Reedus Jonah

For Reedus's Edolas counterpart, see Reedus (Edolas).

Reedus Jonah is one of the Mages of the Fairy Tail Guild.

Appearance
Reedus is a tall man with curly, light orange hair, whose most distinctive feature was his extremely large and round torso, which made his limbs look much smaller than they actually look in comparison, a result of Makarov’s Titan Magic, with Reedus having asked him that to better use his Pict Magic. He has a rectangtular-shaped face which sported prominent, linear cheekbones. Seven years after the disappearance of Tenrou Island, Makarov’s Titan spell worn off, with Reedus returning to his original, slim appearance as a result. His cheekbones appear to have disappeared from sight, and his hair is also seemingly cut slightly shorter.

Reedus’ first outfit consisted of a white shirt fitting his chest’s size, with sleeves rolled up to his elbows, dark pants, dark, pointed shoes adorned by light crescent moon-like motifs on the inner sides, and a distinctive dark hat, with a large brim, a curved point hanging down on Reedus’ left and a light orange band around it, highly reminiscent of those worn by fictional sorcerers. Reedus’ shirt was once shown reading “I’ll defeat Erza and Laxus” in large letters, something which was written by Natsu Dragneel, but which couldn’t be used for his Pict Magic. After the timeskip, Reedus switched to an attire more closely resembling that of a fictional French artist, consisting of a dark vest over a light shirt with rolled-up sleeves, dark pants and striped shoes with plain tips. Around his neck is a large, and light-coloured ribbon, he wears a dark top hat with a light band around it and a pair of glasses-like googles on his eyes.

Personality
Reedus doesn't seem to be very brave seen when he stated he was "afraid" of Laxus Dreyar when Makarov noticed him hiding in the building, however he will do important jobs if asked, like protecting Lucy in the Phantom Lord arc and finding help in the Fighting Festival arc. He loves to draw happy scenes like when Happy was first born. Reedus also likes to portray other people, like drawing Mirajane and Freed just for having good looks. Reedus has a habit of using French words, like "Oui" (French for "yes") and "Pardon" (French for "sorry").

History
Reedus is one of the veteran Mages, having joined when Natsu Dragneel was still a child. He was not as large then as he had not yet asked Makarov to alter his size. He was seen drawing Happy when he was first born. Sometime after this, Reedus requested that Makarov use his Titan Magic on him. This is what made his chest so large. It is assumed he asked this to increase the potential for his Pict Magic.

Macao arc
After Makarov appears in the guild, he tells members of Fairy Tail all the violations they caused. Reedus looks down twiddling his thumbs.

Lullaby arc
Mirajane borrows Reedus's Light Pen when she explains the organization of the Magic world. After Mira holds it for a while after she is done using it Reedus, in the background, thinks to himself that he wants his pen back from Mirajane.

Galuna Island arc
After Mirjane tells Makarov an S-Class job was stole from the secound floor, Makarov asks which job was missing. Mirajane tells him the Galuna Island job. Makarov then announces its other name, "The Island of Demons". Reedus, along with other guild members look shocked after hearing the name, knowing it was a dangerous place.

Phantom Lord arc
Reedus is present when Gray, Lucy, Natsu,Happy come back to the guild from Galuna Island. When Fairy Tail goes to the Phantom Lord Guild, Reedus participates in the battle. Reedus Jonah uses Pict Magic: Nature, Run Wild! on Phantom Lord members. Reedus retreats with the guild after Makarov is defeated.

When Phantom Lord comes to Fairy Tail with the Super Mage Giant Phantom MK II, Reedus, with other guild members are shocked at the sight of it. When Jose Porla tells Fairy Tail to hand over Lucy, Erza shouts she would rather die than do that. Reedus, with other members shout in agreement. After Mirajane puts Lucy to sleep to hide her, she asks Reedus to take her to their hideout and watch over her. Reedus then uses Carriage and Boar, and puts Lucy in the carriage.

After Gajeel, Sue and Bozo find Lucy, Reedus comes to her defense. As Reedus prepares Roar of Silver he tells Lucy to run away. Lucy says she will. Sue teases them saying they are going to make her cry. After Reedus launches his Roar of Silver, Sue uses Form Mirror which repels all of the Vulcan's attacks back at them. As Lucy tries to run away, Gajeel kicks her in the face. Reedus unable to help, gets hit by Bozo's Howling, defeating him. After Loke found him battered, he was ashamed over not being able to protect Lucy. After Phantom Lord is defeated, and the Fairy Tail Guild is destroyed, Lucy feels bad. Reedus, along with Levy, Jet, and Droy tell her not to feel bad. Reedus apologizes for being of no use. Lucy just shakes her head and starts to cry.

Fighting Festival arc
When Lucy comes out in a bunny costume for the reporter, Reedus stares at her confused. Reedus is impressed at Erza's outfit during the Harvest Festival's Beauty Contest. After the Battle of Fairy Tail begins and everyone rushes out of the building the beauty contest was taking place, Makarov spots Reedus who stayed behind. Reedus apologizes saying he is scared of Laxus. Makarov disregards that and asks Reedus to try to go to Porlyusica's House because she might have a cure for the stone curse Evergreen used on Fairy Tail Members. He says okay, but is then interrupted by Natsu who wakes up from his battle with Laxus. He tries to go through the barrier, but it says only people under 80 can go through. Reedus, Makarov, and Happy gape in confusion. As Reedus runs towards Porlyusica's house he is stopped by Freed's runes. Freed then appears himself, but then so does a Maid Lucy, which Reedus made before hand. As Maid Lucy distracts Freed, Reedus tries to climb over a brick wall. Freed catches him and slashes him, causing him to fall to the ground. Freed compliments Reedus on his Magic, and admits he would have been fooled if he had no information of it. Reedus begs Freed to stop hurting people, claiming he wasn't that type of man. Reedus then faints.

After the battle, Evergreen opened up to the guild by asking Reedus to draw a portrait of her, however she claimed she would never pose nude, no matter how much he begged her. However, the thought never crossed his mind.

Oración Seis arc

Before Fairy Tail attacks the Dragonoid, Gray reappears from being question by Makarov. The guild members listen to Gray's explanation of why he got Natsu captured. After they realize it was so Natsu could remember a promise, they all accept Gray back.

After Gajeel rescues Natsu from the Dragonoid, Lucy summons Sagittarius, and then asks all the guild members to use any fire based attacks on Sagittarius, so he could send an arrow to Natsu so his Magical power would be restored.

X791 arc
Seven years after the destruction of Tenrou Island, the guild is reduced into a small tavern with only a few members remaining, one of which is Reedus, whose body has gotten slimmer. When Jet compares the now overweight Droy to Reedus, Reedus politely tells him that his body was originally that slim. when the annoyed Droy shouts out that Levy is not coming back, everyone in the guild fell silent just as a group of men from the rival guild, Twilight Ogre, enters the guild and begins to demand for payment for the debt that the fairies owe them, but the new master, Macao, informs the group that they were unable to collect enough money for the payment. The group then leaves after trashing the guild and promises to return next month for the rent.

After the group left, everyone in the guild notices Reedus' sketch book, littered on the floor. The sketch book contains Reedus' sketch of the guild members back when the guild was strong and complete. Seeing the sketches, everyone in the guild begin to grieve and reminisce what has happened since the disappearance of their comrades. Suddenly, the guild hears a sound and everyone heads outside only to see Blue Pegasus's Christina. The Trimens then gets off the Magic Bomber and informs the guild that they have detected something in the Eternano waters and that Tenrou Island still exists.

After the return of the missing Fairy Tail members from seven years ago, Reedus celebrates with the rest of the guild. He shows his sketches of what he thought Wendy, Happy, Carla, and Pantherlily would look like if they had aged during the time they were gone, though Wendy is disappointed Reedus drew her "underdeveloped".
