows for a connection between the slayer and the spirit of the Dragon whose lacrima he absorbed (which would already be present in his backstories)

Eden Dragon Slayer Magic (楽園の点滅ドラゴンマジック, Rakuen no tenmetsu doragonmajikku): Possible Explanation 1: In effect a subset of Water Dragon Slayer Magic, this Slayer style would allow the manipulation of "Holy-Water" as its main element. From a physical, reality standpoint this could include Dew, Plasma (in blood not like lightning), or the water present in plants, or even the clouds. From an elemental standpoint this unique element would be a fusion of Light and Water magics, such that the ethernano produced would be a liquid, but more viscous than water, and also visibly sparkling and energy-like. While not conventional, if you'd like to get scientific, it could be manipulation of Glyerol's, a liquid chemically similar to water,albeit more viscous and biologically, a key component of the fats present in most living beings; however, I worry that the Admins would deem the element of "fat" stupid, which is why I worry it is a dead end. The name is awesome, and while its not a good practice to go from the name and work backwards, the name is literal perfect because the non-dragon slayer version of the magic he practices would be called Paradise Magic(パラダイス, Paradaisu). If the Light-Water road were to be taken, taking the liberty of sprinkling some Heavenly/Cosmic seasoning on the element would aesthetically help differentiate it more as its own element AND provided some nifty space-style loopholes that could enable to a "Heavenly Garden" Dragon to communicate through space and time with the human who received a portion of his magic. This leads into Possibility 2: Similar to the above but Sky-Water instead of light water. Cloud imagery would quickly come to mind, from an aesthetic standpoint, which would fit nicely into the mechanisms of the magic (Nimbus Dragon Slayer). This would continue the mystical theme as above but with the added bonus of increasing the plausibility of the spirit-dragon mentor dynamic as that could be seen as in essence a passive, Highly specific, Milky Way spell, which is canon established sky magic. The substantial downside is that an admin already has a sky-water dual element dragon slayer, which drastically dampens the creativity points, as well as the credibility of Eden Dragon Slaying being its own distinct element. Finally Possibility 3: Having to cut out all the latter cool ideas, a fusion of Metal-Water would in essence be a Mercury Dragon Slayer, which is the most admin friendly concept of "special Water" that still qualifies as an element, which it Literally is. The Liquid water would work well with the building of constructs that I had in mind. Hopefully I could still use the Eden dragon slaying name, which allows for such a pleasant transition between regular and second gen dragon slayer magics which would really honor the spirit of making him second generation. The character could consume most metals (not necessarily just mercury), but a special caviat would have to be included that excludes the toxicity of Mercury toward humans, because I'm not trying to be a Poison Dragon Slayer. Downsides include a lack of originality, as this slayer would essentially be compared to Gajeel, in which he would be the much softer of the two, and that isn't very exciting. Recap: Essentially the last piece of the Eden Slayer puzzle is finding an admin-friendly (so, not stupid and consumable) element that would be commonplace in the garden of eden. The Eden imagery opens the door for cosmic-themed mechanisms/elements (cus Heaven's=space), Holy-themed elements (cus Eden = Gods = Holy), and the finally Life-themed imagery (water and nature cus Garden of Life and such). Longshots: Eden Dragon Slaying as the manipulation of Aura. (I can dream, can't I? @Per)
