Personality[]

History[]

At some point, Wraith became a Dragon Slayer with the properties of a Spirit Dragon, which enabled him to take on their power.[3]

Wraith was originally a member of Fairy Tail, being in the same generation as Makarov. However, on his way to work, Wraith was gravely injured by monsters and was rushed to Porlyusica in the guildhall, but by then he could not be saved from his mortal wounds. In his final moments, Makarov pleaded to Wraith to remember their Guild bond as a family before the latter passed on.[4]

After death, his spirit lingered, but he had lost his memories from when he was alive. In his amnesic state, Wraith started to believe he was murdered as he could not pass on. Eventually, he joined Diabolos, a guild exclusively comprised of fifth generation Dragon Slayers that are among those who can see him. He wanted to gain power and enact revenge on his supposed killer.[5]

30 years prior to the year X793, Wraith helped Kirin, who was being haunted by the spirit of the Lightning Dragon King Elexion, by sealing the Dragon's soul within a box, though suggesting to move it into something bigger, where eventually it was put in the coffin which Kirin carries with him. He explained that the recent nightmares were from Elexion, and that the souls of dragons appear before dragon eaters every now and then. He then gives the box to Kirin, stating that the spirit has lingering attachment to the world and cannot be erased, telling the young boy that he has no choice but to hear his voice and live with him.[6]

Synopsis[]

Wood Dragon God arc[]

Wraith accompanies Skullion and the others to Drasil, tasked to slay the slumbering Wood Dragon God, Aldoron. In Right Hand Town, he spots a carriage carrying a person and stops it, freeing Natsu, though he tells him that he has not been save. Wraith asks if he can hear and see him, saying that he may become his next meal. He introduces himself and thanks Natsu for finding him.[7]

Wraith asks if he would understand if he mentioned Diabolos, but brushes it off as he will be eaten by him, before expressing how grateful he is that he found him. When Natsu remembers Skullion and the others, Wraith sends down a rain of human souls. He stands still as Natsu tries to punch him multiple times, but goes through him instead. Wraith throws a few hits as Natsu still fails to land a punch. He remains silent when Happy arrives and Natsu tries to warn him of Wraith, but is unable to see him. He explains to Natsu that few people can see and hear him, expressing how grateful he is that he found him, stating that he is a ghost.[8]

He confirms Natsu's question that he is already dead, staying still as Natsu puts Happy right in front of him. He explains that he is visible to Dragon Slayers, thus why he joined Diabolos. He explains that he is not hungry but desires to eat dragons to gain power. Natsu asks him to rest in peace, but Wraith states that it is not possible, not until he finds the man who killed him. Until that day, he wants to get stronger, raising an arm he summons Dragon Spirit that consumes Natsu. He once again explains that the white flames are souls, but notes how pointless it is to explain to Happy. The flames burst into an explosion, making Natsu fall. Wraith extracts his soul, stating that it and his power will be his.[9] Just as he is about to eat Natsu's soul,[10] it bites his fingers and punches him. Wraith is surprised and confused on what is happening. He speculates that Natsu became a Thought Projection, who forms a body and lands another punch.[11]

Wraith is hit with a barrage of punches, surprised that Natsu was able to do this. He then possesses Happy, expaining his possession powers. Natsu tells him that he cannot win with Happy's body, but he asks if he can attack a friend. To his surprise, Natsu punches him, forcing him out of the cat. Wraith complains how there are owners who would abuse their pets like this, but Natsu corrects him that Happy is a friend and that he will not forgive those who hurt him. He points out that Natsu was the one who punched him, calling him an irrational person. Natsu kicks him in the face, forcing him to flee in search of a stronger human. He flies through the town, finding someone with a high synchro rate so that his and host's power will be multiplied. He reminds himself of the three conditions for increasing the synchro rate; having rqual or greater magic power than his, has seen the abyss of death, and finally be a relative. He notes that he cannot fufill the last condition as he has no family, so he must find someone who matches the first two. He soon finds one and possess Makarov's body. Wraith encounters Natsu again, remarking the incredible synchro rate this body has and stands from the wheel chair ready to fight.[12]

Wraith tells Natsu to not think of him as an acquaintance, as his magic combined with the old man makes an unrivaled power. He throws a giant armed punch at Natsu, making him crash into a wall. A confused Natsu asks why he was hit, which Wraith explains that they are not on the same level, as he is a ghost and him a Thought Projection. His point of view decides whether or not his attacks hit physical objects. This said, he asks who the old man is because he has never experienced a synchro rate like this. After being told that he is a Guild Master, he understands how he matches the first two conditions, but wonders if he also fufills the last condition.[13]

Magic and Abilities[]

Spirit Dragon Slayer Magic (霊の滅竜魔法 Rei no Metsuryū Mahō): Wraith is able to use this Magic that allows him to gain the abilities and characteristics of a Spirit Dragon, with this Magic Wraith gains a spirit-like ability to not to be heard or seen by anyone other than a Dragon or a Dragon Slayer.[14] He can also use the souls of the dead as a means of attack,[15] become intangible like a spirit, giving him an immunity to any corporeal attacks,[16] be able to fly off the ground and traverse areas,[17] phase through obstacles, and still able to inflict physical damage to his target whenever he chooses.
