Skill Set Name: Crescent Moon Style; Auric Variant
Elemental Property: Light/Lightning
Stat Specialization: Offense Style
Skill Set Information:The Crescent Moon style was taught to Auric as less of a means of attacking, but as a way to improve oneself and to protect others. It combines both physical and magical elements into a set of ideologies one must base their life around. To fully attain the power and strength this style grants, Auric must live his life around certain ideals and pursue them with all his power.
Auric doesn't always seem the type, likely due to the age he came to accept these ideals, but he respects all life to a fault and that is the core of this style. The art of preserving life in all its forms, and keeping the balance of the world protected, attuned to all life around them, is the life of a crescent moon swordsman. They can be hesitant to act in situations that would require taking life. They can question whether or not they should draw their sword, not always willing to meaninglessly take a life.
However when one can push past these doubts and fight at their fullest does a Crescent Moon user truly shine. Silent upon drawing their blade, they mourn the life they are about to take.
Most users of the Crescent Moon style are less physical fighters and more style fighters, aiming to take down a foe with quick perception and grace. Auric however, is a bit of a target with a natural glow that is a bit of a tell, so he has made small variations to the actual mechanics. Being able to fly gives him some advantages a user of this style wouldn't have, as well as his natural attunement to the light.
Passives:Dance of the Crescent Moon;
Crescent Moon Style User's are always in a state of Zen, where they are capable of reading the Flow of Nature and people around them, predicting their movements and allowing them to easily weave between strikes and even be ready for the follow-up, giving the impression that they can carelessly weave through the battlefield, almost like they are dancing.
It is not a sin;
It is normal for all Crescent Moons to hesitate, to doubt if what they are doing for the greater good. Auric's sheer attunement to the light that came with his blessing doesn't make this any easier to get past. However once he does, the effect is a warrior that is fully committed to the life he must take and this comes with massive power.

Agility of the Blessed;
As Auric has the ability of Flight, he gains mobility past that of a normal humans. He can dodge with all the grace and speed of a eagle, maneuvering past attacks with such accuracy that it seems as if he has angelic guidance.
[Crescent Moon Style practitioners can direct small harmless gusts of wind to give them a boost in agility, either letting them boost themselves higher in a jump, redirect their momentum in the air, control their fall to prevent damage, among other supplementary effects.]
Skill Set Weakness: Cursed by Doubt and Hesitation;
Crescent Moon practitioners are very susceptible to Illusions and Magic that assaults the mind, they are by nature, doubtful, hesitant and very open spiritually, which gives Psychic's, Illusionists, and others who work the assault against the minds and spirits of others a distinct advantage over the Crescent Moon Swordsmen.
-15 Defense against Illusions and Similar magic
A Bright Target;
After learning this style, its very ideologies have become ingrained in Aurics soul. So much so that his Holy Aura can never be fully turned off, giving him away quite easily as well as making him that much more noticeable in a crowd.
Light load; Crescent Moon User's never wear thick leather or full plates of armor, if they do they lost most of their ability to fight properly and the Legendary Agility Passive will be nulled until it is removed.
