37!!Heartfilia Konzern
38
39The Heartfilia Konzern, owned by the wealthy Heartfilia family, is one of the richest and most powerful families in the Kingdom of Fiore. They are also the host of a long line of celestial wizards dating as far back as the age of dragons 400 years ago. However, in the aftermath of the guild war between Phantom Lord and Fairy Tail, the company is eventually bought out by their rivals, the Junelle Corporation.
40
41[[folder:Heartfilia Family in General]]
42* AncientOrderOfProtectors: The Heartfilia family secretly kept an Eclipse Gate (implied to be the same used by the royal family) constructed on Zeref's behalf for centuries, using it to bring the Dragon Slayers to the present.
43* GenerationXerox: Lucy bears an uncanny resemblance to the other females in her family, even her distant ancestor Anna.
44* ItRunsInTheFamily: A proficiency for [[SummonMagic Celestial Magic]] is strong in the Heartfilia bloodline, and has been for centuries, dating all the way back to 400 years ago.
45* MusicalThemeNaming: According to Hiro Mashima, most of the family's known members are named after songs by Music/TheBeatles: Lucy after "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", Jude after "Hey Jude", Anna after "Anna (Go to Him)", and even anime-exclusive distant cousin Michelle Lobster after "Michelle". ''Layla'' is the OddNameOut, being the wife of Beatle Music/GeorgeHarrison and, infamously, the subject of the song "Layla" by occasional Beatles collaborator Music/EricClapton.
46* StartMyOwn: Once Layla becomes pregnant with Lucy, Jude decides to form the Heartfilia Konzern using the money he and Layla obtained while becoming members.

50!!Jude Heartfilia
51!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BanjoGinga (Japanese), Creator/BillJenkins (English)
52[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ft_jude.png]]
53
54Jude is Lucy's father, Layla's widower and the founder of the Heartfilia Konzern. Layla's death drove a wedge between him and their daughter for six years, motivating Lucy to leave her wealthy life behind to join Fairy Tail. He hires Phantom Lord to retrieve his daughter for the Konzern's opportunities, indirectly causing the guild war with Fairy Tail. After losing both Lucy and his fortune in the guild war's aftermath, Jude dedicates the rest of his life to atoning for his misdeeds as a father.
55----
56* AmbiguouslyRelated: Thanks to later revalations in the manga that Layla was Anna Heartfilia's descendant, his status as a member of the family is muddled. It's left unclear if Jude was also a descendant of the Heartfilla's from a separate branch of the family or if he just adopted his wife's name when they married.
57* ArchnemesisDad: He immediately becomes one to Lucy after she realized that he indirectly caused the guild war in his efforts to bring her back home. Their relationship gets better later on to the point that Jude sends her the rent payment for her apartment during her disappearance on Sirius Island.
58* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: A father-daughter example, though they're sadly not together when their love for each other is proven: before his death, Jude sends Lucy gifts (including a year's worth of rent money) every year on her birthday for the seven years she is missing because he has that much faith she is still alive. It's thanks to this that Lucy finally admits her own love for her father.
59* BeardOfSorrow: He grows a long beard in the time between Phantom Lord's defeat and the Battle of Fairy Tail.
60* BreakTheHaughty: He's a neglectful WellIntentionedExtremist who is willing to bring her daughter back to keep the Konzern afloat even if he indirectly risks a guild war in the process. In the aftermath, Jude loses his daughter, the Konzern gets bought out by the Junelles, and he's down on his luck.
61* BrokenPedestal: He becomes one for Lucy when his neglectfulness stemming from his grief over losing Layla causes her daughter to run off and join Fairy Tail. One year later, Lucy disowns him after he hires Phantom Lord to retrieve her for his business opportunities, inadvertently causing the guild war in the process. Fortunately, their relationship gets better once Jude loses his fortune.
62* BrutalHonesty: He bluntly tells Lucy that she shouldn't have run off without telling him where she was going as well as causing trouble to those around her thanks to her actions. As it turns out, her running off caused Jude to retrieve her for his business opportunities only to cause a guild war with Fairy Tail.
63* BusCrash: He was completely absent following the Battle of Fairy Tail arc, and it's later revealed that he died [[{{Workaholic}} working himself to death]] trying to atone for his misdeeds during Lucy's seven-year disappearance on Sirius Island.
64* CharacterDevelopment: He goes from a {{workaholic}} and neglectful but well-meaning businessman to a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, especially after he decides to atone for his misguided actions.
65* CorruptCorporateExecutive: As the head of the Heartfilia Konzern, he's willing to do anything to keep the Konzern afloat, even if it means hiring Phantom Lord to retrieve Lucy for an ArrangedMarriage and indirectly risking a guild war with Fairy Tail. Well, until he loses everything after the Junelle Corporation buys out the Konzern.
66* CynicismCatalyst: Layla's sacrifice turned him into a jerkish and neglectful father to the point that Lucy decided to leave her family life behind and join Fairy Tail.
67* DefrostingIceKing: When Lucy [[CallingTheOldManOut calls out Jude on]] nearly getting her and her friends from Fairy Tail killed [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom thanks to him hiring Phantom Lord]] and the Konzern goes bankrupt, he starts to realize that he's been a bad father and decides to become TheAtoner for his misdeeds. Before he dies during Lucy's disappearance, he wrote a letter admitting that he truly loves her.
68* DidntSeeThatComing: He didn't realize that Phantom Lord would use his job request to start a guild war with Fairy Tail until it was far too late.
69* EasilyForgiven: A particularly tragic example. Lucy forgives Jude for his earlier harsh behavior towards her the moment she reads a posthumous letter in which Jude admits that he truly loves her.
70* FamilyVersusCareer: His dedication to the Heartfilia Konzern after Layla's death nearly kills his relationship with Lucy.
71* FantasyForbiddingFather: This is all but stated to be the reason why Lucy joined Fairy Tail. He's so insistent on having Lucy bear a son through an ArrangedMarriage for the family to have an heir that he tries to reign in Lucy's impulses to become a wizard and join the guild. He ultimately reconsiders after losing his business.
72* FatalFlaw: His workaholic tendencies after Layla's death not only pushed Lucy away for six years, but ultimately leads to his untimely demise one month before Lucy and her friends return from Sirius Island.
73* FreudianExcuse: His jerkish and neglectful personality is rooted in Layla's death.
74* GoodCannotComprehendEvil: After Lucy runs off to join Fairy Tail, Jude has Phantom Lord return her unharmed. But it never occurs to him that Phantom Lord intends to eliminate Fairy Tail in an all-out war and Jude ends up paying for it dearly.
75* GoodParents: Jude may have made a catastrophic mistake by hiring Phantom Lord to bring her back for an ArrangedMarriage one year after she runs off, but he's eventually shown to have been a good father towards Lucy, especially when he loses his business and Lucy rescues him.
76* HappilyMarried: He and Layla were deeply in love with each other, before her HeroicSacrifice.
77* HeelRealization: After Lucy disowns him for inadvertently helping a guild war between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord come into play, Jude is overcome with guilt and he ultimately dedicates the rest of his life to repair their fractured relationship.
78* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: He trusts that Phantom Lord's retrieval of Lucy would improve his family business through an ArrangedMarriage. Predictably, it [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom doesn't end well]].
79* HumblePie: He's deeply affected by his failed ArrangedMarriage attempt with Lucy; not only was he [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom indirectly responsible for instigating the guild war with Phantom Lord]] and Fairy Tail, but he loses his daughter and his business afterward. He becomes less of a {{jerkass}} by the time of the Battle of Fairy Tail, to the point that, after Lucy rescues him from Naked Mummy, he finally begins to repair their fractured relationship.
80* ItsAllAboutMe: He doesn't seem to care much about her daughter's well-being when we first see him because of his {{workaholic}} behavior.
81* IWantGrandkids: This is the main reason behind his request for Phantom Lord to retrieve Lucy. Not only does he want his daughter to inherit the vast wealth, but he wants her to have a son.
82* JerkassHasAPoint: Jude mentions that regardless of him not spending time with Lucy after Layla's death, she probably shouldn't have run off without telling him where she was going. A reasonable point, since Lucy admitted her regret in doing so when she returned.
83* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He might have been a neglectful parent at best, but he's far from a bad guy. The reason for his initial personality is because he was a {{workaholic}}, especially after Layla died. Fortunately, what Jude does after losing everything by the Battle of Fairy Tail easily makes up for his actions and, as evidenced in his final letter to Lucy, he has always loved her.
84* LaserGuidedKarma: His {{workaholic}} behavior and desperate efforts to have Phantom Lord retrieve Lucy for an ArrangedMarriage frustrates Lucy to the point where she actually refuses to return home once the guild war is over. Then he loses his business when the Junelle family buys it out, and he has [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone no one to blame but himself]].
85* LifesWorkRuined: After Layla's death, Jude spends seven years trying to help his family business. Then, when Lucy runs off, Jude hires Phantom Lord to retrieve her for an ArrangedMarriage so that the Konzern can expand on the Heartfilia Railways. Due to a combination of tragic events, however, Lucy breaks off the arranged marriage and the Heartfilia Konzern gets absorbed by the Junelle Corporation. After experiencing a subsequent HeelRealization, he decides to atone for his misdeeds for the rest of his life.
86* MarriedToTheJob: After [[TheLostLenore Layla's death]], Jude immersed himself in his work. As such he had no time for his daughter to the point where he eventually hires Phantom Lord to retrieve her for an ArrangedMarriage. When Lucy realizes that he would do anything to bring her back, she brutally chastises him for inadvertently causing her and Fairy Tail grief. It's also how he loses everything else.
87* MoneyDumb: After losing all his money, Jude demands Lucy to give him 100,000 Jewels, which is even more than her monthly rent but paltry in the eyes of a former multi-millionaire. Later on, he points out he was just asking for money to pay for a ride to work, and severely overestimated the cost, as Lucy {{lampshade|Hanging}}s.
88* MustMakeAmends: He decides to make amends with Lucy after the Heartfilia Konzern is bought out by the Junelle Corporation by the end of the Battle of Fairy Tail.
89* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: After Lucy chastises him following Phantom Lord's defeat; the guilt-ridden look on his face the moment Lucy leaves says it all.
90* NotNowKiddo: When Lucy made a rice ball for him on her 11th birthday, he understandably didn't want to be disturbed in doing his work.
91* ParentsAsPeople: He could have done a better job raising Lucy and handling his {{workaholic}} tendencies in the aftermath of Layla's death, but at the end of the day, he still loved his daughter. His final message to Lucy upon the latter's return from Sirius Island has him state that she was his pride and joy.
92* ParentsInDistress: Jude ends up being rescued by Lucy when the latter hears that Love & Lucky has been taken over by Naked Mummy.
93* PetTheDog: Once Lucy rescues him, he atones for his misdeeds to the point that he wrote a letter to her before his death.
94* RebuiltPedestal: After [[RichesToRags losing his fortune]] and [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone realizing his own foolishness]], Jude begins to rebuild his relationship with his daughter. However, it's after he dies and proves his devotion to Lucy when she goes missing for seven years that Lucy admits for the first time in years that she loves him, too.
95* RedemptionEqualsDeath: While attempting to repair his relationship with Lucy to make up for what he did, Jude died during Lucy's seven-year disappearance. Played with in the sense that Lucy viewed it as a blink of an eye when she returned.
96* RichesToRags: Around the time after the Battle of Fairy Tail, he's down on his luck and had to sell the Konzern to the Junelle Corporation just to get by.
97* SelfMadeMan: He apparently worked himself up the ladder, starting with the merchant guild Love & Lucky where he met Layla. After losing everything, he decides to work himself up from the bottom once again.
98* SingleTargetSexuality: Regardless of her HeroicSacrifice, Jude has never stopped loving Layla.
99* SmallRoleBigImpact: By requesting Phantom Lord to retrieve Lucy for an ArrangedMarriage, he's partly responsible for the guild war with Fairy Tail.
100* TookALevelInJerkass: His grief over Layla's death caused him to become a neglectful and jerkish father to Lucy. But he's still a good guy underneath it all, and he atones for his misdeeds after getting over Layla's death.
101* TookALevelInKindness: When Lucy rescues Jude from Naked Mummy around the time after Laxus's expulsion, he starts to make amends with their relationship to the point where he sends her money to pay the rent for the apartment until his death, even after she disappears on Sirius Island.
102* WasTooHardOnHer: When Jude reunites with Lucy in the aftermath of the Battle of Fairy Tail, he blames himself for his earlier actions. And he's not wrong in doing so.
103* WellIntentionedExtremist: He takes desperate measures to bring Lucy home unharmed to help his family business. Unfortunately for him, it turns out to be a big mistake as it indirectly helps Phantom Lord instigate a guild war against Fairy Tail and affects Lucy on a very personal level.
104* {{Workaholic}}: He became focused on his work after Layla's death, resulting in his [[ParentalNeglect neglectfulness towards Lucy]]. It eventually got to the point where [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Lucy left to join Fairy Tail]] and eventually disowned him once the battle with Phantom Lord is over. It's also indicated that, despite finally making amends with Lucy, his workaholic tendencies ultimately became his FatalFlaw.
105* YoungerThanTheyLook: He is only 38 when he's first introduced, but with his wrinkles and defined facial traits, he can easily pass for someone 10-20 years older than that.

108[[folder:Layla Heartfilia]]
109!!Layla Heartfilia
110!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AyaHirano (Japanese), Creator/CheramiLeigh (English)
111[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Layla_2210.jpg]]
112
113Layla is Lucy Heartfilia's mother and Anna's direct descendant, whose death in X777 connects her with the dragons' disappearance; it also becomes an early catalyst for her daughter's journey to Fairy Tail. She is also a Celestial Wizard, and the original owner of the Zodiac spirits Cancer, Capricorn, and Aquarius.
114----
115* AncestralWeapon: She was a celestial wizard like her daughter, and passed the keys of Cancer, Capricorn, and Aquarius down to her.
116* CastFromLifespan: Without all twelve gold keys, she had to use her life force to compensate when she opened the Eclipse Gate for the Dragon Slayers to arrive 400 years after Anna, Zeref, and the dragons concocted their plan to kill Acnologia. Unfortunately, the effort still killed her.
117* DeathByOriginStory: Her death is Lucy's first major step in becoming a celestial wizard herself.
118* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Lucy has nothing but fond memories of growing up with Layla, even after the latter's death.
119* DePower: She died of magic deficiency disease, a complete physical breakdown caused when a wizard suddenly loses every bit of his or her magic power at once. It's revealed in the Alvarez Empire arc that she sacrificed her own life force to open the Eclipse Gate for the Dragon Slayers to arrive.
120* GoodParents: She was a loving mother to Lucy, who continues to miss her even as a teenager.
121* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She's golden-haired blonde and one of the most unquestionably good characters in the whole series.
122* HappilyMarried: Before her death, she and Jude were in a loving, close marriage.
123* HeroicSacrifice: She uses her own life force to compensate for the lack of the final key needed to open Eclipse and let the seven Dragon Slayers come to the present... which drains up all her energy and causes her to die.
124* TheLostLenore: Layla dies seven years before Lucy joins Fairy Tail and it turns out to be Jude's justification for his neglectful behavior towards Lucy.
125* LovedByAll: She was utterly adored by everyone who knew her in life. The only person who truly hates her is Brandish, but she reconsiders when she learns the real reason why her mother was killed.
126* MistakenForMurderer: Brandish thinks that Layla killed her own mother, Grammi, over Aquarius's key. However, she eventually realizes that the latter inadvertently caused Layla's death.
127* TheOjou: She was a very polite and composed person and [[LovedByAll highly respected and loved]] by those who knew her.
128* PimpedOutDress: She is almost always seen wearing a pink, frilly dress befitting the wife of an ultra-rich industrialist.
129* PlotTriggeringDeath: Her death sets the plot of ''Fairy Tail'' into motion.
130* PosthumousCharacter: She's long dead by the time of ''Fairy Tail'', sacrificing herself to open Eclipse when Lucy was only 10 years old.
131* ProgressivelyPrettier: Her appearance in the manga goes from looking a bit aged to being the splitting image of her daughter.
132* ProperLady: She was a cultured, graceful and elegant celestial wizard.
133* SmallRoleBigImpact: Despite appearing exclusively as a PosthumousCharacter, she was instrumental in Zeref and the dragons' plan to kill Acnologia, waiting her entire life for the day when she'd open Eclipse for the Dragon Slayers after 400 years. This action set the series's plot in motion, and without her, Lucy would have never met Natsu.
134* TeenPregnancy: Layla had her daughter when she was 19.
135* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: She was a kind owner to her spirits, and is greatly missed by her loved ones, who all have nothing but good things to say about her. She also used her own life force to bring the Dragon Slayers 400 years from the past.

147
148Anna is a distant ancestor of the Heartfilia family and a famous Celestial Wizard. She was recruited by Zeref for a centuries-long plan to defeat Acnologia once and for all, though her role is more direct than it initially seems.
149----
150* TheArchmage: Aquarius acknowledges Anna to be quite a powerful celestial wizard. Coming from [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Aquarius]], especially at a time in which Lucy has [[TookALevelInBadass taken several levels in badass]], that's saying a lot.
151* CatchPhrase: "Everything has a proper order."
152* DisneyDeath: She appears to be [[AndIMustScream trapped inside the space between time]] after trying to take Acnologia with her. However, after Acnologia simply eats his way out, Anna manages to safely escape with him.
153* EarlyBirdCameo: Anna makes a speaking appearance in front of Layla's grave at the very beginning of the Avatar arc in the anime, an entire story arc before her actual debut outside of flashbacks towards the end of the Alvarez Empire arc.
154* EleventhHourRanger: She shows up in the climax of the Alvarez Empire arc with a plan to stop Acnologia by trapping him in a SwirlyEnergyThingy.
155* EnemyMine: While Zeref might not have been that bad of a guy at the time, he was still a master of TheDarkArts, and she was still working with him on a centuries-long scheme to eliminate an even greater threat.
156* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Like the Dragon Slayers who were raised by dragons, she comes 400 years from the past through Zeref's TimeMachine in a plan to properly hone the Dragon Slayers' power in a more magic-rich environment as humanity's last hope for defeating Acnologia. By the time she appears in the story proper, however, she has already spent fifteen years adjusting to the present era, and converses with her distant descendants Layla and Lucy as casually as any ordinary relative.
157* FormFittingWardrobe: She wears a ''very'' skintight outfit in the past, to the point where the only parts of her upper body that can't be seen are her nipples. She is later seen wearing a more conservative robe.
158* GenerationXerox: She's Lucy's ancestor by four centuries and ''still'' looks exactly like her, to the point where Natsu can't tell them apart when he sees her image. Even after spending about two decades or so in the future, she just looks like an older, tired Lucy.
159* GreaterScopeParagon: She shares this role with Igneel in Zeref's plan to defeat Acnologia, at least before Zeref became the BigBad. She also happens to have been around since the very beginning, but had good reason not to involve herself in the struggle against Zeref as she kept herself busy by setting up her own contingency against Acnologia.
160* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She's a very caring individual, par the course for Lucy's known female ancestry.
161* HeroicSacrifice: {{Downplayed|Trope}} and DoubleSubverted. Her and Ichiya's decision to take Acnologia with them into the space between time appears to do no good at first, since he breaks out [[NiceJobBreakingItHero more powerful than ever before]]. However, not only do Anna and Ichiya survive, but Acnologia turning as powerful as he does becomes an unintentional blessing in disguise, as it poises the Dragon Slayers and the rest of the wizards for a two-pronged attack against his body and disembodied spirit, ultimately resulting in his death.
162* HotTeacher: She taught literacy to Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, Sting, and Rogue when they were very young. She was also very beautiful and is still quite stunning despite having aged 15 years in the present. By the end of the series, she takes up the occupation of a teacher in a small village. [[spoiler:And in ''100 Years Quest'', Ichiya has become her admirer, and later, fiancé.]]
163* ItsAllMyFault: The anime shows that Anna fell into a HeroicBSOD when she learned her descendant Layla died opening Eclipse for the sake of her plan, reacting to the news like a parent would their child.
164* LongGame: Her plan with Zeref was to FlingALightIntoTheFuture (specifically the Dragon Slayers, one of whom was Natsu) using the Eclipse Gate, and have one of her distant descendants open Eclipse on the other side. Meanwhile, she would ensure her entire family dedicated themselves to this goal in the future, while Zeref takes TheSlowPath to the future. Where this went wrong was Zeref's immortality, his deteriorating opinion on humanity, and his disastrous courtship with Mavis.
165* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Her plan to send Acnologia into the space between time not only fails miserably but also makes him even ''stronger'' than before when he gains godlike strength because of it. The only thing that keeps it from being completely in Acnologia's favor the fact that he has to split his body and soul to escape, which ultimately works to the heroes' advantage towards beating him.
166* ParentalSubstitute: She was ''supposed'' to become the Dragon Slayers' caretaker in the dragons' absence when they came to the present until an unexpected force scattered the five children across the land.
167* RememberTheNewGuy: She's a key figure in the Dragon Slayers' backstory and Zeref's conspiracy to defeat Acnologia, yet the first we ever hear of her is during the climactic Alvarez Empire arc. It's somewhat mitigated by the fact that her actions fill in a few of the series' {{Plot Hole}}s, and that the Dragon Slayers' memories of her were jumbled when they passed through Eclipse because of their age--case in point, she taught Natsu how to read and write, yet Natsu only recalls Igneel teaching him--but it's jarring nonetheless.
168* ShipTease: She gets some with Ichiya of all people, forming an alliance with him and calling him a handsome man when he stays by her to perform a SenselessSacrifice.[[spoiler: Then, in ''100 Years Quest '', it is revealed that her husband greatly resembles Ichiya up from looks to his personality making a case of DoppelgangerReplacementLoveInterest.]]
169* SoleSurvivor: By the end of ''Fairy Tail'', Anna is one of the two remaining Heartfilia family members, the other being her descendant, Lucy.
170* SummonMagic: Naturally, as a celestial wizard. It's all but stated she possessed all twelve Zodiac keys at one point in time, as she wouldn't have been able to open Eclipse without them.
171* TextileWorkIsFeminine: Anna is the one who made Natsu's scarf, knitting them out of Igneel's scales.
172* WalkingSpoiler: It's virtually impossible to mention her without also mentioning all the ways she's involved in the main plot. Even trickier is the fact that she's also still alive in the present era.
173* YouCantGoHomeAgain: With Eclipse permanently destroyed after the Grand Magic Games in X791, Anna is unable to return to her original timeline. [[spoiler:She prepared her husband at the time, Tatsuya, for this parting and entrusted him in keeping their newborn child safe to continue the Heartfilia lineage, and later entered a new romance with Ichiya.]]

179
180Anna Heartfilia's husband from 400 years ago. He bears a striking resemblance to Ichiya.
181----
182* IdenticalStranger: His face looks just like Ichiya's does in the present, but slightly easier on the eyes. Anna, of course, falls for Ichiya, but one thing about that remains unsettling. It's unclear if Ichiya's striking resemblance to Tatsuya is coincidental or ancestral-- hopefully [[KissingCousins not the latter.]]
183* PosthumousCharacter: He is only seen in the past, as his wife tasked him with raising their child to carry on the Heartfilia line.
184* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Even though Anna cried at the idea of saying goodbye to Tatsuya for good and swore to never love another man, he encouraged her to seek out a new love, and gave her hope that she would find someone just like him to fall for. As it so happened, Ichiya fit the bill perfectly.

194Spetto is the Heartfilia family maid, whom Layla entrusted with Cancer's Gatekey until Lucy came of age.

196* MaidAndMaiden: Spetto has this dynamic with Lucy, being an archetypal {{Maid}}.
197* PutOnABus: She isn't seen again after the Heartfilia manor is bought out.
198* SmallRoleBigImpact:
199** In the ''Memory Days'' OVA, Spetto is the first one to tell young Lucy about Fairy Tail after she'd been rescued by her present self, setting Lucy on the course to joining the guild.
200** On a smaller note, Spetto is revealed in the Alvarez Empire arc to be the one Layla entrusted with the key of Cancer to pass on to Lucy.

214
215Grammi is Brandish's mother, and one of Layla Heartfilia's friends. She was entrusted with Aquarius's Gatekey, but was killed by Zoldio during Layla's final days.
216----
217* CreateYourOwnVillain: By inadvertently causing Layla's death, Grammi is eventually killed by Zoldio, leading to her daughter's misguided revenge plot against the Heartfilias for it.
218* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Green hair, green eyes.
219* DeathByOriginStory: Grammi's death had a major impact on Brandish to the point she decides to commit a misguided RoaringRampageOfRevenge on Lucy 15 years later.
220* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Based on Aquarius's memories of her, Grammi was a doting mother to Brandish.
221* DespairEventHorizon: She falls into despair upon failing to get Aquarius's key back to Layla before Eclipse can be opened.
222* GoodParents: She was a loving mother to Brandish, who continues to miss her even as an adult.
223* InTheBack: Her killer, Zoldio, snuck up and stabbed her with a dagger from behind because he was distraught over Layla's death.
224* LastRequest: As she's killed by Zoldio, her dying words to him are to spare Brandish's life.
225* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: It's clear from her expression when she realizes that she failed to return Aquarius's key to Layla that she was thinking exactly this trope.
226* MyGreatestFailure: This is how she views Layla's HeroicSacrifice to open Eclipse. The Alvarez Empire arc reveals that after she received Layla's summons a week late, Grammi rushed to Layla's side with Aquarius's key. Unfortunately, she was so horrified to learn that Layla has already used up her life force to open Eclipse. In her dying moments, Grammi never forgave herself whatsoever for this.
227* PlotTriggeringDeath: Her death indirectly sets off Brandish's resentment towards Layla and her daughter, Lucy.
228* PoorCommunicationKills: When the time came for Layla to open Eclipse for the Dragon Slayers, she sends out a request that all Zodiac keys be returned to unlock the door, but news reaches Grammi an entire week late because she's in Alakitasia. By the time she rushes to Layla's side, it's too late: the latter was forced to make up for the lack of Aquarius's key with her own magic, and [[HeroicSacrifice ultimately her life]].
229* PosthumousCharacter: She was killed around the same time Layla died.
230* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Her name is spelled as "Grammie" by Funimation and Crunchyroll.
231* StrongFamilyResemblance: She bears an uncanny resemblance to her daughter Brandish the same way Layla does for Lucy, wearing the same hair decs as her.
232* SummonMagic: She's implied that she was also a celestial wizard since Aquarius was present in her daughter's childhood after Layla gave her the key to the spirit to keep it.
233* TearsOfRemorse: She cries in despair over how her actions inadvertently led to Layla's death, from the point she visited her bedside right up until her murder shortly after.
234* TragicMistake: Upon receiving Layla's summons a week late, Grammi rushes to Layla's side and realizes that the latter has used up her own life force. Although Grammi [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone regrets her actions]], Brandish learning about her mother's death causes her transformation into a villain.
235* WeUsedToBeFriends: Brandish, being an UnreliableExpositor, mistakenly thinks Layla killed Grammi over Aquarius's key, thus ending their friendship. However, [[SubvertedTrope it never occurs to her that Grammi]] ''[[SubvertedTrope did]]'' [[SubvertedTrope return the key because she felt unworthy of it after she inadvertently caused Layla's death, with the two remaining friends for the rest of their lives]].

242Also known as the Demons from the Book of Zeref. Feared far and wide as terrible forces of destruction, these demons live to carry out their creator's legacy of mayhem and death, believing this is what they were made for. In reality, they were born out of Zeref's desire to die and escape his cursed existence.

248
249* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Every Etherious that appears in the series is a remorseless killing machine, and they're one of the only groups of villains that Fairy Tail is willing to use lethal force against.
250* CantLiveWithoutYou: Zeref programmed all of them to die the moment his life would end. {{Justified|Trope}}, as Zeref didn't want to cause any more trouble once he was gone.
251* {{Curse}}: Their method of attack is curse power (''juhou''), which is distinct from magic (''mahou'') as [[ThePowerOfHate it draws purely from negative emotions]] and doesn't require Ether-nano to use.
252* MeaningfulName: Zeref so named them after creating them from the Ether-nano (raw magic energy) in Earth-land's atmosphere.
253* OneManArmy: Franmalth describes his kind as being capable of taking on an entire kingdom's military force. Only the most powerful groups and/or individual wizards can take them out.
254* OneWingedAngel: A good number of Etherious possess their own "Etherious Form", a more monstrous appearance that unleashes their true destructive potential.
255* PersonOfMassDestruction: All Etherious possess such a vast scale of power and deadly skills that they represent a serious threat across the continent of Ishgal.
256* SpellMyNameWithAnS: The Kodansha translation initially spelled their name as "Aetherious". This would've led to a DubInducedPlotHole when the [[FunWithAcronyms explicitly named]] "E.N.D." turned out to stand for "Etherious Natsu Dragneel" had it not been changed.
257* UndyingLoyalty: They are loyal to their creator, Zeref, and commit terrible acts of destruction and mayhem under the belief that this is part of his will.
258* WellDoneSonGuy: To Zeref, despite never having actually met him in person. Their primary goal is to meet him for the first time, and most of their villainy is merely them doing what they think Zeref wants from them.
259* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Fairy Tail has a ThouShaltNotKill rule against humans, but when given the opportunity against an Etherious, they have no issue taking their lives. {{Justified|Trope}} as Etherious are AlwaysChaoticEvil.

266[[caption-width-right:225:[[labelnote:Click here to see its demon form]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lullaby_ft_360.jpg[[/labelnote]]]]
267
268A demon flute crafted to lull all who hear its melody into an eternal slumber. The dark guild Eisenwald acquires it in a plot to assassinate Fiore's guild masters, not realizing the flute has a mind of its own.
269----
270* AmbiguousGender: It's rather difficult to pin down Lullaby's gender, especially since it talks with both a male and a female voice in the anime.
271* ArtifactOfDoom: Though its true form is a colossal demon, it commonly takes the form of a three-eyed, skull-shaped flute of death.
272* BrownNote: It is said to kill all who hear its melody, not that it ever gets a chance to demonstrate.
273* ButtMonkey: Despite its gargantuan size, it's a complete small-fry compared to Zeref's other demons, and is even treated as a bit of a joke in the anime.
274* DiabolusExNihilo: The demon comes out of the flute with no warning, is given a tiny bit of backstory as a servant of Zeref, and is made short work of almost as fast. Even Kageyama, the guy who stole the flute to use himself, knew nothing about the monster.
275* FluffyTheTerrible: A devilish instrument of death named after a bedtime song.
276* GreaterScopeVillain: Of the Lullaby arc. It's Erigor who leads Eisenwald to kill the guild masters, but Lullaby is more powerful.
277* {{Hypocrite}}: It fearfully calls Natsu a monster in the anime after seeing him [[FeedItWithFire suck up the flames left by its attacks]]. This is coming from [[RentAZilla a textbook example of a monster]].
278* LogicalWeakness: In the anime, Natsu and co.'s attacks wind up punching holes in Lullaby's body, which messes up its sound and renders it unable to play its music. Given that it is essentially still a flute in its demon form, this doesn't come as a surprise to our heroes.
279* MagicMusic: Its sound causes death to those who hear it.
280* MeaningfulName: A lullaby is a song one plays to help someone fall asleep. It [[FluffyTheTerrible doesn't sound so terrifying]] until Lucy realizes that this particular flute's song forces those who hear it into eternal sleep.
281* OneWingedAngel: Turns from a flute into a demon.
282* RentAZilla: Its true form is large enough to step on your average building.
283* VoiceOfTheLegion: In the anime, it speaks with two overlapping voices: a [[EvilSoundsRaspy raspy masculine voice]] and a [[AltoVillainess deep feminine voice]].

287!!Deliora
288[[quoteright:224:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/deliora_ft_2734.jpg]]
289
290A demon who rampaged across Earth-land ten years ago, killing the families of Gray and many others until the ice wizard Ur sacrificed herself to defeat him. Though no longer an active threat, Deliora's legacy comes back to haunt Gray several times.
291----
292* AndIMustScream: He spent nearly a decade trapped in ice that cannot melt through normal means that constantly drained his energy. He'd been in there for so long that when he was finally released, he died on the spot.
293* ArchEnemy: Served as this for eight-year-old Gray, who dedicated himself to learning magic for the sole purpose of defeating him, although Ur managed to kill him before Gray ever had the chance to.
294* BreathWeapon: Depicted as a fiery breath in the manga, and a WaveMotionGun in the anime.
295* ChekhovsGunman: Subverted. At first it seems Deliora has returned in the Tartaros arc as one of the Nine Demon Gates, possessing the body of Gray's father Silver to take revenge. Then it turns out it was a bluff Silver pulled on Gray so [[DeathSeeker he'd get riled up enough to kill him]].
296* GreaterScopeVillain: Of the Galuna Island arc. Lyon seeks to free him so he can defeat him and boost his own ego. He's also a key figure in Gray's backstory, killing his parents and Ur.
297* HarmlessFreezing: Subverted. He seems perfectly fine at first once the Iced Shell starts to melt, only for him to die not long after he's free.
298* KillItWithIce: Ur defeats Deliora by using Iced Shell, a DangerousForbiddenTechnique that perma-freezes the demon by turning her own body into ice, and slowly kills him over the course of 10 years.
299* KnightOfCerebus: While Fairy Tail has dealt with death and peril before, Deliora's introduction and dark history with Gray mark the series' first real case of CerebusSyndrome. This is especially evident in the anime, which took a [[LighterAndSofter lighter]] and [[DenserAndWackier sillier]] approach to the story up until his first appearance, which plays out virtually free of any gags.
300* {{Leitmotif}}: His anime theme comes with OminousLatinChanting, or [[CanisLatinicus something of that ilk]].
301* LiterallyShatteredLives: His body crumbles apart shortly after being thawed out of its ice prison.
302* RedBaron: He is known as the "Demon of Destruction".
303* RentAZilla: Certainly fits the bill of a giant monster that leveled whole cities across an entire continent, and has a BreathWeapon to boot.
304* SealedEvilInACan: He's found frozen in a giant block of ice, and Lyon's goal in the Galuna Island arc is to release him. However, being stuck in the "can" for 10 years proves lethal in this case; by the time Deliora is finally let out, he's already dead.
305* TheUnfought: The Galuna Island arc builds Deliora up as the ultimate enemy Fairy Tail has to face on the island. When he's finally unleashed after the climactic battle against the ArcVillain, he drops dead before the confrontation even starts.
306* VillainousLegacy: Even in death, he still has ways to cause misery for Gray in death, with Silver [[InvokedTrope invoking]] this trope in the Tartaros arc by pretending to be the demon brought BackFromTheDead to test Gray's resolve and [[DeathSeeker put himself out of his misery]].
307* TheVoiceless: It is assumed that Deliora can speak like other Etherious when Silver masquerades as him, but he never does.

312The residents of Galuna Island, who are seemingly cursed to bear the forms of demons as a side effect of Lyon's Moon Drip spell. In reality, they are demons who take on human form, and the spell affected their memory of it. Unlike the Etherious, these demons are friendly towards humans.

314[[folder:Galuna Islanders in General]]
315[[quoteright:260:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/galuna_villagers.png]]
316* BeautyEqualsGoodness: Subverted. They fear transforming permanently into mindless, hideous demons, but when they regain their memories, they retain their demonic appearances full-time.
317* CuteMonsterGirl: The female islanders, such as Lulu, are this.
318* DarkIsNotEvil: They are demons, yes, but they're also some of the downright nicest people Fairy Tail has had the pleasure of helping.
319* LaserGuidedAmnesia: The properties of Moon Drip have an adverse effect on demons' memories, making them believe they are human.
320* {{Lunacy}}: Subverted. They appear to shapeshift only at night under the light of the moon, which has apparently been tainted purple by the Moon Drip. It's actually a translucent film of crystallized purple mist, and it has no real effect on their transformations.
321* OurDemonsAreDifferent: These guys are benevolent, unlike the genuinely evil and destructive Etherious created by Zeref.
322* TomatoInTheMirror: They think their demonic forms are part of a curse caused by the Moon Drip spell being cast by Lyon and his followers. When it becomes apparent that Moon Drip doesn't affect humans, it's discovered that they were demons all along.
323* VoluntaryShapeshifting: They can assume human form to disguise themselves from other people. When under the effects of Moon Drip, however, their transformations grow [[InvoluntaryShapeshifting out of control]].

329
330The feisty village chief of Galuna Island.
331----
332* CharacterExaggeration: In the manga, he wants Fairy Tail to destroy the moon only because he believes it will remove the curse that turned everyone in his village into demons. In the anime, he blames ''everything'' that goes wrong on the "curse of the moon", and keeps pestering Fairy Tail over when they're going to destroy it.
333* HotBloodedSideburns: He has jumbo-sized sideburns and a fiery temper.
334* MyGreatestFailure: Moka is wracked with grief over having to kill his own son when he fully succumbed to the "curse". It's subverted later with TheReveal that they were all demons to begin with, and his son is alive and well.
335* TearsOfJoy: When Moka finds out that Bobo isn't dead.

342Moka's son, who ferries Fairy Tail to Galuna Island to lift the curse on his people.
343----
344* CurseEscapeClause: He somehow avoided falling under the effects of Moon Drip, and was ironically freaked out when the other islanders started believing they were cursed humans. When he tried reminding the others that they were actually demons, however, they thought he lost his humanity entirely.
345* TheFerryman: He plays the role of mysterious boatman who brings Fairy Tail to a supposedly cursed island, and mysteriously vanishes mid-course.
346* NotQuiteDead: After he vanishes, he is mistaken for a ghost by Fairy Tail after they hear he was killed by his father. In reality, he simply flew away so the villagers wouldn't spot him and throw a fit until they were returned to their right minds.
347* SuperToughness: He survived being [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impaled by a spear]] and has a good laugh about it.

354
355The god of life and death. Despite never making a physical appearance, Ankhselam's actions have affected Earth-land at an extremely profound level for the last four centuries.
356----
357* BerserkButton: Trying to bring back the dead is about the biggest button you could press under this god's watch. Zeref not taking a hint and getting a little too close to figuring it out got him incurred with a truly horrific curse. Ankhselam also doesn't seem to have much patience for people who choose who lives and who dies for themselves, such as when Mavis is cursed for using Law.
358* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Heavily implied in the InMysteriousWays sense. The punishment Ankhselam gives to anyone who breaks the laws of life and death involves making somebody immortal, throwing the idea of life and death completely out the window.
359* DarkIsEvil: Its power is to spread all that is darkness and death.
360* DisproportionateRetribution: This god's idea of justice for someone [[TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow breaking the laws of life and death]]? Curse them so that everywhere they go, [[RevengeByProxy people will die in their presence]].
361* TheGhost: Ankhselam never makes a single on-screen appearance throughout the entire series.
362* GreaterScopeVillain: This god cursed Zeref with CompleteImmortality and his InstantDeathRadius to punish him for his forbidden research into bringing back the dead, making Ankhselam responsible for almost everything bad in the series that has nothing to do with Acnologia. Though it’s not personal, it’s just his job to keep life and death in balance.
363* JerkassGod: It inflicts the worst kind of curse imaginable on Zeref, who simply wanted to be with his dead brother again, and Mavis, who just wanted to save her friend's life.
364* KarmaHoudini: Ankhselam completely gets away with Zeref's descent into madness, and by extension just about everything wrong that happens in the series.
365* MeaningfulName: An [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankh ankh]] is an Egyptian symbol that represents life and the creation thereof, while "selam" is derived from the [[BilingualBonus Malay/Indonesian]] word for "horror", ''seram''. It's also the true name of Zeref's eponymous curse.
366* TheOmnipotent: It's indicated that this god is all-seeing and all-powerful, and continuing to provoke it, as Zeref and Mavis did, is considered ''very'' unwise.
367* OrcusOnHisThrone: Though its exact status as a "villain" is up in the air, Ankhselam only have directly impacts the story twice, when it curses Zeref and Mavis, despite being described as the most powerful being in the setting, capable of ''literally'' deciding who lives and who dies.
368* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: Ankhselam governs both life and death, and punishes anyone who tries to take that power into their own hands.
369* ThrowTheDogABone: Implied. In the last chapter, both Mavis and Zeref appear at the award ceremony with no memories of their past, possibly signifying that Ankhselam is satisfied that they've learned their lesson, and has given them another chance at life.
370* WalkingSpoiler: This god is a key figure in Zeref and Mavis' backstories, and is behind one of the series's biggest mysteries.

377One of the Yakuma Eighteen Battle Gods, summoned by Alok in his hopes of appeasing Zeref.
378----
379* BarbarianLongHair: Has a mane of hair behind his back, reminiscent of a lion's mane.
380* {{BFS}}: His sword is so massively huge, Natsu can do a BladeRun on it as if he were scaling a mountain.
381* DefeatEqualsExplosion: Natsu's Fire Dragon King's Demolition Fist sends an explosion that splits him right down the middle.
382* DavidVsGoliath: An impossibly colossal WarGod against a puny human tiny enough to stand on his forehead. Too bad for the god, that "human" is also the world's deadliest demon equipped with the power of the greatest fire dragon to ever live.
383* MeaningfulName: His name also means "link to war" in Japanese.
384* SuperStrength: The simple swing of his sword is enough to split the earth for seemingly miles ahead.
385* WarGod: He's part of an alleged pantheon of gods summoned by the Yakuma people. Minerva also specializes in summoning them.
386* TheWorfEffect: Oh boy, howdy. He is literally a nigh-indestructible god of war who could easily surpass most of Zeref's deadliest demons. His role in the story? To establish Natsu (a.k.a. E.N.D.) as the bigger force of destruction.

395
396A version of Lucy who comes from an alternate future resulting from the disaster that wiped out Fiore. To prevent the catastrophe from occurring, she uses the Eclipse Gate to travel from X792 to the present and loiters around Crocus to search for someone who can help. However, she ends up being pursued by Rogue Cheney's future counterpart in the process.
397
398->For tropes shared with and relating to the main timeline Lucy Heartfilia, see her entry on the [[Characters/FairyTailStrongestTeam Strongest Team]] page.
399----
400* AlternateSelf: She's the alternate version of the main timeline Lucy, who has suffered a HeroicBSOD from the disaster that plagued Fiore in her future timeline.
401* AnArmAndALeg: She loses her right hand, which is where her Fairy Tail guild mark is located at, and much of the forearm at some point in the BadFuture. This gets some {{Foreshadowing}} when we see her open a pen with her mouth and write almost illegibly with her left hand.
402* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Once Eclipse is destroyed and all the time travelers fade back to their original time periods, Lucy's dead body awakens in what can only described as heaven: a vast, golden field with all her deceased guildmates waiting for her.
403* BlemishedBeauty: Even after suffering the loss of her right hand in her BadFuture, she is still depicted as being just as much TheCutie in terms of looks as her present AlternateSelf is shown to be. It certainly helps that she [[ClothingConcealedInjury uses her cloak to]] [[HidingTheHandicap hide the handicap]] from everyone which makes the loss of her right hand less noticeable.
404* BreakTheCutie: She was once a normal and nice girl who was a member of Fairy Tail. Then, the disaster that plagued Fiore kicks in and it all goes downhill from there.
405* BrokenBird: Things ''really'' went south for Future Lucy after watching her home burn to the ground and most of her friends die horribly in the disaster that wiped out Fiore.
406* CreateYourOwnVillain: By using Eclipse to prevent the disaster that would've wiped out Fiore in X791, she inadvertently created Future Rogue's timeline where Acnologia takes over. This results in the time-traveling Rogue from X798 creating a ''third'' timeline (i.e., the "main" timeline) where he hijacks Eclipse to make sure Lucy fails.
407* DeadAlternateCounterpart: This version of Lucy rescues her present counterpart from the X798 Rogue's attack, but at the cost of her own life.
408* DiedInYourArmsTonight: In the arms of her own X791 counterpart, no less, after Future Rogue's blast.
409* DyingMomentOfAwesome: When the alternate Rogue from X798 fires his magic blade at the X791 Lucy, her future counterpart jumps in the way at the last second, dying as a result.
410* ForcedToWatch: In her timeline, Lucy was forced to watch her guild and her friends burn to the ground when the disaster in Fiore took place.
411* GoOutWithASmile: She dies crying TearsOfJoy, due to her LastRequest of seeing her X791 self's guild emblem being fulfilled.
412* HeartbrokenBadass: The loss of her fellow guildmates to the catastrophe in Fiore sent her into a HeroicBSOD.
413* HelpYourselfInThePast: This is her main goal. Fairy Tail is more or less wiped out during her timeline, and she will to do anything to SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong, even at the cost of her own life.
414* HeroicBSOD: She's been stuck in a long one since she lost her friends and her home to Fiore's destruction.
415* HeroicSacrifice: She leaps in front of her present counterpart to shield her from a lethal blast Future Rogue shoots at her; after all, if the X791 Lucy dies, so would her X792 counterpart.
416* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: This is how the X792 Lucy gets taken out: she shields her present counterpart from the X798 Rogue's shadow blade, and is stabbed in the gut as a result.
417* InTheHood: She wears a hooded robe to conceal her true identity.
418* KilledOffForReal: Despite Eclipse's destruction, this version of Lucy doesn't get to come back to life thanks to her HeroicSacrifice and her death wasn't undone.
419* KillTheCutie: She rescues her present self from the X798 Rogue's fatal attack at the cost of her own life.
420* LastRequest: In her final moments, the X792 Lucy asks to see the Fairy Tail emblem on her present counterpart's right hand one last time, because she lost her right arm, and tells Natsu to protect the future.
421* MirrorCharacter:
422** She and Future Rogue both come from futures in which dragons have destroyed the word, the dragon Acnologia destroying Future Rogue's timeline while a hoard of ten thousand dragons destroyed Future Lucy's timeline. Both have lost loved ones and even a body part with Future Rogue losing his right eye while Future Lucy having lost her right hand, which caused them to fall into despair and lost. The key difference is that Future Lucy comes back in time to save everyone and stop the coming ten thousand dragons from bringing disaster while Future Rogue wants to ensure it happens.
423** She and the Dragon Acnologia both tried to save people from dragons. Both have even lost a hand with Future Lucy losing her right hand while Acnologia lost his left hand. But while Acnologia fell into his despair and anger, eventually becoming no better than the dragons who took everything from him, Future Lucy was able to stay true to her morals, in spite of losing everything, to the very end.
424** She and Zeref both lost loved ones to dragons and watched Natsu be killed by fire dragons, and were the only survivors of the attacks. Both wanted to return to the past so their tragedies could be averted, but while Zeref changed his mind and decided not to go through with time travel, Future Lucy did.
425* NoBodyLeftBehind: She disappears once Natsu destroys Eclipse to thwart the disaster in Fiore for good.
426* NotMeThisTime: Jellal and Arcadios think Future Lucy is responsible for the Eclipse Plan. In fact, Future Rogue is the one who tricks Hisui into opening Eclipse and causing the catastrophe in Fiore.
427* RedHerringMole: The Lucy from the X792 timeline is suspected by Jellal and Arcadios of being TheWomanBehindTheMan of the Eclipse Plan, lying to and manipulating the heroes when facts about her just don't add up, such as appearing a day earlier than she says she did. Then, it turns out that the time-traveling Rogue from X798 is responsible for causing the Eclipse Plan.
428* TheRemnant: She's the only member of Fairy Tail that survived the dragon attack in her timeline. The rest are all dead.
429* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: She comes back to the past to warn Fairy Tail of the dragon invasion and hopefully help prevent her BadFuture. Sadly, she gets killed TakingTheBullet for her main timeline counterpart.
430* SoleSurvivor: By the time she arrives in X791, she's the last living Fairy Tail member due to her friends getting killed by the dragons in her timeline.
431* SpannerInTheWorks: Future Rogue doesn't account for her existence when he tries murdering the main timeline's Lucy, the only one capable of interfering with his plans.
432* TakingTheBullet: When Rogue's future counterpart attempts to kill her present self, Lucy's X792 counterpart jumps in the way and takes the blast meant for her, which leads to her death.
433* TogetherInDeath: After she disappears following Eclipse's destruction, she is reunited with her dead friends in a golden field.
434* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: She wanted to protect the future and save the life of her dead guild mates with the hope of preventing the dragons from destroying the world.
435* TragicTimeTraveler: She comes from a future where Fiore was devastated and she was left the SoleSurvivor among her crew. She travels back in time in order to try avert said future, but ends up losing her life in order to save her present counterpart in the process.
436* TraumaCongaLine: Everything we see from her eyes of what she experienced in her time was exactly as she described as hell. From being helpless to watching her love ones die, to losing her arm, and just about this close to crossing the DespairEventHorizon, it's no wonder she ended up a BrokenBird. To top it all off, she rescues her present self at the cost of her own life.
437* WalkingSpoiler: Well, yeah. InTheHood is usually a dead giveaway for this trope.
438* WatchingTroyBurn: In her timeline, Lucy can only watch helplessly as her home gets burned down by the dragons.
439* WoundThatWillNotHeal: After she's been stabbed by Future Rogue's shadow blade, [[HealingHands Wendy]] desperately tries to heal her, but the shadows of the attack cling to the wound and prevent her from fixing the damage.

454
455The son of renowned author Kemu Zaleon. He is determined to destroy ''Daybreak'' to preserve his father's legacy.
456----
457* AdaptationDyeJob: He appears to have straight-up black hair in the manga, which is changed to gray in the anime.
458* EyesAlwaysShut: The only time his eyes open are his wide-eyed awe at learning ''Daybreak'' is secretly his father's masterpiece and memoir, ''[[SignificantAnagram Dear Kaby]]''.
459* MockMillionaire: He and his wife appear to live in a BigFancyHouse and offer Natsu, Lucy, and Happy a reward of 2 million Jewels to burn ''Daybreak''. The three later find out that they're actually dirt poor and were merely borrowing the house they were in.
460* PartingWordsRegret: He called Kemu a poor excuse for a writer and a father before he [[DrivenToSuicide committed suicide]]. Since then, a remorseful Kaby vowed to at least make it up to him by destroying the book that ruined him.
461* WhoNamesTheirKidDude: Natsu and Happy remark on how "tasty" his surname sounds.

467
468A world-famous novelist and wizard who died shortly after completing his final work, ''Daybreak'', believed to have been the worst book he had ever written.
469----
470* AnArmAndALeg: He was so serious about never writing again after ''Daybreak'', he actually chopped off his own writing arm.
471* BreakTheHaughty: To a minor degree. He was known to boast about his accomplishments as a writer, and is implied to have insulted Everlue when he requested the commission for ''Daybreak''. As a result, he was forced to swallow his pride when Everlue threatened harm to his family if he didn't write the book, and was then detained for three years.
472* DrivenToSuicide: He committed suicide shortly after finishing ''Daybreak'' and knowing his son was in no mood to forgive him. This was {{bowdlerized}} in the anime.
473* GambitRoulette: The spell he cast on ''Daybreak'' that rearranged its true content could only be broken by fire. It's almost as if he anticipated his son's attempt to burn it.
474* MyGreatestFailure: {{Subverted|Trope}}. It was thought that Zekua swore off writing because of the horrible circumstances that surrounded ''Daybreak'', which itself was appallingly written. In reality, the book was his ''magnum opus'', a memoir dedicated to his son, that was rearranged to keep it untouched from Everlue.
475* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: [[AristocratsAreEvil Duke Everlue]] forced him into writing ''Daybreak'' by threatening to revoke his entire family's citizenship, which would prevent them from joining any guilds and destroy their livelihood.
476* SignificantAnagram: "Kemu Zaleon" is his pen name, rearranged from his real name "Zekua Melon". The title of his final work, ''Daybreak'', is also an anagram for ''Dear Kaby'', dedicated to his son Kaby.

482[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Ur_Proposed_Prof_2737.jpg]]
483
484The mother of Ultear Milkovich, and a powerful ice wizard who taught Lyon and Gray magic. She freezes the demon Deliora to protect her students, at the cost of her own body.
485----
486* ActionMom: She's a single parent and one of the strongest ice wizards of her country.
487* AndIMustScream: It is stated that while Iced Shell turned her body into ice, she remains alive in this form. Even when Makarov states that melting the ice would be akin to killing Ur, both Gray and Lyon believe that she's still alive to this day as part of the ocean.
488* AnArmAndALeg: She lost her leg fighting Deliora and fashioned a temporary replacement out of ice.
489* BackFromTheDead: A {{downplayed|Trope}} example when Neinhart creates a Historia of her based on Gray and Lyon's memories so she can fight them.
490* BadassTeacher: She's one of the most powerful ice wizards to ever live, and her students ended up becoming quite powerful in their own right.
491* BerserkButton: She hates the notion that Lyon and Gray are ReplacementGoldfish for her daughter, slapping Lyon for even insinuating it.
492* BoyishShortHair: Unlike her daughter, she's a spunky woman who keeps her hair short.
493* BrokeYourArmPunchingOutCthulhu: She single-handedly defeated Deliora, one of the most infamous forces of destruction in Ishgal next to Acnologia, but she had to destroy her own body to make that possible.
494* BrokenAce: She is said to have been the strongest wizard on her side of the continent, and likely would have become a Wizard Saint had she not sacrificed herself. However, she was also a grieving mother who was misled to believe her young daughter died, and would never learn the truth for as long as she lived.
495* BrokenPedestal: Ur became one to Ultear as a child. They happily lived together until Ultear was discovered to have too much magic inside her. Then, she was taken to a laboratory where scientists performed torturous experiments on her. After escaping from the laboratory, Ultear saw her mother with Gray and Lyon and perceived it as ParentalAbandonment. As such, she decided to concoct a plan to travel back in time and kill her. Towards the end of Fairy Tail and Grimoire Heart's guild war on Sirius Island, Ur becomes a RebuiltPedestal to Ultear after realizing that she did love her all along.
496* DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou: Ur left her daughter at the Ministry of Magical Development to be treated for magic sickness, only to later be told that Ultear died and was horribly mutilated in the operation. In reality, the doctors were conducting horrific experiments on her and didn't want word getting out. The last straw for Ultear was when she fled and saw her mother training with Gray and Lyon, causing her to grow up into a psychopathic and hate-driven wizard who plotted to [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge exact revenge on Ur for seemingly abandoning her]].
497* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: Iced Shell is a forbidden spell that permanently freezes its target, but turns the caster into that very same ice to do so. Ur wound up using this technique as a last-ditch effort to stop Deliora.
498* EveryoneHasStandards: She's not above anyone stripping nearly naked when it comes to training, even if children are involved. Stripping in public, however, is a whole other can of worms.
499* GhostMemory: After being melted in her ice form and drifting out to sea, Ur can impart her memories onto Ultear when she falls into the ocean in the Sirius Island arc, helping her realize the truth of her ParentalAbandonment.
500* HeroicBSOD: She goes through a brief one when the doctors tell her that Ultear died and was horribly mutilated in the operation.
501* HeroicSacrifice: Ur rescues Gray and Lyon by using Iced Shell to freeze herself and Deliora.
502* HumbleHero: She has been said time and again to be the strongest wizard on her side of the world. However, she knew there were far more powerful wizards out there. According to ''Ice Trail'', she realized this when she ran into none other than Gildarts, Fairy Tail's own resident powerhouse.
503* AnIcePerson: She is one of the strongest Ice Make wizards in the entire series, using her powers to permanently freeze one of the Etherious demons, Deliora. Her Historia was capable of giving Lyon and Gray trouble despite both of them having grown leaps and bounds past what they were when they were under her, up to the point one of her Ice Make spells ''simulates a volcanic eruption''.
504* LaserGuidedKarma: She left her daughter in the care of scientists who subjected her to unethical experiments. That daughter was Ultear Milkovich, who grew up to be a psychopathic and hate-driven woman who joined Grimoire Heart, manipulated Jellal into constructing the Tower of Heaven, and plotted to exact revenge on Ur for seemingly abandoning her.
505* MamaBear: She may not consider Gray and Lyon to be her actual children, but she's not afraid to stand before a demon (one of Zeref's creations no less) and refuse to let anymore harm come to a young Gray and Lyon. She succeed in stopping Deliora forever.
506* TheMentor: She teaches Gray and Lyon Ice Make magic after taking them in as her adoptive sons.
507* MentorOccupationalHazard: As a StudentAndMasterTeam with Gray and Lyon, she sealed Deliora's body in ice at the cost of losing her body to protect her students.
508* MissingMom: She is one for Ultear, having been misled to believe that she lost her daughter in a horrific medical accident, and later dying to protect Gray and Lyon.
509* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Because she left Ultear in the care of the scientists who subject her to torturous experiments, it's essentially Ur's fault that her daughter became a villain. However, the blame is considerably mitigated by the fact that Ur had no idea what the scientists were up to until it was too late and never would have left her daughter with them if she had known.
510* NotQuiteDead: Her body is actually the ice that sealed Deliora, and she continues to watch over her two students.
511* ParentalSubstitute: {{Defied|Trope}}; although she loved Gray and Lyon dearly, she never actually considered herself their mother, as she didn't want to see them as replacements to her real daughter.
512* PosthumousCharacter: To a certain extent since she's technically still alive when she appears in her ice form, though from Lyon's viewpoint, she might as well be dead all the same.
513* SexyMentor: Runs around in her underwear while teaching Gray and Lyon.
514* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Running around in the frigid snow in nothing but her underwear is all a part of her training. However, she does have standards against going naked in public, which Gray [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn failed to pick up on]].
515* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Crunchyroll's anime subtitles and Animax's English dub spell her name out as "Ul" to match her daughter's name, Ultear. However, the translations by Kodansha and Funimation have stated that Ultear's real name is "Urtear", which was deliberately changed InUniverse, thus making "Ur" the proper spelling.
516* StrongFamilyResemblance: Her daughter is the spitting image of her, albeit with longer hair.
517* TakeOffYourClothes: A gender-flipped version occurred when she stripped in front of an 8-year-old Gray and told him to do the same, all to get accustomed to the cold.
518* TearsOfJoy: According to the story of her daughter's birth, she named her daughter "Ultear" (or "Urtear", which Ultear changed in a plot point exclusive to certain official translations) after the tears of joy she dropped upon her newborn baby's head.
519* WorkoutFanservice: Like Gray and Lyon, she ran around in her underwear to train.

526
527The manager of the Scheherazade Theater Company. He often requests Fairy Tail to put on plays for him, however terrible they may be.
528----
529* BitchInSheepsClothing: He seems sympathetic enough when he imparts his sob story of how he was abandoned by his whole troupe and even his wife due to his lack of success. But when Fairy Tail agrees to help save his theater, though, he scoffs at the idea of letting amateurs perform for him.
530* CatchPhrase: "Thank you very much!"
531* CombatCommentator: Appears on the fourth day of the Grand Magic Games as a guest speaker.
532* EveryoneHasStandards: A {{Jerkass}} he may be, but even he can't stand to watch Minerva's vicious NoHoldsBarredBeatdown of Lucy in the Grand Magic Games.
533* HairAntennae: He has what appears to be two knobs of hair sticking out from the sides of his head.
534* {{Jerkass}}: He's extremely strict and forces Natsu's team to repeat their performances several times a day for over a week before agreeing to pay them.
535* SpellMyNameWithAnS: It's spelled "Lavian" in the Funimation dub.
536* StylisticSuck: He's known for writing nonsensical plots for his productions, which have resulted in a string of bad reviews.
537* UngratefulBastard: {{Parodied|Trope}} and {{inverted|Trope}}. He often thanks people even when he shouldn't, but becomes a whole lot more stuck up whenever he ''should'' be grateful.

544
545A hyperactive reporter of the magazine ''Weekly Sorcerer'' who often visits wizard guilds to get the latest inside scoops.
546----
547* BenevolentBoss: The anime emphasizes his role as a tough but fair boss for Lucy during her internship at ''Weekly Sorcerer''.
548* CameraFiend: In addition to being a reporter, he also does photo shoots for ''Weekly Sorcerer''.
549* CatchPhrase: "[[GratuitousEnglish Cooooool!]]"
550* ChivalrousPervert: The thought of having a fully naked cover spread sends him into a tizzy, and the first thing that comes to mind when Lucy comes asking for a job is to make her a glamor model. To his credit, though, he respects Lucy's desire to pursue a journalist career instead, and he's nothing short of supportive of her when she leaves to reform the guild.
551* CombatCommentator: On the second day of the Grand Magic Games.
552* HairAntennae: He has a single spike of hair sticking up, which [[ExpressiveHair wiggles when he senses a big scoop]].
553* HeroWorship: He absolutely adores Fairy Tail and gushes over their accomplishments, [[DestructiveSavior property damage and all]].
554* HotBloodedSideburns: They go with his incredibly hyper personality.
555* IntrepidReporter: As mentioned, he's a reporter for ''Weekly Sorcerer'' and is very likely to get beaten up by Natsu.

557* NiceGuy: Apart from his hyperactivity, he's an incredibly cool guy and becomes a good friend of Lucy's.

576* DodgyToupee: One that changes every day of the Grand Magic Games, and gets blown off at least [[OnceAnEpisode once each day]] during the force of a powerful magic attack.
577* DubNameChange: A minor version: his name is flipped around to "Lola Chapati" in the Kodansha translation of the manga.

588----
589* DidTheyOrDidntThey: Wendy's face turns red as a beet as Loke whispers to her about how he interrogated Michellia over her grandfather. The dub takes an extra step further as Wendy recognizes her as the one Loke "did things" with.
590* SmallRoleBigImpact: Loke managed to learn her grandfather's whereabouts from her on one of his...[[DidTheyOrDidntThey dates]]. Thanks to that, Fairy Tail gained valuable intel about Face.
591* TheUglyGuysHotDaughter: Granddaughter, to be more specific, but Michellia has none of Michello's cartoony, catlike traits.

598
599Irene Belserion's husband, who married her to settle a political dispute between their countries. He is also the father of Erza Scarlet.
600----
601* AdaptationalNiceGuy: {{Subverted|Trope}}. The anime humanizes him somewhat during flashbacks to the Dragon King Festival, showing him fighting by her side and comforting her while she's mourning Belserion's death, but it's all just to feed into his BaitTheDog moment and add to the sting of his betrayal.
602* BaitTheDog: According to Irene, he showed some semblance of care by consoling her after the death of her beloved dragon advisor. When she started to change into the same monster as Acnologia, however, all of this guy's sympathetic qualities fly out the window.
603* BullyingADragon: His response to seeing his wife start to unwillingly transform into a dragon is to imprison her, torture her, strip her naked and string her up in the public square to humiliate her, boldly declare his intent to execute her, and then threaten her unborn child. For bonus points in the anime, he continues to decry her as a threat to humanity when her transformation fully takes hold. How he could possibly have thought that would turn out well boggles the mind.
604* BureaucraticallyArrangedMarriage: He had this with Irene. While he makes some effort to be a supportive husband at first, that is all rendered moot when she starts turning into a dragon.
605* CreateYourOwnVillain: He is ''directly'' responsible for Irene's final transformation into a villain. If he had at least tried to help Irene, or was at least willing to be there for her while she transformed instead of going full VanHelsingHateCrimes on her and their unborn daughter, not only would Irene likely not have killed him, but she may not be one of Zeref's cruelest and most powerful followers.
606* DeathByOriginStory: He's a significant figure in Irene's life and his death is what leads to her FaceHeelTurn.
607* DoNotTauntCthulhu: After committing VanHelsingHateCrimes towards Irene one too many times, he gets stomped to death for his troubles.
608* FourStarBadass: He's a general, and he not only fought on the front lines alongside Irene in the Dragon King Festival, but walked away unscathed.
609* HateSink: Apart from setting up a good part of Irene's StartOfDarkness, his ColdBloodedTorture and public humiliation of his pregnant wife for three years, followed by his attempt to kill her baby by cutting open her stomach, firmly makes him a despicable character.
610* KarmicDeath: He is killed by the very wife he tortured for years.
611* NamedByTheAdaptation: While he has NoNameGiven in the original manga, the anime names him Rung.
612* PerpetualFrowner: The page image is the closest he ever comes to a smile.
613* PosthumousCharacter: Even if he survived Irene's rampage, he lived well over 400 years ago, so he never stood a chance of surviving into the series.
614* ThatThingIsNotMyChild: He actively tried to kill his own daughter, Erza, before her birth, just to prove there was no child between him and his semi-dragon wife. To his credit, however, Erza didn't grow for the three years she was in the womb, and would remain in total stasis for 400 years, with no way of knowing for sure her mother was pregnant besides her own word.
615* TooDumbToLive: While imprisoning Irene for fear that she would turn into a second Acnologia can easily be justified, his decision to torture and publicly humiliate her in a city square filled with defenseless civilians clearly goes far past any benchmark of racism, fantastic or otherwise, and into full-blown utter idiocy. Then he decides to walk into her cell to mock her and kill her unborn baby, which seals his fate.
616* UndignifiedDeath: Simply being stomped to death after goading his pregnant wife into full-on dragon mode is an embarrassing way to go.
617* VanHelsingHateCrimes: He holds this against his own wife because she unwittingly started to transform into a dragon like Acnologia before her. Rather than abide by her pleading to be human again by trying to find a cure for her transformation, he decides to make her life hell purely out of fear that Irene will become the same monster as Acnologia.
618* VillainousBreakdown: Once he pushes Irene into full-on dragon mode, he spends the last few moments of his life shrieking in terror and pathetically swinging his sword at her.
619* WalkingSpoiler: Not only is he a major player in Irene's motivation to becoming a villain, he is also Erza's father.
620* WeHardlyKnewYe: Killed off in the same chapter as when he was introduced.

630
631Two partygoers seen in attendance at a certain award ceremony. They look awfully familiar...
632----
633* AmbiguousSituation: Their resemblance to Mavis and Zeref is never spelled out. Did Ankhselam bring them BackFromTheDead with amnesia? Are they [[OrWasItADream figments of Lucy's dream]] of the party? Or are they just {{Identical Stranger}}s? Add the Beta Heaven scenario in ''100 Years Quest'' and it becomes even harder to sort out.
634* TheDitz: Mio. She gets so distracted by the hot August weather that she forgets to put shoes on outdoors because she was evidently more comfortable shoeless. Alios notices she's barefoot and rather than chide her on it, he shares a laugh with Mio and considers shedding his own shoes.
635* IdenticalStranger: Assuming they're different people, they both look exactly like Mavis and Zeref, but don't seem to know each other or anyone else at the party.
636* IronicEcho: The two first meet during the month of August, the same month Zeref and Mavis first met and Zeref coincidentally named his - unbeknownst to him - son after, noticing his resemblance to Mavis.
637* {{Irony}}: Alios is an amateur novelist. Zeref, of whom Alios is either a reincarnation or an IdenticalStranger, wrote an entire library's worth of [[TomeOfEldritchLore books of black magic]]. If Alios is a reincarnation, then Ankhselam has a really twisted sense of humor.
638* MeetCute: Sparks immediately fly between them after Alios picks up Mio's dropped handkerchief.
639* ReincarnationRomance: {{Implied|Trope}}. Both Mavis and Zeref [[DisappearsIntoLight vanished into light]], so if they really are Mio and Alios, then they were brought back by Ankhselam to begin their romance anew.
640* WalkingSpoiler: They both give a [[AmbiguousSituation vague clue]] to the ultimate fates of Mavis and Zeref, who are otherwise presumed dead.
