Carla (Fairy Tail)

The ''Fairy Tail'' manga and anime series features an extensive cast of characters created by Hiro Mashima. The series takes place primarily in the Kingdom of Fiore, a country in the fictional universe Earth-land, where several of its residents perform various forms of magic. Those who practice magic as a profession, referred to as , join guilds where they share information and do paid jobs for clients. The series' storyline follows a group of wizards from the rambunctious titular guild.

The main protagonists are Natsu Dragneel, a wizard with the powers of a dragon, and Lucy Heartfilia, a celestial wizard who joins the Fairy Tail guild. In the early part of the series, they form a team including: Happy, a flying cat and best friend of Natsu; Gray Fullbuster, an ice wizard; and Erza Scarlet, a knight who specializes in using various magic weapons and armors. Throughout the series, Lucy and Natsu interact with and befriend other wizards and guilds in Fiore. They also encounter various antagonists from illegal "dark" guilds, and Zeref, an ancient wizard who is the series' main antagonist.

When creating the series, Mashima was influenced by Akira Toriyama, J.R.R. Tolkien and Yudetamago and based the guild on a local bar. He also used people as references in designing other characters. The characters have been well-received overall.

Creation and conception

When Hiro Mashima was creating ''Fairy Tail'', he cited Akira Toriyama, J. R. R. Tolkien, and Yudetamago as influences on his work. He based the titular guild on a local bar he was visiting at the time. He based Natsu Dragneel on his early years as a junior high school student. Natsu's motion sickness is based on one of his friends, who gets sick when they take taxis together. He has said that his father's death influenced the relationship between Natsu and the dragon Igneel.

Del Rey Manga, the original North American publisher of ''Fairy Tail'', explained that Mashima provided them with official English spellings for "just about all" the characters in the series. When Funimation Entertainment acquired the license to release the ''Fairy Tail'' anime in North America, Mashima's worried about actor Todd Haberkorn's voice since the Natsu character did a lot of yelling throughout the series. Tyler Walker, the voice director for Funimation's adaptation, revealed that there was a "''Fairy Tail'' tea" that the voice actors drank after each recording session to protect their voices. Walker likens ''Fairy Tail'' to the ''Scooby-Doo'' franchise: "it's got a core group of characters, with one talking animal, sometimes two...they travel, it's episodic...you know, we've seen this kind of thing before with the core group that's affiliated in some way going through adventure after adventure".''Fairy Tail'' episode 1 commentary with Tyler Walker, Todd Haberkorn, Cherami Leigh and Tia Ballard at 13:52-14:11

Main Fairy Tail members

The protagonists of the series are members of the titular guild, , where they comprise what their fellow members regard to be the guild's most powerful team due to their high magical strength and teamwork. It initially consists of Lucy Heartfilia, Natsu Dragneel, and Happy at the suggestion of the celestial spirit Plue shortly after Lucy's induction into the guild, and later expands to include Gray Fullbuster and Erza Scarlet after several shared missions together. Wendy Marvell and Carla are also considered to be members of the team.

Following Igneel's disappearance on July 7, X777, Natsu searches for the dragon and is subsequently inducted into Fairy Tail, where he eventually becomes one of the guild's most destructive members known as . Eventually, it is revealed that Natsu is a demon known as "Etherious Natsu Dragneel" (E.N.D.) who was sent 400 years from the past by his brother, Zeref Dragneel, as part of a larger conspiracy to kill both Zeref and the evil dragon Acnologia.

Lucy Heartfilia

:
is the series' main female protagonist. She is the seventeen-year-old debutante of the wealthy Heartfilia family who embarks on a journey to join Fairy Tail, which she fulfills after Natsu Dragneel rescues her from a slave trader posing as a Fairy Tail member under his own moniker of "Salamander". She performs paid guild missions together with Natsu and Happy to fund her rented house in Magnolia, and is often exasperated when her teammates inadvertently reduce their reward due to their destructive antics. She is also an aspiring novelist who eventually publishes her debut novel based on her experiences at the guild at the end of the series. As a , she uses magical keys that summon celestial spirits, collecting ten out of twelve rare golden keys that summon the powerful zodiac spirits as the series progresses.

Using a magic ability called , Happy can transform into a winged cat and fly at great speeds. He uses this form to carry Natsu in the air, and is the only one Natsu rides without succumbing to motion sickness. Before the beginning of the series, Happy is hatched from an egg found by Natsu and Lisanna Strauss, who name him "Happy" after his birth quells an argument the rest of the guild were having. Eventually, Happy discovers his origins as an Exceed from Edolas, where he is separated from his parents and before birth as part of their queen's plan to evacuate 100 Exceed children to Earth-land before their kingdom's destruction.

Gray Fullbuster

:
is an eighteen-year-old ice wizard who is a brothers in arms with Natsu because of their same personalities and magical elements. Orphaned by the Etherious at age eight, Gray is tutored by Ur to use , which instantly produces ice in the form of any weapon or object he imagines; during his training to withstand cold temperatures, he also gains the habit of subconsciously stripping his clothes, something that Mashima based on a personal habit of his own. He joins Fairy Tail after Ur sacrifices herself to save his life when he recklessly attempts to kill Deliora. Later in the series, Gray inherits from his reanimated father, Silver, becoming a to carry out Silver's will to destroy E.N.D. The corruptive influence of his demonic powers compels Gray to irrationally fight Natsu upon discovering his identity as E.N.D., but he ultimately uses his powers to help strip Natsu of his identity as an Etherious so he may live normally as a human.

Erza Scarlet

:
is a nineteen-year-old S-Class swordswoman of Fairy Tail who is nicknamed for her notoriety as the guild's most powerful female wizard, referencing the Fairy Queen from ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. She uses magic called to instantaneously —exchange and equip—various weapons and armors that alter her already tremendous strength and magic ability. Left at infancy by her mother, Irene Belserion, Erza is enslaved at the Tower of Heaven befriends Jellal Fernandes, who gives her the surname "Scarlet" after her red hair. She first activates her magic power while leading a slave revolt, only to be betrayed by a brainwashed Jellal and forced to escape from the tower alone. Her experiences lead her to join Fairy Tail and become a serious-minded but compassionate disciplinarian who temporarily becomes the guild's seventh master in Makarov Dreyar's absence when the guild is reformed one year after Tartaros's demise. Over the course of ''Fairy Tail'', Erza grows fond of her friends during their adventures.

The character is named after Eru from Mashima's one-shot manga ''Fairy Tale'', which served as a pilot for ''Fairy Tail''. Mashima initially designed her to only shed tears from one eye due to a defect with her artificial eye, but he eventually abandoned this aspect after accidentally drawing some scenes where Erza has tears flowing from both eyes. He also said that he often forgets what Erza's armor looks like, and changes the design every time she appears.

Wendy Marvell

:
is a young Dragon Slayer adopted and trained by the dragon to perform , which draws power from clean air to heal others' injuries and ailments, and can temporarily relieve Dragon Slayers' motion sickness. Together with Natsu, she is part of a group of Dragon Slayers sent 400 years from the past through Eclipse as children to combat Acnologia. When the group is scattered upon arrival, Wendy travels the world with Mystogan until he leaves her at the guild, where she comes to be known as the and . Seven years later, Wendy represents her guild in an alliance with Fairy Tail, Blue Pegasus, and Lamia Scale against the dark guild Oración Seis. After the Seis are defeated, Wendy discovers her guild's true nature as an illusion created by their master, the elderly spirit , to care for her; she is then left to join Fairy Tail after her old guild vanishes. Wendy comes to admire Natsu as an older brother figure, inspiring her to use her magic's combative functions, which include manipulating wind and augmenting her and her allies' abilities through enchantment.

Mashima designed Wendy to be a 12-year-old girl after one of his staff members commented that young girls "just don't appear" in the series, and noted the character's popularity among his associates. His original concept for her was that of a "Water Dragon" based on the Japanese name for , which Mashima derived her name from.

Carla

:
Carla is a white-furred six-year-old Exceed who acts as Wendy Marvell's partner and caretaker; her name is in Japanese, spelled "Charle" in Funimation subtitles, which was changed to "Carla" in countries where readers would interpret "Charles" as a male name. Years before the series' present, she is evacuated to Earth-land as an egg along with Happy and 98 other unborn Exceed when her mother, the Exceed queen Chagot, has a premonition of their kingdom's destruction; to prevent a panic, the queen conceals the evacuation as a mission to kill Dragon Slayers. Carla is born with the unconscious power of precognition inherited from her mother, which causes her to misinterpret visions of Chagot's ruse as her real mission; despite this, Carla decides to protect Wendy. Although annoyed with Happy's obliviousness to their mission, Carla reconsiders after he ignores the Exceeds' orders. Eventually, after realizing her precognitive ability, Carla practices to consciously control her visions and, during her one-year membership with Lamia Scale, assumes a humanoid form to further hone her powers.

Secondary Fairy Tail members

Guild masters

Mavis Vermillion

:
is the first and founding master of Fairy Tail, nicknamed the as a child prodigy with vast military and illusory skill. Mavis also has knowledge of the , a trinity of spells that can only be used by members of her guild; besides Fairy Law, these spells include , an attack that eradicates any enemy, and , an impenetrable force field that suspends time for those inside. She is later revealed to possess the same immortality and life-stealing curse as series antagonist Zeref Dragneel, her former friend and lover, which also halts her outward physical maturity when she is first afflicted at thirteen years of age, but retains her physiology as an adult woman in later life.

Raised on Sirius Island by a harsh guild master who takes her shoes away, Mavis develops the habit of walking barefoot. At age 13, she encounters a group of treasure hunters who later become her co-founders of Fairy Tail. While accompanying them on a journey to recover a stolen artifact, Mavis befriends a wandering Zeref, who teaches her a forbidden prototype of Fairy Law that triggers her curse when she performs the spell to save her friends' lives. Eleven years later, Mavis continues to empathize with Zeref and falls in love with him, causing Zeref's curse to unwittingly send her into a deathlike state following a brief period of intimacy that results in the conception of a son, August. Her body is preserved in a lacrima crystal beneath Fairy Tail's guild hall, where it produces a source of limitless magic known as , codenamed , with Precht Gaebolg building a false grave on Sirius Island to hide this secret. Mavis consequently appears as an astral projection that can only be seen and heard by those marked with Fairy Tail's emblem. She is eventually revived by the destruction of her stasis crystal to personally confront Zeref, and lifts their mutual curse by accepting her love for him despite also hating him, which enables both of their deaths. One year later, a girl who shares Mavis's appearance named surfaces and encounters a young man named Alios, who resembles Zeref.

Mavis's background was included in the very first concepts of the series. Mashima conceived her as an elderly male character, later changing her into a young girl after being informed that "Mavis" was a female name. He also expanded the character's involvement in the story because of her "immense popularity", remarking that he had "no idea" she would become so popular. Mashima said that many readers were surprised by Mavis's relationship with Zeref, which he had decided on "quite a long time ago" before revealing it. He intended to draw a detailed kissing scene between the two characters, but amidst concerns regarding Mavis's appearance, he decided that depicting the scene in a silhouette would be "more beautiful and effective".

Precht Gaebolg

:
, primarily known under the alias of , is one of Fairy Tail's co-founders and the master of Grimoire Heart. His first name is based on that of a literary scholar, while his surname comes from the mythical Irish spear Gáe Bolg. Succeeding Mavis Vermillion as second guild master upon her deathlike state caused by Zeref, Precht becomes engrossed in black magic when his attempts to resurrect her inadvertently produce Fairy Heart, which spurs him on a quest to uncover the source of magic power. Upon tracing the source back to Zeref, he becomes obsessed with obtaining this singularity for himself and founds Grimoire Heart, assuming that he must awaken Zeref's dormant power to achieve his goal. Hades practices powerful spells such as , a dark version of Makarov Dreyar's Fairy Law, and the artificial beneath his eyepatch, which gives him access to even greater dark powers developed by Zeref when opened. His signature magic allows him to produce chains from his hands to grapple and throw opponents. Using a mechanical "heart" on board his guild's airship that is based on his knowledge of Fairy Heart, Hades overpowers Fairy Tail's attacks until the heart is destroyed by Happy and Carla. He is spared by Makarov upon his defeat, only to be killed by Zeref shortly afterward for summoning Acnologia through his actions.

Makarov Dreyar

:
is the son of guild co-founder , and serves as the third and incumbent master of the Fairy Tail guild throughout the series; Mashima came up with the character's name because he wanted it to sound Russian. He is an old, diminutive man who is registered as one of the , a title given to those recognized by the Magic Council for possessing the highest magical power and skill of any wizard on the continent of Ishgal. He has knowledge of numerous forms of magic, including the ability to vastly increase his size using the magic . He is a grandfatherly figure who looks upon his guild's members as his own children, although he is beleaguered by the problems they cause him with the council. A running gag in the series is Makarov's inability to secure a permanent successor, resulting in him holding the position of sixth and eighth guild master after Gildarts Clive and Erza Scarlet, respectively. He eventually sacrifices his life to annihilate the Alvarez Empire's army using his ultimate technique, , which reduces the caster's lifespan to eliminate anyone they consider to be an enemy without harming their allies, although Mavis Vermillion later resurrects him as a paraplegic upon her own death.

S-Class wizards

Fairy Tail's are the guild's highest-ranking members who are recognized by the master for their strength, skill, and conviction. Erza Scarlet, one of the protagonists, holds the S-Class rank at the start of the series. Mashima has stated that the "S" stands for words such as "super", "special", or the Japanese phrase .

Mirajane Strauss

:
is the guild's barmaid and administrator, who also works as a pin-up girl for the fictional magazine. Gaining infamy as , Mirajane is the oldest of three siblings who use a variety of the transformation-based magic . Her variety is called , which allows her to assume the forms and powers of various demons she has defeated. Before the beginning of the series, Mirajane resents her magic after enduring constant ridicule, but reconsiders when her siblings learn their own Takeover varieties to comfort her. After her sister, Lisanna, disappears when she is 18 years old, she develops a cheerful personality while posing as a "pretty naive girl". Because of the trauma she suffered from that incident, Mirajane also restricts her Takeover magic to only mimic others' physical appearances and voices, and retires from active S-Class work. She eventually regains her Satan Soul variety to rescue her brother, Elfman, during the Battle of Fairy Tail two years later. Mashima named the character after the username of a friend he met in an online game. He also settled on her family's backstory "a very long time" before including it in the story, saying that "the chance to tell it just never seemed right", and that he was happy when the opportunity arose.

Mystogan

:
is a masked Fairy Tail wizard who hails from the parallel universe of Edolas as the counterpart of Jellal Fernandes. Unable to use magic on his own, Mystogan employs staves infused with magic power for many effects, such as to create illusions and draw magic circles to attack his opponents. Before revealing his physical appearance, Mystogan usually casts sleeping spells on his guildmates whenever he visits, in order to prevent them from uncovering his identity. He originally arrives in Earth-land to close inter-dimensional anima portals used by Faust, his father and Edolas's king, to siphon magic energy from Earth-land and convert it into lacrima crystals. Unable to prevent Magnolia from being absorbed along with Fairy Tail, he returns to Edolas and restores the crystallized city by sending it through another portal after his allies prevent Faust from ramming it into the Exceed kingdom. He then reverses the portals' effects to return all of Earth-land's stolen magic, expecting to be sentenced to death for this by his childhood friend Panther Lily to quell the ensuing panic. When Natsu Dragneel takes responsibility instead, Mystogan earns his people's support by defeating him in a mock battle, and remains in Edolas to replace his father as king.

Laxus Dreyar

:
is Makarov Dreyar's grandson and heir to the position of guild master. The character's name is derived from the word " lux", a unit of measurement for light. He is an expert lightning wizard capable of generating and transforming into bolts of electricity. He is also a second generation Dragon Slayer whose father, Ivan Dreyar, implanted a lacrima crystal within him as a child that enables him to use . As a teenager, Laxus feels overshadowed by his grandfather and eventually rebels following his father's expulsion from the guild, growing into a strength supremacist at the start of the series. When Fairy Tail's reputation began to falter after the war with Phantom Lord, Laxus organized an intra-guild battle royal called the "Battle of Fairy Tail" in a bid to seize control of the guild from Makarov and reestablish its strength by rooting out the guild's "weaklings". After his plans fail, Makarov expels him for endangering his guildmates, although he leaves on friendlier terms with them. He later joins Fairy Tail's battle against Hades on Sirius Island, and is reinstated into the guild by Gildarts Clive during the latter's brief period as guild master.

Gildarts Clive

:
is an S-Class wizard who is regarded by Fairy Tail to be their most powerful member. He can break any object or spell he touches down into blocks using the magic , which requires Magnolia's streets to reconfigure into a single, narrow path towards the guild to prevent him from stumbling into buildings by mistake. Because he embarks on missions that have never been completed for up to a century, he only visits the guild on rare occasions for short periods of time; during one failed mission, he loses his left limbs and several internal organs after getting mauled by Acnologia. He is also the widowed father of Cana Alberona, but is unaware of his relationship with his daughter due to his deceased wife Cornelia divorcing him and giving birth while he is away on a six-year mission. Gildarts discovers the truth from Cana twelve years later after Fairy Tail's battle with Grimoire Heart on Sirius Island, and subsequently begins doting on her in a comical fashion. After returning from the island, Gildarts is elected by Makarov as the guild's fifth master after Macao Conbolt, but resigns from the position almost immediately to leave on another journey. He returns one year later to participate in the war against the Alvarez Empire, remaining at the guild in the series epilogue. Mashima described the character as "a dumb-looking old guy", and considered his first appearance to be "a really big event" within the story.

Other members

Cana Alberona

:
is a teenage alcoholic woman who drinks entire barrels of liquor at a time, consuming 30% of the guild's alcohol. Her name is derived from the tarot term "arcana".

As the most senior guild member of Lucy Heartfilia's generation, Cana joins Fairy Tail at the age of six after her mother's death to search for her father, Gildarts Clive. Unable to reveal her relationship to him because of her own timidity and his seldom presence, Cana motivates herself to become an S-Class wizard, but fails four qualification tests in a row and falls into depression. During her fifth test on Sirius Island twelve years later, Cana abandons her guildmates in Grimoire Heart's attack to complete the trial of finding Mavis Vermillion's grave, inadvertently endangering her test partner, Lucy. Upon realizing her own treachery, Cana rejects her chance for promotion in favor of saving her friends, and eventually reveals herself to Gildarts as his daughter after the trial's cancellation. Later, Cana becomes proficient at using the Fairy Glitter spell occasionally provided to her by Mavis, which she uses to revive her physical body by destroying her astral projection with the spell.

After Karen is killed by Oración Seis member Angel after Loke refuses to accompany her on a mission, the Celestial Spirit King permanently exiles Loke to the human world, where he relies on magic-infused finger rings besides Regulus to perform magic. When Loke is on the verge of dying three years later, Lucy Heartfilia convinces the king to let him return to the spirit world. Loke later serves as one of Lucy's contracted spirits, openly expressing romantic feelings for her after having avoided her out of guilt for Karen's death, and occasionally summoning himself through his own power to aid her and the rest of Fairy Tail. Loke is also the leader of the twelve zodiacs as stated by himself and Gray.

Elfman Strauss

:
is the younger brother of Mirajane and older brother of Lisanna. Mashima developed his name to sound "somewhat cute". He is a hypermasculine, muscle-brained wizard who spouts nonsensical speeches about manhood, but is also kindhearted and emotionally sensitive. He employs the Takeover magic to assimilate the powers and forms of monsters, although his transformations are limited to his right arm using the ability due to his lack of proficiency. His first attempt at achieving a full-body transformation at age 13 causes him to go berserk and seemingly kill Lisanna in the process, resulting in him adopting his masculine personality to cope with his guilt. Two years later, Elfman gains control over his Beast Soul form to rescue Mirajane from Phantom Lord, after which he employs his full strength more frequently.

Levy McGarden

:
is a member of , a three-wizard team that also includes Jet and Droy. She becomes one of Lucy Heartfilia's friends over their shared love of books, encouraging Lucy to let her be the first to read her novel. Using the magic , Levy transforms written words into three-dimensional objects that take on the attributes of whatever is written. She is also proficient at translating and decoding ancient languages and runic magic. Gajeel Redfox frightens Levy after he wounds her and her team during his membership in Phantom Lord, leading to a war between their guilds. She initially avoids Gajeel when he joins Fairy Tail, but reconsiders after he defends her from a disgruntled Laxus Dreyar. She subsequently begins to develop romantic feelings for Gajeel, with the two becoming temporary officers of the Magic Council's custody and arrest unit during Fairy Tail's one-year dissolution, and later committing themselves to each other while battling the Alvarez Empire. In the series epilogue, Levy is overheard by Lucy and Wendy Marvell telling Gajeel something about a baby. Mashima designed Levy to be a background character in the series, but grew to "really ikeher". He subsequently expanded her role in response to her rise in popularity, which he said defied his expectations.

Gajeel Redfox

:
is a Dragon Slayer whose allows him to transform his limbs into iron weapons, cover his skin with impenetrable iron scales, breathe gusts of wind containing metal shrapnel, and consume iron objects for nourishment. Transported 400 years from the past through Eclipse as a child in the surviving dragons' plan to kill Acnologia, Gajeel is separated from his fellow Dragon Slayers and forgets his childhood besides being raised by the dragon . He resents Metalicana for his disappearance, becoming a delinquent member of Phantom Lord nicknamed , whose act of defacing Fairy Tail's guildhall and assaulting Levy McGarden's team instigates a war between the two guilds. After Phantom Lord's dissolution, Gajeel reluctantly accepts Makarov Dreyar's offer of membership into Fairy Tail to atone for his actions, gaining the guild's trust and acceptance after helping Natsu Dragneel defeat Laxus Dreyar in the Battle of Fairy Tail. He subsequently develops protective feelings for Levy, eventually confessing his love for her while being nearly killed during the war with the Alvarez Empire. In the series epilogue, Gajeel has an implied conversation with Levy about a baby.

Gajeel was the first of several Dragon Slayers besides Natsu to be introduced in the series, an idea Mashima considered upon creating the "Dragon Slayer" concept, creating him to be an "extremely scary" rival for Natsu. The character's name is derived from the word and the onomatopoeia for eating, . Similar to Natsu, Gajeel's age is listed as "unknown", which became a subject of questions from readers following a scene where he and Natsu are caught in a runic trap designed to contain those over 80 years old, to which Mashima asserted that this was not their actual age. Gajeel's backstory with Magic Council member Belno was a "simplified" version of what Mashima had initially planned, with the author's original intent being that Belno would be Gajeel's catalyst for joining Fairy Tail before changing it to Makarov.

Juvia Lockser

:
, spelled "Loxar" in the Funimation dub, is a blue-haired wizard originating from the Element 4, Phantom Lord's S-Class team that specializes in magic related to the four classical elements . Her magic, , allows her to manipulate and turn her body into water at will, rendering her immune to physical damage, and gaining her notoriety as . She also speaks in third person; But in the English Dub, she speaks in first person. As a child, she is ridiculed as a " rain woman" because of the downpours she has caused. Her participation in the guilds' war over Lucy Heartfilia leads to an encounter with Gray Fullbuster. She duels with Gray, but loses and the rain around her stops for the first time in her life. After Phantom Lord dissolves, Juvia joins Fairy Tail in pursuit of Gray's affections, and considers anyone he interacts with to be a romantic rival. Eventually, Juvia becomes more cheerful and changes her appearance several times to suit her new personality, although her feelings for Gray remain unrequited for some time. After rescuing Gray at the cost of her own life, she is healed by Wendy Marvell. Mashima does not remember the origins of her name, but really loves it.

Porlyusica

:
The human counterpart of Grandeeney from Edolas, is Fairy Tail's elderly medicinal advisor who lives in the forest on the outskirts of Magnolia. She remedies all sorts of ailments and injuries, but resents humans and often forces visitors out of her house unless they are in need of help. She is a longtime friend of Makarov Dreyar, whom she nurses to health when he is drained of his magic, and later when he falls deathly ill during Laxus Dreyar's rebellion. Seven years after Sirius Island's disappearance, she meets Wendy Marvell and instructs her on advanced Sky Dragon Slayer Magic spells relayed to her by Grandeeney; she fails to teach them to Wendy before her disappearance.

Lisanna Strauss

:
is the younger sister of Mirajane and older sister of Elfman who can shapeshift into different animals at will with her Takeover variety. She is one of Natsu Dragneel's childhood friends and also love interest who helps him hatch Happy's egg.

Two years later, she is forced to return to Earth-land when Mystogan reverses Anima's effects, reuniting Lisanna with her siblings. Mashima conceived the character's name because he felt the suffix "-anna" made it sound cute.

Raijin Tribe

The , renamed the "Thunder Legion" in Funimation's anime dub, is a trio of wizards who act as Laxus Dreyar's personal bodyguards and followers. They were created by Mashima after he "suddenly" thought the series' story arc focusing on Laxus.

He is characterized by his idolization of Laxus, and initially distances himself from the rest of his guild. He imposes the rules of the Battle of Fairy Tail with his Jutsu-Shiki, and reluctantly carries out Laxus' orders to kill their guildmates. This leads him to question Laxus' morality. After being overpowered by Mirajane Strauss' reawakened Satan Soul form, Fried temporarily shaves his long hair as a form of atonement for his misdeeds. His name is derived from the Japanese phrase , reflecting the character's initial concept of attacking with archaic words.

Using the magic sword , it can extend up to four times his size; after this sword is destroyed battling Gajeel, he replaces it with the similar . that he steals from a member of Grimiore Heart. He duels with Gajeel Redfox while defending the lacrima crystal created from the residents of Magnolia as part of Faust's plan to exterminate the Exceed with it, but has a change of heart after seeing the Exceed gather to push the crystal away alongside Fairy Tail. After being sent to Earth-land through the reversed anima portal, he joins Fairy Tail as Gajeel's partner. In Earth-land, Lily's body shrinks to his species' typical small size, though he assumes his original form for limited periods of time in addition to using his Aera ability.

Seven years after growing fond of the guild and allying himself with them against Grimoire Heart, however, Mest is informed by Makarov Dreyar of his true identity as a longtime Fairy Tail member who altered his own memories in a haphazard attempt to extract information on the Alvarez Empire from the council. Upon remembering his past, Mest leaves the council's service and fully rejoins Fairy Tail. Before unveiling Mest's role as an undercover council agent, Mashima considered making the character a legitimate Fairy Tail member, as well as a member of Grimoire Heart or Tartaros. Mashima later said that the reveal of Mest's legitimate membership was planned long in advance, but he never had the opportunity to foreshadow it, receiving complaints from readers who felt the character was retconned.

Antagonists

Zeref Dragneel

:
is the central antagonist of ''Fairy Tail'' who is mentioned early in the series as the most evil wizard in history called the . He makes his first appearance at the end of volume 24, although he is not identified until the following volume. Eventually, it is revealed that Zeref is Natsu Dragneel's centuries-old elder brother, made immortal and unaging by a curse called the , which randomly kills everything around him whenever he cherishes the value of life. Years before the series' present, Ankhselam curses Zeref for trying to resurrect an infant Natsu, who is earlier killed with the rest of their family in a dragon attack. Becoming suicidal, Zeref eventually succeeds in reincarnating Natsu's dead infant body as a so-called demon dubbed "Etherious Natsu Dragneel" (E.N.D.) in the hope that Natsu would be capable of killing him. He then places Natsu under Igneel's tutelage and sends them 400 years forward to a magic-rich era through the time machine Eclipse in order to properly cultivate his powers. He eventually befriends Mavis Vermillion 300 years later, which develops into romance after she acquires the same curse until he inadvertently steals her life.

Living in solitude on Sirius Island, Zeref becomes disillusioned by the atrocities committed by Grimoire Heart in his supposed name as a mass-murdering embodiment of evil, leading him to spend the next seven years contemplating the eradication of humanity. One year later, he resurfaces as the emperor of the Alvarez Empire, a military nation he has constructed over a century under the alias of to counter the threat of Acnologia. Zeref leads a large-scale invasion of Ishgal in order to obtain Mavis's limitless power of Fairy Heart with which to perform , a spell that would enable him to relive his own life and undo the actions caused by himself and Acnologia, while also erasing the existence of countless people in the present. Zeref succeeds in absorbing Fairy Heart after Natsu's failure to kill him, but Natsu incapacitates him after negating his attacks with his own fire magic, after Mavis took the E.N.D. book away from Zeref and give the book to Lucy, Grey and Happy. Zeref then dies after Mavis rekindles her love for him, allowing their mutual curse to kill them both. By the end of ''Fairy Tail'', a young man identical in appearance to Zeref named appears and encounters Mio, a girl who resembles Mavis.

Mashima had not given the character a name upon his first physical appearance in the story, and considered several possible choices before deciding to make him the previously unseen character Zeref; he intentionally avoided providing any hints to his identity beforehand, wanting it to be a "complete surprise" to the readers. Aiming to avoid portraying Zeref as "a typical bad guy", Mashima cultivated and inserted numerous elements into the character that made him "really highly complex". Mashima stated that Zeref "has really become a popular character" after the revelation of his identity, also calling him a "really dark" character who would "never make a silly face."

Phantom Lord

is an official wizard's guild of Fiore led by Jose Porla. Jose boasts his guild's superior numbers and magical prowess, which includes a mechanized guildhall armed with the destructive magic cannon , and which transforms into a mecha capable of casting , a forbidden spell powered by magic of the four classical elements. Other members of Phantom include Gajeel Redfox and the , a quartet of wizards equivalent to Fairy Tail's S-Class wizards who each specialize in magic based on one of the four elements. Lucy Heartfilia's father Jude has Phantom retrieve her after she runs away from home. However, Jose is concerned about Fairy Tail's plans to monopolize the Heartfilia family's fortune and plots to hold Lucy for ransom. Deciding to demonstrate Phantom's supremacy to Fairy Tail, Jose sends Gajeel to destroy their guildhall and injure Levy McGarden's team, provoking them into an inter-guild war forbidden by the Magic Council.

It is originally built using slave labor by a cult of evil wizards for the purpose of resurrecting Zeref. Among the slaves forced to build the tower are Erza Scarlet and Jellal Fernandes. Jellal takes over construction of the tower while brainwashed by Ultear Milkovich, who poses as Zeref's spirit. Jellal tricks his friends into thinking that Erza betrayed them to save herself from the tower, but they turn on him after realizing his deception. Following Jellal's defeat, Erza's remaining friends decline her invitation to join Fairy Tail and go their separate ways.

Also serving Jellal at the tower are , a trio of assassins from the guild. Mashima introduced them "at the last moment" after he "started feeling really sorry for rza's childhood friends while planning their battles with Erza's group. Each member's is named after a different type of bird.

Balam Alliance

The , translated as "Baram Alliance" in the English anime dub, is a triad of Fiore's most powerful dark guilds— Oración Seis, Grimoire Heart, and Tartaros—which control all other dark guilds in the series except the independent Raven Tail. The organization is described as a "non-aggression pact" whose guilds act independently from one another in spite of their designation as an "alliance". After all three guilds are defeated by Fairy Tail and their allies, the alliance is considered to have dissolved.

Oración Seis

is a guild consisting of six members led by Brain that are considered to be no less dangerous for their command of multiple other dark guilds. Brain's followers are slaves from the Tower of Heaven whom Brain "adopts" to aid his plan to annihilate the world's official guilds using the morality-switching magic . Seven years after their arrest, the five are released from prison along with Brain, whom they leave for dead before Jellal convinces them to join Crime Sorcière.

The guild shares its name with a group of antagonists from ''Rave Master''; Mashima originally used the name as a placeholder, which he ultimately kept by the release deadline. Mashima decided on the members' background as slaves early in their development, but struggled to incorporate it into the story. Mashima specified Cobra as one of the characters whose popularity defied his expectations, although he could not determine any reason why.

Grimoire Heart

is the most powerful guild of the Balam Alliance. Led by Hades, the guild assumes Zeref to be in a weakened "sleeping" state and aims to "awaken" him, which they erroneously believe would bring about an apocalyptic world where wizards may thrive while non-magic users—who make up over 90% of Earth-land's population—would be annihilated. They travel the world on their airship and commit countless atrocities to produce "keys" necessary to their goal, resulting in a war with Fairy Tail upon their discovery of Zeref on Sirius Island. Grimoire Heart ultimately disbands after Zeref kills Hades and condemns the guild for provoking his rage and summoning Acnologia through their actions.

The guild's sub-commander is . Beneath Blue Note are the , an elite group of wizards who are trained by Hades in the use of , ancient spells that are noted as being lost to history because of their enormous power and terrible side effects when misused. Besides their leader Ultear Milkovich and her surrogate daughter, Merudy, the Seven Kin consist of Zancrow, Zoldio, Rustyrose, Kain Hikaru, Azuma. Other guild members include Kawazu and Yomazu.

Mashima revealed that Kain Hikaru's name is shared with one of his staff members' nicknames, while Rustyrose's name is derived from a cocktail, and Azuma's is based on television actor Azuma Mikihisa; he was "surprised" that he could not remember the origin of Zancrow's name. Mashima particularly pushed for Kain Hikaru's popularity among young readers, but was informed the character was disliked because "he isn't cool".

Tartaros

is a guild consisting mostly of Etherious demons summoned from books written by Zeref. E.N.D., Zeref's ultimate demon and Natsu Dragneel's alter ego, is falsely purported to be the guild's master; the guild is secretly commanded by Mard Geer Tartaros. Their base is located inside the floating headquarters, which transforms into the monster by Mard Geer's power. The guild's aim is to unseal E.N.D.'s soul from his book and exterminate humanity by detonating Face, the Magic Council's cross-continental pulse bomb network designed to neutralize Ishgal's magic, while having no effect on the demons' ability to use , a counterpart to magic that draws purely from negative emotions. Mard Geer commands the elite led by the avian demon Kyōka. The other Demon Gates include Jackal, Franmalth, Torafuzar, Ezel, Seilah, Keyes, Tempester, and Silver Fullbuster. After Tartaros is defeated by Fairy Tail, the surviving demons eventually die together with Zeref as part of a measure devised by the dark wizard.

Mashima stated that Kyōka was a character he "really njoyed, and that she would do "a bunch of cruel things". He was surprised by Jackal's popularity among readers despite the character being "an awful guy", and added that he had difficulty writing Jackal's "half-baked Osaka-area accent". The story arc between Silver and Gray was something Mashima had determined before the former's appearance, yet Mashima had to change large portions of their planned battle scene upon noticing a "vital" setup mistake.

Acnologia

:
is one of the series' overarching antagonists, known as the for driving the dragon race to near extinction in Earth-land's historic . Originally a human Dragon Slayer who resents dragons for slaughtering his family and other innocents, he transforms into an immortal black dragon as a side effect of his magic; despite this, he is capable of alternating between his human and "dragonified" forms at will. Acnologia possesses no elemental Dragon Slayer trait, which grants him immunity to all forms of magic. Overtaken by bloodlust and considering himself to be invincible, he gains notoriety for the next four centuries as a harbinger of destruction who disregards all life, speaking only to those he acknowledges as his enemies. After nearly obliterating Sirius Island following Fairy Tail's battle with Grimoire Heart, and later losing an arm in a battle with Igneel that results in the latter's death, Acnologia participates in the war between Ishgal and the Alvarez Empire, aiming to achieve the complete extinction of dragons by killing the surviving Dragon Slayers. When he is lured by Blue Pegasus and #Heartfilia family, Anna Heartfilia into a "space between time", a void dimension in which they attempt to permanently trap him, Acnologia eats his way out and attains godlike power; this act also separates his human soul from his physical dragon body, which ravages Earth-land while the former imprisons the other Dragon Slayers in the void with himself to maintain his power. After Lucy Heartfilia seals his body within Fairy Sphere, Natsu Dragneel kills him by destroying his immobilized soul. Mashima regretted not giving more time to develop the character in the manga, envisioning a "deeper setting" that he felt unable to include from the protagonists' perspective, which he hoped he would have the opportunity to explore "at some point".

Alvarez Empire

The is a massive military nation led by Zeref that is located in the continent of Alakitasia west of Ishgal. Comprising the strength of 730 guilds over Ishgal's 500, the empire's main objective is to forcibly obtain Mavis Vermillion's power of Fairy Heart to use against Acnologia. Zeref's personal guards, the , possess powers that surpass Ishgal's supreme Wizard Saint, the eight-element Dragon Slayer God Serena, who defects to join the group.

Mashima considered the Spriggan 12 to be the strongest characters in the series, describing their abilities as "cheating magic" that other authors would generally avoid using to preserve the framework of the story. While determining the number of members, Mashima argued against his editor's suggestion of using five or six members as opposed to twelve, citing "a bit of a secret reason for it". He designed Jacob after an actor he "really liked", and bemoaned that the character's role was smaller than he had initially planned. Mashima also commented on the popularity of the 12's female members, particularly Brandish, while considering Jacob to be his personal favorite. Irene's role as the "mother of Dragon Slayers" was determined by Mashima "well before" her debut, but he did not decide on her relationship with Erza until after the former's confrontation with Acnologia, which he noted created holes in the story. Following the conclusion of the series, Mashima specified Brandish as the character he would miss drawing the most.

Ultear joins forces with Grimoire Heart to modify her magic with Zeref's power to Time travel#Backward time travel, travel to the past and exact revenge on Ur. Ultear eventually gains infamy as the leader of the guild's Seven Kin of Purgatory and adopts Merudy. As part of Grimoire Heart's plan, she manipulates Jellal Fernandes into becoming the dark wizard's servant, feigning loyalty to him as a member of the Magic Council. Later, Ultear and Merudy capture Zeref on Sirius Island, and the two attempt to flee with the dark wizard. Eventually, Ultear realizes the truth about her mother while dueling with Gray Fullbuster, prompting her to help Fairy Tail defeat her master Hades and leave Grimoire Heart with Merudy. Seven years later, when #Rogue Cheney, Rogue Cheney's future self uses Eclipse to orchestrate a dragon attack, Ultear contemplates killing the present Rogue. However, she casts the forbidden time spell , which reverses time and allows her allies to foresee the dragons' moves within this critical time frame, preventing the deaths of several wizards. The spell also rapidly ages Ultear into an elderly woman, and she leaves Jellal and Merudy to assume that she has been killed in the attack.

She participates in her guild's hunt for Fairy Tail's members on Sirius Island, making Gray Fullbuster her primary target, blaming him for hurting Ultear through Ur's death. After dueling #Juvia Lockser, Juvia Lockser to a stalemate, Merudy threatens suicide to kill Gray through her sensory link, but Juvia convinces her to stay alive for Ultear's sake. Merudy later learns of Ultear's role in her hometown's destruction from her guildmate Zancrow, After rescuing Ultear from attempting suicide, Merudy leaves Grimoire Heart with her. Mashima designed Merudy to be the weakest of the Seven Kin, and was surprised to find the character had become "extremely popular" with the series's younger readers. He wrote that the character's name "just sort of came to [him]"; he later realized that it was the same as a character from "an old RPG [he] used to play".

They are governed by an all-powerful spirit called the , and are each named after and based on one of the 88 modern constellations. They are immortal and possess various magic powers and abilities, but lose their power when they remain outside their realm for extended periods of time, which is fatal to them.

Numerous spirits are summoned using store-bought silver keys, including , a breed of "dog" spirits kept by celestial wizards as pets; Lucy keeps a Nikora that she names , who is identical to the List of Rave Master characters#Plue, character of the same name from Hiro Mashima's earlier work, ''Rave Master''.

Edolas

is a parallel universe that exists separately from Earth-land, the universe in which ''Fairy Tail'' takes place. It is inhabited by counterparts of Earth-land's residents, each with opposing personalities or traits such as age and species. It is also the home of several characters in the series, including Jellal Fernandes's counterpart Mystogan, and Exceed such as Happy and Carla. As opposed to Earth-land, magic is a limited resource in Edolas and cannot be used as a natural ability by humans, who instead use items combined with magic-infused lacrima crystals; the Earth-land wizards are similarly only able to perform magic in Edolas after taking pills provided by Mystogan for this purpose.

The kingdom is ruled by King , Mystogan's father, who replenishes his world's magic using inter-dimensional portals that absorb magic power from Earth-land and crystallize it as lacrima. A version of Fairy Tail exists in Edolas as a dark guild because of Faust's abolition of wizard guilds. Among its members are , Natsu Dragneel's timid counterpart and the guild's vehicle expert; , a boyish and intimidating version of Lucy Heartfilia; , an overdressed version of Gray Fullbuster who harbors unrequited feelings for #Juvia Lockser, Juvia Lockser's counterpart; and a teenage version of Wendy Marvell. They are hunted by Edolas's royal military, which includes Panther Lily, commander of the first division; the second division's , Erza Scarlet's ruthless counterpart who wields a transforming spear based on List of Rave Master characters#Haru Glory, Haru Glory's Ten Commandments sword from ''Rave Master''; the third division's , who controls Faust's indoor amusement park attractions with a baton; the fourth division's , whose sword can turn anything into liquid; chief of staff , who carries various magical potions; and , Byro's young, barefoot aide. After the Earth-land wizards prevent Faust from committing genocide against the Exceed race using a giant lacrima formed from Magnolia's residents, battling the dragon-shaped mecha manned by the king, Mystogan restores the city and reverses the anima's effects to return all of the stolen magic, permanently depleting Edolas's supply.

Exceed

The are a race of anthropomorphic cat-like beings from Edolas ruled by Queen , who has precognition. Residing on a floating island called , they are the only residents of Edolas capable of possessing magic as a natural ability, which they use to produce wings and fly with the spell Aera. Because of this, they are seen as angels by the humans of Edolas, with Chagot revered as a god who passes judgment on humans. Most of the Exceed population resent humans, casting out any Exceed who sympathize with them or ignore their queen's orders. Despite this, they are actually a weak race with a history of being abused by humans, and their divinity is a ruse devised by Chagot's court to protect their people. Before their births, Happy and Carla's eggs are sent to Earth-land along with 98 other unborn Exceed under the pretense of hunting and killing Dragon Slayers, which is later revealed to be a cover for a discreet evacuation effort after Chagot foresees Extalia's eventual destruction caused by Edolas's loss of magic. The entire Exceed race is transported to Earth-land after Mystogan reverses Edolas's anima and, realizing their mistake in judging humans, decide to live in harmony with them whilst searching for the missing Exceed children.

Others

Igneel

:
, the , is a dragon and #Natsu Dragneel, Natsu Dragneel's adoptive father. He raises Natsu from infancy, teaching him language, culture, and the ability to use Fire Dragon Slayer Magic. When Natsu witnesses Igneel's disappearance on July 7, X777, he begins a search for the dragon. His search results in him encountering several other Dragon Slayers who have similarly lost their own dragon guardians on the same date. Fourteen years later, when Acnologia arrives at the battle between Fairy Tail and Tartaros, Igneel is revealed to have magically sealed himself inside Natsu's body all along, as are the other dragons with their respective children, for the triple purpose of preventing them from turning into dragons as a side effect of their Dragon Slayer Magic, waiting to personally eliminate Acnologia after the Dragon Slayers are fully inoculated, and prolonging their own lives since they have lost their souls to Acnologia. However, Igneel is brutally killed by Acnologia and ascends back to a higher plane of existence with his fellow dragons to watch over mankind. He also passes down the "Fire Dragon King Mode" to Natsu Dragneel after his death.

Ur

:
is Ultear Milkovich's mother and Gray Fullbuster and #Lyon Vastia, Lyon Vastia's teacher. She is a renowned Ice Make wizard whose power is said to be worthy of the Ten Wizard Saints'. Before meeting Gray and Lyon, Ur brings her sickly daughter as a child to a magic research facility to save her life, only to later be told that Ultear has died while the doctors perform unethical, secret experiments on her. She then takes on Lyon and Gray as her pupils in an effort to move on. When Gray attempts to kill the Etherious Deliora, Ur sacrifices herself to save him by performing the forbidden spell , transforming her body into ice to permanently freeze the demon. She remains alive in this form until Lyon melts her with the Moon Drip spell to release Deliora, essentially killing her as she drifts out to sea as water. Later, Ultear falls into the sea while dueling with Gray, causing her to experience her mother's memories. She realizes the truth of what transpired at the research facility, and that her assumption that Ur had abandoned her there is wrong.

Jude Heartfilia

:
A wealthy business tycoon and president of the esteemed Heartfilia Concern (business), Konzern, is Lucy Heartfilia's father. Like Lucy, his name is based on a Beatles song - in this case "Hey Jude". After Layla's death, Jude's relationship with Lucy becomes fractured, which eventually leads to Lucy running away from home. Years later, he recruits Phantom Lord to bring her home for a business opportunity. However, his actions inadvertently involve Fairy Tail in a guild war to protect her, resulting in Lucy breaking ties with her father. Shortly afterward, Jude becomes bankrupt and loses his estate, and takes up work at a merchant's guild, mending his relationship with Lucy. He dies toward the end of Lucy's seven-year disappearance, but demonstrates his love and faith in his daughter's well-being by leaving her seven years worth of rent money and birthday gifts.

Reception

The characters of ''Fairy Tail'' have received both praise and criticism from publications dedicated to anime, manga, and other media.

Carl Kimlinger of Anime News Network describes the characters' styles as having a "strong 'bite me' vibe" and compared the visual style to that of ''One Piece'' author Eiichiro Oda. In his review of the second volume, Kimlinger said that Cancer's fighting style "is a kick".

In reviewing the first DVD/Blu-ray volume of ''Fairy Tail'', Carlo Santos of Anime News Network says "with a lead character as pumped-up as Natsu, it's hard not to get caught up in his energy". Santos also praises Happy, citing his character as an "entertaining diversion, proving that animal sidekicks can be fun to listen to and not just a necessary annoyance".

In his reviews of the Blu-ray/DVDs, Neil Lumbard of DVD Talk mentions the "strong likeability factor of each of the main characters".

Anime News Network writer Rebecca Silverman, in her review of the 20th volume, said, "Mashima still manages to get some action and laughs in as well, including one especially funny subplot involving Gajeel. Wendy takes over from Lucy as the primary female of the series for most of this volume, and how you feel about that will probably depend upon which character you prefer." Silverman also thought that readers "may have had mixed feelings about Jellal's return earlier in this arc, but the bond between him and Erza has been underlying their scenes for most of their page time together [in chapters 162 through 164]." However, she said that "for the romantics in the audience, Jellal is still a criminal, and the government wants him. And so they come for him," and pointed out that "Erza fans and detractors will find it deepens her character a little while still finding it sad."
