Dragon Slayer Magic

Dragon Slayer Magic (滅竜魔法 Metsuryū Mahō) is a form of Lost Magic used by Dragon Slayers.

Description
Dragon Slayer Magic (滅竜魔法 Metsuryū Mahō) is a branch of Lost Magic which allows its users to transform the physiology of their body into those of a dragon. As a result of this, those with Dragon Slayer abilities are able to change their body to their own element in both offensive and defensive styles. They can consume external sources of their natural element to replenish their own energy. They are also naturally immune to the effects of their own element that came from both their own person and to those from other sources, but must consume it through their mouths if they are to actually absorb it into their bodies.

Dragon Force is the final stage of Dragon Slayer Magic, though the exact conditions to invoke it are unknown. When Dragon Force is achieved, the Dragon Slayer's skin becomes scaly, similar to a dragon, and strength, speed, and magical abilities are enhanced, improving their combat capability significantly. Natsu Dragneel has achieved this at least twice; once after eating Etherion-infused Lacrima and again after consuming Jellal's Golden Flame of Rebuke

There are two ways to learn Dragon Slayer Magic. The First Generation Dragon Slayers learn from Dragons and the Second Generation Dragon Slayers implant Lacrima crystals into themselves. There are also hybrids of the Old-Style and New-Generation Dragon known as Third Generation Dragon Slayers, who learned from Dragons and had Lacrima implanted into them.
