Toby is one of Lyon Bastia's allies during the conflict on Galuna Island, he also a Mage of the Lamia Scale.
Appearance
Toby is a lean-built, mildly muscular young man of average height with distinctive animal features: he’s got a pair of feline or canine ears sitting on his head, a small dark nose and a lower face which is coloured differently from the rest of his body, bearing resemblance to a canine or leonine muzzle. It’s not clear wheter such features are meant to mirror a lion, a dog or a cat; however, it is known that they are merely decorative, as Toby himself said to Yuka Suzuki.[1] He has got shoulder-length, straight brown hair, large round eyes with black pupils and dark eyebrows. Both of his biceps are adorned by tattoos, somehow reminiscent of runes: the right one bears several symbol placed one under the other, while the other is adorned by a single, more elaborated one.[2] The 7-years timeskip doesn't seem to have changed Toby's appearance much, with the only differences being slightly more prominent muscles and an elongated face.[3]
Toby is always seen bare-chested. He initially wore an extremely loose pair of pants with mildly torn hems, held up by a long belt covered in many rhombs, with the part left out from its plain rectangular buckle hanging down. Such pants bore a large, dark shield-shaped logo emblazoned on the right knee: this depicted a stylized skull, bearing ears similar to Toby’s own ones, with a pair of bones crossed below it, most likely tibias. The whole symbol was highly reminiscent of a Jolly Roger. Toby had a red collar covered in hollow studs circling his neck, and donned a pair of simple dark shoes, each adorned by a light, stylized footprint, similar to that of a cat, or maybe a small dog.[2] After the return of the Fairy Tail members who were stuck on Tenrou Island, Toby is shown wearing a pair of less loose pants, paired with a belt which seems to have a cloth hanging from it on the front, and is dark in the middle part, and light on the edges. Another light belt is seen on Toby's leg, maybe linked to the cloth hanging from the cloth of the other one, and he also appears to be wearing dark, thigh-high boots with light upper edges. Toby seems to retain his old collar, but now added a long chain hanging on his chest, to which a dark sock with lighter parts is attached.
Personality
Sporting such an appearance, Toby is not one whom you would call smart. He is easily deceived, an example was when Natsu tricked him into paralyzing himself with his nails. He is also very shameful; when he does something wrong, he tries to stop it from spreading by telling whoever he told about it to not tell anyone what he did.
History
The only known history about him is that his family was one of the victims of the demon Deliora. It was for this reason that he joined up Lyon in the hope of destroying the demon once and for all.[4]
Synopsis
Galuna Island arc
Toby is first seen accompanied by Yuka. The two are investigating the basement of the Moon Temple when Sherry arrives and tells them that intruders (Team Natsu) have infiltrated the island and defeated her pet rat, Angelica. The trio decided to look for the intruders before Reitei Lyon arrives with the objective to kill them since they saw Deliora.[5] Toby, Yuka and Sherry failed to find the intruders. Reitei Lyon arrives and the three are seen accompanying him. Lyon inquires about Deliora and the Moon Drop ritual, and then orders the three to destroy the village.[6] Just as the three were about to head out, Team Natsu reveals themselves and attacked. However, Lyon tells them to go and that he can take care of himself.[7]
He is seen together with Yuka and Sherry, on board Angelica who was carrying a giant container of acid jelly. Sherry orders Angelica to spill the jelly over the village but Natsu used his Fire Dragon's Brilliant Flame to save the villagers. With their plan failed, the three Mages decided to confront Team Natsu on the ground.[8] As the Mages prepare to fight, the villagers leaves the village carrying the unconscious Gray. Sherry and Angelica went after them, while Lucy was accidentally caught by Angelica's claw. Trying to make Angeica stop, Lucy tickles her causing the three of them to fall to the forest. Happy went after them, leaving Natsu to take on Yuka and Toby.[9]
Natsu tricks Toby
Yuka tells Toby to stand down, wanting to battle Natsu alone only to lose in the end.[10] Toby proceeds to fight against Natsu next, claiming himself much stronger then Yuka. However, he is stupidly tricked into rubbing his head with his paralyzing nails and ends up knocking himself out.[11]
Toby later recover and reports to Lyon of Sherry Blendi and Yuka's defeats before Natsu tilts the ruins they're in to keep the ritual from happening.[12] However Zalty, another of Leon's allies, re-tilts the ruins back into position.[13] As Natsu and later Gray Fullbuster battle Lyon, Toby initiates and complete the ritual despite the fact it take more then one person to do it. Since the ritual is nearly finished though, his power is more then enough.[14] Erza Scarlet tries to stop him but its too late as the moon drip begins to melt the ice.[15] As Erza holds him at sword-point, Toby tells them that the reason for all of this was to avenge their families that had been the victims of Deliora.[16]
