Nadi's habit

Nadi is very loyal to Extalia, and trustworthy, as he was able to keep the secret about the queen, and about Carla's past. Nadi seems quite friendly to all Exceeds, but can still be serious, like when Happy and Carla tried to escape. Although this may be, Nadi is almost always seen smiling. He showed great love for his country when he helped Carla save Extalia, and was determined to stop the Lacrima island from hitting his home.

Nadi and Nichiya appear

He is first introduced along with Nichiya, Captain of Imperial Guards, after the capture of Natsu, Wendy and Lucy by Erza Knightwalker and her 2nd Militia Division. He praises Carla and Happy for doing great job on their mission and then guided them to the Queen herself. He tells them that they all are Exceed, who are superior to humans and their Queen is in fact a god who has the power to kill every person in both Earth Land and Edolas. He is the one who reveals to Happy and Carla the details of their mission.

Nadi ready to protect Extalia

Later, when Wendy tries to inform the Exceeds about imminent danger Nadi seems to be extremely scared rather than angry and didn't throw stones at Wendy and Carla like the others did. Eventually, he protected Carla from his fellow Exceeds because he was the only one who believed them at the time. After that, he decides to go and help Carla for the sake of his country.

Nadi tells Lily to get ready "for what's gonna happen with us"

He overheard the argument between Mystogan and Pantherlily. After telling the 3 Dragon Slayers, they form a plan involving Natsu pretending to be "The Great Demon Lord Dragneel" and the cause of the vanishing Magic. While Mystogan confronts Natsu, Nadi tells Pantherlily to get ready "for what is going to happen with us."

Nadi and Nichiya apologize

Later Nadi was sent to Earth Land with the other Exceeds and Fairy Tail Guild Mages. Apparently, his hand shaking habit is contagious, since Natsu, Erza, Gray and Lucy found themselves doing this involuntarily after they returned to Earth Land. After the Extalia elders confess the truth about Carla's birth, Nadi confesses he was lying about the mission to bring the Dragon Slayers home, hoping to conceal the truth. After Shagotte hugs her daughter goodbye, Nadi leaves to roam Earth Land with his fellow Exceeds.

Magic and Abilities

Aera (翼 Tsubasa): Nadi uses the Magic ability that all Exceed have, Aera, allowing the user to sprout feathery wings that grant flight while neutralizing the weight of one passenger/object. Nadi was shown to able to carry the passenger with only one arm, while most of Exceeds have to use two.

Trivia

• His head seems rounder in the anime while in the manga it is completely rectangular.
