As a wielder of a Azure Grimoire Ragna is capable of manipulating darkness in the form of the various body parts of the Black Beast as well as absorb the life force of an opponent's to replenish his own.
Blood Cain [A]
Ragna is able to use his Azure Grimoire to greatly enhance his physical abilities and strengthens his Drive, although it wears down his own life force during its duration even to the point of the Grimoire being able to nearly corrupt his entire person. It has a limiter in the form of Blood Cain Idea in which prevents these effects and can be lifted as a last resort.
Magic Formula [C]
A fusion between science and sorcery created during the Great Dark War against the Dark Beast. It is used as an energy source and can be apply in numerous ways.
Battle Continuation [B]
The ability to fight even when sustaining life threatening injuries. Ragna has been stab and mutilated on different occasions and nothing short of beheading will stop him from continuing on his objectives.
Noble Phantasm
The Azure Grimoire [A] [Anti-Unit Self]
Despite being called a grimoire, its form is not that of a book, but rather a high-density mass of concentrated magic element similar to the Black Beast. It has no fix form and in the case of Ragna it took the shape of his right arm. It provides most of Ragna's abilities and is made of the remains of the Dark Beast, which is fused with the Idea Engine. Should Ragna lose control of the Grimoire he risk becoming the Black Beast himself.
Aramasa: The Paradoxical Blade [C] [Anti-Unit]
The weapon itself it's just a normal sword with a large blade that it's capable of changing into a scythe. It is said that the weapon belonged to the legendary warrior Bloodedge, who sacrificed himself to stop the Black Beast for one year. The truth is that the weapon itself belonged to Ragna who was sent to the past to fight the Black Beast then left the weapon behind so that he would acquire it in the future. How he regain his weapon when he return to the present is a complete mystery.
Bio
A powerful criminal who has a burning hatred for the world government the Novus Orbis Librarium. Due to this hatred, Ragna used his knowledge of combat, the weapon Aramasa, and the powerful Azure Grimoire to destroy military branches around the world, possibly killing hundreds every time. The Novus Orbis Librarium labelled him an SS-class criminal and issued him the largest bounty in recorded history, P$90,000,000, which, according to Jin, is enough to buy a small country.
AN: Salutations my friends, sorry for the hiatus but unfortunately my laptop died for real this time and I'm currently writing the chapters on my phone. So be warned, potential grammar errors could appear more frequently.
So, BlazBlue, quite frankly it is a series that I know next to nothing about except for what I read while researching Ragna and in my opinion is confusing, a given considering I never played the game and only gave it a glance every now and again. Because of this I will withhold my critique of the series until I know more.
Anyway, I hope for those who are reading this know that despite the current crisis happening around us do not lose hope and to stay safe and healthy for we will get through this. Have a good day and until next time.
