Nichiya

Nichiya is the Edolas version of Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki. He is also the captain of Extalia's Imperial Guard.

Appearance
Nichiya seems to have the same facial features as Ichiya, minus the cat ears, nose, mouth, and the whiskers. He also has a distinctively large head, with orange hair arranged in a wavy style with a fringe hanging on his forehead. He is seen wearing a red hat with a cat symbol in it. Being the captain of the Extalia army, he wears royal blue army coat with one brown belt. He also wears a two-paneled apron, with the Extalia army's logo imprinted on it, dark-green pants and brown shoes. He usually carries a sword encased in a scabbard. Like Ichiya, Nichiya is mostly seen standing with his index and middle fingers pointed.

Personality
Nichiya is very loyal to Extalia and the queen, referring her as a god. He also hates human and their smell and detests the fallen ones. Like Ichiya, he is also a fan of perfumes and its odors. He is very well-respected in the army.

Edolas arc
Nichiya is first introduced as an Exceed, being the captain of the army in Extalia. He first wakes up Carla and Happy, congratulating and telling them about their plan that sent 100 Exceed eggs down to Earthland to capture the Dragon Slayers. After Carla and Happy run off and escape, disbelieving the news, Nichiya raises the alarm and declare the two as "fallen". He is then seen leading an army to capture Carla and Happy after they've escaped into the air, but they are suddenly hindered by Faust activating code ETD, which traps Nichiya and his soldiers. Nichiya then screams that the Queen will not let this matter go, before being converted with his soldiers into a giant cat-shaped lacrima.

Later, Nichiya and his guards were turned back to Exceeds and, with the other Exceeds and Fairy Tail Mages, were sent to the Earth Land. Later, after hearing the confession of the Elder Exceeds and the Queen, he confesses to upholding his queen's status by willingly pretending that Happy and Carla were sent to capture the Dragon Slayers, and apologizes. He then leaves along with his race (except Happy, Carla and Pantherlily) to search for the missing Exceeds.
