Nadi is an Exceed from kingdom of Extalia, Minister of State under Queen Shagotte command. He is usually adding "Nya" (Japanese, "Meow") while he's talking and intensely waving his paw.

Appearance

Nadi is a black Exceed. His tail is thin a rectangular. He has a large,black rectangular head, with a portion below his nose being white. Nadi has perfectly round eyes and small white eyebrows. Nadi also has pink ears, and two whiskers on each side of his face. The clothes he wears is a black jacket with three golden buttons, with a light colored turtleneck underneath it. Nadi wears a dark yellow pair of pants, and small brown boots. Usually, Nadi is seen always shaking his arm back and forth continuously.

Personality

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

Synopsis

Edolas arc

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 Devision. He praises Charle 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 Charle the details of their mission.

Nadi protects Charle

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

Nadi ready to protect Extalia

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 missing Magic. While Mystogan confronts Natsu, Nadi tells Pantherlily to get ready "for what is going to happen with us."

Later Nadi was sent to Earth Land with the other Exceeds and Fairy Tail 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 Charles 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 Earthland with his fellow Exceed.

Magic and Abilities

Trivia
