Bloodman

Bradman (ブラッドマン Buraddoman) was an Etherious and a member of Emperor Spriggan's elite personal guard: the Spriggan 12. Known as the very "Grim Reaper" (死神 Shinigami) in the underworld, he wields all of the Curses of the Demons of Tartaros, able to exploit them to his jurisdiction.

Appearance
Bradman is a very tall, extremely muscular demon with an overall macabre appearance; his chest is covered in a dark, demonic breastplate that wraps itself around his lower abdomen. Attached to his breastplate are extremely large, irregularly-shaped metallic pauldrons that connect and fade out into his extremely long cloak, which he uses to keep hooded his head, upon which he wears what appears to be an mask to conceal his face. On his arms, Bradman wears a fishnet, mesh-like material, which is partially concealed by his overly-large pauldrons and gloves; the gloves themselves are frayed, and bear a zigzag patter below the fray, however, attached to the zigzag pattern are also irregularly-flowing designs that the resemble bone structure of the hand, as they travel down from the forearm of the glove and branch off at the knuckles and travel down to each fingertip. The aforementioned zigzag pattern also appears on the material that is exposed on the parts of his torso that Bradman's breastplate does not cover, and around his waist he wears a belt. His lower body is concealed from view by a dark robe that reaches up to his feet. Just below the belt, it sports a pattern of circles that travels around his person. Overall, as described by members of Sabertooth that he killed, Bradman very much resembles the.

Personality
Bradman, living up to his appearance, is a sinister, malevolent and cruel person, who shows no signs of regret at slaughtering people, showing no mercy against his foes and killing anyone who stands in his way, even without saying a word while doing so.

When he is attacked by an angry Gajeel, he doesn't show any worry about it, instead, he lets out a sinister laugh while commenting on Gajeel's impending death for having touched him, but shows excitement when he finds out that Gajeel's lungs are made of iron, so he can fight to his heart content. Nonetheless, Bradman is quite arrogant, claiming that anyone who stands against him shall meet their death, even vowing to take his opponents lives for standing in front of him.

Alvarez Empire arc
In light of the upcoming war between Ishgar and the Alvarez Empire, and their subsequent fight to retrieve Fairy Heart, Bradman receives an immediate summons to attend a meeting between Zeref, Emperor Spriggan, and the entirety of the Spriggan 12, but because of his immediate location within the extremely vast expanse of Alakitasia, he finds himself unable to attend.

Bradman, however, does later mobilize with the other eleven members of the Spriggan 12 to attack Ishgar and seize Fairy Heart from Fairy Tail; he aligns himself with a fleet designed to attack Ishgar from the north, and does so alongside Irene Belserion and Larcade of the elite guard. When they ultimately arrive at their landing destination, Bradman descends and deals with the combined assault from Sabertooth and Blue Pegasus by indiscriminately killing all enemies he finds. After being called to arm himself along with Larcade by Irene, he descends onto the battlefield, slaughtering more Mages, some who run in fear of not suffering humiliation again. Bradman is then suddenly attacked by a livid Gajeel Redfox who informs the Shield of Spriggan that for reawakening his most terrible memory he will make him feel his wrath. Laughing, Bradman tells the Iron Dragon Slayer he has just touched death itself.

Bradman then fights with Gajeel and while shrugging off some of Gajeel's attack he reminds him he has touched death itself before grabbing Gajeel's neck however, Gajeel states they are both out of luck head-butting Bradman away. As they continue their fight, Bradman reveals his body is made of Magical Barrier Particles stating all who breathe them in will instantly die. Gajeel states that won't affect him as his lungs are made of iron which Bradman states is fortunate as he will be able to fight to his heart's content. Bradman soon summons numerous skull corpses stating Gajeel may be able to endure, he asks about the surrounding Mages who begin to suffer under Bradman's magic as does Gajeel until he is saved by Levy who intends to join in the battle.

Bradman then makes a point that with the first seal, his opponent's magic is stolen by means the Magical Barrier Particles, which are emitted from his body. For the second seal the door to the 'underworld is thereby opened to all in the battlefield amongst an endless field of corpses. Bradman then becomes a gas-like entity, whereby his body is made of Magical Barrier Particles. Then, as for the third seal, he, as the reaper, brings hell's judgement among his opponent's life and states that above the third seal, there is no hope of return to the living realm, which his opponents, Gajeel and Levy, value so much. As Gajeel mocks him and states that Bradman isn't special at all, that the other Shields of Spriggan are, by far, more impressive. Bradman then says that he doesn't use Magic power, but Curse power. Bradman then states that he possesses the curses of the Nine Demon Gates. He then attacks Gajeel and Levy by swinging his right arm forth and his left arm back, creating an explosion, which causes Gajeel to fall back, into a pile of skull corpses. He then attacks the mages again, by sending slashes from his hands in a cross formation. Unfortunately, Gajeel defends himself by coating his body with iron. Bradman then raises his hands and summons a vast amount of black water which floods the battle field.

After Bradman summons the flood, Levy uses her magic to create a hole in which the black water falls. Gajeel attacks with his roar, but Bradman counterattacks with his own roar. Bradman then uses his Magical Barrier Particles and grabs Gajeel and Levy by their legs and attacks them with his skull corpses which lead them to his 'life-stealing whirlpool'. But to his surprise, they escape the whirlpool. As Gajeel tries to attack with his club, it goes through Bradman, who then sends a thorn piercing through Gajeel's right abdomen. Bradman is then later attacked by his injured opponent, who has absorbed his Magical Barrier Particles and unleashed his full potential, which matches his curse power. Bradman then grabs Gajeel and says he will not die without a price that Gajeel will accompany him for all eternity, meaning he would commit double suicide.
