White Dragon Slayer Magic (白の滅竜魔法 *Haku no Metsuryū Mahō*): A form of Dragon Slayer Magic which allowed Sting to transform the physiology of his body into that of the White Dragon, allowing him to generate and manipulate light to his every whim. The White Dragon Slayer's element was described as being holy, with Sting remarking that his opponents suffer the "judgement of the holy white". Sting as a White Dragon Slayer had the ability to consume anything White as stated by Sting himself. As a Third Generation Dragon Slayer, Sting derived his Magic from two sources: the teachings of the Dragon named Weisslogia and from the Dragon Lacrima implanted in his body.

* White Dragon's Roar (白竜の咆哮 *Hakuryū no Hōkō*): Sting's signature *Dragon's Roar* took the form of a, comparatively, small laser with effects not unlike it; it sliced the ground it stroke, creating a linear explosion in its wake. Through unknown means Sting was shown using a different *Dragon's Roar*, this one consisting of a powerful, larger whirlwind which pierced through several buildings with ease, leaving a clean, round hole in each of them.
	+ White Dragon's Holy Breath (白竜のホーリーブレス *Hakuryū no Hōrī Buresu*): A seemingly stronger, more potent version of his **White Dragon's Roar**, Sting jumped over his target and released a large, extremely powerful burst of light from his mouth; such spell was capable of creating a large, almost cavernous hole in the ground in the process.
* White Drive (ホワイト・ドライブ *Howaito Doraibu*): A technique which amplified Sting's Magic abilities, completely cloaking his body with an aura of bright light, allowing him to better employ his Dragon Slayer Magic whilst at the same time seemingly enhancing his physical prowess to a degree, particularly his speed. According to Sting himself, White Drive harnesses *"the power that kills Dragons"*. This state either granted Sting the ability to perform new spells or made them stronger, as the Sabertooth Mage had been shown employing several skills only while in said Drive. This technique was very similar to that used by Sting's fellow Dragon Slayer and former partner Rogue Cheney's similarly named Shadow Drive.
* White Dragon's Iron Fist (白竜の鉄拳 *Hakuryū no Tekken*): Sting engulfed one of his fists in light and punched the target, causing sheer blunt damage.
* White Dragon's Claw (白竜の爪 *Hakuryū no Tsume*): A close range spell which was described as being a *"holy attack"*, Sting performed White Dragon's Claw by generating a sphere of light around one of his hands and then firing it at the target. If said blast connected with the body of the target, it tore through clothing and blackened the struck area, leaving a light, complex marking on it (a so-called "*Stigma*") which, according to Sting, took away the body's movement, thereby leaving the foe open to the White Dragon Slayer's subsequent attack. It was unknown how much said spell limited the target's freedom but it would seem one of its weaknesses was fire. Stigma is a supernatural mark of faith found in Christianity, living up to the holy theme of White Dragon Slayer Magic.
* Holy Ray (ホーリーレイ *Hōrī Rei*): Sting first joined the open palms of his hands together, with all the fingers on one hand in contact with the corresponding ones on the other hand, and then separates his palms while keeping the fingers in contact through their tips. Light was generated in the hollow part between his hands, expanding from the holes between Sting's fingers. At this point, the White Dragon Slayer completely separated his hands, extending them horizontally at his body's sides as the light he generated took the form of a large sphere, from which a number of white rays were fired towards the target(s), leaving their starting point in a curved trajectory to strike them. Foes were thus bombarded by a barrage of beams which inflict heavy damage, striking them in rapid succession. Sting was able to use this spell against foes while they were in midair as well.
* White Shadow Dragon's Rough Silk (白影竜の絁 *Hakueiryū no Ashiginu*): A spell that Sting was able to use together with Rogue, synchronizing his White Dragon Slayer Magic with Rogue's Shadow counterpart. The two Dragon Slayers released thin beams of light and shadow from their fingertips respectively, which pierced through their target and heavily damaged them.
* **Dragon Slayer's Secret Art** (滅竜奥義 *Metsuryū Ōgi*):
	+ Holy Nova (ホーリーノヴァ *Hōrī Nova*): A spell which Sting described as "*the best of his best*", and which he initiated by bending his right arm backwards, the fist clenched, and extending frontwards a mildly bent left arm with tiny streaks of light gathering before the outstretched fingers from the surrounding area. He then rushed towards the target and punched them with his right hand, which was now covered in a very massive, horizontal column of light. This spell created a large, impressive explosion on contact, which left Sting unharmed, but was seemingly lethal to the target. The true power of the White Dragon Slayer's most powerful spell, however, remained unknown, however it was hinted that Holy Nova possessed highly destructive capabilities.

Dragon Force (ドラゴンフォース(竜の力) *Doragon Fōsu*): Being a product of the Third Generation of Dragon Slayers, Sting was capable of entering the most advanced state a Dragon Slayer can achieve at his will, without the need to consume strong, external sources of Magic. Such a feat greatly surprised several individuals who have intimate knowledge of Dragon Slayer Magic. Upon entering this state, Sting's body became much more akin to an actual White Dragon's, with his whole body becoming cloaked in an aura of light even more brilliant than that generated by White Drive, and with pure white scales appearing to cover the outer edges of his face and extending down from the side of his neck to the rest of his body. These were shown to be more and more uniform as they got farther from the central portion of his body, which instead bore several scattered, distinct scales, elongated and placed diagonally.

Unison Raid (ユニゾンレイド(合体魔法) *Yunizon Reido*): An ability which allows two Mages to unite their Magic into a single, combined, stronger attack. Sting has shown himself to be able to combine his Magic with Rogue's to create powerful spells.

* Holy Shadow Dragon's Flash Fang (聖影竜閃牙 *Seieiryū Senga*): Sting and Rogue combined their respective Dragon Slayer Magics together for a more powerful and destructive attack. By releasing a large amount of shadows and white light from their fists, the Twin Dragon Slayers merged their Magic and released it as a combined burst of the aforementioned light and shadows.

Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Sting was shown to actively engage his opponents in melee combat, using the light generated by his Dragon Slayer Magic to enhance the power of his melee blows. When punching under the effects of White Drive, the White Dragon Slayer was capable of literally bombarding his foes with a barrage of shining blasts at close range, leaving even seasoned martial artists open to attacks.

After making an agreement with Weisslogia's soul, which had lived inside his body ever since Sting crossed the Eclipse Gate as a child, Sting gained the ability to enter his Dragon Form, and eventually exit, which enhanced several of his already existing abilities. This form, upon Sting returning to his original human form, left some physical side effects on his body such as his blond hair gaining a few white streaks and, eventually when he let it grow, white stubble.

* **Flight**: As a Dragon, Sting possessed the ability to fly, using his large wings to travel great distances, maneuver high up in the air, and perform aerial assaults on those below him.
* **Enhanced Durability**: Sting, while a Dragon, was capable of taking on Acnologia also in his Dragon Form, albeit with some difficulty and not without the help of his fellow Dragon Slayers also transformed.
* **Enhanced Strength**: Given his immense size, Sting, in Dragon form, was easily capable of reducing a substantially sized area to rubble by simply landing on top of it.

**Enhanced Strength**: Sting was shown to have great physical strength.

**Immense Durability**: Sting was been shown to possess high levels of physical endurance, being able to simultaneously confront opponents with equal strength with his former partner Rogue, being struck by powerful melee blows, all the while showing moderate signs of weariness and still having the strength to use several of his strongest spells afterward. Sting has easily shrugged off being hit in the stomach by opponents and after taking several beatings, he continued to fight.

**Enhanced Speed:** Sting was able to move at a considerably high speed, having been capable of grabbing arrows in midair even while seated. His speed is such, that he was able to blitz opponents before they could even react.

**Enhanced Smell**: Sting possessed an incredible sense of smell, a trait shared by all Dragon Slayers. The only known weak point of Sting's enhanced smell would be that he could not smell his own child, Rin due to her both sharing a similar scent to his own and being half-artificial who are known to not possess a scent of their own.
