Jellal Fernandes

Jeral is introduced under the alias of Siegrain, a young member of the Magic Council. His design is the same as that of Rave Master's Sieg Hart, Hiro Mashima's previous work, as a form of fan service.[17] With his "underling" Urtear he typically disagrees with the rest of the Council, typically by showing leniency to Fairy Tail. Though he is revealed to have some history with Erza at the start of the series, the nature of their relationship is not made clear until much later. As a child Jeral was forced to help build the Tower of Paradise. While there he was possessed by what he believed was Dark Mage Zeref, supplanting his former kind personality with a more violent one. He helped Erza to escape, took control of the Tower of Paradise's construction, and worked his way into the Magic Council as "Siegrain".

Years later Jeral had Erza kidnapped to be used as a sacrifice to revive Zeref. He convinces the Magic Council to try and destroy the tower in order to fuel the resurrection system. He destroys the Magic Council once their purpose is fulfilled and tries to fulfill his plans. Jeral is stopped by Natsu, who uses the very magic that fuels the system to defeat him. In the final moments before the Tower self-destructs he regains his old senses and help Erza to escape. In the aftermath Urtear reveals that she had been manipulating Jeral the entire time and that his attempt to revive Zeref was futile, as Zeref was never dead in the first place. He uses "Heavenly" magic that allows him to move and fly as quickly as a meteor and to create black holes that suck anything in.
