Gajeel Redfox

Gajeel Redfox

"Kurogane" Gajeel Redfox (ガジル・レッドフォックス Gajiru Reddofokkusu?), similar to Natsu Dragneel and Wendy Marvell, is a Dragon Slayer raised by the dragon Metalicana. His Iron Dragon Slayer magic (鉄の滅竜魔法 Tetsu no Metsurū mahō) grants him the ability to transform parts of his body into metal weapons such as clubs and swords, cover his body with nearly indestructible metal scales, and breathe gusts of wind containing metal shards capable of shredding a person's body.He can also consume metal objects for nourishment. Initially a member of Phantom Lord, his attack on Fairy Tail results in war between the two guilds and eventually joins Fairy Tail at Makarov Dreyar's request. At first distrusted by the members of Fairy Tail, Gajeel proves his loyalty to them. He develops a fierce rivalry with Natsu and harbors a resentment of cooperating with him unless forced to do so. He also comes to good terms with Levy McGarden after saving her from Laxus Dreyar's attack in Magnolia, and later partners with her for the S-Class exam on Sirius Island. Under Makarov's orders, Gajeel acts as a double agent to spy on Raven Tail's master Ivan Dreyar, which he is forbidden to reveal to his guildmates.After noticing Natsu and Wendy's cat partners, Gajeel becomes self-conscious of the fact that he is the only Dragon Slayer without a cat partner until he fights and befriends Panther Lily, whom he openly adores. In the Japanese version of the series, Gajeel is voiced by Wataru Hatano. In the English dub, his nickname is changed to "Black Steel" and he is voiced by David Wald.
