Fairy Tail (guild)

Fairy Tail is a guild that features in Fairy Tail.

History

Fairy Tail was the name of a magical guild that existed in the world of Earthland. It was founded by a group of treasurers that had travelled to the town of Magnolia to recover the Tenrou Orb that was in possession of the Blue Skull dark magic guild. With Magnolia freed from the wizards, the team of treasure hunters debated on the future of their group as Vermillion considered returning to her home on Tenrou Island. Whilst having a meal with the grateful town folk, she came to hear their worries about an uncertain future now that Blue Skull were defeated. It was then that Mavis decided that she would form a guild of her own that would be based in the town and supported by its inhabitants. As a result, Mavis Vermilion became the first guild master of the newly created Fairy Tail guild that counted Precht Gaebolg, Warrod Sequen and Yuri Dreyar who were her companions. It was formally established as a guild X686 where its headquarters was in Magnolia whilst Tenrou Island was considered sacred ground. In that year, the guild participated in the First Trade Wars where Mavis displayed exceptional strategic skill in leading the allied forces to victory despite holding only a few soldiers leading to her gaining the epithet of the Fairy Tactician. At the request of Mavis, leadership of the guild fell to Precht Gaebolg who was made the second guild master of Fairy Tail. Vermilion was noted to had died sometime afterwards and upon her death she was buried on her home of Tenrou Island. He led the group until he began to secretly practice dark magic causing him to pass the position of leadership to Makarov Dreyar.

In X791, in an effort to rise among the guilds, the members of Fairy Tail decided to participate in that years Grand Magic Games. To ensure a victory, Grandmaster Makarov Dreyar had two teams dispatched for the games with the first not being aware of the second. Both teams managed to pass through the preliminary rounds allowing them to compete in the games.

Whilst observing, Master Mavis kept an eye on the tactics of the various combatants in the game and made calculations on a strategy to defeat them. She shared her findings with the guild members participating so that they had a plan in place for the final round of the Grand Magic Games. This led to her being responsible for Operation Fairy Star with her calculations proving accurate and securing key victories in the games for the guild.

In the wake of the Tartaros attack, the guild hall remained ruined and Grandmaster Makarov had all knowledge of the Lumen Histoire removed from the minds of the people. Makarov then decided that the end of an era had come and that guild members needed to spread their wings if they wanted to grow as people. Thus, he decided not to re-build the guild hall and instead decided to disband Fairy Tail for reasons he did not declare to the guild members. Instead, he told them to start new lives and forget about Fairy Tail whereupon he disappeared from public life. As a result, the guild members scattered where they attempted to start new lives though many of them came to struggle and miss their former guild. In the year that followed, Lucy Heartfilia began writing for Sorcerer Weekly and also using her time to track her comrades down. She eventually came upon Natsu who declared that he wanted to reform the Fairy Tail guild with the two looking to gather others. Eventually, she sent letters to all the members that she had located and asked them to convene at the guild's former home town of Magnolia in order to rebuild Fairy Tail. To comply with the Magic Council's rules, the guild nominated Erza Scarlet to the position of guild master whereupon Mest informed her Fairy Tail's greatest secret which was the Lumen Histore. He also informed her that Master Makarov had disbanded the guild in an attempt to protect them from the militaristic might of the Alvarez Empire. Makarov had departed to negotiate with the empire on the Western Continent but had been missing for sometime leading to Scarlet and her closest comrades staging a rescue mission. They managed to recover Makarov with the aid of their comrades whereupon Makarov resumed position as the guild master where he revealed that the Black Wizard Zeref was leader of the Alvarez Empire who intended to wage war against Ishgar. Despite this threat, Fairy Tail rallied under their master and prepared to battle the empire.

Overview

As a magical guild, all members of Fairy Tail primarily consisted of individuals skilled in the magic arts. This meant that they had the ability to use magic power and specialised in various magical skills. Similar to other Guilds, Fairy Tail was headed by a Guild Master with this position being passed between member to member. At the request of its founder, the guild's prime attribute was the idea of friendship and that all its members were to treat the other as family who supported one another.

One of the sub-groups within the guild was the Thunder God Tribe that consisted of three members who served Laxus Dreyar.

Wizards that held potential and power went through the S-Class Mage Promotion Trial. It was held every year where the Master selected the most prominent members to participate in the event to promote the wizard to an S-Class Mage.

Every year, the guild conducted the Fantasia parade during the time of the Harvest Festival whereby Fairy Tail wizards displayed their magic in fantastic performances. This was done to the benefit of the whole population in their home town. As a result, both guild members and the civilian population of the town looked forward to the coming of the Fantasia festival.

Serious breaches of the rules of the guild meant expulsion from their ranks.

Outside their guild house, a sacred area of the group was Tenrou Island that was isolated from the rest of the world. It had the Great Tenrou Tree that bestowed its mystical blessing on all members of the Fairy Tail guild. The island was the resting site of the first master of the guild and it was because of this that the area was used for Fairy Tail's trials to promote its members up their ranks.

The greatest secret of the guild was the Lumen Histoire (光の神話ルーメン・イストワール Rūmen Isutowāru) that was powerful magic that was also known as the Fairy Heart (妖精の心臓フェアリーハート Fearī Hāto). Such was its importance that only guild masters were meant to know of its existence and location.
