History Characters / FairyTailJellal

* CoverBlowingSuperpower: He attempts to use a powerful signature spell while undercover in the Gran Magic Games. Ultimately {{defied|Trope}} in the end by Ultear, who forces him to throw the match before he can blow his cover to the whole audience.

* BeingTorturedMakesYouEvil: Initially being to be the cause of his villainy. The end of the Tower of Heaven arc reveals the [[BrainwashedAndCrazy true cause]].

* KarmaHoudini: She was quite the grade A bi-atch prior to her HeelFaceTurn, so even though she TookALevelInKindness, it's rather odd how she never really answered for her time as a Heel. Granted, she may have gotten off relatively unscathed, and history may have let her off the hook, but her ''[[HeelRealization conscious]]'' never did so.

* SexyBacklessOutfit: Some of her outfits. Her [[TattooedCrook guild symbol]] is on her back as well for extra fetish points. Her post-TimeSkip scar doesn't make it any less appealing.

Crime Sorcière is an independent wizard guild dedicated to the eradication of dark guilds and wizards, and hopefully Zeref himself. Founded by Jellal after he is freed from his obsession with Zeref, it starts out with only himself, Ultear, and Grimoire Heart's Merudy as its sole three members.

!Tower of Heaven

[[folder:In General]]
A group of slaves in the Tower of Heaven, a structure made by a cult of evil wizards for the purpose of resurrecting the black wizard Zeref. They 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.
----
* ChildhoodFriends: With Erza.
* EvilFormerFriend: When they're introduced, they kidnap Erza with the intention of sacrificing her to the Tower of Heaven.
* HeelFaceTurn: All of them turn against Jellal once they realize how crazy he is.
* HeelRealization: Simon realized it for the others longer than they do.
* MadeASlave: Like all children in the Tower of Heaven.
* MoreThanMindControl: Jellal tells them that Erza had [[DrunkWithPower 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 PowerOfTrust). [[FridgeBrilliance This makes 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]].
* QuirkyMinibossSquad: To Jellal during the Tower of Heaven arc.
* TrueCompanions: They were this to Erza as a child.

[[folder:Sho]]
!!Sho
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Sho_profile_proposal_363.png

A young man who uses Card Magic to trap others inside cards. He views Erza as an older sister even when he believes that she had betrayed them.

->Voiced by: Creator/HiroShimono (JP), Creator/GregAyres (EN)
----
* AmbiguouslyBrown: One of the Q&A sections (hosted by Lucy and Mira, no less) notes the problem with this trope since Sho and the others should've been inside the tower for most of the time (except when they kidnapped Erza). Lucy [[WildMassGuessing takes a guess]] and theorizes that Sho could've been working on the outer walls of the tower and spent so much time in the sun that his skin eventually tanned into its current color. Mira accepts this theory, but Lucy points out that it was just a [[ShrugOfGod guess]].
* DarkSkinnedBlonde: This has lead to quite a bit of WildMassGuessing, both among the fandom and InUniverse.
* DeathDealer: Sho's magic involves the use of cards, either as prison dimensions or projectiles.
* GoMadFromTheRevelation: Sho, who was already quite the fanatic when it came to Jellal, loses it when Erza provides a contradictory version of the past.

[[folder:Simon Mikazuchi]]
!!Simon Mikazuchi
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Simon_Prof_8197.JPG

A large man with a missing jaw who uses Darkness Magic. He has a long-standing crush on Erza, and is the only one of her friends who doesn't believe Jellal's lies of her betrayal. He also turns out to be Kagura's older brother.

->Voiced by: Creator/YasuyukiKase (JP), Creator/JMichaelTatum (EN), Kim Foster (EN - young)

* AdaptationalAttractiveness: In the manga, his appearance was more brutish and his upper teeth could usually be seen over his metal jaw early on. The anime changed this (as well as his child appearance) into a more "scarred-Bishonen" type appearance. Mashima probably thought making him "a tad ugly" would get the audience to sympathize with him more during his death. [[TearJerker It worked]].
* CastingAShadow: He specializes in darkness magic.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: He has been in love with Erza since they were kids.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Simon's uses Darkness Magic, yet he is the first to switch to Fairy Tail's side.
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: He dies in Erza's arms.
* DyingDeclarationOfLove: Subverted in that he never actually confesses to Erza, he just thinks it.
** Subverted again as Erza tells Wally that she now knew how he felt all along at the end of the arc.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: All his friends knew about his crush on Erza.
* EyepatchOfPower: To cover his missing eye.
* EyeScream: Simon lost an eye and the lower half of his jaw during the slave revolt.
* GentleGiant: Despite being absolutely massive, he only uses his bulk to shield others.
* GeniusBruiser: Is well informed about Team Natsu's abilities and has heard of the dreaded Trinity Raven before meeting them himself.
* GoodAllAlong: He never was truly working for Jellal.
* GreenEyedMonster: Towards Jellal, since he knew about Erza's feelings for him.
* HeroicSacrifice[=/=]TakingTheBullet: Simon takes an attack meant to kill both Erza and Natsu by himself, [[KilledOffForReal and the results are rather predictable.]]
* InterruptedDeclarationOfLove: Eight years ago, he tried to confesses to Erza during the slave revolt. [[RealityEnsues He got blasted in the face doing it.]]
* KilledOffForReal: Takes the bullet for Erza and Natsu and is one of the few characters, let alone heroic characters, to be killed.
* SacrificialLion: The only good one so far.
* [[{{Telepathy}} Thought Projection]]: Simon is able to communicate telepathically over distances through this.

[[folder:Wally Buchanan]]
!!Wally Buchanan
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Wally_Prof_7259.png

A gunslinging man who uses Polygon Magic to separate his angular body into blocks. He talks, dresses, and acts like a 1920's gangster, as a gangster movie was the first thing he saw when he and the other slaves were freed.

* NiceHat: Like all gangsters.
* TheNicknamer: Calls Natsu "boy".
* NoSocialSkills: He doesn't seem to know much about the real world besides what he has seen in movies. He doesn't understand why a man got angry at Milliana for taking one of his food on a stick without paying and he doesn't even know exactly what cash is either.
* RaisedByWolves: He and Millianna behave as if they've never been anywhere before. [[MadeASlave Makes sense]].
* SinisterShades: Again, to look like a gangster.
* UncannyFamilyResemblance: Wally with his brother Richard, aka Hoteye of Oración Seis.

[[folder:Millianna]]

* BloodKnight: Vidaldus is the AxCrazy type, Fukuro's the one with the facade of justice, and Ikaruga's the more reserved type.

* ProfessionalKiller: They are group of assassins who participate in killing of others.
* QuirkyMinibossSquad: Quirky, but deadly.

* AxCrazy
* BigOlEyebrows: Though they are more prominent before transforming.
* CatchPhrase: "Go to Hell!"
* DeathSeeker: When he learns that the Magic Council is planning to fire [[KillSat Etherion]] on the Tower of Heaven, he is at first angry that he hadn't been told about it earlier, but then decides he doesn't care because he enjoys fighting with his life on the line. His ultimate goal is to die and go to Hell.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette
* LargeHam: He is a punk rocker.
* LaughablyEvil: He is ''hilarious''.
* MagicMusic: Vidaldus uses his music to [[BrainwashedAndCrazy take control of Juvia]].
* MindRape: The things Juvia says when his music is [[BrainwashedAndCrazy taking over her mind and body]] make it come across as this.
* MusicalAssassin
* PhlebotinumOverload: Lucy takes advantage of his liquid-absorbing hair by summoning Aquarius, who conjures too much water for him to handle and pins him down for a finishing blow.
* ThePowerOfRock: Which he uses to make women his slaves, along with his guitar and hair magic.
* PowerPerversionPotential: Uses his "Rock of Succubus" song to brainwash girls into being his slaves. He forces the brainwashed Juvia to fight Lucy just so he can watch a CatFight.

* OminousOwl: He's basically a human with an owl's head, with all of the benefits it entails, and [[PrimalFear then some]].
* VocalDissonance: Likely due to his owlish head.

A structure made by a cult of evil mages for the purpose of resurrecting the black mage Zeref. It was made using slave laborers, among whom were Erza and Jellal. After being corrupted by a being claiming to be the spirit of Zeref, however, Jellal took over construction of the tower.

'''''Massive unmarked spoilers within.'''''

* TheAtoner: All three of them.

* {{Byronic Hero}}es

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 Merudy knowing. Even after learning the truth, her love for Ultear leads her to leave Grimoire Heart with her.

->Voiced by: Creator/SaoriGoto (JP), Bryn Apprill (EN)
----
* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Her Maguilty Sodom spell can somehow cut Juvia's body, which is [[NighInvulnerable made of water]].
** It's explained that the blades don't so much ''cut'' her, as they force the pain receptors in her brain to make her ''feel'' as though she's been cut.
* ActionGirl
* AdaptationDyeJob: Her eye color changes from green to red in the 2014 anime.
* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: She declares her familiar love for Ultear after she tries to commit suicide to atone for all the things she had done (including destroying Merudy's hometown).
* BadassCape
* BareYourMidriff: Thanks to ClothingDamage.
* BerserkButton: She is normally fairly unemotional pre-HeelFaceTurn, but it turns out hurting "her" Ultear is a huge one for her. For that reason, she wants to kill Gray more than anybody else on the island during the Sirius Island arc.
* ClothingDamage
* DarkMagicalGirl: At first.
* DefrostingIceQueen: After the TimeSkip, she's grown from a very serious, angry kid into a very relaxed, cheerful person.
* DetachedSleeves
* DidntSeeThatComing: Was clearly ''not'' expecting Juvia to be so powerful during their battle on Sirius Island.
* DoomedHometown: Merudy cooperates with Ultear's schemes because Ultear saved her when her town was destroyed and told her that awakening Zeref would allow her to restore it. When Zancrow informs her that Ultear destroyed her town in the first place, she does ''not'' take it well.
* EmotionlessGirl: At first.
* TheEmpath: Her magic allows her to share someone else's emotions after coming into contact with Juvia.
* EvilCounterpart: To Juvia at first.

* FormFittingWardrobe
* GenkiGirl: Post-TimeSkip
* GreenEyes
* HairDecorations: Wears some sort of gold wing-like headgear around her ears in her introduction.
* HappilyAdopted: Ultear found her as a child and took her in. Merudy loves Ultear very much and even refers to Ultear as her mother in a flashback. That doesn't change even after she finds out Ultear was the one who destroyed her hometown.
* HeadphonesEqualIsolation
* LeotardOfPower
* LittleMissBadass: ''[[{{Badass}} Erza]]'' is hesitant to fight her in when they first meet. [[FridgeHorror Digest that for a moment]].
* MoralityPet: To Ultear.
* PetTheDog: She helps Juvia out after their battle when Juvia faints.
* RapunzelHair: Post-TimeSkip.
* ReiAyanamiExpy: A young girl with short pink hair and special magical abilities who shows little to no emotion and is extremely devoted to her parental figure. By the timeskip, she has defrosted into a very outgoing and emotional person.
* RoboSpeak: When she's introduced, she pauses between words and refers to her mission to "exterminate" and "annihilate" her enemies as the "prime directive", and she even gave the members of Fairy Tail numbers for the order in which she would kill them.
* RoseHairedSweetie: She starts out as TheStoic, but becomes a perfect example of the cheerful subtype after the timeskip.
* SheIsAllGrownUp: Contrast her pre-TimeSkip appearance with her post-TimeSkip appearance. No, you're not the only one who noticed.
* ShoutOut: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]; according to WordOfGod her name just came up out of the blue, then he saw that the name was very similar to [[VideoGame/TalesOfEternia a certain RPG character]], he regretted it.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: There was some debate among the scanlators regarding whether it's "Meldy" or "Meredy" before the Kodansha release went with "Merudy".
* TheStoic: At first.
* StormOfBlades: One of her spells, [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Maguilty Sodom]].
* SugarAndIcePersonality: When she's introduced, she's a stoic and cold girl who only shows her warm and somewhat childlike side to Ultear. Over the TimeSkip, her warmer personality took over.
* {{Synchronization}}: Her magic allows her to connect two or more people's physical and emotional senses to one another, including her own.
* TakingYouWithMe: Adds herself to the Gray-Juvia link when Juvia begins overwhelming her so that, no matter which girl dies, so will Gray. Juvia stops her.
* ThreePointLanding
* TookALevelInCheerfulness
* UnderestimatingBadassery: Does this to Juvia due to seeing her as a weakling. It isn't until she stated that Gary is the top on her list of hits that she realized what a mistake she made.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Ultear. Even after finding out that Ultear was the one who took everything away from her in the first place, Merudy loves her and wants to stay by her side no matter what.
* WhenSheSmiles: Noted by Juvia.
* {{Yandere}}: Shown to be one towards Ultear at first, stating that she would kill Gray for hurting "her" Ultear. She seems to have grown out of it by the timeskip.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Her hair is pink.
* YouKilledMyFather: When she finds out her dear Ultear was the one who destroyed her home and killed everyone she knew and loved and confronts her about it, this trope is pretty much what Ultear reads her nasty DeathGlare to mean after admitting to doing just that.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Grade A.
