Biography

Origin

Erza Scarlet in Fairy Tail v1 #34.

Erza Scarlet (Japanese: エルザ・スカーレット, Hepburn: Eruza Sukāretto) was a human born in Earthland where she was the daughter of Irene Belserion and a general of a foreign country. She was actually conceived 400 years prior to the Dragon King Festival but was kept from growing in her mothers womb through the use of magic. Erza remained unborn when her mother was a dragon until Irene was returned to her human form at the hands of Zeref. Her mother attempted to become a true human again by enchanting herself onto her unborn child but this failed with Irene considering her daughter Erza to be worthless where she discarded the girl in the back alleys of Rosemary Village. She came to grow up there where she met other children her age such as Simon and Kagura. Whilst still young, the village was attacked by a cult that worshipped Zeref where in the confusion of the attack Erza managed to save Kagura from being captured by hiding her inside a crate. However, she herself came to be captured alongside several other children who were all enslaved as they were brought to a remote island where they were used as slave labour to build the Tower of Heaven. The purpose of the structure was said to help in bringing about the resurrection of the Dark Mage Zeref. Among the imprisoned slaves, she came to encounter Jellal Fernandes, Shô, Simon, Wally Buchanan, and Millianna where she formed a friendship with them. At the time, she only went by the name of Erza with Jellal giving her the last name 'Scarlet' on account of her scarlet hair. Despite harsh conditions, she maintained a close friendship with the other children and a strong bond with an elderly mage named Rob who was from Fairy Tail where he taught her about magic along with his guild. In X776, Shô came up with a plan that would allow the then 11-year-old Erza and all their friends to escape from the tower. However, they would be captured by the guards who looked to punish the mastermind of this attempt with disciplinary action whilst the others would be deprived of food for 3 days. Erza came to see how scared Shô at the time and looked to take the responsibility on herself but Jellal did so before her. Despite that, the guards decided to place the blame on Erza who was taken away to the disciplinary chamber. Whilst there, she was tortured to the brink of death and came to lose her right eye in the process. Jellal looked to save her but was captured as well with Erza being tired of the torment leading to her staging a revolt in order to save him and escape with all the captives. At first, the revolt seemed to be a success the tower's mages arrived to repress the slaves causing many of them to retreat. In this time, Erza came to witness Simon's lower jaw get blasted away by a magic attack whilst Rob sacrificed himself to defend Scarlet from an attack. Succumbing to her rage, Erza's latent magical ability came to activate where she used all the discarded weapons and tools around her against the guards thus allowing them to triumph. Many of the slaves then boarded the ships in order to escape and it was then that Erza was re-united with Jellal but came to find a stark change in his personality. The once kind and compassionate boy was suddenly far more twisted and violent where he used his newly discovered magic to kill any defenseless guards around him. He claimed that he had been possessed by the spirit of Zeref and that the only way to attain true freedom was to complete the Tower of Heaven and use it to revive the dark wizard. Erza would refuse to help him leading to Jellal using a spell to cast her out of the tower where the only reason he let her live was because she helped take out any of the guards that would oppose him. He would tell Erza to never to return and forced her to keep the existence of the Tower of Heaven a secret by threatening to kill everyone she cared about if she disobeyed him.

In the aftermath, she came to leave the island where she found herself washed ashore on Fiore. She then proceeded to make her way to the Fairy Tail guild in order to join their ranks. Out of habit, she began to wear armor to protect herself and acted distant from its other members. Later on, the guild was joined by a boy who was around Erza's age named Gray Fullbuster who one day looked to pick a fight with the elusive Scarlet. However, he instead fond her crying by herself and began to question why she would be so sad. It was after this event that she began to be more open with her guildmates. Around this time, the Fairy Tail guildmaster Makarov Dreyar brought Erza to the healer Porlyusica who gave her an artificial eye to replace the one she had lost years ago. With her eye healed, Erza began to shed tears of joy from her real left eye. Years later, the guild was joined by other young members including Mirajane Strauss and her siblings. Erza had tried to make Mirajane welcome and noted her strength but the elder Strauss refused to speak a word to Scarlet. Over the years, Erza became somewhat more strict and made herself responsible for discipline over her unruly teammates. This led to her often stepping in to break up the fights between Gray Fullbuster and Natsu Dragneel. She herself though came to be involved in constant fights and bickering with Mirajane Strauss. This only ended when Mirajane experienced the seeming death of her sister Lisanna Strauss causing her to mellow out as she grew older. By X780, Erza took part in Fairy Tail' annual S-Class Mage Promotion Trial where she became the youngest member of the guild to pass it being 15 years old at the time.

Fairy Tail

At some point, Erza took a mission to slay a colossal horned monster where she succeeded in her goal and looked to claim the horn as a souvenir. While returning home, Erza stopped at a pub where she overheard a group of Mages discussing a sealed Magic called 'Lullaby', with one of the members, Kageyama, claiming he will be able to break the seal. Scarlet did not give them much thought until she heard Kageyama mention Erigor, the 'Death God' and ace of the Dark Guild Eisenwald. Too late to act against them in time, she decides to enlist Natsu and Gray to help her fight Eisenwald and discover what the Lullaby was as well as what they intend to do with the spell. She returns to the guild with the intention of discussing the matter with Makarov, only to learn that he is away at a meeting with the other guild masters in the country. After ritualistically berating her guildmates for their poor conduct, she tells Natsu and Gray to accompany her on her mission, shocking the entire guild with the idea that she has just formed the strongest team in the history of Fairy Tail. They are joined by Lucy, the guild's newest recruit, who is requested by Mirajane to keep Natsu and Gray from bickering behind Erza's back. Before setting out the next day, Natsu challenges Erza to fight him after they return, which she accepted. Erza discusses her mission with Lucy and Gray of her mission on the train ride to Onibus; Natsu, however, is left in the dark since Erza knocks him unconscious to ease his motion sickness. They are so caught up with their discussion that they accidentally leave Natsu on the train, prompting Erza to temporarily stop the train via its emergency stop signal and chase after him on a borrowed Magic Four-Wheeled Car. Upon retrieving Natsu, he says that he briefly fought with Kageyama, who had escaped, prompting Erza to berate him for not stopping him and paying attention to their discussion. Natsu further explains that the Mage was holding a skull-shaped flute, which Lucy recognizes as the Lullaby, a mass-murder curse that kills anyone who listens to its music.

Desperate to stop Erigor from playing the Lullaby, Erza and the others rush for the nearby town of Oshibana, where they find Eisenwald waiting for them inside the local train station. Before escaping with the Lullaby, Erigor claims to use the Lullaby to kill everyone in the city. Erza sends Natsu and Gray to chase after him while she fights against the members of Eisenwald, easily taking them all out at once. Having used up much of her Magic Power in the fight and on the Magic Four-Wheeled Car, she goes outside to evacuate the citizens gathered around the station. However, Erigor reappears and casts a Wind Wall around the station, trapping Erza inside. She interrogates the defeated Eisenwald members in the station and realizes that Eisenwald's true target is Clover Town, where Makarov and the other guild masters have gathered. Remembering Kageyama's power to dispel Magic, she and Gray find Kageyama after he is defeated by Natsu and demands that he lift the Wind Wall, but he is stabbed in the back by fellow Eisenwald member Karacka to keep him quiet. Fortunately, Lucy acquired the key for the Celestial spirit, Virgo from Happy, allowing the team to burrow beneath the Wind Wall and escape; before doing so, Natsu brings Kageyama, not wanting him to die. Natsu sets out to fight Erigor while Erza and the others chase after him on another Magic Four-Wheeler with Kageyama in tow. By the time they catch up, they find that Natsu has successfully defeated Erigor. However, Kageyama steals the Lullaby and hijacks the vehicle, setting off for Clover Town to kill the guild masters himself. Erza and the others chase after him, but by the time they find him at the masters' meeting hall, they witness Makarov persuading Kageyama to stop his plan. Suddenly, the Lullaby comes to life and unveils a Demon that was sealed inside the flute. Together with Natsu and Gray, Erza battles and destroys the demon, reverting the Lullaby into an ordinary flute, but destroying the entire meeting hall in the process. Shortly after returning to the guild, Erza keeps her promise to fight Natsu, holding their battle in front of the Fairy Tail guildhall. Before the match can be concluded, however, a messenger appears and arrests Erza on behalf of the Magic Council for the damages caused during their battle against Eisenwald. As she is escorted to her trial, she encounters the Council member, Siegrain, who reveals that the Council is using her as a scapegoat to display their authority. Siegrain once again reminds Erza to keep the Tower of Heaven a secret from the Council before leaving to oversee the trial. During the trial, Natsu barges into the courtroom, while dressed as Erza, and tries to pass himself off as her in an attempt to save her, not realizing that the trial is a formality and she wouldn't be punished. As a result, the two are imprisoned together for the night. Although angry that Natsu's rampage had ruined her chance to return home for the day, she warmly admits that his gesture did make her happy.

After returning to Fairy Tail, Erza is challenged by Natsu, but quickly hits him with her sword, knocking him out. The guild members, besides Makarov, then all fall asleep when Mystogan walks in to take a job, waking up soon after he leaves. After Natsu, Lucy and Gray steal a S-Class job and go to Galuna Island, Erza goes after them to stop them and return them to Fairy Tail. She hijacks a pirate ship to go to the island. Erza arrives and saves Lucy from Sherry Blendy and detains Lucy and Happy for their breaking of the guild's rules. The next day, Gray walks into one of the Galuna Islanders tents to find Erza sitting with a tied up Lucy, and Happy. Erza tells Gray to leave the island, since they broke the rule of taking an S-Class job. Gray refuses and tells Erza to do whatever she wants, but it would not stop him. Shocked that someone actually stood up to her, Erza has a slight change of heart and decides to punish them after they finish the mission. Erza slices Toby to stop the Moon Drip from releasing Deliora but did not make it in time. However, it was discovered that Deliora to had already been dead after all this time. Erza interrupts their victory by reminding everyone their mission had not been completed as they had not saved the villagers from the curse. Once back at the village, Erza was the one who figured out the secret of the villagers, and used her Giant Armor to throw a spear to the moon with the help of a very motivated Natsu. With this, they destroy a layer created by the Moon Drip, revealing that all the villagers were originally monsters who were able to turn to humans and not the other way around, and that the Moon Drip layer was simply causing their confusion. She then leads the team off the island, only taking the Celestial Spirit key as a reward, and not the money. She then reminds Natsu and co. that despite finishing the mission, they are all going to get punished. Once everyone returns to Magnolia, they are surprised to find the guild completely trashed.

Erza and the others return from Galuna Island, only to find that the guild has been attacked by Phantom Lord. Later, Erza goes to Lucy's apartment with Team Natsu, and explains the power of Phantom Lord, and that they have a Dragon Slayer as well. Shortly after, Shadow Gear is attacked as well, leading to a Guild War between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord. Fairy Tail assault Phantom Lords guild, but after the sucker punch defeat of Makarov by Aria, Erza demands the guild to retreat. As Erza takes a shower, blaming herself for Makarov's defeat, the walking guild of Phantom Lord attacks Fairy Tail with its Magical Convergent Cannon: Jupiter. Erza stops the first shot with her Adamantine Armor, but loses consciousness. Later, Erza reappears when Natsu is being beaten by Aria. Erza, angered by what he did to the master, is able to quickly defeat him. As she collapses, she implores Natsu to protect Lucy and the guild from Jose and Gajeel, as his power will one day surpass even hers. Gray and Elfman find Erza, but before they can aid her, Jose himself appears before them. He quickly defeats Elfman and Gray. After Erza fights him briefly, Jose remembers how Erza took the Jupiter Cannon head on, and asks her how she was able to do it. Erza replies her love for her friends makes her who she is. Jose laughs, and finds Erza to be a person worth killing. After Natsu beats Gajeel, she reminds Jose that he lost the war because he didn't calculate Natsu's destructiveness into his plans. Erza then berates Jose's reasons for attacking Fairy Tail, and defends Lucy. Jose soon defeats Erza, but is saved by a recovered Makarov who finally finishes Jose with Fairy Law. As she helps to rebuild the guild, Erza follows Gray and Natsu to Lucy's apartment only to find her not home. They all read Lucy's letters, and find a note from her claiming she is going back to her home. After Erza, Natsu, Gray, and Happy arrive at the Heartfilia Konzern, they see Lucy, who just came back from telling her father she will never stay, and to leave Fairy Tail alone. Team Natsu all share a laugh, and afterwards everyone was impressed by how much land Lucy's dad owned.

Tower of Heaven

Erza was sent to help a theatre in trouble where she revealed her love for the theater and the dramatic arts. She signs the others up in a play to help the owner recover from his tragedy, wherein most of his actors and actresses had quit. Erza spends a long time and effort practicing for her role as the prince. During the play, Erza gets stage fright and forgets most of her lines when it comes to performing her part, to which, in some moments, she improvises to fill up sentences in her dialogue. Later though, she gets too deep into her character, as she cuts Lucy's clothes up on stage. The team ends up destroying the theater due to their recklessness, but still get a standing ovation, successfully making Rabian's play entertaining. Team Natsu finishes up a job and run into Loke shortly after. After Lucy thanks him for finding her keys, he quickly runs off though. When Loke is missing from the guild the next day, Erza searches for him with Natsu. Erza is one of the members invited by Loke to go with Team Natsu to an expensive resort. At the beach, Erza has a quick flashback of her slave life at the Tower of Heaven. When she wakes up from the daydream, Lucy invites her to go to the resorts casino. While at the casino, Lucy and Erza are playing cards when one of Erza's childhood friends, Shô, steps in to rotate the dealer position. Suddenly, the casino lights turn off due to Simon's spell, then comes back on with Shô behind Erza, telling her that he can use Magic as well, and demonstrates this by trapping everyone in the casino inside playing cards. Another friend of Erza, Millianna, appears from behind Lucy and ties her up using her Magic ropes. Feeling insulted, Shô tells Erza that they were her friends too once, until she betrayed them. The group tells Erza that they are here to take her back home. Erza, pleading for Wally to stop, gets shot in the back by Wally's tranquilizer shot. Before their departure, Wally gives Millianna a sleeping Happy as a gift. Shô is excited to reveal that Erza will be returning to the Tower of Heaven, where Jellal is waiting. Erza later wakes up in a ship on the way to the tower, bound by Millianna's Nekōsoku Tube. Shô then appears, and yells at her for betraying Jellal. Erza then has another short flashback, revealing her imprisonment with Jellal and the rest of her old friends. As Erza arrives at the Tower, she is thrown in a prison. Shô tells her she will stay there until the "ceremony" starts tomorrow. He then tells her that she will be the sacrifice for "Paradise". Erza tells Shô not to use the R-System to resurrect the Black Mage, Zeref, because of the consequences it will bring to the Magic World. Erza then brings Shô to his knees by kicking him in the face, and then sets out to search for Jellal. Erza fights her way through some guards, asking where Jellal is, and eventually comes across Natsu and co., who has also teamed up with Juvia Lockser. Although she is surprised to see them, she tells them to go back. Natsu refuses, one reason being because Millianna has Happy. Erza apologizes, saying that she will lose this fight no matter what. Erza then tells them about the Tower of Heaven and about her past. After sharing her past, Erza tells Gray, Lucy, and Juvia, that she is destined to fight Jellal. Meanwhile, Jellal's Thought Projection, Siegrain, is gathering votes at the Magic Council to destroy the Tower of Heaven with the Etherion. Back at the Tower, Erza tells the others that Zeref was the strongest Dark Mage ever. He created horrible and destructive monsters. Lucy points out that the Lullaby was one of Zeref's monsters. Erza also thinks that Deliora was one, too. Lucy then asks why Erza is considered a traitor to her old friends. Erza doesn't know why, but suspects Jellal made something up. Shô then appears, hearing what actually happened eight years ago and cannot believe that Jellal was tricking them all this time. Simon then appeared revealing he knew all along that Jellal was lying where they all decided to work together to stop Jellal.

Everybody follows Simon in an attempt to look for Natsu and stop Erza's other friends from attacking. The company learns that they could not escape, because they need to defeat Jellal and the assassins of Death's Head Caucus', Trinity Raven, before Jellal activates the tower that will cause the Council to release the Etherion, which will destroy the tower and them along with it. After hearing what will happen, Shô traps Erza in one of his cards and runs off with her. Erza and Shô run into Ikaruga. Ikaruga claims that she can slice anything, even separate dimensions like Shô's cards. With this, she quickly defeats him. Ikaruga starts attacking Erza, who is still inside Shô's card. After a few more slices, Erza breaks out of it. All of a sudden, Erza's armor is cut into pieces, showing that she did not dodge all of Ikaruga's attacks successfully. She then Requips her Heaven's Wheel Armor. The two girls attack each other head on. Erza Requips several armors, but all of them easily break by Ikaruga's sword. Erza then gets up and Requips a sarashi, with a flame patterned bottom hakama. Erza explains there is nothing special about her armor. All her life she had locked her heart away in her suit of armor, and that had made her weak and afraid. Now that she wears none, she believes she can defeat Ikaruga. The two ladies charge towards each other, their swords clashing for the final time. Although Erza gets slashed, Erza's slash to Ikaruga is able to defeat her. Erza tells Shô to get everybody else out the tower, claiming that she will fight Jellal and end this. Erza makes it to the part of the tower where Jellal is. Jellal claims the game is over, and Erza asks if playing with people's lives are fun. She thinks Jellal is bluffing about the Etherion falling, but he claims that he is not and that either way, she will be a sacrifice for Zeref. The two battle, and Erza eventually pins Jellal to the ground with her sword at his neck. She then tells Jellal he failed at completing the R-System because the tower has no Magic to resurrect. There needs to be 2.7 billion Edeas in order for the tower to activate. Trying to make her give up, he explains how his body was possessed by Zeref and how he is nothing more than a doll doing his bidding. He says he knew he could not finish the R-System, but Zeref would not stop him. He asks Erza to strike him down. She refuses and hugs Jellal as the Etherion hits the tower, completely destroying the outer structure of the tower. Surprised that she is alive after the blast, she looks around and notices there is Lacrima everywhere and that the structure is an absorption crystal. Jellal explains that the Council's Etherion provided the tower with 2.7 billion Edeas to bring Zeref back. Just then, Siegrain shows up and reveals that he and Jellal are the same person, and that he became a Council Member just to cast the Etherion down on the tower. They both reveal that they are the same person and that Siegrain was just a Thought Projection. Now that the two have morphed back together, Jellal's full Magic Power returned. A Bind Snake Jellal cast earlier stops Erza from moving. Before putting her in the Lacrima to be the sacrifice for Zeref, Natsu arrives to pull Erza out. Erza tells Natsu to leave and not fight Jellal, because she is afraid of the consequences that will happen to him. Natsu then punches her, causing her to faint while mentioning he'll win this fight. Enraged by how much Jellal has hurt Erza, Natsu flared up and went to fight Jellal.

Erza then wakes up to Natsu being blasted by Jellal's meteor attacks. Natsu starts destroying the tower so the resurrection cannot occur. Jellal prepares another attack on Natsu, but Erza gets in front, hoping that he won't attack her. He still prepares to launch it, claiming that it does not matter who the sacrifice is, now that there is so much damage. He launches his attack. Opening her eyes, Erza sees that Simon is in front of her and that he used his body as a shield to protect her. He falls to the ground, confesses his love for Erza, and then dies. Erza screams in anguish as Natsu continues his battle with Jellal. By eating the Etherion, Natsu manages to defeat Jellal, but the tower becomes unstable and is ready to blow up, which will kill anyone near it. Back in the tower, Erza carries Natsu on her back. She shortly realizes that she needs to be the sacrifice to control the Magic Power and stop the explosion. She then puts her body half-way in the crystal, only for Natsu to wake up and ask her what she is doing. She tells him she cannot imagine a world without her friends and if she dies saving everybody, then she has no regrets; she then offered her body to the R-System so that she can control it and blanked out completely. Erza wakes up in a dress, wondering where she is. Everything is white around her. The scene turns to her funeral. Erza realizes that she is dead and that nobody is happy. Natsu doesn't believe Erza is dead and refuses to accept it, causing a ruckus as the funeral. As everybody cries, Erza realizes that she made a mistake. She then wakes up, realizing it was a dream. All of her friends run towards her, and Natsu carries her towards them. He lays her in the water, to which Erza is amazed that he was able to not only find, but also take her out the vortex alive. Natsu in tears tells Erza not to sacrifice herself ever again. Erza promises him to do so, and she comes to the realization that she doesn't need to die for her friends, but to live for them, because that is that only way to bring the best future. For the first time since eight years ago, she cries tears of joy, out of both eyes. Wally, Millianna and Shô apologize to Erza, saying they didn't want to hurt her. Erza suggests they come to Fairy Tail. Later, Lucy asks where Shô and the others went. Erza dashes out to go look for them. She then realizes that her former comrades decided to leave Erza’s side, saying that they have caused her too much pain for her. Erza then prepares for them the official Fairy Tail’s Farewell Ceremony. After a few promises, she recites the rules when leaving Fairy Tail, and cries goodbye to them, hoping to see them again someday. After that, Natsu, Lucy, Gray and Erza throw a farewell bash, wishing Shô, Millianna, and Wally well as they depart, finally free and living their own lives.

Battle of Fairy Tail

Erza comes back to the guild to see it rebuilt and in great condition; but her happiness is interrupted when she finds that Gajeel Redfox has joined Fairy Tail. She voices her concerns with Makarov, but as he gives her his confidence, she petitions to have Gajeel watched. Later, when a reporter from Sorcerer Magazine comes to Fairy Tail to interview the members, she wears a modified version of her Heart Kreuz Armor. She surprises everyone when she expresses her desire to be interviewed. During the festival, Erza competes for the title of 'Miss Fairy Tail', Requipping into a beautiful dress that Lucy recognizes as goth lolita style in front of everyone, and states that victory is hers. However, she is turned to stone, along with all the other Miss Fairy Tail contestants by Evergreen. Natsu and Gajeel try to turn her back to normal with Natsu's flame, thinking that it would release her from the stone. She does get revived, but due to her artificial eye halving the effect of Evergreen's Magic. She soon realizes that even Mystogan has arrived to fight Laxus Dreyar, in order to help save the guild. She then goes to town to find Laxus, but encounters Evergreen instead. She threatens Evergreen to release the other girls, but Evergreen is more interested in claiming the title of 'Titania' for herself instead. After fighting her for some time, Erza pins her against a wall. Evergreen revealed to her she would kill the girls if Erza did not strip to degrade herself. Erza responds by Re-equipping into her Heaven's Wheel Armor and threatened to kill Evergreen herself if she did not revive the girls. Ultimately, Evergreen conceded and the girls came to be released. After her fight with Evergreen, both Erza and Natsu find Laxus and Mystogan already fighting in the Cathedral. When Erza witnesses the true face of Mystogan, it turns out to resemble Jellal's completely. Not knowing it wasn't Jellal, her eyes begin to shed tears and she becomes emotionally unstable for a moment. Mystogan claims he is not Jellal, but he knows who he is, and then quickly disappears, leaving Laxus to Erza and Natsu. She recovered from the surprise though and prepares to attack Laxus with her Lightning Empress Armor, but later decides to trust Natsu to stop Laxus, and goes to destroy the Thunder Palace instead to protect everyone in Magnolia. With the help of Warren Rocko, she communicates with all her comrades, and they help her to destroy the Thunder Palace's Lacrimas. In the end, she managed to take out two-hundred Lacrimas, which are the majority of them. After Laxus is defeated, the Harvest Festival continues with the Fantasia Parade. Erza performs with her swords on her float, not knowing Mystogan watched her. When Laxus leaves the guild, Erza and the rest of the guild puts up the sign he and Makarov made up, meaning they will always be watching over him. As the others impeded the fights against the Oración Seis, Erza managed to reach Jellal first, although she is unsure of how to act towards him. To her surprise, she discovers that he has become amnesiac, and is only able to remember her name. As Erza explains who he is and what he did to his comrades, Jellal breaks down in tears upon learning what kind of person he was in his past. Suddenly, Cobra appeared and attempts to take Nirvana, but Jellal revealed that he put a Square of Self-Destruction around Nirvana to destroy it. However, he also put the spell on himself so he can end his life, and free Erza from the pain he has caused to her.

Oración Seis

Erza begins to try and find out about Mystogan; however, she realizes Makarov knows nothing about him. Stumped, Erza wonders about Mystogan's relationship to Jellal, and why they both have the same exact face. Later, Erza and her team begin to go on a mission to hunt a Mage hunter, but she becomes surprised when she hears Lucy went off to Acalypha and took out the Naked Mummy Guild by herself. Afterwards, Makarov revealed that an alliance of guilds has been made in order to take down one of the Dark Guilds part of the Balam Alliance, the Oración Seis, and that Fairy Tail is a part of it. Team Natsu is chosen as Fairy Tail's representatives. They meet up with the Blue Pegasus Guild delegates, The Trimens that are none other than, Hibiki Lates, Eve Tearm, Ren Akatsuki, and to Erza's horror, Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki. They also meet the delegates of Lamia Scale Guild: Jura Neekis, Lyon Vastia and Sherry Blendy, as well as the delegates of Cait Shelter: Wendy Marvell and Carla. As all the delegates get together, Erza follows Natsu and Gray as they run to find the Oración Seis. As the Oración Seis found them, Erza battles Cobra in her Flight Armor. However, she is bitten by his snake and she suffers from the extreme poison. As Lucy gives Erza her belt to strap on her arm, she begs for someone to cut her poisoned arm off. Lyon steps forward to do this, but this is denied by her fellow Fairy Tail members and an argument erupts. However, Carla explains to them that Wendy, who was kidnapped by Brain, can help her, as her Magic allows her to heal the injured. As the others leave to rescue Wendy, Lucy and Hibiki Lates stay behind to take care of her. After Natsu arrives with Wendy, she treats Erza and removes the poison. When the others notice a pillar of black light in the sky, Natsu knows Jellal is there and rushes forward. In the ensuing confusion, Erza slips away, intending to find Jellal as well.

Alvarez Empire

Upon the return to Magnolia, they came to find all of Fairy Tails members gathered to reform the guild. Thus, they began to assemble the guild hall once more and decided to name Erza the new guild master as part of a formality with the Magic Council. This was intended to be a temporary measure until master Makarov was found and brought back to the guild. Around this time, Mest returned and was following orders from Makarov which was to take the new guild master to the Lumen Histore that was a closely guarded secret of Fairy Tail. Once there, he revealed a mission that Makarov had sent him on which was to infiltrate the Magic Council and learn everything about the Alvarez Empire. In the years that followed, Mest secretly reported back to Makarov and by the time of the Tartaros attack it was discovered that the mighty empire was preparing to invade Fiore. To stop this, Makarov decided to journey to the country and conduct negotiations to convince the empire against this course of action. Furthermore, he decided to disband Fairy Tail as he was aware that the Alvarez Empire sought out the Lumen Histore and that by breaking up the guild Makarov felt like he was protecting his children from being targets. After learning of this, Erza and a select number of Fairy Tail members decided to travel secretly into the Alvarez Empire in order to find and recover master Makarov. As the Oración Seis finds them, Erza battles Cobra in her Flight Armor. However, she is bitten by his snake and she suffers from the extreme poison. As Lucy gives Erza her belt to strap on her arm, she begs for someone to cut her poisoned arm off. Lyon steps forward to do this, but this is denied by her fellow Fairy Tail members and an argument erupts. However, Carla explains to them that Wendy, who was kidnapped by Brain, can help her, as her Magic allows her to heal the injured. As the others leave to rescue Wendy, Lucy and Hibiki Lates stay behind to take care of her. After Natsu arrives with Wendy, she treats Erza and removes the poison. When the others notice a pillar of black light in the sky, Natsu knows Jellal is there and rushes forward. In the ensuing confusion, Erza slips away, intending to find Jellal as well.

As the others were fighting against the Oración Seis, Erza managed to reach Jellal first, although she is unsure of how to act towards him. To her surprise, she discovers that he has become amnesiac, and is only able to remember her name. As Erza explains who he is and what he did to his comrades, Jellal breaks down in tears upon learning what kind of person he is. Suddenly, Cobra appears and attempts to take Nirvana, but Jellal reveals that he put a Square of Self-Destruction around Nirvana to destroy it. However, he also put the spell on himself so he can end his life, and free Erza from the pain he has caused to her. She doesn't take this too kindly and runs up to him, grabs him and demands that he cancel the spell and live. Moments later, Brain appears, revealing that he taught Jellal the Square of Self-Destruction, and easily cancels it, before activating the second stage of Nirvana. Erza and Jellal are caught in Nirvana's skywards eruption, as she holds onto Jellal with one hand. She pulls him up, saying that he should live on to see the future as Fairy Tail members do with their connection of 'hope'.

Personality and attributes

In appearance, Erza Scarlet was a young human woman with long, scarlet hair and brown eyes where she had a slender voluptuous figure that Lucy Heartfilia described as being 'amazing'. As a child, she came to lose her right eye but after joining Fairy Tail this came to be replaced by an artificial one that was created by Porlyusica. Originally, she went only by the name of Erza with the last name 'Scarlet' being given to her by Jellal Fernades who commented on her beautiful scarlet hair. Her beauty and skill led to her being known as Titania (妖精女王ティターニアTitānia).

Lucy had said that Erza was cool and beautiful, warm and full of passion.

Meanwhile, Erza had described herself as someone who was always crying, due to her experience of being unable to protect those dear to her.

According to Erza, her companions made her heart strong and she had said that as long as she was fighting for those she loved then she did not care what happened to her body.
