This is the page for all the other characters of Fairy Tail who aren't part of any official or dark guild.


Magic Council[]

A major ruling body in the world of magic, the Council is what keeps all the wizard guilds in Fiore in check. For this reason, many of its members have an intense hatred of Fairy Tail for the damages they cause. As the series progresses, the council is manipulated into helping Jellal complete the Tower of Heaven without them knowing, which proves costly for the council's reputation and leads the council to replace most of its members.


  • Berserk Button: Fairy Tail in general.
  • Kill Sat: They own one for their more dangerous enemies.
  • Miniature Senior Citizens: A few of them.
  • Oh Crap: Their reaction to the possibility of Zeref's revival.
  • The Omniscient Council of Vagueness: A little with the first Council, but definitely with the new one.
  • Out-Gambitted: Their plan to stop Zeref's resurrection fails horribly.
    • It turns out that Zeref was never dead in the first place.
  • Ungrateful Bastards: One of the offenses the new council puts against Fairy Tail is that they stopped Oracion Seis without their consent. Never mind the fact that their forces didn't get there till after FT destroyed Nirvana after it was activated.
    • Granted, had Fairy Tail not been involved Wendy would not have volunteered. Had Wendy not gone to face the Oracion Seis they would not have made her heal Jellal, and had that not happened the Oracion Seis would still have been searching for Nirvana by the time the council arrived. Still, it's not like the council had any way to know all that.

Siegrain[]

Siegrain 5988

One of the few members of the Magic Council who puts up with Fairy Tail's destructive antics. He is registered as one of the Ten Saint Wizards. "Siegrain" is actually an alias Jellal uses to infiltrate and manipulate the council into helping him complete the Tower of Heaven.

Ultear Milkovich[]

Shitou Yajima[]

Yajima 2171

The sixth seat on the council. He is an old friend of Makarov's, and thus one of the few who stick up for Fairy Tail on the council. He retires from the council and opens a restaurant after the other members are tricked by Jellal into helping him complete the Tower of Heaven.

Org[]

The second seat on the council, and a candidate for Chairman before being manipulated and shamed by Jellal killed his chances. He is the only member of the old council to remain on the new one. He has an intense dislike for Fairy Tail, but gradually rethinks his opinion of them with every heroic act the guild takes.

Lahar[]

RahalLahar 8342

Head of the 4th Custody Enforcement Unit of the reformed Magic Council. Whenever wizards who prove to be a major threat to the peace are present, he is usually there to arrest them.

Cquote2

Dranbalt / Mest Gryder[]

Head of a division of the Rune Knights, the Magic Council's military force. He infiltrates the guild to dig up dirt on Fairy Tail to disband the guild by using memory-altering magic to disguise himself as Mystogan's disciple.

Cquote1

 Voiced by: Shuuhei Sakuguchi (JP)

Cquote2

  • Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny
  • Becoming the Mask: Was very disturbed by the fact that the Council would most likely use their Kill Sat again, this time to eliminate what have been called the three biggest threats: Zeref, Grimoire Heart, and...Fairy Tail. And lo and behold, he finally breaks from the council and goes back to Fairy Tail to warn them of the danger.
    • Debatable: His intention was to disband Fairy Tail. He never wanted to kill any of them.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: Later revealed to be an act. He's actually more like an Only Sane Man.
  • Good Scars, Evil Scars
  • Fake Memories: He rewrites the memories of every member of Fairy Tail present during the S-class trail, including Makarov's.
  • Heel Face Turn: When he hears about yet another threat to Fairy Tail on the island, that does it; he steals the crystal ball before Lahar can make the call to the council, and goes to Fairy Tail to offer egress from the island.
  • The Mole: He pretends to be a member of Fairy Tail to dig up dirt on it.
  • Only Sane Man: For both Fairy Tail, opposing their reckless charge on Hades and recommending a sensible retreat, and for the council by rejecting the possibility of obliterating Fairy Tail.
  • Pet the Dog: Saving Wendy from Azuma's attack. This goes a long way, considering he was approaching Memetic Molester status in regards to her. There's also his objections to the possibility of the Council firing Etherion on the island the S-Class Trial is held.
  • Red Herring: We are first led to believe that he is a newly-introduced member of Fairy Tail, and then given heavy hinting that he's a dark wizard working for Grimoire Heart to revive Zeref. It turns out, though, that he's just a member of the Magic Council who now has plans to get dirt on Fairy Tail, expose that they're hiding Zeref, and get rid of Grimoire Heart at the same time. Still bad for our protagonists though...
    • Word of God says that he really was considering making him a member of either Fairy Tail, Grimoire Heart, or even Tartaros before deciding to make him a council agent.
  • Remember the New Guy?: His debut in the manga is the same chapter, nay, the same page his candidacy was announced. It turns out that he really is a new guy, and he's just using magic to make everyone in the guild "remember" him.
  • Teleportation: One of his magics.
  • Tomato Surprise
  • X Marks the Hero: Or not.

Gran Doma[]

The new chairman of the reformed Magic Council. He runs the council with an iron fist, and has absolutely no tolerance for Fairy Tail.

Cquote1

 Voiced by: Hiroshi Shirokuma (JP)

Cquote2


Crime Sorcière (SPOILERS)[]

An independent wizard guild that's neither official nor dark, making them perfect for taking down dark guilds under the Magic Council's radar following the time skip. It is made up of only three members, each of them a former villain who wants to atone for their actions.


Jellal Fernandes[]

TV Tropes - Jellal 7699

A childhood friend of Erza's. Once a slave in the Tower of Heaven, he was corrupted by Ultear into becoming a servant of Zeref. Acting as a member of the Magic Council, he sets in motion a plot to revive the black wizard, but is defeated by Natsu and Erza. He returns without his memories after being revived by Oracion Seis, but decides to atone for his past actions and dedicates himself to suppressing evil wizards wherever he finds them.

Cquote1

 Voiced by: Daisuke Namikawa (JP), Robert McCollum (EN), Terri Doty (EN - young)

Cquote2

  • Actor Allusion: Azuma mentions that he walks the path of nihilism.
  • All-Loving Hero: He seems capable of forgiving just about anyone, even Ultear, the woman who royally screwed up his life and is largely responsible for his Cosmic Plaything status, to the point that the two formed a guild together.
    • That being said, however, Jellal was initially pulled into the guild against his will, with Ultear herself saying she didn't give him a choice in the matter. Additionally, by the time we see them together in Crime Sorciére, they've been working with each other for seven years, which seems more than enough time for them to sort out their issues with one another. And considering he's part of a guild that exists to destroy other guilds, calling him 'All-Loving' seems like a bit of a stretch.
  • Amnesiac Dissonance: He gets a moment to wallow in Angst after being called out by Erza when they meet up during the Nirvana arc.
  • Anti-Hero
  • Arc Villain: Of the Tower of Heaven arc. Though he's being manipulated.
  • Bad Liar: According to Erza, he has always been a terrible liar.
    • Though he seems to have been rather skilled at lying during his eight years at the tower, considering that he was able to convince the council not only of his good nature but that they needed to fire etherion, faked being under control to keep Erza from killing him, tricked her into believing he had a twin, and got everyone that Erza knew as a child to believe Erza had gone mad with power. Granted, he was brainwashed at the time.
  • Badass Longcoat: In the Nirvana arc. Sure he went from shirtless to fully clothed, but at least he looked dang good in it!
  • Beleaguered Childhood Friend: Sometimes is this for Erza.
  • Brainwashed and Crazy
  • Broken Aesop: Want to save your friend from unspeakable acts? Run and save her. You'll succeed, but you'll be tortured and end up Brainwashed and Crazy. Then you'll enslave all of your other friends, murder at least one of them, and try to resurrect the most terrible wizard ever. Then someone who is better at the shounen archetype punches you in the face, freeing you from your insanity.
  • Captain Ersatz: The average Rave Master fan will take one look at him and say "Holy crap! It's Sieg Hart!" There's absolutely no physical difference between the two, and he even has similarly-named spells and occasionally makes the same two-finger gesture Sieg always did when using his magic. It's supposedly just Fan Service though...
  • The Chessmaster: During the Tower of Heaven arc. He even had a chess board to represent the characters.
  • The Comically Serious: He joins Fairy Tail's B team and when Erza calls him, he tells her to shush.
  • Cosmic Plaything: Enslaved, tortured, brainwashed, atomized by Etherion, arrested with either a life sentence or execution and occasionally tortured some more for fun, and ultimately freed by the brainwasher only to have much of the world still hate him for actions he didn't consciously perform, leaving him constantly on the run. Life's a bitch, huh, Jellal?
  • Cover-Blowing Superpower: Defied by Urtear.
  • Dark Is Evil: When Jellal was casting Altairis, Natsu said the magic in the atmosphere was making him sick.
  • Deader Than Dead: Had this happen to him at the end of his arc. He came back anyways.
  • Death Seeker: Carries this tendency after being told of his villainous deeds by Erza. It's usually Erza's duty to snap him out of it.
  • Evil Gloating: Mocked Simon's death. Natsu's response was to punch him in the face.
  • Facial Marking: Has a pretty Badass tattoo around his right eye.
  • Fallen Hero: His childhood personality is actually the most hero-like of any character. Unfortunately for everyone, It Got Worse.
    • Made even more tragic when you realize that what he lost were any true semblance of freedom and a lifetime of happiness with Erza.
  • Guest Star Party Member: Of Fairy Tail's B team.
  • Heel Face Revolving Door: Starting with Chapter 138, it's easier to predict who will end up with who than which side Jellal is going to be on in three pages. Granted, he doesn't switch sides nearly as often as he seems to.
    • Finally ends up with what appears to be a permanent Heel Face Turn after the time skip.
    • Confirmed to be a face by Mavis Vermillion.
  • Hero-Killer: The only one in the series so far to have killed a named heroic character outside of a flashback.
  • Interrupted Suicide: After he casts a self-destruction spell on Nirvana, he casts the same one on himself. It took time to work though, and Erza talked him out of it.
  • Gambit Roulette: His plan to revive Zeref included using his psychic projection as one of the Council members to manipulate them into firing Aetherion and then having the R System, the titular Tower of Heaven, absorb the enormous energy, which would provide enough to commence the ritual. Seriously, did Light Yagami teach him or something?
  • I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: After his reunion with Erza, he makes up a story about a fiancée so she'll give up on him because he believes he has no right to fall in love with someone who "walks in the light" and he only wishes for Erza to be happy.
  • Kissing Discretion Shot: He maybe kisses Erza after the timeskip, or was about to before he changes his mind, making it an Almost Kiss instead.
  • Knight of Cerebus: While the preceding Phantom Lord arc might have been the first to shift the series to Darker and Edgier overtones, Jellal remains the only villain to conclusively kill a heroic character outside of a flashback.
  • Laser-Guided Amnesia: In the Nirvana arc. He gets his memories back over time, though.
  • Light'Em Up: His primary magic is Heavenly Body Magic, which revolves around astronomical objects, but he also has spells that produce beams of light and can surround himself with light to achieve Super Speeds.
  • Made a Slave: Some fans consider it an ironic Tear Jerker that the only time he was truly free was when he didn't know the value of it.
  • Meaningful Name: "Jellal" is a verbal variation of the Arabic word (Jalal) for "greatness".
  • Mistaken Identity: Wendy "remembers" the time he saved her life, but it was actually Mystogan.
    • Which makes it particularly sad if you recall that Jellal was happy to have learned he supposedly saved someone, in spite of all the pain he caused...
    • Chekhov's Gun: Later joins Fairy Tail B team dressed as Mystogan.
  • Mr. Fanservice: There's actually a reason for this picture but still, NICE!! Sadly, when that scene was finally animated, he had a T-shirt on...
    • Overall he seems to be acknowledged both in and out of universe as one of the more attractive guys, particularly after he loses the crazy. At any rate the mangaka really likes drawing him.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: After getting amnesia and being told by a very pissed off Erza about his past deeds.
  • Person of Mass Destruction: His Abyss Break and Self destruction spell.
  • Really Dead Montage: Except since they Never Found the Body, he gets to come back.
  • Redemption Equals Death: They pull this on him twice, and he's still alive, too.
  • Reformed but Rejected: After developing amnesia and deciding he was a good guy, it takes several chapters to convince Erza he's on her side, and being shot in the gut to convince Natsu to accept a power-up from him. After helping save the day he's promptly arrested.
  • Required Secondary Powers: Since his magic lets him move fast enough to outpace even Natsu's keen senses, but when not activated he rather spectacularly fails to dodge an attack of Erza's, there's probably a sharp increase in reaction time involved in the "Meteor" spell.
  • Ship Tease: He gets so much with Erza that even after personally trying to sink the ship they're still the most strongly hinted couple.
  • Shirtless Scene: During the Tower of Heaven arc his shirt is destroyed. When he wakes up he's still half naked.
  • Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Turns out that the key Grimore Heart went after while he was running rampant did nothing. He spent eight years as a puppet and was doomed to stay in prison with a death sentence so he could be a momentary diversion for gathering a useless trinket. Ouch.
  • Slasher Smile: For pretty much for the entirety of the Tower of Heaven arc.
  • Slouch of Villainy
  • The Smart Guy: On Fairy Tail's B Team in the Tournament Arc, disguised as Mystogan.
  • Soap Opera: In Jellal alone we have clones, a twin (for a short period of time), the mysterious look-alike, brainwashing, a coma, and amnesia. There's also the convoluted relationship with Erza. How about you just take a shot every time he pops up with yet another common Soap Opera plot?
  • Spell My Name with an "S": Before the official Del-Rey translation, everyone though his name was "Gerard".
  • Star-Crossed Lovers: Apparently, with Erza.
  • Start of Darkness: He was a child slave who was brainwashed in a single moment of weakness.
  • Superpower Lottery: His magic can make black holes!
  • Unlucky Childhood Friend
  • Unwitting Pawn: Ultear's before his Heel Face Turn.
  • Utopia Justifies the Means: See below.
  • Vigilante Man: Becomes this after the time skip. He forms Crime Sorcière (whose only other members are Ultear and Meldy) that purposely deals with and eliminates dark guilds (an act prohibited by the Magic Council). Also, he's on the hunt for Zeref.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: The reason he was trying to revive Zeref was because he thought it would create a world where everyone could be free.
    • IF by free you mean he had total control and no one else in the world would have free will, because he believed that the only way to grant people freedom was to take it away.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: He's trying to bring back Black Wizard Zeref and is willing to kill just about anyone who tries to stop him with power that got him counted as one of the Ten Wizard Saints (oh, and it was Siegrain who qualified, who Jellal made appear more real by giving half his power to). All because he spent his entire childhood as a slave and someone came up to him and said "Hey, want to make sure that you never go through this again?"
  • You Gotta Have Blue Hair

Ultear Milkovich[]

TV Tropes - Ultear 3517

A former member of Grimoire Heart and leader of the Seven Kin of Purgatory. She uses the Arc of Time, which gives her control over time for inanimate objects. She is also the daughter of Ur, who she initially believes to have abandoned her. She manipulates a good number of villains throughout the series (Lyon, Jellal, and even Hades) to achieve what she wants. After finally realizing the truth of her abandonment, however, she turns over a new leaf.

Cquote1

 Siegrain: That certainly is a Delayed Reaction!

Cquote2
  • An Ice Person
  • Bare Your Midriff: Thanks to Clothing Damage
  • Berserk Button: Being called "Ur". No doubt this is connected to her disdain for her mother.
  • Broken Ace: She's beautiful, intelligent, and very powerful with several magical disciplines under her belt. She's also a bitch with Mommy Issues.
  • Broken Bird
  • Chronic Backstabbing Disorder
  • Clothing Damage
  • Cool Big Sis / Onee-Sama: For Meldy apparently.
  • Crystal Ball: Also her weapon of choice.
  • Dark Action Girl: She played pinball with Natsu's head.
  • Detached Sleeves
  • The Dragon: Every time we see her, she's working for some new Arc Villain trying to bring back Zeref or one of his creations.
  • Easily Forgiven: Subverted. The reason Meldy forgave her was thanks to her "emotional connection", letting her know how devastated she was from her actions and the honest love she had for her. The fact that she tried to kill herself before letting Meldy "stain her hands" also helped.
  • Evil Costume Switch: Ultear went from the Miko-like costume she wore as a member of the Magic Council to her current Stripperific outfit when it was revealed that she was the one manipulating Jellal. After the time skip, she has a somewhat more modest fashion statement.
  • Evil Gloating: Tried it on Gray. His response was to punch her in the face.
  • Form-Fitting Wardrobe: Her clothes cling to her body rather well, and in just the right ways.
  • Freudian Excuse: The reason why she so hateful to her mother and is doing what she doing. She thought she had been abandoned by her mother after seeing her with Gray and Lyon; in truth she was kidnapped and Ur was told she was killed. She also trying to create the Great World of Magic so she can go back in time and be with her mother again.
  • Furo Scene: In the manga, after Jellal was defeated, we are treated to a scene of Ultear taking a bath, talking to the one really pulling the strings.
  • Ghost Memory: After she falls into the ocean while fighting Gray, Ultear experiences Ur's memories since Ur's body was turned into water and drifted out to sea. This finally allows Ultear to realize that she was never abandoned in the first place, and just how much Ur cherished her.
  • Giant Waist Ribbon: To help show off the hips.
  • Going Commando: Her dress' leg slit is high enough to tell she's not wearing anything under there.
  • Good Scars, Evil Scars: Later gets on in the shape of an X
  • Green Thumb: Just a part of what she can do with her time magic.
  • Heel Face Turn: After finally cluing in that she was loved by her mother all along, Ultear helps Fairy Tail defeat Hades by restoring the destroyed Tenrou Island, and Fairy Tail's magic along with it. She later joins Crime Sorcière.
  • Hair Decorations: There's an emerging pattern here.
  • Hime Cut: When she used to dress similar to a Miko before she changed her outfit to the Evil Is Sexy one.
  • Improbable Weapon User: Her weapon of choice is a Crystal Ball.
  • Interrupted Suicide: She tries killing herself to avoid having Meldy stain her hands by killing her in revenge for destroying her town, but Meldy saves her.
  • Lady of War: She may be a bitch, but damn if she isn't beautiful doing it.
  • Leotard of Power: Her new attire after the Time Skip
  • Love Redeems: Both her genuine love for her mother and Meldy change her for the better.
  • Manipulative Bitch
  • Meaningful Name: Ur named her "Ultear" because she was so overwhelmed with happiness at Ultear's birth that she cried tears of joy. It's for this reason that some people insist Ur should be named "Ul."
    • Let's not try to elaborate on the possible meaning of Milkovitch...
  • Mommy Issues
  • Morality Pet: As a corollary to her Jerkass Woobie status, she has one in Meldy.
  • Nice Shoes
  • Parental Abandonment: Played with. Ultear was taken by Ur to a magical research lab because she had too much magical power in her body and it was killing her. The lab people, being less than moral, told Ur that Ultear died, then continued their cruel research on the girl. When she managed to escape, she saw Ur together with Gray and Lyon and assumed that she was abandoned and replaced by her mother, leading her aspirations to go back in time to before she hated Ur and reclaim the happiness she thought she was denied. What she failed to realize was that her mother thought she was dead. We have no idea who her father is or what happened to him, though.
  • Parental Substitute: To Meldy.
  • Pet the Dog: Randomly restores the village of Galuna Island with her time magic after it is destroyed. Even Jellal points it out.
    • Also, she spared Meldy as a child and treats her fairly kindly.
    • Gets another one to Meldy in chapter 239. Once she has Zeref she declares Hades "expendable", but goes out of her way to collect Meldy so she can come with her.
  • Pimped-Out Dress: Not to the extent of being covered in jewels, but it's pretty fancy. In the manga it's even animal print.
  • Pinball Projectile: Her preferred method of fighting.
  • Poor Communication Kills: If what she says is true about escaping the lab the first time, her whole dilemma would've been solved if she had bothered to actually reveal herself to Ur instead of assuming everything.
  • Set Right What Once Went Wrong: Her primary goal, although in this case what is "wrong" is her relationship with her mother.
    • This gets her into trouble later when she decides that since she's going to fix the past anyway, she has carte blanche to do whatever evil acts necessary to get there since those actions would also be set right via time travel.
  • Power Perversion Potential: There's not exactly anything stopping her from aging her opponents' clothes out of existence...
  • Raven Hair, Ivory Skin
  • Sensual Spandex: She uses it to sprout Time Arc bubbles. And yes, it looks amazing.
  • Sexy Backless Outfit: Some of her outfits. Her guild symbol is on her back as well for extra fetish points.
    • Her new scar don't make it any less appealing
  • Shape Shifter: She is quite proficient with transformation magic, though not to the point that she can fool a Dragon Slayer's nose.
  • She's Got Legs: Long, sleek, and toned. She almost always has one of them bared to mid thigh at a minimum.
  • Showgirl Skirt
  • Show Some Leg: Her dress has a slit that goes all the way up to her hip.
  • Sideboob: Because Absolute Cleavage just isn't enough.
  • Slave Collar: Wears what looks like a belt around her neck both before and after her costume change. Ironic once you learn of her past...
  • Spell My Name with an "S": Because they spelled her mother's name as "Ur," the FUNimation dub makes sure not to waste the meaning of her name (Ur's tear) and calls her "Urtear."
  • Superpower Lottery: She can control time, after all.
  • Tall, Dark and Bishoujo
  • Tears of Remorse: Sheds them upon learning the truth about her "abandonment."
  • Time Master: Her primary magic, the Arc of Time, lets her rewind, slow down, fast forward, or completely stop the "time" of an object. It's useless on people though, like so many other spells in this setting that would be completely broken otherwise.
  • Yandere: Appears to be one for Zeref.
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: She didn't say it to Jellal's face, but she did admit as much to Hades, her guild master.
    • Subverted later for she broke him out of jail.
    • And now it even applies to Hades himself, as shown when she tried to get Gray to kill him.
  • Vapor Wear: Seriously, hasn't [1] heard of a bra?
  • The Woman Behind The Man: For Lyon and Jellal. There is a Man behind her.
  • Woman in White: Before her costume change.
  • Zettai Ryouiki: Grade A

Meldy[]

GH Meldy 6784

Another former member of Grimoire Heart's Seven Kin. She has power over people's physical and emotional senses using her Maguilty Sense magic. She's been very attached to Ultear ever since she saved her from her destroyed hometown, which Ultear ironically destroyed without Meldy knowing. Even after learning the truth, her love for Ultear leads her to leave Grimoire Heart with her.

Tower of Heaven[]

A structure constructed by a cult of evil wizards for the purpose of resurrecting the black wizard Zeref. It was made using slave labor, among the slaves being Erza and Jellal. After being corrupted by a being claiming to be the spirit of Zeref, however, Jellal took over construction of the tower.

Jellal Fernandes[]

Erza's old friends[]

A group of slaves in the Tower of Heaven who befriended Erza and Jellal as children. They were turned against Erza by Jellal, who they assist in building the tower as workers with benefits rather than slaves.


  • Heel Realization: Simon realized it for the others longer than they do.
  • Made a Slave
  • More Than Mind Control: Jellal tells them that Erza has gone mad with her newfound magical power and tried leading them into a trap, and keeps feeding them lies for years to ensure they remain faithful to him. The English dub tweaks things a bit by saying that Jellal ensured their loyalty with a mind control spell that only works after tricking them all the same (which Simon resists thanks to the Power of Trust), making more sense out of their almost insane hostility towards Erza despite their earlier love for her, and their swift return to their original friendliness once they realize they were being manipulated.
  • Quirky Miniboss Squad: To Jellal during the Tower of Heaven arc.
  • True Companions: They were this to Erza as a child.
  • What Could Have Been: They were meant to have a much larger role in the arc and even fight Team Natsu, but Word of God says he felt so bad about them while writing their past that he gave them all a Heel Face Turn and created the Trinity Raven.

Sho[]

Trinity Raven[]

TrinityRaven 9063

A trio of assassins from the Death Head's Caucus guild. They replace Erza's friends as Jellal's minions once the others switch sides.


  • Animal Theme Naming: They're all named after birds: "Ikaruga" is a Japanese grosbeak, "Fukurou" is a type of owl, and Vidaldus's last name, "Taka," is Japanese for "hawk".
  • Blood Knight: Vidaldus' the Ax Crazy type, Fukuro's the one with the facade of justice and Ikaruga's the more reserved type.
  • Career Killers: They are group of assassins who participate in killing of others.
  • Fusion Dance: Either they commonly inhabit Vidaldus' body for the majority of the time, or they are summoned when he activates his power.
  • Quirky Miniboss Squad: Quirky, but deadly.
  • Spared By Adaptation: Implied to have died when the Tower falls apart in the manga (what with all the debris), but manage to escape in the anime

Avatar

Avatar is a cult of black wizards that fills the void left after the Balam Alliance's defeat. They worship Zeref as their god, and seek to force every other wizard in Earth-land to do the same.

   Avatar in General

Black Magic: The cult's top members each practice in a form of black magic, though how it differs from other forms of magic isn't quite established, except that their spells have particularly nasty effects. Catchphrase: "Zeref's will be done." Creepy Cathedral: This serves as their base of operations, fitting for a cult of black wizards. Cult: They are pretty much the human version of Tartaros in terms of devotion to Zeref. Curb-Stomp Battle: On the receiving end of it by their final battle with Fairy Tail's strongest team, who decimate them without so much as a single scratch on them. Decapitated Army: After Ikusa-Tsunagi falls and the Avatar army starts to retreat, D-6 attempts to rally what's left of them with Able, but once Panther Lily knocks him out, Avatar's defeat is completed. Dramatically Missing the Point: They perform their "purification ritual"—i.e., the massacre of 30,000 people—under the belief that Zeref is attracted to concentrated deaths. They fail to realize that their line of reasoning is backwards: Zeref doesn't appear because of a large number of deaths; a large number of deaths occur because of Zeref's appearance. Evil Plan: Their plan, "Operation Purify", involves wiping out the entire town of Malva to attract Zeref's attention. Little do Alok's followers know is that they are the real sacrifices. Evil Power Vacuum: When the Balam Alliance is taken down, Avatar takes over in their place. Mass "Oh, Crap!": Their general reaction when Fairy Tail's strongest team returns and starts mowing down their numbers. Meaningful Name: In Hinduism, an avatar is a deliberate descent of a deity to Earth, or a descent of the Supreme Being and is mostly translated into English as "incarnation", but more accurately as "appearance" or "manifestation". Mooks: Like the dark guilds before them, they have a large amount of flunkies at their disposal to act as Fairy Tail battle fodder. Not What I Signed Up For: Alok never told his other members that his plan banked on them being defeated so that he can unleash a war god and sacrifice them to it. Needless to say, they're utterly horrified once they find out. Religion of Evil: Avatar worships Zeref as a living deity, much like Tartaros and Grimoire Heart. Reverse Mole: Avatar suspects one of its members to be leaking information to the Magic Council. It turns out there are actually two moles: Levy is the Council member in question, masquerading as a rank-and-file cultist; Gray, who infiltrated the cult's inner circle, has his own separate agenda with Erza. Tempting Fate: They're confident that their numbers of 2,000 or so members are more than enough to stop Natsu's little band. They realize only too late that plowing through waves of enemies is their thing. "Wanted!" Poster: They have their own wanted poster with a high amount of Jewels. The Worf Effect: They're built up as the next big threat on the face of Ishgal after the Balam Alliance (Oración Seis, Grimoire Heart and Tartaros). However, Fairy Tail had spent so much time training after their costly victory against Tartaros that by the time they appear, their threat is a complete non-factor, giving them an easy victory before the Alvarez Empire shows up.

   Alok

Alok Voiced by: Takashi Matsuyama (Japanese), Chris Messersmith (English)

The high priest of Avatar, who hides a scarred face behind a metal mask. He concocts a plan for a certain ritual to "purify" the world on behalf of Zeref. His Black Magic produces solid barriers only the mightiest of wizards can break.

All According to Plan: He saw the defeat of his cult's members long beforehand. That's because he never intended anyone, even his fellow cultists, to survive anyway. All for Nothing: Alok burnt his face and amassed countless followers as a sacrifice to gain the ability to summon Ikusa-Tsunagi, a War God who towers over mountains. Too bad for him, Ikusa-Tsunagi is killed by Natsu with a Fire Dragon King's Demolition Fist. Arc Villain: He serves as one in the Avatar arc, where he tries slaughtering countless people in a ritual he (wrongly) believes would appease Zeref. Bad Boss: He offers up his own followers as sacrifices to Ikusa-Tsunagi without their know-how or consent, all out of his devotion to Zeref. Badass Cape: One that covers his entire body. Badass Preacher: He exudes this in spades with the intimidating calm he shows while commanding his troops. He's also the most powerful member of Avatar by far, but that isn't saying much. Barrier Warrior: His specialty in magic is creating barriers that can stop anything in their tracks...at least before Natsu comes along. Beam Spam: He can fires bolts of magic energy that, when combined with his barriers, allow him to blast his foes from behind safety as his own magic will pass through the walls without issue. Big Bad Wannabe: With the dissolution of the Balam Alliance, he's set up as the leader of the next biggest threat Earth-land has faced behind Zeref and Acnologia. He goes down faster than Fairy Tail's earliest villains. Cool Mask: He covers his entire face with an iron mask. Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: He's so blindly devoted to his cause that he scoffs at things like friendship and family values. Facial Horror: He wears a mask to hide the fact that he burned the skin off of his face as his price for summoning Ikusa-Tsunagi. We only get a glimpse of his scarred visage when Natsu cracks it. Generic Doomsday Villain: He serves no role beyond being the baddie that gets Fairy Tail's strongest team back together. Magic Staff: He holds a staff with a eye with wings on it, which he uses to make his barriers and fire bolts of energy. Slasher Smile: Once his mask his damaged, he sports one of these while Ikusa-Tsunagi slaughters his own men. Spell My Name with an "S": Funimation alternatively spells his name as "Arlock". The Stoic: He's mostly unfazed by his soldiers' defeat, mainly because it was All According to Plan. Seeing Ikusa-Tsunagi go down with two power punches from Natsu...not so much. Summon Magic: He uses the same magic as Minerva that allows the summoning of gods, though his is on a much higher tier as it involves human sacrifice. This Cannot Be!: He can do little more than stare in silent shock as Natsu destroys Ikusa-Tsunagi, a seemingly indestructible war god the size of a mountain. Tin Tyrant: Aside from his Badass Cape, he's decked out in a suit of armor that obscures his entire body from sight. Vader Breath: His breathing can be seen in the form of clouds that exit his mask's mouthpiece.

   Gray Fullbuster

Gray Fullbuster See his entry on the Strongest Team page.

   Jerome

Jerome Voiced by: Yoshiaki Hasegawa (Japanese), Adam Gibbs (English)

A swordsman with bushy hair and long eyelashes who can't take a joke. His Shade Sword corrodes anything it touches.

Bishōnen: He's a definitive pretty boy with golden locks and long eyelashes. Black Swords Are Better: His Shade Sword has a black blade that corrodes anything it touches. The Comically Serious: Despite his serious disposition, he admires the tacky nicknames Briar gives him. Cool Sword: His Shade Sword is a two-handed dark sword and a huge, round guard covered in belts, and it emits a corrosive dark mist when swung. Dub Name Change: The official manga translation calls his weapon both the "Dark Sword" and the "Shade Sword". Informed Ability: He's supposed to be a Master Swordsman, and what little he gets to show off does hint he has skill with the blade. Then he fights Erza, and she proves who the real Master Swordsman between them is. Make Them Rot: His sword has this effect on whatever it touches, causing Erza's swords to crumble. Messy Hair: He is noted for his unkempt hair, which earns him the nickname "Scruffy" from Briar. Red Baron: "Shade Sword" Jerome, so named for his sword. Right for the Wrong Reasons: He suspects Gray of being a Reverse Mole working for the Council, despite how it appears that has been completely corrupted by his Demon Slayer Magic. It turns out he's half-right; Gray really is spying on Avatar, but it's actually Levy hiding among the Cannon Fodder as the Council's mole. Sarcasm-Blind: He accepts and appreciates the nicknames Briar gives him, not realizing that she does it in poor taste. Too Many Belts: It's actually his sword that's covered in belts. The Worf Effect: He jumps in on Erza during the fight, managing to corrode the majority of her Ataraxia Armor's swords. But the moment she likewise took hold of the remaining one to use, he was already defeated. Worthy Opponent: He views Erza as one and delights at the chance to clash blades with her. Sadly for him, Erza doesn't share the sentiment.

   Briar

Briar Voiced by: Megumi Sato (Japanese), Alle Mims (English)

Avatar's strongest black wizard, who often gives tasteless nicknames to her allies. Her Splitting Magic lets her split herself into four copies with different personalities.

Absolute Cleavage: Her top is just a band of cloth tied together at the front. All Girls Want Bad Boys: She's attracted to Gray, who remains cold and distant from the rest of the cult during his membership there. The Comically Serious: Her seriousness is undermined by the silly nicknames she gives her comrades. Dark-Skinned Blond: She is of the white-heared variety. Et Tu, Brute?: Briar feels betrayed and lied to when Gray reveals himself to be a Reverse Mole, owing to her Villainous Crush to him. The Gadfly: It's implied that she gives others nicknames to get under their skin, which displeases her when Jerome wholeheartedly accepts the names she gives him, forcing her to come up with new ones. Giver of Lame Names: Tends to give weird nicknames to her teammates: Jerome is "Scruffy" and "Eyelashes"; Mary is "Venomous Woman"; and Gray is "Ice", "Striptease" and, after his Reverse Mole status is revealed, "Gray Sewer Rat". Ki Manipulation: She can create blasts of explosive shockwaves through the ground to attack. Literal Split Personality: Each of her copies embodies a different facet of her personality: Fury, who is angered by Gray's betrayal; Laughter, who is amused by his confidence that Fairy Tail can beat Avatar; Sorrow, who is saddened that she has to kill him; and Love, who has feelings for him. Self-Duplication: Her Splitting Magic creates four clones who embody fury, laughter, sorrow, and love. The Stoic: She holds a serious expression most of the time, and her anger is generally restrained even when she finds out Gray was a Reverse Mole. Vapor Wear: It's a wonder how she doesn't completely explode out of her top. Villainous Crush: One of Briar's alter egos, Briar in Love, says that she is "just a little bit" in love Gray. Unfortunately for her, that's just enough for Juvia to declare her a love rival. White Hair, Black Heart: She's a silver-blonde woman who doesn't consider Avatar's "purification" plan to be "murder". The Worf Effect: Despite being touted as the top wizard of Avatar, Gray and Juvia make very short work of her.

   Mary

Mary Voiced by: Eri Suzuki (Japanese), Dani Chambers (English)

A cheery, sharp-tongued young woman whose magic, Virus, instantly afflicts her victims with deadly diseases.

Adaptational Modesty: She wears tights in the anime, while in the manga, her legs are bare. Animal-Eared Headband: Wears a headband shaped like cat ears. Bond Villain Stupidity: She claims she can kill her enemies instantly by infecting her brain, but she would rather torture and humiliate them by targeting their digestive tracts, giving Wendy ample time to immunize her friends from Mary's attacks. Cute and Psycho: She has the most bizarrely cheerful expression on her face as she gives Lucy a nasty stomach virus. Dangerously Short Skirt: The bottom half of her dress barely manages to cover the tops of her thighs. It's especially obvious after she's left on the ground following Lucy's Megaton Punch to her gut, with it riding almost up over her waist. Do Not Taunt Cthulhu: After taunting and demeaning Fairy Tail for their perceived weakness, Lucy one-shots her with one punch. Et Tu, Brute?: This is how she reacts when she realizes that Alok never intended for her or anyone else in the cult to survive Operation Purify. Exotic Eye Designs: Her eyes are gold and have diamond-shaped pupils. Laser-Guided Karma: She loves to target Lucy's stomach to see her writhe in agony. When they face off a second time, Lucy repays her in kind by delivering a Taurus-enhanced Lucy Punch to her gut, making her keel over just like Lucy. L33t L1ng0: She peppers a few of her sentences with Internet slang words in Japanese, like "niko" (smile) and "warai" (LOL). Logical Weakness: Her affliction magic amounts to jack squat in the face of Wendy's sky magic. Named After Somebody Famous: Her name is shared with Mary Mallon, better known as Typhoid Mary, an infamously asymptomatic carrier of typhoid fever believed to have unintentionally infected fifty-one people (killing three of them), despite showing no outward signs of illness. Perky Female Minion: She's the most chipper and comical of all the Avatar members. Plaguemaster: Her magic infects nearby foes with viruses. She favors torturing her victims by attacking the digestive tract, but she can also lethally target the brain when she wants to kill someone. Pstandard Psychic Pstance: She touches her temple with her index and middle fingers to psychically infect her targets. Soft-Spoken Sadist: She keeps the same cheerful smile and tone while tormenting her opponents and insulting their guilds. Squishy Wizard: She can't take punches well. Likewise, a wizard who has support magic like Wendy can easily counteract her viruses. Supernatural Gold Eyes: Her eyes are gold, reinforcing her cat motif with her diamond-shaped pupils. Superpower Lottery: Her Virus magic allows her to very easily accomplish a One-Hit Kill. It's her decision not to that leads to her downfall. Tears of Fear: She's left quivering in fear after Natsu proves himself powerful enough to completely obliterate a war god the size of a mountain. Tempting Fate: Every chance she gets, she just loves to bring up how weak Fairy Tail must have been to fall apart despite being so popular. Not one minute after she makes that statement to Lucy, Mary gets a beefed up punch to the stomach from her. Underestimating Badassery: She assumes Fairy Tail dissolved because they were weak, and spends quite a bit of time mocking them for it. It doesn't work, as the guild wipes out their entire cult and a War God in front of her eyes. Villainous Crush: She shoots a meaningful glance or two to Gray, and admits that she finds him "dreamy". You Gotta Have Blue Hair: Her hair is pink.

   Gômon

Gômon Voiced by: Yuki Sanpei (Japanese), Shawn Gann (English)

A man with bushy eyebrows who makes various tea-related puns. His magic gives him control over torture devices.

Bald of Evil: He has no hair, and instead has kanji written on his forehead. Beware the Silly Ones: He seems a bit comical about torture and his tea puns, but that doesn't stop him from trying to cut Lucy in half with an ax. Big Ol' Eyebrows: His are big and spiky. Bilingual Bonus: A two-for. Written with different kanji, his name means "torture". The kanji on his forehead, on the other hand, reads "matcha", which is a type of green tea. Chain Pain: Uses these along with magic cuffs to tie up Virgo and Natsu. They have an Anti-Magic effect as well. Cloudcuckoolander: He bows respectfully to people who aren't even there, or in the same direction as the people he's talking to. Cosplay: He's actually cosplaying as Zeref with the attire he has on, by his own admission. Embarrassing Tattoo: To show his devotion to Zeref, he tattooed his forehead with what he believed was the kanji for Zeref. Unfortunately, due to his unfamiliarity with kanji, he wound up getting a tattoo meaning "green tea". Eyes Always Shut: His whole face is scrunched up at all times. Probably because he is a lot less intimidating with them open. Fanboy: In-Universe, of Zeref. He says that his choice of outfit is actually cosplaying as Zeref, and he thinks the kanji on his forehead spells Zeref's name (it doesn't). In the anime, he also imagines Zeref with Bishie Sparkles while fawning over him. Harmless Freezing: Gray subjects him to this as he's about to chop Lucy in half with an ax, revealing that his loyalties still lie with Fairy Tail. Mind over Matter: His magic allows him to telekinetically control torture devices. Pungeon Master: He has a tendency to make bad tea-related puns. Puppy-Dog Eyes: He has big, blue, totally un-intimidating eyes when he opens them. This Loser Is You: Appears to be a tongue-in-cheek parody of stereotypical fanboy convention-goers, especially fans of Shōnen villains. Torture Technician: He has quite a collection of torture instruments, making him this for the cult. His arsenal of torture instruments include an iron maiden, a wooden horse, and a goat trained to slowly lick the flesh off of his victims' feet.

   D-6

D-6 Voiced by: Takayuki Nakatsukasa (Japanese), Troy Hughes (English)

A giant man who wears an impressive suit of armor. His magical abilities are unknown.

Ambiguously Human: Given his body shape and odd name, one must wonder if he's even human at all. Cool Mask: Has an oddly-shaped mask with a small grate right in the center. Red Eyes, Take Warning: Has a single red eye that glows when he's about to attack. Shoulders of Doom: He wears giant shoulder pads shaped like horned demon faces. The Worf Effect: He's one of Avatar's strongest, yet he's taken down twice—first by Natsu when he tries to ambush him, and again by Panther Lily as he's trying to rally the retreating Avatar army—before he can demonstrate his power. You Are Number 6: His name is simply a letter and a number.

   Able

Able Voiced by: Misaki Kuno (Japanese), Meg McClain (English)

A clown who carries a Mr. Cursey doll that was given to him by Kain Hikaru of Grimoire Heart. Like Kain, Able uses the Curse of Vengeance to control others' bodies.

Creepy Child: He looks and sounds incredibly young, and speaks with an eerily calm tone. Depraved Dwarf: He's a cute-looking midget in a cult that plans to sacrifice countless hapless people for their God of Evil. Enfant Terrible: Has the appearance of a kid and in an evil and murderous cult. Hollywood Voodoo: He uses the same type of magic as Kain, which involves controlling others with a voodoo doll using a strain of his victims' hair. It Amused Me: He claims that he doesn't care what Avatar does so long as he gets to have fun. Meaningful Name: His name is almost certainly a reference to the biblical Cain and Abel, seeing how his doll was previously owned by Kain Hikaru. Monster Clown: The makeup he wears resembles a clown, and he certainly didn't join a cult worshiping Zeref to do good things. Mysterious Past: He's beaten and locked away before we learn any sort of relationship between him and Kain, such as how he even got the doll. So Last Season: When Kain used his cursing magic in the Sirius Island arc, it was a huge threat to Fairy Tail. However, that's only because they didn't have eight years worth of training under their belt. By then, it's just a mild inconvenience at best. Spell My Name with an "S": Kodansha uses the corrupted spelling "Able", similar to how Kain Hikaru's name is a corruption of "Cain", while the anime itself calls him "Abel". Squishy Wizard: Both Natsu and Gajeel take him out with one attack each.

Edolas[]

A world parallel to Earthland (where the bulk of the series takes place). It is inhabited entirely by counterparts of characters throughout the series. However, magic is limited in Edolas and treated as a precious resource.


  • Acting for Two
  • Bizarro Universe
  • Not So Different: Although superficially the Edolas counterparts seem to be completely different than the Earthland ones, it turns out they are really quite similar. We see this most prominently with Lucy, Jellal, Erza, and Gajeel, and then with Fairy Tail as a whole.

Faust[]

Madman-faust super Mobile 1878

The king of Edolas, and Mystogan's father. He is obsessed with bestowing an infinite supply of magic on his kingdom, and tries to do so by stealing magic from Earthland through interdimensional portals that transform wizards into lacrima.

  • Animal Motifs: Has the appearance of a dog and her constant running around is often compared to an excitable puppy.
  • Blush Sticker
  • Break the Cutie: She protest when she finds out Faust plans to sacrifice Pantherlily for his own ends. Faust response is to fry her legs.
  • Does Not Like Shoes
  • Easily Forgiven: Unlike her fellow Royal Army companions, who are sentenced to help rebuild the city destroyed by their actions, Coco is let off the hook without so much as a slap on the wrist by Mystogan in the anime adaptation, mainly due to her early Heel Face Turn.
  • Foot Focus: Especially when Faust shoots her in the legs.
  • Genki Girl: Has a tendency to run around the room when she's talking to people, shouting as she does it.
  • Heel Face Turn: With a dash of Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal (way to go there, Faust and Byro). She loves her friends more then sacrificing them for eternal magic. She agrees to give the key that powers the weapon to destroy Magnolia Town's lachryma to Lucy after Lucy saves her life from Byro. And later comes to help the group flee from the Edolas army.
  • Human Hummingbird
  • My Country, Right or Wrong: She's just as afraid that the loss of magic in Edolas will lead to the death of their world as anyone else, but she also loves her companions, especially Pantherlily. So when she learns that Lily will be killed as part of her king's plan to achieve eternal magic, she's understandably torn between living without her friend and dying happily with him.
  • Nice Hat
  • Perky Female Minion: Before turning.

Edolas Fairy Tail[]

Exceeds[]

A race of winged cat-like creatures from Edolas, and the species Happy and Carla come from. They live in the floating island city of Extalia and are revered by the humans of Edolas as holy beings due to their ability to contain magic in their bodies, which humans from Edolas cannot do. This is really just a story fabricated by the rulers of Extalia to hide their race's weakness and keep them from being bullied. The entire Exceed race is sent to Earthland together with the magic power stored in Edolas.

Tropes Shared between the Exceeds

Chagot[]

The ruler of Extalia and queen of the Exceeds, revered as a god in Edolas. However, her divinity is just a ruse to keep the humans of Edolas in check. She is also Carla's mother.

Extalia's long-necked Minister of State. He was in charge of the program that sent Happy and Carla to Earthland.

Cquote1

 Voiced by: Kazuma Horie (JP)

Cquote2

  • Cats Are Mean: He claims to kill humans on command, but this is just a lie to keep humans in check which, considering Faust, is not that bad of an idea. Even his "plan" to send Exceeds to Earthland in order to kill Dragon Slayers is a lie. All in all, he's a pretty nice guy.
  • Dissonant Serenity: He smiles cheerfully while talking about how humans are inferior and how the Exceeds kill them when their population grows too much. Of course, this is just part of the Jerkass Facade.
  • Going Through the Motions: For some reason he just doesn't stop pumping his right fist into the air. It's so contagious that Team Natsu picked it up temporarily.
  • Jerkass Facade: He pretends to be an arrogant bastard who looks down on humans and wants to kill humans, just so he can maintain peace among his people.
  • Only Sane Man: Given how he's one of the few Exceeds to know the truth about the queen, he's also the first one to realize Wendy and Carla are telling the truth when they say that the humans are rebelling against them.
  • Smug Snake: Subverted.

Lucky & Marl[]

Dragons[]

Dragons in Fairy Tail are rarely seen by human beings, and are thus considered mythical creatures. However, they have existed since ancient times. Three dragons--Igneel, Metalicana, and Grandine[2]--took in three human children--Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy, respectively--and taught them the ways of Dragon Slayer magic before mysteriously disappearing.


Igneel[]

The Fire Dragon, is a typical western dragon with red scales. He's Natsu's foster father, as well aw the one who taught him the Dragon Slayer magic and gave him the scaled scarf. Disappeared mysteriously, but shown to be still alive in volume 13.

  • Big Damn Heroes: Saves Lucy from the collapsing Nirvana and from being sucked through the Anima, and Wendy from one of Hades's attacks.
  • Chekhov's Gunman: His ability to conceal people inside his body comes in handy (see above).
  • Verbal Tic: "...he/she says." Justified in that the inside of his body is totally soundproof, and he must relay the words of whatever people say inside him to everyone else.
    • The English dub takes this a step further: he not only says what people say, but how they say it, such as "...he/she yells furiously" or "...he/she asks tearfully," just to make good with the lip-locking.

Caelum[]

The Chisel. It is one of Angel's contracted spirits that acts more like a weapon than a sentient being.


Pyxis[]

The Compass. He is a large penguin with a compass on top of his head.

  • The Archer
  • Captain Obvious
  • Expressive Mask: The horse part reaction also changes according to the situation
  • Literal Minded / Genius Ditz: Possibly a combination of the two of these, or at least an innocent version of the first. When asked if he could produce fire for Natsu, he stated that he could not. Only later did he realize that the issue at hand was if fire could be produced. Granted, it's partly a case of Poor Communication Kills, but it seems like a weird thing to distinguish.
    • Considering there was a fight going on, it's logical to assume he thought Lucy was asking him to shoot fire, which he can't do.
  • Verbal Tic: "Moshi, moshi!" (Hello, hello)
    • In the Funimation dub, he just says a multitude of weird-sounding greetings, goodbyes, and conjunctions. ("Yes sir-ee!" "See you later, alligator.")

  • Elemental Baggage: One of the few aversions in the series. Lucy can't summon her without an existing body of water.
  • Jerkass
    • Hidden Heart of Gold: However, she does care for Lucy as seen after Hughes negated her attack she screams at Lucy to get out of there.
  • Making a Splash: Just look at her name.
  • Odd Friendship: With Juvia.
  • Official Couple: With Scorpio.
  • Reliable Traitor: Despite her tendency to berate, mock, and even attack Lucy, the latter can almost always count on her destructive power as a last resort.
  • Tsundere: Though her dere only shows around (and for) her boyfriend.
  • Unfriendly Fire: Not just because she's a Jerkass around Lucy, her power is inherently just so destructive.
    • In fact this is used to Lucy's advantage when Aquarius was being controlled by an enemy.
  • You Gotta Have Blue Hair

  • Walking Spoiler: It's virtually impossible to talk about him to someone who hasn't gotten to the point where he shows up without ruining something.
  • Walking Wasteland: He loathes being this.
  • Wham! Line: The S-Class Trials arc started out on a relatively light note, but the moment Hades reveals and exclaims "The Black Wizard Zeref," the arc takes an abrupt turn and becomes far more serious.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: You gotta feel a little bad looking at him crying and all.
  • You Won't Like Me When I'm Angry: His expression has been enough to make people cry when he's pissed off.

Cquote2

  • Continuity Nod: We see him again in the Phantom Lord arc. He's the guy Juvia remembers breaking up with her because he can't stand the constant rain.
  • Defeat Means Friendship: In the anime only, he really straightens up his act after being defeated, and has Natsu to thank for it. He goes on to act relatively chummy with Fairy Tail by wishing them luck before they put on a play, and appearing during their annual Fantasia parade as a spectator.
  • Jerkass
  • Lighter and Softer: In the manga, he goes as far as attempting to brand Lucy as a slave with a scorching hot iron, which was removed entirely from the anime. This is given a Hand Wave in the anime later on, with him saying he was actually just scouting for glamour models in an overly-aggressive fashion.
  • Playing with Fire: His is purple.
  • Power Perversion Potential: Uses the illegal charm magic to make women fall to his charms.
  • Screams Like a Little Girl: It's only for a split second in the anime, but he lets out a high-pitched shriek upon seeing Natsu eat his flames for the first time.
  • You Gotta Have Blue Hair

  • Gonk: Look at him.

  • Tunnel King: In addition to his Summon Magic, but it's unknown whether he learned it from Virgo or if it was the other way around.

Cquote2

  • Action Mom
  • Adult Fear/Iron Woobie
  • An Ice Person: Strongest of these seen in the series.
  • And I Must Scream: She uses the Iced Shell spell on Deliora, which transforms her entire body into the ice freezing the demon. And she stays alive in this form. Makarov states that melting the ice would be the equivalent of killing Ur, but as both Lucy and Gray believe, she continues to watch over them as water once Lyon melts her.
  • Artificial Limbs: Makes a temporary leg out of ice during her battle with Deliora.
  • Badass
  • Bare Your Midriff
  • Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Deliora eventually dies from being sealed in her ice.
  • Ghost Memory: After her body gets turned into ice, melted into water, and washes out to sea, Ultear is able to experience her memories of when she was told that Ultear had died, and just how much she loved her daughter, by falling in the ocean.
  • Heroic Sacrifice
  • Hot Mom: Gave Gray his habit of stripping in the cold and is Ultear's mom.
  • Informed Ability: Though she is stated to be the strongest in the country, apart from Iced Shell, which both Gray and Lyon can use, we haven't seen her do much, fighting-wise.
  • Missing Mom: She left her daughter with researchers in hopes that they could help her cope with her abnormally large magical power. Unfortunately, the researchers were of the Complete Monster kind and told Ur that her daughter was dead, all while experimenting on the girl. So Ultear believes that Ur abandoned and replaced her, and Ur has to deal with the guilt that she couldn't do anything for her precious daughter.
  • Not Quite Dead: Her body is actually the ice that sealed Deliora, and she is watching over her two students.
    • The fact that her ice flows into the ocean becomes a plot point when her daughter fights Gray.
  • Posthumous Character: Not quite, but close enough.
  • Sexy Mentor: Yes, yes she is.
