Later in the series, Gray inherits Ice Demon Slayer Magic (氷の滅悪魔法, Kōri no Metsuaku Mahō) from his reanimated father, Silver, becoming a Demon Slayer (Debiru Sureiyā, lit. "Devil Slayer") to carry out Silver's will to destroy END The corruptive influence of his demonic powers compels Gray to irrationally fight Natsu upon discovering his identity as END,[ch. 449, 450] but he ultimately uses his powers to help strip Natsu of his identity as an Etherious so he may live normally as a human.[ch. 538]

Over the course of Fairy Tail, Erza grows fond of her friends during their adventures.[ch. 104, 438]The character is named after Eru from Mashima's one-shot manga Fairy Tale, which served as a pilot for Fairy Tail.[vol. 2:190] 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.[vol. 12:199] He also said that he often forgets what Erza's armor looks like, and changes the design every time she appears.[vol. 18:187] Erza has the largest breasts in the series

Wendy Marvell edit Voiced by: Satomi Satō[10] (Japanese); Brittney Karbowski[11] (English) Wendy Marvell (ワディ・マーベル, Wendi Māberu) is a blue-haired young Dragon Slayer adopted and trained by the dragon Grandeeney (グラディネ, Gurandīne, also "Grandene") to perform Sky Dragon Slayer Magic (天空滅竜魔魔, Tenkū no Metsuryū Mahō), which draws power from clean air to heal others' injuries and injuries,[ch. 135] and can temporarily relieve Dragon Slayers' motion sickness.[ch. 144] 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.[ch. 465] When the group is scattered upon arrival, Wendy travels the world with Mystogan until he leaves her at the Cait Shelter (化猫の宿ケルト・シェルター, Ketto Sherutā) guild, where she comes to be known as the "Sky Dragon" (Tenryu, [ch. 135] Seven years later, Wendy represents her guild in an alliance with Fairy Tail, Blue Pegasus, and Lamia Scale against the dark guild Oración Seis. [ch. 132] After the Seis are defeated, Wendy discovers her guild's true nature as an illusion created by her master, the elderly spirit Robaul (Rōbauru, Rōbauru), to care for her; figure,[ch. 423] inspiring her to use her magic's combative functions, which include manipulating wind and increasing her and her allies' abilities through enchantment.[ch. 376]

Carla edit Voiced by: Yui Horie[10] (Japanese); Jad Saxton[11] (English) Carla is a white-furred six-year-old Exceed who acts as Wendy Marvell's partner and caretaker;[ch. 133, 145] her name is Charles (シャルル, Sharuru) in Japanese, spelled "Charle" in Funimation subtitles, which was changed to "Carla" in countries where readers would interpret "Charles" as a male name.[vol. 27:184] 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.[ch. 198] 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;[ch. 198] despite this, Carla decides to protect Wendy. Although annoyed with Happy's obliviousness to their mission, Carla reconsiders after he ignores the Exceeds' orders.[ch. 165, 169, 177] 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.[ch. 198, 201, 421]

Guild masters edit Mavis Vermillion edit Voiced by: Mamiko Noto[12] (Japanese); Leah Clark (English) Mavis Vermillion (マヴィス・バーミロン, Meibisu Vāmirion) is the first and founding master of Fairy Tail,[ch. 203] nicknamed the "Fairy Strategist" (妖精軍師, Yōsei Gunshi) as a child prodigy with vast military and illusory skill.[ch. 255] Mavis also has knowledge of the Three Great Fairy Magics (妖精三大魔, Yōsei San Dai Mahō), a trinity of spells that can only be used by members of her guild;[ch. 233] besides Fairy Law, these spells include Fairy Glitter (妖精の輝ファグリグリター, Fearī Gurittā), an attack that eradicates any enemy,[ch. 232] and Fairy Sphere (妖精のボールファリーｽｬｱ, Fearī Sufia), an impenetrable force field that suspends time for those inside.[ch. 255] 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,[ch. 449] but retains her physiology as an adult woman in later life.[ch. 526]

Raised on Sirius Island by a harsh guild master who takes her shoes away, Mavis develops the habit of walking barefoot.[13][14] At age 13, she encounters a group of treasure hunters who later become her co-founders of Fairy Tail.[13] 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.[15][ch. 449] 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.[ch. 450, 526] Her body is preserved in a lacrima crystal beneath Fairy Tail's guild hall, where it produces a source of limitless magic known as Fairy Heart (

Fairy Heart (Feari Hāto, Fearī Hāto),[ch. 451] codenamed Lumen Histoire (ル メンズ・イストワー, Rūmen Isutowāru),[ch. 258] with Precht Gaebolg building a false grave on Sirius Island to hide this secret.[ch. 203] Mavis consequently appears as an astral projection that can only be seen and heard by those marked with Fairy Tail's emblem.[ch. 268] 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.[ch. 489, 537] One year later, a girl who shares Mavis's appearance named Mio (ミオ) surfaces and encounters a young man named Alios, who resembles Zeref.[ch. 545

Mavis's background was included in the very first concepts of the series.[vol. 31:195] Mashima conceived her as an elderly male character, later changing her into a young girl after being informed that "Mavis" was a female name.[16] He also expanded the character's involvement in the story because of his "immense popularity", remarking that he had "no idea" she would become so popular.[vol. 32:191] 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.[vol. 53:189] 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".[vol. 53:189]

Precht Gaebolg edit Voiced by: Masashi Hirose (2010–2014), Yutaka Aoyama (2015–present) (Japanese); John Swasey (English) Precht Gaebolg (プレヒト・ゲイボルグ, Purehito Geiborugu), primarily known under the alias of Hades (ハデス, Hadesu),[ch. 214] 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, [vol. 27:184] while his surname comes from the mythical Irish spear Gáe Bolg.[vol. 53:194] 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,[ch. 451] which spurs him on a quest to uncover the source of magical power.[ch. 215] Upon tracing the source back to Zeref, he becomes obsessed with obtaining this singularity for himself and finds Grimoire Heart, assuming that he must awaken Zeref's dormant power to achieve his goal.[ch. 249] Hades practices powerful spells such as Grimoire Law (悪魔の法律グリモアロウ, Gurimoa Rō), a dark version of Makarov Dreyar's Fairy Law,[ch. 214] and the artificial Devil's Eye (悪魔の眼, Akuma no Me) beneath his eyepatch, which gives him access to even greater dark powers developed by Zeref when opened.[ch. 247] His signature magic allows him to produce chains from his hands to grapple and throw opponents.[ch. 214] Using a mechanical "heart" on board his guild's airship that is based on his knowledge of Fairy Heart, [vol. 53:189] Hades overpowers Fairy Tail's attacks until the heart is destroyed by Happy and Carla.[ch. 248] He is spared by Makarov upon his defeat, only to be killed by Zeref shortly afterwards for summoning Acnologia through his actions.[ch. 250]

Makarov Dreyar edit Voiced by: Shinpachi Tsuji[6] (Japanese); R. Bruce Elliott[7] (English) Makarov Dreyar (マカロフ・ドレアー, Makarofu Doreā) is the son of guild co-founder Yuri Dreyar (ユーリ・ドレアー, Yūri Doreā), 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.[vol. 2] He is an old, diminutive man who is registered as one of the Ten Wizard Saints (聖十大魔導, Seiten Daimadō), 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.[ch. 47] He has knowledge of numerous forms of magic, including the ability to vastly increase his size using the magic Giant (巨人ジャイアント, Jaianto).[ch. 28] He is a grandfatherly figure who looks upon his guild's members as his own children,[ch. 50] although he is beleaguered by the problems they cause him with the council.[ch. 2] A running gag in the series is Makarov's inability to secure a permanent successor,[ch. 69] resulting in him holding the position of sixth and eighth guild master after Gildarts Clive and Erza Scarlet, respectively.[ch. 259, 448] He eventually sacrifices his life to annihilate the Alvarez Empire's army using his ultimate technique, Fairy Law (妖精の法律フェアリーロウ, Fearī Rō), which reduces the caster's lifespan to eliminate anyone they consider to be an enemy without harming their allies,[ch. 66, 505] although Mavis Vermillion later resurrects him as a paraplegic upon her own death.[ch. 537, 545]

Mirajane Strauss edit Voiced by: Ryōko Ono[6] (Japanese); Monica Rial[7] (English) Mirajane Strauss (ミラジェ・ストラウス, Mirajēn Sutorausu) is the guild's barmaid and administrator with white hair,[ch. 2] who also works as a pin-up girl for the fictional Weekly Sorcerer (休日ソーサラー, Shūkan Sōsarā) magazine.[ch. 1] Gaining infamy as "Demon Woman" (魔人, Majin), Mirajane is the older sister of Lisanna and Elfman who uses a variety of the transformation-based magic Takeover (執収テイクアウト, Teikuōbā). Her variety is called Satan Soul (サンタンソール, Satan Sōru), which allows her to assume the forms and powers of various demons she has defeated.[ch. 117] 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".[ch. 25] Because of the trauma she suffered from that incident, Mirajane also restricts her Takeover magic to only mimic others' physical appearances and voices, and withdraws 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.[ch. 52, 117] 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.[vol. 45:189]

Mystogan edit Voiced by: Daisuke Namikawa[17] (Japanese); Robert McCollum, Terri Doty (child)[7] (English) Mystogan (ミストガン, Misutogan) is a masked Fairy Tail wizard who hails from the parallel universe of Edolas as the counterpart of Jellal Fernandes.[ch. 167] 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.[ch. 120] 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.[ch. 24] 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.[ch. 190] Unable to prevent Magnolia from being absorbed along with Fairy Tail,[ch. 168] 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.[ch. 189] 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.[ch. 195] 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.[ch. 197]

Laxus Dreyar edit Voiced by: Katsuyuki Konishi[7] (Japanese); Patrick Seitz[7] (English) Laxus Dreyar (ラクサス・ドレアー, Rakusasu Doreā) 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.[vol. 27:184] 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 Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic (雷の滅竜魔法, Kaminari no Metsuryū Mahō).[ch. 128] As a teenager, Laxus feels overshadowed by his grandfather and eventually rebels following his father's expulsion from the guild,[ch. 106, 119] growing into a strong supremacist at the beginning of the series.[ch. 24] 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".[ch. 107] After his plans fail, Makarov expels him for endangering his guildmates, although he leaves on friendlier terms with them.[ch. 128] He later joins Fairy Tail's battle against Hades on Sirius Island,[ch. 244] and is reinstated into the guild by Gildarts Clive during the latter's brief period as guild master.[ch. 260]

Gildarts Clive edit Voiced by: Kazuhiko Inoue[18] (Japanese); Jason Douglas (English) Gildarts Clive (ギルダーツ・クライヴ, Girudātsu Kuraivu) is an S-Class wizard who is considered by Fairy Tail to be their most powerful member.[ch. 106] He can break any object or spell he touches down into blocks using the magic Crush (クラッシュ, Kurasshu), which requires Magnolia's streets to reconfigure into a single, narrow path towards the guild to prevent him from stumbling into buildings by mistake.[ch. 166] Because he embarks on missions that have never been completed for up to a century,[ch. 165] he only visits the guild on rare occasions for short periods of time;[ch. 232] during one failed mission, he loses his left limbs and several internal organs after getting mauled by Acnologia.[ch. 166] He is also the widowed father of Cana Alberona,[ch. 232] 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.[ch. 251] 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.[ch. 256] After returning from the island, Gildarts is elected by Makarov as the guild's fifth master after Macao Conbolt,[ch. 258] but resigns from the position almost immediately to leave on another journey.[ch. 259] He returns one year later to participate in the war against the Alvarez Empire,[ch. 495] remaining at the guild in the series epilogue.[ch. 545] Mashima described the character as "a dumb-looking old guy", and considered his first appearance to be "a really big event" within the story.[vol. 20:188]

Other members edit Cana Alberona edit Voiced by: Eri Kitamura[6] (Japanese); Jamie Marchi[7] (English) Cana Alberona (カナ・アルベローナ, Kana Aruberōna) is an alcoholic woman who drinks entire barrels of liquor at a time,[ch. 2] consuming 30% of the guild's alcohol.[ch. 38] Her name is derived from the tarot term "arcana".[vol. 2:190] She uses magic cards (魔法の札マジックカード, majikku kādo) either as projectile weapons or to perform a variety of spells,[ch. 38] including fortune-telling.[ch. 51] As the most senior guild member of Lucy Heartfilia's generation,[ch. 201] 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 shyness and his rarely presence, Cana motivates herself to become an S-Class wizard, but fails four qualification tests in a row and falls into depression.[ch. 232] During her fifth test on Sirius Island twelve years later,[ch. 202] 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.[ch. 225] Upon realizing her own treachery, Cana rejects her chance for promotion in favor of saving her friends,[ch. 232] and eventually reveals herself to Gildarts as his daughter after the trial's cancellation.[ch. 251] Later, Cana becomes proficient at using the Fairy Glitter spell occasionally provided to her by Mavis,[ch. 285] which she uses to revive her physical body by destroying her astral projection with the spell.[ch. 489]

Loke edit Voiced by: Daisuke Kishio[6] (Japanese); Eric Vale[7] (English) Leo (レオ, Reo),[ch. 72] better known as Loke (ロキ, Roki), is a humanoid celestial spirit and a playboy who is regarded as a popular bachelor in the wizard community;[ch. 2] his name is derived from the Norse god Loki.[vol. 2:190] His finger ring Regulus (王の光レグルス, Regurusu) can generate blinding or damaging light at will.[ch. 115] Under the ownership of Blue Pegasus member Karen Lilica (カレン・リリカ, Karen Ririka), Loke remains in the human world on behalf of his fellow spirit Aries to protect her from Karen's abuse. 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.[ch. 73] When Loke is on the verge of dying three years later, Lucy Heartfilia convinces the king to let him return to the spiritual world.[ch. 73] 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,[ch. 10] and occasionally summoning himself through his own power to aid her and the rest of Fairy Tail.[ch. 114, 202] Loke is also the leader of the twelve zodiacs as stated by himself and Gray.

Elfman Strauss edit Voiced by: Hiroki Yasumoto[6] (Japanese); Christopher Sabat, Anastasia Muñoz (child)[7] (English) Elfman Strauss (エルフマン・ストラウス, Erufuman Sutorausu) is the brother of Mirajane and Lisanna. Mashima developed his name to sound "somewhat cute".[vol. 2:190] He is a hypermasculine, muscle-brained wizard who spouts nonsensical speeches about manhood,[ch. 2] but is also kindhearted and emotionally sensitive.[ch. 51] He employs the Takeover magic Beast Soul (獣王の魂ビーストソウル, Bīsuto Sōru) to assimilate the powers and forms of monsters, although his transformations are limited to his right arm using the Beast Arm (ビーストアーム, Bīsuto Āmu) ability due to his lack of proficiency.[vol. 15:omake] 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.[ch. 54] 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.[ch. 56]

Levy McGarden edit Voiced by: Mariya Ise[6] (Japanese); Kristi Kang (2009-2019),[7] Hannah Alyea (2024–present)[19] (English) Levy McGarden (レビィ・マクガーデン, Rebī Makugāden) is a cornflower blue-haired member of Shadow Gear (シャドウ・ギア, Shadō Gia), 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.[ch. 48] Using the magic Solid Script (立体文字ソリッドスクリプト, Soriddo Sukuriputo), 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.[ch. 47] She initially avoids Gajeel when he joins Fairy Tail, but reconsiders after he defends her from a disgruntled Laxus Dreyar.[ch. 105] She subsequently begins to develop romantic feelings for Gajeel,[ch. 202] 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.[ch. 545] Mashima designed Levy to be a background character in the series, but grew to "really [like] her".[vol. 27:184] He subsequently expanded her role in response to her rise in popularity, which he said defied his expectations.[vol. 32:191]

Gajeel Redfox edit Voiced by: Wataru Hatano[20] (Japanese); David Wald[21] (2012-2024),[22] Phil Parsons (2024-present)[23] (English) Gajeel Redfox (ガジル・レッドフォックス, Gajiru Reddofokkusu) is a Dragon Slayer whose Iron Dragon Slayer Magic (鉄の滅竜魔魔, Tetsu no Metsuryū Mahō) allows him to transform his limbs into iron weapons, covering his skin with impenetrable iron scales, breathe gusts of wind containing metal shrapnel, and consume iron objects for nourishment.[ch. 61] Transported 400 years from the past through Eclipse as a child in the surviving dragons' plan to kill Acnologia,[ch. 465] Gajeel is separated from his fellow Dragon Slayers and forgets his childhood besides being raised by the dragon Metalicana (ﾒﾘｶナ, Metarikāna).[ch. 510] He resents Metalicana for his disappearance,[ch. 66] becoming a delinquent member of Phantom Lord nicknamed "Kurogane" (鉄竜黒がネ, lit. "Black Steel", written as "Iron Dragon"), whose act of defacing Fairy Tail's guildhall and assaulting Levy McGarden's team instigates a war between the two guilds.[ch. 48] After Phantom Lord's dissolution, Gajeel reluctantly accepts Makarov Dreyar's offer of membership into Fairy Tail to atone for his actions,[ch. 212] gaining the guild's trust and acceptance after helping Natsu Dragneel defeat Laxus Dreyar in the Battle of Fairy Tail.[ch. 126] He subsequently develops protective feelings for Levy,[ch. 210] eventually confessing his love for her while being nearly killed during the war with the Alvarez Empire.[ch. 488] In the series epilogue, Gajeel has an implied conversation with Levy about a baby.[ch. 545]

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.[vol. 8:190] The character's name is derived from the word kajiru (噛る, "to gnaw") and the onomatopoeia for eating, gaji-gaji (ガジガジ).[vol. 27:184] Similar to Natsu, Gajeel's age is listed as "unknown",[ch. 105] 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.[vol. 15:188] Gajeel's backstory with Magic Council member Belno was a "simplified" version of what Mashima had initially planned, with the author's original intention being that Belno would be Gajeel's catalyst for joining Fairy Tail before changing it to Makarov.[vol. 47:185]

Juvia Lockser edit Voiced by: Mai Nakahara[20] (Japanese); Brina Palencia[21] (English) Juvia Lockser (ジュビア・ロクサー, Jubia Rokusā), 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 [ch. 47, 56].

She duels with Gray, but loses and the rain around her stops for the first time in her life.[ch. 56-57] 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.[ch. 256] 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.[ch. 499] Mashima does not remember the origins of her name, but really loves it.[vol. 27:extra]

She is one of Natsu Dragneel's childhood friends and also love interest who helps him hatch Happy's egg.[vol. 15:omake] When Lisanna is 16 years old, she is seemingly killed by Elfman in his berserk full-body takeover form;[ch. 55] in truth, Lisanna survives and is absorbed through an anima portal into the parallel world of Edolas, where she quietly assumes membership within Edolas's version of Fairy Tail after being mistaken by her own counterpart. Two years later, she is forced to return to Earth-land when Mystogan reverses Anima's effects, reuniting Lisanna with her siblings.[ch. 199] Mashima conceived the character's name because he felt the suffix "-anna" made it sound cute.[vol. 27:184]

He imposes the rules of the Battle of Fairy Tail with his Jutsu-Shiki,[ch. 108] and reluctantly carries out Laxus' orders to kill their guildmates. This leads him to question Laxus' morality.[ch. 114] After being overpowered by Mirajane Strauss' reawakened Satan Soul form, Fried temporarily shaves his long hair as a form of atonement for his misdeeds.[ch. 118, 129] His name is derived from the Japanese phrase "Furui-zo" (古いぞ, lit. "It's old"), reflecting the character's initial concept of attacking with archaic words.[vol. 27:extra] His name was originally going to be Albion (アルビオン, Arubion), but Mashima shortened it to balance out his teammates' longer names.[vol. 27:extra]
