SynopsisEdit

Grand Magic Games arcEdit

When the Fairy Tail rescue team finds Arcadios lying injured on the ground, the Garou Knights Leader surrounds them with his fellow executors.^[1] As his team attacks the Fairy Tail Mages, the Leader simply watches until everyone ends up separated because of the explosion that occurred when Grow Flow was destroyed. The Leader ends up with Natsu Dragneel who he proceeds to fight saying that he will execute him for his sins.^[2] Unleashing his scythes, the Garou Knights Leader immediately attacks Natsu with fast slashes aiming for his neck, Natsu then quickly dodges them and when he finds an opening, grabs one of the Garou Knights Leader's scythes and destroy it.^[3]

The Garou Knights Leader is surprised and is eventually disarmed by Natsu making him defenseless. Natsu continually punches the Leader with no chances of a counterattack. With his back to the wall, the Garou Knights Leader questions Natsu whether he understands that his actions will subject him as an enemy of the Kingdom Of Fiore but a furious Natsu finishes him stating that for the sake of his friends and family he is willed to view anyone his enemy. Natsu lands a flaming punch on him as the Leader bursts through the wall ending in with the same place where his other fellow executioners lie unconscious around him, defeated. Natsu asks the Garou Knights Leader where the exit is located otherwise he will be the one who will "execute" him.^[4]

A while later, the Garou Knight Leader and the rest of his partners manage to recover from their battle, and together head out to continue their mission and locate Natsu and his group. Finding the Fairy Tail Mages battling the Royal Army whilst trying to escape Mercurius in the underground passages of the castle, the Garou Knights Leader approaches Natsu, stating that whilst he understands Natsu's philosophies, he wants his own to be understood too. Out-rightly stating that he will never let sinners escape the kingdom, the Garou Knights Leader is met with Natsu's angry response.^[5] With the battle looking in favor of the Kingdom of Fiore, the Garou Knight Leader tells Natsu and his friends to surrender. However this advantage is short lived as the shadow under Uosuke begins to grow. The shadow then consume the Army and Garou Knights in the blind confusion of the moment, leaving only the Fairy Tail mages in the tunnels.^[6]

Magic and AbilitiesEdit

Expert Scythe Specialist: While described as possessing a form of Magic thought for killing efficiently,^[7] the leader of the Garou Knights has only been shown employing his two scythes during his battle with Natsu Dragneel, demonstrating remarkable ability in swinging them despite their massive size, and, true to his beliefs, aiming for his foe's neck with great accuracy despite the sheer speed of his slashes.^[8]

Enhanced Strength: The executioner has displayed a high degree of physical strength, being capable of effortlessly swinging around each of his large scythes with a single hand. The attacks he performs with these very same weapons are shown to be powerful enough to cut solid stone, slicing cleanly through pillars and walls without losing their momentum.^[8]

Enhanced Durability: The Garou Knights Leader appears to be considerably durable, being struck by Natsu's Fire Dragon's Iron Fist and sent crashing through a stone wall (which was reduced to pieces in the process) only to emerge seemingly unscathed afterwards, merely displaying shock at his opponent's will to make an enemy of the Kingdom. He was also the only member of his group to remain awake after his defeat, which had him sent crashing through yet another stone wall.^[4]

EquipmentEdit

Double Scythes: The Garou Knights Leader carries around two identical scythes on his back with the handles crossed. These scythes do not seem to possess any Magical abilities, but are deadly in their own right.
