Personality:

When it comes to fighting she does not shy away. If there is a good enough reason for it she will be merciless as she can be. Wielding both blade and magic she will do what is within her power and ability to shut down the threat at hand. As mentioned before she is a normal person. Enjoying both lazy days and bone breaking training days.

IV. MAGIC
Magic: Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic (雷の滅竜魔法 Kaminari no Metsuryū Mahō)
Caster or Holder: Castor
Description:Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic (雷の滅竜魔法 Kaminari no Metsuryū Mahō) is a Caster Magic, Lost Magic and a type of Dragon Slayer Magic that utilizes lightning. A type of Magic which allows the user to incorporate the element of lightning into their body, gaining exclusive characteristics that are commonly associated with Lightning Dragons. The user is capable of producing lightning from their body and of manipulating it to attack their opponents. This Magic’s spells seem to possess an incredibly high voltage, being particularly destructive, and the electricity of which they’re composed of seems capable of momentarily paralyzing foes, making it easier for the user to take them out.
Strengths:
Lightning Dragon Slaying Magic is one of the faster magics in terms of travel time and projectiles. Falling Second to none in most cases and closely affiliated to that of light. It also boasts great destructive capabilities to the body and as well as surroundings. All Magic spells from this type of magic has the ability to temporarily paralyze their foes the duration and strength of it depending on the rank of the spell.
In terms of elemental affinity it holds superiority over many. A primary example is water, water being an excellent conductor and the damage being amplified. Same follows suit for Metal. The user is able to produce lightning from their body to utilize is devastating attacks or arrays of spells to aid them in battle. Like all dragon slayers they are able to absorb lightning from out sources that were not produced from themselves.
Durability against Lightning based magic. Being a body of lightning, Lightning magic is near useless, this however does not mean perfect immunity. God Slayer magic and Demon Slayer magic is a different story.
Weaknesses:
Lightning Slayer Magic has a few core weaknesses. Due it's rapid speed it is difficult to change the projectile once the user is set on a target. This means allies can be in danger when in line of fire. In addition if foes dodge it the same bolt of lightning can be difficult to turn around and attack the opponent.
Metal Rods specifically can be used to redirect lightning. Though those who wield the Rod should be aware of the dangers of this possibility. Like all other dragon slayers they cannot consume their own lightning.
Lightning and electricity in general is a rare substance unless the storms are willing. Hence Consuming electricity or lightning is not as easy like Wind Slayer, Metal Slayer, Fire Slayer and Water Slayers.
V. HISTORY
History:
Born in the far reaches of the Eastern Lands. Kari Akisame was born to an unknown parentage. Adopted as long as memory dictates by a mythical being known only in legends. A beast of great power, commanding the skies at will to rain down upon mortals brilliant bolts of lightning. Some had called it a mythical god Zeus or Odin, some called it an ancient beast Kirin. However in the world of Magic it was better known as the Lightning Dragon, Lahkrana.
Raised by this very dragon as her own child Kari grew up as a dragon herself. How to speak the old langauge of dragons, lore of magic, Hidden knowledge as much as her small mind would understand. Lahkrana treated Kari as if she was of same blood. Raised with care yet with a firm hand. What was wrong was wrong, what was right was right. She was taught Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic as soon as she was able. However at the young age of 9 Kari needed the touch of a human.
She would one day need to assimilate back into the world of humans. Hence Kari was blessed with another extended family. A human wife in Shrined temple used to worship the mysterious Kirin. The Father a warrior born trained in the art of the sword. Kari in secret enjoyed a semi privelleged life as a human with two parents who were able to bestow upon her a vast knowledge in mannerism and the warrior arts and in her own time the magical knowledge and power of a Dragon Slayer.
She trained in both sword and spell. Slowly growing stronger, brighter and more accustomed to using Magic. Many grew to love her, however her secret of being a dragon Slayer was a well kept secret. The East being less tolerant about magic, associating magic with either witchery or temple girls. Both held their own strange stigma.
However at the age of 16 a traumatizing experience came over her. Wanting to excell and obtain a higher power Kari had forcefully tried to increase her strength. Unknowingly this was known as dragon force borrowing the strength of a real Dragon. This was a mistake she should have done such in the safety of Lahkrana however she did so in the privacy of her own home.
Lightning surged from her body, the skies raging as unstable currents ravaged the areas around her. The event killed her human parents. Mind you she loved her foster foster parents as well. The event devastated her. The locals suspected some witchery or magic about her. To escape the stigma she lived hidden with Lahkrana. This event had caused her to be paralyzed for near 6 months. However with the Dragon's sudden and strange disappearance she was forced to live on her own.
At 16 to escape everything she travelled west. Taking her knowledge of dragon slaying magic and the Katana. She travelled far, further than any of her small eastern tribesmen had taken her. Wandering for a few years in the western planes until it brought her to Magnolia. There she performed many solo quests, living on her own travelling and staying in taverns. However the loneliness got to her and eventually joined the guild Fairy Tail. There she worked for few more years till today.
21, Fairy Tail knows she is a Dragon Slayer. However she keeps secret from where she is from only that she used to travel the world. She remains currently as a lower level Mage within Fairy Tail and the Mage community. The fact that she is a Dragon Slayer isn;t a wide known fact and those who do know tend not to really care.
