All right so here is my first attempt at a character stats and Q&A.

Here is the order in which I've prepared this:

Team Natsu's Stats And Current Abilities Explained

Questions Gathered From PM And Reviews Answered

Now you are all probably thinking only those two points well A I've never done something like this before so I have no idea what to put other than that and B the first point actually is over half the word count for the this because there was so much I had to talk about.

Oh and by the way if there are spelling errors or something like that I probably won't edit them simply because this is a Q&A not the story itself so I'll be giving it a quick re read to pick up some but beyond that I'd be ok with errors.

Now this will be uploaded alongside a few chapters so don't think this is all your getting if you aren't interested then feel free to skip on ahead to the Return Of The Tenrou Team chapter.

Now with all that out of the way let's begin with power scaling and character ability explanations with the character I assume quite a few of you would be curious about Natsu.

Character Name: Natsu Dragneel

Age Pre Timeskip: 21

Current Magical Abilities:

Fire Dragon Slaying Magic

Fire Dragon King Mode

Fire Dragon's Healing Flames

Dragon Slayers Secret Techniques

Fire Dragon Force

Fire Dragon Slayers Secret Arts

Gravity Dragon Slaying Magic

Gravity Dragon King Mode

Gravity Dragon Force

Gravity Dragon Slayers Secret Arts

Lightning Dragon Slayer Infused Magic

Dragon Slayer Secret Arts Revised

Offensive Crash Magic Level Five

Defensive Crash Magic Level Three

Dragon's Fury

Requip Spatial Magic

Transformation Magic

Low Level Telepathy Magic

The first thing to make clear is how I've categorized Natsu's Dragon Force, King Mode and Secret Arts. Natsu can only use one kind of Dragon Force at any given time due to the way it enhances the element.

In his Fire Dragon Force Natsu adopts red scales, claws and wings if he so chooses and his Fire related magical abilities are pushed to their absolute limit.

Gravity Dragon Force is something Natsu can do however he has not as of yet. During his training with Lykyria he was able to unlock the form more easily than he did with the Fire Dragon Force.

The Gravity Dragon Force looks relatively the same as the Fire Dragon Force except the scales will be a dark purple same as Lykyria herself, the scales on Natsu's body will also be much smoother than Fire Dragon Force which allows certain attacks to simply slide of due to the unstable gravity held within each individual scale.

Using the Gravity Dragon Force will heighten his Gravity Slayer Magic to its limits however Natsu does not use this form simply because it isn't practical in a lot of his fights.

Both the Gravity Dragon King Mode and Dragon Force grant Natsu near unprecedented control over the forces of Gravity to the point where he could have made a black hole three to four times larger than the one Bluenote makes during the Tenrou Arc but like I said earlier it's not practical in an everyday combat scenario.

Natsu uses his Gravity Dragon Slaying Magic as a sort of suppressive or supportive type role for example if he is being pinned down by an enemy he can shift the Gravity in any direction and make it up to 500 times what it was. In his Gravity Dragon King Mode he can increase the Gravity by double that and his Dragon Force double that again.

Now before you think that's too OP hear me out, Lykyria who is Queen of the Gravity Dragons can manipulate Gravity to 50 000 times the standard so Natsu by comparison is like an ant. To put that in perspective a full power Gravity Dragon Queen's Roar from Lykyria could hurt Achnologia but not kill him.

Now as I said with the two types of Dragon Force the two types of King Modes cannot be used in tandem either so Natsu chooses to use the one that he's most familiar with however if he is up against an opponent that can potentially manipulate Gravity or is able to negate his Fire he will use it without hesitation.

Now the next thing I want to bring up is a form I gave Natsu all the way back in Chapter 3 which was called Dragon Slayer's Secret Technique: Assimilation Of The Fire Dragon King and Acclimatization Of The Fire Dragon King.

Now I just know that there are people out there who read those chapters and were like hey that's pretty cool and then bam never seen or heard from again well I can explain that.

The Dragon Slayer Secret Techniques were an idea I thought of when I wanted Natsu to fight strong opponents but not use the Dragon Force. Now here's where I explain exactly how those techniques work.

Assimilation Of The Fire Dragon King is designed to enhance the potency of Natsu's fire and grant him the flight abilities that the Dragon Force would give him. In this form Natsu becomes fire itself which enhances it to its absolute limit exactly like the Dragon Force.

However like a form that only grants you half the perks it has serious drawbacks, because Natsu is pure fire he could easily be killed by a novice water or wind mage in this form. If the fight also became drawn out and Natsu had no time to revert he could also simply burn out and die, another double edged sword is his intangibility to physical attacks where if he reverts while an object is through him it could kill him.

Acclimatization Of The Fire Dragon is the defensive abilities of the Dragon Force. Natsu's fire can adapt to anything and he will be able to combat an enemy mage no matter the type disadvantage as it essentially nullifies the advantage.

The drawbacks of this form essentially render it completely useless where Natsu is now because maintaining the Acclimatization Of The Fire Dragon prevents him from using any other techniques like singular Crash Magic or Gravity Dragon Slayer magic.

Basically these two forms when combined become the Fire Dragon Force so Natsu really has no use for them at this stage especially since a lot of his enemies would easily exploit the weakness.

Now for the Secret Arts, you all know the regular Fire Dragon Slayer one from the manga and anime Dragon Slayers Secret Art: Crimson Lotus etc… well there are ones that he can only use in certain King or Dragon Force forms. I'll give this one out for free since he hasn't used it yet but Natsu has one for his Gravity forms that goes like this.

Gravity Dragon Slayers Secret Art: Violet Cosmos Gravitational Revisal!

To give some context into what that attack does is Natsu must be in his King or Dragon Force to access the necessary level of power and he essentially creates a large sphere shaped dome kind of like Trafalgar Law's from One Piece and just throws the Gravity in there into overdrive.

Basically you'd have bits of opposing Gravity colliding into each other creating miniature Black Holes potentially, things would be flying everywhere and the intended target would be disoriented from the constant changes within the dome. This would last for three minutes then Gravity would return to normal but it goes to show you why I'm making these Secret Arts exclusive to the King and Dragon Force forms.

Now that you might have an idea of where I'm going with this let me talk about Secret Arts Revised basically Natsu's Lightning Mode can be infused into either his Fire or Gravity magics so obviously he will be able to access upgraded versions of all his current Arts with a lightning twist so I won't say any more on it since its obviously something cool for down the track.

Now to explain the Crash Magic this one I've really wanted to explain for awhile since I feel that little guide I left wasn't really that helpful.

It still goes as follows but this is for OFFENSIVE Crash Magic:

Crashing – 10% or less of Natsu's Crash Magic infused into an attack

Quaking – 11-30% Crash Magic infused into an attack

Seismic – 31-50% Crash Magic infused into an attack

Reverberating – 51-70% Crash Magic infused into an attack

Resounding – 71-90% Crash Magic infused into an attack

Destabilizing – 91-100% of Natsu's Crash Magic infused into an attack

Now you probably are wondering Azza you said Natsu can only access Level 5 of his offensive Crash Magic and you would be correct I did say that but there are circumstances where he can access Level 6 and here are a few examples.

When Natsu and Eliza performed the Unison Pact he had full mastery over all his abilities due to Eliza's influence and was able to reach 100% of his Crash Magic power.

Anytime Natsu accesses the Dragon Force he gains enough control over his Crash Magic that he is able to use up to 100% however he doesn't do it as often simply because it is quite tiring.

Basically the key to Natsu accessing 100% of his Crash Magic is through focus, he is able to reach 100% outside the Dragon Force but he would have to be extremely focused so if he ever uses the attack while not in the Dragon Force unless its stated later he has full mastery you know he's pulling out all the stops.

Now for the one that I've barely spoken about period defensive Crash Magic, it works similar to offensive Crash Magic but instead of putting the power into an attack Natsu is placing the power into a barrier.

Now defensive Crash Magic requires a large amount of focus to maintain, Natsu is at Seismic level which means that his barrier is currently using between 31-50% of his total Crash Magic however he does not always have the barrier active which is why often he'll just get hit and there will be no consequence to the attacker.

Basically due to the Dragon Force Natsu feels like training in defensive Crash Magic isn't a top priority simply because he can shrug off a regular mages attack with ease regardless.

Also another thing to note is that if Natsu were to have his Crash Barrier up at let's say 20% and he can only access Level 5 offensive Crash Magic it means that he can only use up to Level 4 offensive Crash Magic because he cannot exceed that Level 5 limit.

Now another ability Natsu has that has been tossed around every now and again was Natsu's Healing Flames, basically discount Wendy healing but still effective.

His Healing Flames kind of derive from old stories that mention mythical healing fire but to be honest now that Wendy's around unless Natsu is by himself he won't really need to use it.

Now Natsu's requip magic is fairly simple he really just keeps whatever he needs on him like spare money, clothes, important items and his swords.

Yes Natsu does actually have swords and he can use them just as effectively but he'd outright lose to Erza or Elise if he went up against either of them since they were both trained much more in them than he was.

He doesn't have any armors but he does have like I said earlier his regular clothes and ones such as the Scarlione Court armor which isn't one you use in combat but it's just for show.

Transformation Magic to me is something any competent mage can learn and just like Erza and Mira Natsu learnt how to use it properly while in Scarlione the same with low level telepathy though the telepathy is only really used when someone wants to talk to him its easier for him to communicate than someone who can't use it.

And so now I think it's time to give a bit of info about Natsu stat wise so here are his stats:

Exceptional Senses

Natsu's already enhanced senses have been refined to the point that he could track someone or something undetected without the need for being directly on the trail of the person. An example during the Tower of Heaven Arc when Erza was kidnapped Natsu was fighting with members of Tartaros and didn't have a clear idea where they went was still able to track them across the ocean to the Tower.

Immense Strength

Despite his age Natsu possesses an extraordinary amount of strength for someone his size without the use of magic, putting full force behind his punches Natsu can easily send people flying for miles such as Mard Geer in his Etherious form or even potentially destroy entire buildings with little assistance from his magic.

Exceptional Reflexes

Natsu has clearly demonstrated that his reflexes are on par with some of the best Fiore have to offer including people such as The Wizard Saints Jellal and Jose Porla, Leaders of the Bharam Alliance Hades/Precht, Brain/Zero and Mard Geer in his Etherious form and even managing to out speed and manoeuvre some of them.

Exceptional Speed

Natsu is able to move at speeds only top tier mages can see so much so that not even most S Class mages can keep up. Natsu was able to traverse Tenrou several times over within minutes as he ran across the island and has easily outclassed most mages he's come across that aren't higher than S Class.

Immense Durability

Natsu'd durability even without the Dragon Force is nothing short of extroadinary, being able to take hits from some of the strongest opponents like the leader of the Bharam Alliance and Wizard Saints while receiving minimal damage in some cases.

Natsu is also able to withstand extroadiniary amounts of enemy magic and can easily shrug off a regular mages attacks like he did when Gray tried to attack him in Chapter 1.

Immense Magical Power

Natsu's Magic Power easily puts him at the levels of mages such as Gildarts, Hades, Bluenote as well as earning himself a place among the Ten Wizard Saints.

Being able to use devastating amounts of destructive magic Natsu could easily destroy a town or mountain in one full power breath attack, during the attack by Phantom Lord Natsu was able to counter the Jupiter Cannon with a single breath attack. The Jupiter Cannon was said to be able to wipe out Magnolia in a single shot and took the combined power of several Phantom Mages to power.

Natsu's raw magical power as he demonstrated to Elise and Ur is easily able to cause disturbances in the area around him, disrupting the flow of Gravity around him, causing flame pillars to erupt from the earth, crack the space around him and lift up all the ground and cause it to orbit around him as well as dry up a section of the ocean he was standing in which means he was easily generating enough heat to fry someone should they come within metres of him.

Being able to combine magic together is a skill that takes a considerable amount of magic power however Natsu is able to not only combine his magic but adapt and create new spells if necessary on the fly.

Master Hand To Hand Combatant

Natsu is able to trade blows with the top fighters in Fiore from Guild Masters to Wizard Saints, Natsu is even able to go toe to toe with Gildarts who is considered Fairy Tail's strongest mage.

Natsu is able to incorporate his magic into his wildly unpredictable fighting style which can create some devastating results. Due to this unpredictable fighting style Natsu is usually able to feint his opponents quite frequently usually leading to a victory.

Proficient Swordsman

During his time in the Scarlione Empire's military Natsu was trained in the way of the sword, though he is indeed proficient and owns many blades unless he specifically has to fight with a sword Natsu will opt for hand to hand combat citing his lack of expertise in the area.

Now I wanted to leave this as the last thing to talk about for Natsu and that's what he recently did on Tenrou where he essentially snapped and was shrugging off Hades Bullet Magic like he was firing a slingshot. The official name I'm giving it is Dragons Fury.

Basically this is a state either a Dragon or Dragon Slayer can reach if they are either under extraordinary stress or are angered to the point that it activates.

Natsu after witnessing the horrors that Tartaros had created was still struggling to come to terms with what he had seen and was still suffering from the effects during the Tenrou Arc. Now an important thing to remember is Natsu is beginning to despise Dark Guilds to the point that he's liable to just kill on sight so when Grimoire Heart turned up he was already furious.

Combined with that Natsu had seen Hades attempt to outright murder Makarov right in front of him as well as see several other members of Fairy Tail injured. However Wendy who is basically seen by Natsu as a sort of daughter was brought to what he assumed was the brink of death Natsu's rage finally won over and he was forced into the Dragons Fury.

The Dragons Fury is not a form that will ever be unlocked by any of the Dragon Slayers as it is a purely emotional state that grants them a massive increase in power for a short time kind of like how Saiyans do in Dragon Ball.

An important thing to note is that once in this state the Dragon or Slayer essentially becomes partially feral and will not hesitate to attack anyone who isn't on their side, Laxus who had already previously been defeated by Hades had shown Natsu before he'd even let him run to his side that he was willing to help Natsu kill Hades and as a result showed he wasn't a threat.

The power up doesn't last for long as Natsu by the time Laxus went off to destroy the heart was already beginning to come back to his senses which is why he asked for Laxus' power in order to give him an edge.

This will definitely appear again and not just Natsu will get it so look forward to it!

Character Name: Elise Faulkner

Age Pre Timeskip: 20

Current Magical Abilities:

War God Slaying Magic

War God's Requip Spatial Magic

War God's Sacred Songs

War God's Armoury

War God Slayer's Regeneration

All Seeing Eyes Of The War God

Demigod Ascension – War God

Transformation Magic

Advanced Telepathy

Blood Frenzy Mode

Alright here's a character that seems to be all over the place in terms of her power right well I'm here to bring some sweet clarification on that.

Firstly Elise possesses the Lost Magic of the God Slayer aka War God Slaying Magic. Unlike every God Slayer in the main series Elise was taught by the actual God of War in her magic and therefore she is considered a First Generation God Slayer.

Now to make it clear a First Generation God Slayer has the potential to become as strong as the God that taught them the magic just like a Dragon Slayer through a technique similar to the Dragon Force known as the Demigod Ascension.

Demigod Ascension essentially makes its user embody their mentor like how Natsu in his Fire Dragon Force gets red scales and wings like Igneel Elise gains a strikingly similar appearance to Eliza.

While Elise has only pulled off this state once in its entirety the Demigod Ascension has stages that identify how close they are to achieving the state entirely.

The first stage is simply being able to enter the Demigod state, being in this state transforms Elise and grants her more powerful abilities.

The second stage is the transitional stage, this is the stage Elise was in on Tenrou and when Natsu and the others took out Twilight Ogre. In this state all her senses and physical abilities are enhanced and she gains access to the All Seeing Eyes Of The War God however she can only use one eye and is forced to rid herself of emotions.

The third stage is where she is able to use her emotions freely and open her second eye allowing her a further boost to all attributes and granting her a larger amount of magic power to draw from.

The final stage is one that grants Elise full control of the War God power, in this state she ascends to Godhood and will be almost equal to Elise though the form requires serious training before she will be able to use it effectively.

The All Seeing Eyes Of The War God are basically Sharingan but not really. See Eliza's eyes are naturally blood red thus Eyes Of The War God, what Elise is essentially doing as she gains the red eyes is ascending further and further to Eliza's level. The eyes have two purposes, to track all targets in the area and to grant access to further sealed power within.

Basically what I've made here is a series of steps Elise is taking on her path to embodying a true God of War. Step 1 is being a mere mortal with God Slayer abilities. Step 2 she begins to ascend and can now be dubbed a Demigod due to her power, Step 3 the final stage she fully ascends and is able to harness the true power of the War God.

Now there is other stuff involved in this and I'm not going to mention it yet but she's not going to reach that final step just randomly in a random arc it's going to have its own arc so look forward to that because I am.

Next we have the War God's Sacred Songs which is literally just Wendy's support magic, that's literally it nothing really else to say there.

War God's Armoury is how Elise obtains all her weapons that she fights with. Basically what Elise is doing is thinking of a particular weapon that she has been told exists in history by Eliza or someone else, reaching into the armoury and creating it in physical form on the spot.

Depending on the weapon it could be made from either Ebony, Steel, Lacrima, Diamond, Celestial Onyx (That's a type of metal I've got planned for later) or Dragon.

The material the caster can make the weapon out of must be one they are somewhat familiar with and have interacted with at least a few times before the space can accurately create something using it.

Also the space cannot recreate divine or mythical weapons like the Nakagami Spear thing Erza used like once in the Grand Magic Games and never again even though Minerva during the games was a scrub compared to Tartaros or the Spriggan 12.

All salt aside though she wont be recreating OP things like that because that would just allow for plot convenience and that's not something I'm really a fan of just pulling out a stick and saying I can bend the laws and time of space just because. Really though if you liked it I'm not gonna hold it against you but that arc by the end was an absolute mess and everyone knows that I hope I can do it justice my god.

Anyway the War God's Requip is similar to Erza's requip but she's drawing the armor from Terminus instead of her own requip space, basically all the armor she uses is armor that the soldiers of Terminus use which might sound average but let's see farmer Joe over there try and stab his pitchfork through something forged in divine fire and enchanted with divine magic.

Now obviously Elise has the God Slayers ridiculous regen ability but I still want to talk about it because it really just needs to be discussed.

We all remember during the Grand Magic Games when we found out that there were two God Slayers in the form of Chelia and that Orga guy. Seeing all the punishment Chelia was going to take we all though whoa these God Slayers are a pretty big threat!

Then came the final round and we see Jura rock up and you just think to yourself this guy is Number 5 in the Wizard Saints but can he beat that regen factor. But in one hit that Orga guy was done and it was badass by Jura but completely disappointing by Orga and really just made God Slayers look like trash until Chelia redeemed them later on a bit but that's beside the point.

What I'm trying to say is there will be no will they won't they regen for God Slayers it's a set regen factor that can be exceeded and only has one weakness and that's beheading them before the healing can even kick in.

During the Tenrou Arc I showcased a kind of beta example of the healing factors of the fight between Zancrow and Elise where Elise's healing was being taken up preventing Zancrow's black fire from essentially claiming her arm while Zancrow was taking slashes from Elise and it would heal back up even though she's a fellow God Slayer.

A God Slayers healing ability isn't just going to be ignored by me, I know Mashima probably wanted to do the Dragon King Festival stuff and just wanted Orga out of the way but it's something that bugs me to this day and I'll be making sure it doesn't happen.

In fact in all honesty it's really just gonna come down to the stamina of the Slayer, the fight between Chelia and Wendy is a pretty decent example since Chelia was a kid and didn't really have the stamina to fight for an extended period of time whereas that Orga guy should have stuck around in the fight between Laxus and Jura and he shouldn't have been a scrub.

Ok now we are hitting rant levels of cringe so I'll move on. The last thing for Elise I should probably explain is the Blood Frenzy Mode which was only explored at the start of the story.

The Blood Frenzy Mode is basically something unique to the War God Slayer. Being raised in the art of war from a young age Elise was taught to embody the spirit of war itself and immerse herself in the sensation of battle by Eliza.

Whenever Elise faces overwhelming odds and she can forsee the chance of drawing lots of blood from her enemies she slips into a trance where she will slaughter her enemies without mercy all the while becoming lost in the pleasure of battle.

Now remember back when Elise was first introduced how she got the red eyes when she entered the frenzy state well that's because during the Frenzy she embodies war in its entirety which grants her a sort of False Gods Eye I suppose we'll call it. It has no real perks but it symbolizes her thirst for blood and battle.

To be honest the Blood Frenzy was an interesting thing to give Elise considering that she wouldn't really have the chance to use it much but when she does she'll kick major ass I can promise you.

Now for Elise's stats:

Increased Senses

Due to her God Slayer training Elise has both heightened senses of hearing and visual perception, through rigorous training Elise is able to hear the Rhythm Of Battle and is capable or fighting even if blinded.

Elise has also trained her eyes to the point that she can almost predict the moment someone is about to attack though her skills in this area are lacking compared to the likes of Natsu or Gildarts.

Exceptional Strength

Due to her God Slaying training Elise possesses strength above even Erza herself. Due to her powers requiring her to be able to wield almost any weapon Elise must have the strength necessary to lift even the largest and densest of weapons such as Ebony or Dragon weapons.

Her strength also gives her an advantage in Hand To Hand Combat being able to use Eliza's War God's Armageddon Fist to match even Natsu's Fire Dragon King's series Hand To Hand attacks.

Exceptional Reflexes

Elise's sharpened senses combined with her ability to hear the Rhythm Of Battle allow her to easily outmanoeuvre or avoid attacks that would otherwise be unavoidable.

Immense Speed

Elise's speed in the guild falls second to Natsu's, being trained by Eliza has allowed Elise to reach the limits of human speed without the enhancement of magic or other outside influences.

With the addition of Demigod Ascension Elise can actually match Natsu's speed in the Dragon Force as long as he isn't using Gravity to his advantage.

Immense Durability

Being a God Slayer grants Elise the God Slayer Healing Factor which heals most injuries within minutes of receiving them.

Due to her War God training Elise was trained to endure the harshest punishment possible by Eliza, this was demonstrated when Zancrow's Black Fire was constantly burning her arm to a crisp only to have it heal and repeat for almost the entire battle yet she did not even flinch and was able to achieve enough focus to reach the next stage of Demigod Ascension.

Barring an issue with her own magic there isn't a situation Elise will not be able to walk away from making her the most durable member of Team Natsu.

Master Hand To Hand Combatant

Elise was trained by Eliza in the War God Slayer Hand To Hand Arts, as a result Elise is easily able to defeat mages who are many times her senior in combat and can even hold her own against Natsu who's fighting style and raw power make him one of the most unpredictable opponents.

Master Wielder Of Various Weapons

Elise was trained by Eliza in the War God Slayer Weapon Arts, as a result Elise is able to use almost any weapon either given to her or ones that she creates to their fullest making her a deadly opponent.

Her proficiency in weapons makes her one of the strongest weapon specialists in Earthland with only Erza Scarlett being able to match her blow for blow.

Immense Magical Power

As a War God Slayer Elise already possesses immense magical power, the magic required to create weapons and armor from materials such as Ebony require exhausting amounts of magic however Elise is able to do this on the fly.

She also has managed to tap into her Demigod Ascension which allows her to draw magic from the various combatants around her. Theoretically if Elise went into a war she would posses near infinite levels of magic similar to Eliza as she would be drawing the magic of every single combatant to herself before even having to draw upon her own.

Being able to use the Eyes Of The War God is a technique that requires immense amounts of concentration and control over ones magical core. The eyes draw upon the users magic quite heavily in order to maintain the power they grant the user.

Well I hope that did some good in clearing up a little of how Elise works because we still have Erza and Wendy to go so I hope you aren't too bored yet!

Character Name: Erza Scarlett

Age Pre Timeskip: 22

Current Magical Abilities:

Requip Spatial Magic

Transformation Magic

Fire Dragon Slayer Magic

Fire Dragon Slayer Queen Magic

Now you are probably thinking wow compared to Elise and Natsu Erza is really lacking in the magical abilities department. But the thing is that's what makes Erza's character interesting, she's able to compete with Elise as a rival even though she's got a third of the magical skills she does.

Now before we get into the Requip Magic because let's be honest we all know the tonnes of other armor and weapon requips she has so I'd rather focus on the new one that gives her the last two magic abilities.

Now going back to when she first received the armor and sword from Natsu they were called Armor Of The Brilliant Flame and Sword Of The Brilliant Flame. As they were then it was literally just a lacrima fused into the armor that Erza could draw on which would coat her weapon and possibly herself in Natsu's fire.

The lacrima is capable of recharging itself over time however once the armor comes into contact with its twin counterpart it begins to perform differently.

The second lacrima piece which Natsu possessed until he gave it to Erza before the Tower of Heaven Arc allows the rest of the armors power to work, unfortunately if you haven't trained to use the base form armor to its limits and learnt how to control the power of a Dragon it causes the user to turn feral.

This feral state is a more primal version of the Dragons Fury, its brought to the surface due to the complicated way the Dragon Slayer magic works with the body and it causes the Dragons Fury to activate until the user uses all the magic in the lacrima.

So to sum that up the feral version of Erza was brought about due to her inexperience with the abilities of the armor, what Erza did during both the Tower of Heaven and Nirvana Arcs was several times weaker than her mastered form due to not being at full mental capacity at the time.

Now her mastered armor the Armor Of The Scarlet Dragon is the fully mastered version of the armor where she has 100% control of the lacrima, something to note is the scales went from being red to scarlet red hence the name change.

While using this armor at its maximum potential Erza gains complete immunity to all fire with certain exceptions like Zancrow's God Slayer flames. The armor after becoming scarlet has hardened even further allowing for a much more solid defence than before.

Erza's sword attacks with the Sword Of The Scarlet Dragon will now be imbueded with scarlet flames in all attacks at little cost to Erza's reserves. Aside from that it's relatively the same as the Armor Of The Brilliant Flame just better in every way.

Now Erza does have one ability with this armor that is unique to her armor alone, Armor Shift: Fire Dragon Slayer Mode. Upon activation Erza's armor begins to physically change absorbing her sword into it in the process and becomes much more suited for Hand To Hand combat.

Despite the armor keeping all the scales and ebony it manages to use the lacrima from the sword to cast a spell that makes the armor weightless in addition to adding the remainder of its magic to the main lacrima.

In this form Erza gains access to all the basic Fire Dragon skills including Queen mode if she possesses enough magic to do so. Erza also can consume fire just like Natsu and all fire consumed will either replenish her own reserves or the armors allowing her to stay in the fight much longer than she previously could have without it.

Fire Dragon Queen Mode is something Erza can access pre timeskip but she needs to have nearly maximum magic reserves in the lacrima before doing so, Erza hasn't mastered using the higher forms of the technique yet and still burns much more magic than necessary to perform attacks. She only does so as just like Natsu the Monarch level grants increased destructive power and fire that burns at a much higher degree.

To put it simply the armor makes Erza a Second Generation Slayer without actually implanting a lacrima into her body rather the lacrima positions itself above her heart in the armor and links with her magic core from there.

Also two more things before I end on the armor Erza cannot access the Dragon Slayer Secret Arts using this armor as of now simply because she isn't able to harness the power well enough yet since she hasn't mastered this form.

The last thing is that unlike regular slayers including Second Generation Slayers with the lacrima implanted Erza cannot consume another element at all she is bound to fire only as it is a fire armor.

Aside from this armor Erza currently possesses one other armor she received from Eliza during her training in Terminus but before you begin to speculate no it's not a War God Slayer armor its something else entirely. I won't say what it is yet but it's a pretty solid addition to her armor collection.

Now For Erza's Stats which are Erza before she requips into any armors that grant her buffs:

Increased Senses

Erza's years of training and experience as one of Fairy Tail's top S Class mages have helped her enhance her sense of hearing and sight. Being able to hear the sound of a potential ambush or being able to perceive and counter an enemy before they've completed their attacks.

Exceptional Strength

Erza must possess great strength in order to wear and wield the vast amount of weapons and armor she has at her disposal. Being able to lift objects that are several times larger than her and blocking attacks that can wipe out a city whilst maintaining her ground demonstrates just how strong she really is.

Exceptional Reflexes

Erza's many S Class missions over the years have helped her hone her reflexes to such a degree that she can compete with people such as Elise who was trained by the God of War, Natsu who is a Wizard Saint and has a near unpredictable fighting style and Azuma who was the third strongest mage in Grimoire Heart after Bluenote Stinger.

Exceptional Speed

Erza repeatedly demonstrates vast amounts of speed as she prefers to end fights quickly before they get out of hand, being able to wipe out vast amounts of ordinary mages in seconds and being able to keep up with Azuma Erza is a force to be reckoned with.

Exceptional Durability

Erza often fight some of the strongest foes Fairy Tail has to face and usually comes out of the ordeal much stronger. During the invasion of Phantom Lord Jose fired the Jupiter Cannon which was packing enough power that Natsu's Fire Dragon King's Roar infused with a high amount of Crash Magic was the only thing able to stop it. Erza not only managed to take and block a direct hit from the Jupiter Cannon but she managed to stand her ground for the entire blast and only fainted due to magic exhaustion.

While not being the most durable of Team Natsu like Elise and Natsu Erza certainly can take a ridiculous amount of punishment.

Master Hand To Hand Combatant

Initially Erza was only proficient in Hand To Hand Combat until Eliza forced her to train up her skills to levels that rival Elise. The reasoning behind this was because her armor when in Fire Dragon Slayer Mode required her to use Hand To Hand as opposed to her usual fighting style.

Currently Erza is able to compete with top tier mages in Hand To Hand however she will use her other weapons if she is able.

Master Weapons Expert

While not possessing as many weapons as Elise the ones Erza does have she can use just as good if not better than Elise can.

Discovering her power as she escaped from the Tower of Heaven as a child Erza's natural magic revolves around the use of weapons therefore she has become one of the top Weapons Experts in Fiore rivalled only by those who have trained as rigorously as she has.

Immense Magical Power

Using her requip magic at the speed she does requires Erza to expend a large amount of magical power, despite this Erza can sometimes be seen using it up to seven times during a fight which shows she is far from lacking in magical power.

Being able to fully control her Armor Of The Scarlet Dragon requires her to have complete control over her magic core and an immense amount of power to make the shift to Fire Dragon Slayer Mode which also requires a large amount of magical power.

Character Name: Wendy Marvell

Age Pre Timeskip: 14

Current Magical Abilities:

Sky Dragon Slayer Magic

Sky Dragon Slayer Queen Magic

Sky Dragon Slayer Enchantments

Sky Dragon Slayer Secret Arts

Sky Dragon Slayer Healing Arts

Acclimatization Of The Sky Dragon

Assimilation Of The Sky Dragon

Requip Spatial Magic

All right let's get the big ones out of the way first then both Assimilation and Acclimatization of the Sky Dragon.

Now I didn't mention this earlier when I went over Natsu's usage of the two forms because Wendy is the perfect example as to why the forms exist in the first place.

The rules I've laid out for a Dragon Slayer to achieve the Dragon Force are this:

The Dragon Slayer must have full mastery over their abilities including the Monarch mode

The Dragon Slayer must have the magic power necessary to fight in the Monarch form for an extended period of time i.e. a battle that goes for longer than twenty minutes

The Dragon Slayer must have full control over their magic core which in my opinion has to be taught by someone who already does i.e. Natsu

The Dragon Slayer must be physically capable to handle the transformations

Finally the Dragon Slayer must master both Assimilation and Acclimatization of their respected Slayer element

From the very first chapter I knew exactly how these forms were going to work and designed them to be the stepping stones to the true Dragon Force ability. Both forms possess half the perks but half the drawbacks of the true Dragon Force and only by mastering and overcoming the weaknesses of the two can you achieve the Dragon Force naturally.

Of course Wendy can still go into the Dragon Force if prompted by consuming ether rich air like she did during the Tartaros Arc or by consuming the drink Natsu gave her during the Edolas Arc.

And yes this means Natsu has these forms in a Gravity variant too, will I ever use them though it'd legitimately be for humiliating or trolling an opponent because the real Gravity Dragon Force would utterly wreck someone.

And yes this also means that Gajeel, Sting and Rogue have these forms though Gajeel knows exactly why they shouldn't be used over the Dragon Force itself. As for Sting and Rogue I'm saying nothing about them until the Grand Magic Games.

But yeah these forms aren't throw away forms I designed on the fly they are actually important to unlocking the Dragon Force.

Now I know that once people read that they'll be like Azza you say they aren't throwaway well then why didn't you have Natsu go into the Dragon Force when he was fighting Hogg or Bluenote?

My answer to that question is rather simple, would you want word about your true abilities getting out? Why do you think Natsu doesn't use his Gravity Dragon Slaying Magic and instead uses ordinary Gravity techniques that people like Kagura and Bluenote can do, because Natsu's not dumb.

Like I keep saying throughout the story Natsu is normally three steps ahead of most mages he fights excluding ones like the Bharam Guild Masters, Gods and foes he isn't 100% sure about going into the fight.

Anyway this is way off topic but that's my reasoning behind the two forms.

Now Wendy learning requip, no she has no weapons or armor. Sorry to ruin peoples hopes and dreams of Erza pulling out the Nakagami Armor on some clutch type stuff but that's just not how I interpret her character.

Wendy's requip is legit just for her usual outfits (which most of them are adorable as f**k) as well as other things she needs like important items, food and water etc.

Perhaps towards the end of this fic I'd be generous and give her another use for requip but I'd have to see people actively asking for it so until then 99% chance I won't do that.

Now just for people who don't know what Sky Dragon Slayer Enchantments are those are those Support spells Wendy knows that can be used to help herself or her allies. If you want to know what Wendy's rocking in that department check the Fairy Tail Wiki it has everything there in pretty good detail.

Now I want to address Wendy's Sky Dragon Slayer Queen Mode since she hasn't actually used it yet.

Remember when Azuma said to Erza before they started fighting that Wendy put up a good fight, you have the Queen mode combined with both Assimilation and Acclimatization of the Sky Dragon to thank for that.

Basically like Natsu Wendy's Queen mode turns her attacks up to eleven, I'd say her Sky Dragon Queen's Wing Attack is rocking gale force levels of wind which in my opinion if used offensively should be able to cut through steel.

By the way before I get onto Wendy's stats I will be answering a PM I got about how Wendy got so badly injured during the Tenrou Arc and after hearing about Wendy's abilities it should give you a small idea as to how it happened.

Anyway here are Wendy's stats:

Exceptional Senses

Wendy's already highly advanced senses were honed to Natsu's level during the six months training they had together, while she isn't as experienced in real combat Natsu has trained all her senses to their peak so she will always be prepared for a fight.

Exceptional Strength

Despite her rather slim frame Wendy has quite a lot of power behind her blows, if Natsu's Iron Fist could destroy a city block then Wendy's can destroy at least a reinforced building. Training her to make the most of each blow and ensuring that she was training her body right Natsu has made Wendy far stronger than she seems.

Immense Reflexes

Wendy's senses already being on Natsu's level combined with her immense speed makes evading attacks a breeze for Wendy, her Sky Dragon Slayer abilities combined with her smaller frame allow for much easier movement and control either on the ground or in the air.

Immense Speed

Due to her small frame combined with her mastery of the Wind magics Wendy is almost on par with Elise in terms of speed and given extra training she could easily surpass her and possibly even Natsu.

Enhanced Durability

While she does ineherit increased durability thanks to her Dragon Slayer lineage her nearly unbelievable speeds and reflexes for someone her age came at a cost.

Wendy is far less durable than any of the other members of Team Natsu due to her lack of combat experience and small frame, even a single blow from what Natsu and Hades were hitting each other with would kill her without question.

Master Hand To Hand Combatant

Due to her lack of durability Natsu trained Wendy to utilize her immense speed and durability in her fighting style creating an almost hit and run style.

Natsu also trained her in his own fighting style in order to further throw off her opponents to keep them guessing which only adds to just how formidable she is.

Alright now that we've finished Wendy your all probably wondering where's Gray, where's Eliza or Gildarts? I'm not doing any of them.

Now here is my reasoning for these three specifically if you happen to be curious about anyone else or aren't satisfied with the detail in these answers PM me and I'll give you specific reasons.

First up is Gray, I'm not doing him because even though he went off with Ur to do training his Maker Magic revolves around his imagination so its not like there would be much I could say other than he's more imaginative.

You may also be asking well he might know other stuff too well not yet he doesn't but that leads me to my third point that he's not on Tenrou for the time skip. He's gonna come back with seven years over everyone and although he won't be running around with his Ice Devil Slayer Magic at that point he's still going to be an absolute powerhouse and I don't want to spoil why.

Next up is Eliza and I can sum her up right now, she's the literal God Of War! Here's her stats:

Instead Of Senses She's A God So Near OMNIPRESENCE LEVELS OF SENSES!

Unlimited Strength because you know GOD OF WAR ITSELF!

Reflexes ….. She's the God Of War itself her reflexes are on point trust me.

Speed …. We're talking about a divine being who governs war itself if she was a turtle I'd take the job.

Endurance … GOD, IMMORTAL!

And obviously she's a master of every fighting style ever because she's the God Of War but you get what I mean she's basically not worth mentioning because she's just that far away from literally everyone else that its ridiculous.

Oh but Azza you've had Natsu fight her before and you said in this very info chapter in the Elise part that Elise's final phase will be near Eliza's level of power I hear you all say and yes those things did happen.

Eliza tests those who intrigue her from time to time, as God Of War she loves to fight strong opponents but the only ones who will ever truly match her are other Gods and even then as I will outline soon not even all of them will be able to.

As for Elise's final phase I meant what I said but I also said there'd be an arc on it and there's your reason why so enjoy waiting for that because that is literally so far away its actually making me sad just thinking about it.

And finally Gildarts and with him its just a matter of its Gildarts you know we all know how it is with him, he shows up does badass stuff and leaves. Gives out the helpful advice here and there but other than that he's not 100% necessary to detail combat wise although I will say there is one thing that you do need to know.

Natsu's current 100% Level 6 Offensive Crash Magic is only a quarter of the power of Gildarts'.

Alright we've gotten through the character stuff now for the questions; these will be a mix of PM questions I got sent as well as ones left in the review section. Oh and I'll be chucking in a few I believe need to be answered too, these aren't in any particular order by the way.

Q1: How exactly do the Gods of Terminus Work, there have been several occasions where you have mentioned Gods that have roles that sound similar to each other?

To answer this question basically the way Terminus operates is there is a hierarchy, the Gods of Creation and Destruction are the highest possessing the most powerful magic of all the Gods.

Under them lie the Gods that provide the verse with everything it needs to function like the Gods of Time, Space, Life, Death and so on.

Under those Gods are the Gods of War, Peace, Chaos, Luck, Dragons and so on. These Gods while needing to perform their jobs are free to do other things unlike the higher tiers making them the Gods that actively interfere with the mortal realms.

Now these Gods have other Gods that fall under their jurisdiction for example Eliza would have the God of Melee who specializes in every fighting style ever used. This makes sense because Hand To Hand is often used for war purposes.

Below the Sub Gods I guess we'll call them are the future candidates to become a God, these candidates are determined upon their birth and taken to their respective role to be trained. While training they serve the current God of their role to their fullest and could potentially be chosen once the current God steps down which leads me to the next question.

Q2: How come Eliza wasn't the only God of War, how does one simply take another God's job?

Now this question is a really important one, basically all the people of Terminus are immortal unless it is either taken from them by other means or they are erased by the Gods of Creation and Destruction.

Due to this the Gods have a power based system where Gods can actually move up in the ranks if they are promising enough; provided they also understand the role they are going for.

Eliza for example is thousands of years old and has been the current God of War for over 1000 years; she ascended to the role after the previous God decided to simply hand over the mantle to Eliza.

Now Eliza wouldn't do this instead she would attempt to rise in the overall rankings God of Chaos being her goal. Once she had performed that role for a time she could then potentially be offered a position as a God of Destruction, that's the way the hierarchy works if you manage to get that high you are ultimately suited for either Creation or Destruction.

The only God exempt from this is Xizor who obviously has no one to pass his mantle on to since there aren't enough Dragons to do so; this gives him a unique position because his power will continue to grow as the God of Dragons forever potentially.

That's the other perk even if you leave the role you still keep the abilities of said role, Eliza who is the best War God Terminus has ever seen would become a true menace once she reached God of Chaos.

This system is in place to allow everyone in Terminus a chance to perform in the role they were initially selected for and work their way up.

Q3: You've mentioned a place that is opposite to Terminus quite a few times is that place hell, if so why haven't we seen any of them yet?

Yes I have mentioned that place quite a few times, as of yet I don't have a name for it I was thinking Purgatory or something along those lines. It sucks because Tartaros is a guild name and I would've used that straight up.

But to answer the first half of the question it's a yes and no type question, yes it is basically hell because that's where all the Demon's come from such as Deliora, Lullaby and the Demons of Tartaros.

As for why we havent seen or heard anything about it yet is simply because it hasn't been relevant to the story yet, it will become relevant later on because this realm also has its own set of Devils who rival the Gods.

And yes there is an Ice Devil so I've given that magic a place of origin though Gray won't be learning it from a Devil I actually didn't mind how he got his Devil Slayer magic in the main series.

Beyond that I can't really answer more without going into story details but I can assure you that place is coming.

Q4: Why have the Exceeds and Lucy seemingly disappeared from the story?

My reasoning is pretty simple on this one I legitimately don't know how I would write the Exceeds, I don't personally like Happy or Carla in the first place so basically I've kind of just got them hanging around in the background.

Panther Lily is an ok character but he just simply can't keep up with the top tier enemies Team Natsu has to face so just assume he's with Gajeel and Levy doing stuff.

Lucy is one that I know Lucy fans will tear me to shreds over but I simply just don't like her as a character and really didn't have any intention of including her, the only real reason she's even there is just in case I decide to do the Key To The Starry Sky Arc which in of itself wasn't very good to begin with.

Besides I have a better Arc now that I've got planned for Team Natsu to go off to do instead of that so I guess consider her character one of those characters you see in the manga or anime that are in the background and say nothing ever.

God I'm gonna cop so much for that…

Q5: Why did you not bring Lisanna back after Edolas?

Now if you all thought I was being unfair about Lucy guess what I don't like Lisanna's character either, even Hiro admitted he didn't want to bring her back but did so due to fans going rabid about it so voila Edolas Arc was born.

The thing is with Lucy I may not like her and I feel that her spirits should be thousands of times stronger than what they are and she's literally just there most of the time shouting Natsu but she did actually start to get good in the Tartaros Arc when she summoned the Celestial Spirit King, that was solid character development you can't deny that.

But Lisanna doesn't even have that and you already know why, Hiro didn't want to bring her back but the fans made it so he had little choice. So what do you do with a character that was important but after her death isn't meant to be developed further but is brought back for fanservice?

I'll tell you what Hiro did he gave her next to no proper development from a character standpoint, aside from obviously still liking Natsu and her returning giving Elfman and Mira even more character development what does she actually do?

She's asked to be Juvia's partner in the S Class Promotion Trials which was fine but then you don't get to see her do anything other than get steamrolled by Erza which is fine because its Erza its to be expected. Then Grimoire invades and Azuma uses her as a means of taking Mirajane out of the fight who in all honesty could probably have taken not only Azuma out but probably Rusty Rose and Kain Hikaru by herself.

Now we fast forward Seven Years and the Strauss siblings decide to go off to train with each other in preparation for the Grand Magic Games and you'd think oh cool Elfman and Lisanna need a massive power boost to stay relevant right?

Come crunch time Elfman got way stronger, Mira comes out rocking new Satan Souls and stuff like that while Lisanna not only hasn't improved but she isn't even selected for the games or the Lucy retrieval team.

And we all know she was captured by Tartaros and the list goes on but my point is every time I see this character she annoys me not because of herself but the way she just has been written. A big problem with me is if I don't like the way a character is written I will either completely shelf them or change them into an entirely new character but with Lisanna you really can't with this story because there isn't a need to.

She's not relevant to Team Natsu since it has 2 ½ Dragon Slayers, a War God Slayer and an Ice Make soon to be Ice Devil Slayer. To me she just doesn't work at all and I figured why include her if she's just gonna be either a mess to deal with or I rewrite her completely and people get mad.

I suppose the true answer to the last two questions is this is me being purely selfish in the sense that I don't want these characters involved in my story because I think they are irrelevant, anyone reading is free to like the characters I'm not bashing on NaLu or NaLi fans or fans of the characters themselves I just dislike them personally and choose to actively keep them out of the story.

So uh yeah I'm sure that wasn't quite the answer you expected but the whole point of this Q&A thing is so you can get an understanding of how I'm doing things with the story and how I perceive things in the Fairy Tail Verse.

Q6: What happened to Capricorn at the end of the Tenrou Arc, was he turned back into his key to be given to Lucy?

Capricorn is still very much trapped for the moment, while Gray did defeat him he wasn't aware Caprico was actually the Celestial Spirit Capricorn so he simply left him on the ground thinking he was unconscious and Caprico bailed soon afterwards meeting up with Bluenote and Rusty Rose before fleeing the island as Achnologia attacked.

Your probably wondering why I'd do this and Capricorn will be restored but it'll be when Tartaros kills him and his body returns to the spirit world, I'm only mentioning this because it's not really spoilers it just is gonna happen.

Q7: Why did Gray and Juvia leave Tenrou Island instead of stay with their friends?

Now this is actually a pretty funny one and I was hoping someone was going to ask it. Ultear and Meredy were going to leave the island the same as in the main series but Ur wanted to come too.

Now because Ur was going Gray wanted to go so he could find out more about his masters family and apologize for making it seem like Ur had abandoned Ultear.

And we all know that wherever Gray goes Juvia is close behind after all Ultear is a potential love rival and she won't let anyone have her darling Gray now will she?

And really I didn't actually think about it until after I published the chapter but both Gray and Juvia are going to get much stronger since they have spent the last 7 years training and doing missions.

So yeah what started out as me playing around turned into Gray and Juvia getting an increase in power haha I swear that wasn't intentional.

Q8: Since Natsu doesn't hate Jellal does that mean he will join Fairy Tail, does Jellal still have feelings for Erza?

Oh boy this question I know there is one reader I specifically remember not wanting any Erza Jellal Natsu drama well rest easy friend because there won't be.

Jellal won't be joining Fairy Tail since the idea of Crime Sorciere is actually quite good and I think I'll leave that the same. As for Jellal's feelings he understands that Erza has moved on and he has as well, deciding to devote his life to fighting Dark Mages to atone for his crimes.

I can understand why people don't want the romance drama because honestly Erza waited for almost 10yrs for Natsu why would she betray him after he's done nothing but care about her. So it's a no on both questions.

Q9: Could you please explain your reasoning as to why Natsu has to struggle against every character he's fought so far in the story so far?

Yeah this is a question I was going to put in regardless if anyone asked it or not.

The way I view the power scaling is like this, any mage who is S Class or above MUST be leagues stronger than a regular guild mage.

Anyone who is a member of a Dark Guild like the Bharam Alliance MUST be as strong as an S Class mage even its weakest members.

Any regular Guild Master of a competent guild must be stronger than almost all their mages excluding maybe a select few. They also need to be able to perform impressive magical feats for me to consider them legitimate for example Makarov and Jose were both Wizard Saints and could use ridiculous amounts of magic.

Dark Guild Masters must be some of the strongest mages in Fiore, the Bharam leaders in particular have to be Wizard Saint level or higher.

For a mage to be a Wizard Saint they need to be some of the most powerful characters in the series, this isn't a spoiler but when Makarov said during the GMG that Jura was as strong as Gildarts that will be true in this story.

Now if you look at Natsu's track record of who he's gone all out against you'll find that he's fighting the strongest enemy available all the time. Starting with Bluenote he could create black holes and has power that is nearly on both Natsu and Gildarts' scale so thumbs up for him.

Next up is Jellal the man was one of the youngest Wizard Saints ever and also served on the Magic Council even though he only had HALF his actual power. He gets a thumbs up.

The next fight was not just Brain/Zero but also Jellal and Cobra, he was able to go three on one against them and only get slightly hurt. Thumbs up.

I won't count Ravus because Eliza did most of the work there but I'm sure from those examples you all get where I'm going with this. If I had Natsu steamroll every single antagonist where would the fun be in the story, while this is a fic about Natsu being leagues stronger keep in mind that even end of series he still was far from top tier.

Q10: In terms of power scaling where would you rank Natsu among the Wizard Saints now, I know he's currently in Jose's spot but surely he should be higher?

Well this is a pretty simple question where Natsu stands right now if he were using all of his power he'd be just shy of being the weakest of the Ishgar Four. Natsu still has a ways to go but trust me he's definitely going to get there.

Q11: Are we ever going to see the Scarlione Empire or is it just being used to propel the story forward?

Had to save this for last and I'm sure you all know why, naturally Natsu is going back to Scarlione and most of Team Natsu will be going with him. The Scarlione Empire Arc as I'll refer to it now will be my longest Arc so far and will be pretty crazy.

It was inevitable that Natsu was going to return and given the seven year gap its perfect for all sorts of events to occur there that would force Queen Illyandra to recall Natsu and Gildarts, oh and by the way keep in mind that Scarlione runs on a system of who's the strongest in order to survive so take that however you want.

Just going to leave you all with that because teasing is fun!

And that about concludes this Q&A thing, hopefully you all learnt something about how I perceive the characters and how certain things work in my fic.

Remember if you want something clarified that wasn't added just PM me, I may not get back to you on the day but I do check my account all the time so I'm more than happy to answer any questions or receive feedback.

And hey if you all enjoyed this let me know and I'll do another one after the Tartaros Arc which is much further away than you think.

Anyway I hope you all enjoyed this and I'll see you all in the next chapter!
