The fighting style is used through quick, stealthy, and rapid strikes with dual short swords or dual weapons. During his creation of this fighting style, he had to kill a good number of his opponents before he fully realized how to take people down without killing them. This kind of development brought Magnus closer to death and the underworld itself. The sort of connection with death brings about a stealthy-like appearance to his fighting style.

Due to this time of constant elimination or removal of one sense tends to enhance the others, this will allow Magnus to fight without using his sight. This way of fighting is established through reading sound, touch, smell, and the other senses to seek and find where the opponent is and where to attack.

This stance allows for Magnus to quickly draw either of his short swords with ease to allow for easier counters or parries on the opponents strikes or attacks.

This kind of development brought Magnus closer to death and the underworld itself. The sort of connection with death brings about an ability to enshroud oneself and channel the shadowy energy of the Underworld.
Toggled and Passive Abilities:
- Blessings of The Underworld: Due to his connection with death and the grim reaper, Magnus has developed a sort of energy that feels like the chilly atmosphere of the Underworld or Hell for a better term. This allows Magnus to enshroud himself, channel shadowy energy into his blades, and give off a Underworld Chill to anyone who witnesses his fighting style. The Blessing of the Underworld gives Magnus this sort of aura that is hard to look past if you haven't met him at his best outside of battle. [ You may not do this. Sorry. Rewrite the fighting style without the whole shadowy energy stuff please. ]
- Assault Stances (Toggled Abilities){+20% to Attack & -20% to Willpower}: By simply adjusting his stances to a more aggressive one, Magnus can boost his offensive capabilities by a small margin. This stance allows for Magnus to make the most of his truly damaging attacks with some added force. Going into this stance releases an aura of shadowy black energy around Magnus until it is deactivated to activate the other Toggled ability.
- Quickdraw Stances (Toggled Abilities){+20% to Reflex & -20% to Attack}: This another stance that Magnus created during his time in the streets of Notice. This stance allows for Magnus to quickly draw either of his short swords with ease to allow for easier counters or parries on the opponents strikes or attacks. While using this stance, Magnus will normally resheath his swords after each technique and attack, which makes it a bit more predictable compared to other fighting styles

Once blocked, Magnus will quickly and elegantly slice through the torso, or try to, of the person the is attacks.

Flavour: The Shadow Titan’s Cleave is the pinnacle of assassin-based strikes that Magnus has developed. After mastering the art of finding the best places to strike to induce bleeding, Magnus takes all of his strength, places it into one or both of his blades, and uses it to strike or cleave through an opponents armor or limbs. Much like his Shadow strike technique, Magnus normally likes to use this technique for surprise attack, attacks to the blind spot, or even in the cover of darkness.

Debuffs: -75% to Reflex
Flavour: The curse of the underworld technique is a special technique used to strike various points on the body to make it harder for the opponent to move around easily. By striking one, two, or three of these points, Magnus can easily render an opponent immoblie or at least cause moving to be a great deal harder than they could be. The attacks themselves do not cause any damage, but the opponent will be lead to think that the attacks deal killer blows to those pressure points to prevent them from moving ever again.

Flavour: After disappearing into the shadows, Magnus will reappear and strike countless enemies before him in a matter of seconds. Each strike will seemingly be hidden within the shadows or the blindspots within the opponents field of vision, Magnus will seemingly reappear back in the same position he left from while the targets are all attack simotaneously. Dubbing this technique, The assassin’s Multi-strike was to give some honor or nod towards the assassin techniques and killing methods.

Debuffs: -30% to Attack
Flavour: This is another multi-target technique that was created and developed by Magnus in his time after he left Notice. This technique isn’t like his other techniques in the sense that they don't cause bleeding or a decrease in mobility. This technique is specifically created to make the opponent body feel heavier to the point that they are hitting weaker than they were before. The technique uses the blade edge of the short swords and it uses the blunt edge, or back side, of the swords as well. Magnus will strike each target two or three times in a very quick succession to target various places on the body that would cause a “dead leg” feeling through the limbs that are hit by the attack.
