Come to think of it... being a relative seems to be turned into a death flag.

Erza's mother - dead. Mavis' son - dead. Zeref's "children" the Demon Gates, Larcade and Deliora - all dead. Lucy's father - dead.

Is there any living relative to a Fairy Tail member who isn't in Fairy Tail themselves?

Well... apart from ex-wives and their children at any rate.
