“ | Any power that surpasses reason still comes from reason, right? Magic isn't some kind of miraculous power. It is a talent that only works when the flow of energy inside of us, and the flow of energy in the natural world are in perfect synchronization. To perform magic, one must have a strong mind and the ability to focus. It shall take over your being and poor over your soul! If all we do is worry about rules, then our power will never progress. Don't let those blow-hards on the council scare you. Follow the path you believe in! 'Cause that's what makes the Fairy Tail guild number one! | „ |
~ Makarov Dreyar to Fairy Tail. |
Fairy Tail (妖精の尻尾, フェアリーテイル, Fearī Teiru) is the strongest Guild in the Kingdom of Fiore and is the titular main protagonist faction of the anime/manga series of the same name. The name of "Fairy Tail" represents a sense of adventure for one to be able to discover more about mysteries and fate. Fairy Tail was originally disbanded following its war with Tartaros but was revived and recreated a year later by its more prominate members.
History[]
“ | Do fairies really have tails? Do they even exist... Like them, this place as an eternal mystery... A never ending adventure! | „ |
~ Makarov Dreyar about the true meaning of Fairy Tail in "Now We're Even" |
Formed by Mavis Vermillion, Yuri Dreyar, Precht Gaebolg (who would later become known as Hades) and Warrod Sequen in X686, Fairy Tail is the most famous wizards' guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, most widely known for producing some of the most powerful wizards in the history of magic—so powerful, in fact, they cause unintended destruction no matter what they do. Founded over one hundred years ago by Mavis Vermillion, the guild was named in honor of the age old question, "Do fairies have tails? Do they even exist?", which represents an mystery, and thus an eternal adventure. As the titular guild of the series, its members and the adventures they embark on serve as the central focus of the series.
Fairy Tail is stationed in the town of Magnolia, its original guildhall standing for nearly a century until its destruction and subsequent renovation following a war with the rival guild Phantom Lord in X784. The guild suffered a seven-year dark period after its strongest members went missing along with its sacred ground of Sirius Island, although it returned to its former glory after said members returned in X791 and broke the guild's losing streak in the annual Grand Magic Games. In the aftermath of the battle with Tartaros, Fairy Tail officially dissolved to avoid being targeted by the Alvarez Empire, which wished to exploit its darkest secret. After one year of physical and emotional recovery, the guild reunited for good.
Strength[]
Fairy Tail as a whole is by far the most powerful guild of the series. Not only because they have far more higher number of powerful individuals than any other guild, but also because their S-Class wizards are much more powerful than S-Class wizards of other guilds, while Fairy Tail's S-Class candidates can compete with S-Class mages of other guilds, if not outright beat them. Case in point, Fairy Tail is the only guild where both of its teams manages to qualify during the Grand Magic Games' main spectacle.
Members[]
In spite of the guild's immense reputation and fame, becoming a member of Fairy Tail requires little more than the simple approval of the Guild Master, regardless of Magical capabilities, former allegiances or the other members' opinion. This seems to be particularly true, as Makarov Dreyar had no troubles letting in Juvia Lockser, a former Mage of the Phantom Lord guild, which had started a Guild War with Fairy Tail and caused it great damage; Gajeel Redfox, another Mage from Phantom Lord who had badly injured Fairy Tail's Shadow Gear team and wreaked havoc on the guild's first building, was even invited into Fairy Tail by Makarov himself, with the Guild Master claiming that it was his duty to "guide young men who have lost their way back onto the right path". In year X784, Fairy Tail was composed by roughly 100 members. However, due to the events of Tenrou Island, the number of Mages was heavily reduced, remaining quite scant even following the return of many of the guild's top members from the island itself, ranking in few tens.
Mirajane Strauss, while talking to Lucy Heartfilia, explained that everyone in Fairy Tail carries the wounds of a sad past.

Trivia[]
- Fairy Tail is unofficially an orphanage for children without families but have the potential to be wizards. Hence why Gray, Natsu, Erza, Cana, Mirajane, Lisanna and Elfman are allowed to join despite their youth.
