Slayer

A magic slayer could be considered a more focused but less varied form of elementalist. Unlike an elementalist which can learn 2 elements, a magic slayer may only learn 1. However, they have a much more powerful connection to this element. They become nearly immune to it and may eat the element for nourishment and to quickly heal and regain energy in a fight. However they cannot eat the element if they created it. Magic slayer magic cannot simply be learned on your own, and requires a teacher of some form. This teacher will in most cases be something greatly connected to the element, example being: some sort of God or spirit connected to the element or maybe some sort of ancient magic creature who has lived long enough to form a connection to a certain element. While the base class is simply called magic slayer, different teachers will result in different names. Someone taught by an ancient sea serphant who has a connection to the sea it lives in will learn Water Serpent slayer magic. While someone learning from something like a Phoenix would be called a fire phoenix slayer.

Cont.

The name is mostly for show, though the element produced by the slayer may differ in appearance depending on the type of slayer magic, though this is pretty much just a visual difference. (Like one type of fire slayer may have orange flames, another's may be blue, while another's may be black) Also, in most cases the teacher will inject some of its blood into the person being taught, this is to help the player's body help adapt to the element, however in return their appearance may change slightly depending on the animal. (Going back to the sea serpent example, someone using magic taught by it who was given its blood would gain serpent like traits while using it, such as scales and slit eyes.) Also, a recommended stunt for slayer magic is: while a magic slayer's body is made to eat their specific element, they may eat another type of magic element or something with magic in it (like an enchanted item) to temporarily gain a buff, but once this is over they will become extremely tired and no longer able to fight or maybe even unconscious.
