Appearance

Without Makarov’s Titan MagicWithout Makarov’s Titan Magic | With Makarov’s Titan MagicWith Makarov’s Titan Magic

Reedus is a tall man with curly, light orange hair, whose most distinctive feature was his extremely large and round torso, which made his limbs look much smaller than they actually look in comparison, a result of Makarov’s Titan Magic, with Reedus having asked him that to better use his Pict Magic. He has a rectangular-shaped face which sported prominent, linear cheekbones.^[1] Seven years after the disappearance of Tenrou Island, Makarov’s Titan spell worn off, with Reedus returning to his original, slim appearance as a result. His cheekbones appear to have disappeared from sight, and his hair is also seemingly cut slightly shorter.^[2]

Reedus’ first outfit consisted of a white shirt fitting his chest’s size, with sleeves rolled up to his elbows, dark pants, dark, pointed shoes adorned by light crescent moon-like motifs on the inner sides, and a distinctive dark hat, with a large brim, a curved point hanging down on Reedus’ left and a light orange band around it, highly reminiscent of those worn by fictional sorcerers. Reedus’ shirt was once shown reading “I’ll defeat Erza and Laxus” in large letters, something which was written by Natsu Dragneel, but which couldn’t be used for his Pict Magic.^[1] After the time skip, Reedus switched to an attire more closely resembling that of a fictional French artist, consisting of a dark vest over a light shirt with rolled-up sleeves, dark pants and striped shoes with plain tips. Around his neck is a large, and light-coloured ribbon, he wears a dark top hat with a light band around it and a pair of glasses-like goggles on his eyes.^[3]

Personality

Reedus doesn't seem to be very brave, seen when he stated he was "afraid" of Laxus Dreyar when Makarov noticed him hiding in the building,^[4] however he will do important jobs if asked, like protecting Lucy from Phantom Lord^[5] and finding help during the Battle of Fairy Tail. He loves to draw happy scenes, such as when Happy was first born.^[6] Reedus also likes to portray other people, like drawing Mirajane and Freed just for having good looks. Reedus has a habit of using French words, like "Oui" (French for "yes") and "Pardon" (French for "sorry").^[7]

Reedus is very kind, and compassionate as well. When Reedus draws people he respects his models a great deal, as he always asks them if they are tired or not.^[8]

History

Reedus is one of the veteran Mages, having joined when Natsu Dragneel was still a child. He was not as large then as he had not yet asked Makarov to alter his size. He was seen drawing Happy when he was first born.^[6] Sometime after this, Reedus requested that Makarov use his Titan Magic on him. This is what made his chest so large. It is assumed he asked this to increase the potential for his Pict Magic.^[9]

Synopsis

The Fight is Cut Short as a Messenger from the Magic Council announces that Erza Scarlet is to be Put Under Arrest, Much to Natsu's Frustration.^[13]

Galuna Island arc

Reedus then uses Carriage and Boar, and puts Lucy in the carriage.^[5]

After Gajeel, Sue and Boze find Lucy, Reedus comes to her defense. As Reedus prepares Roar of Silver he tells Lucy to run away. Lucy says she will. Sue teases them saying they are going to make her cry. After Reedus launches his Roar of Silver, Sue uses Form Mirror which repels all of the Vulcan's attacks back at them. As Lucy tries to run away, Gajeel kicks her in the face. Reedus unable to help, gets hit by Boze's Howling, defeating him. After Loke found him battered, he was ashamed over not being able to protect Lucy.^[20] After Phantom Lord is defeated, and the Fairy Tail Guild is destroyed, Lucy feels bad. Reedus, along with Levy, Jet, and Droy tell her not to feel bad. Reedus apologizes for being of no use. Lucy just shakes her head and starts to cry.^[21]

Fighting Festival arc

When Lucy comes out in a bunny costume for the reporter, Reedus stares at her confused.^[22] Reedus is impressed at Erza's outfit during the Harvest Festival's Beauty Contest.^[23] After the Battle of Fairy Tail begins and everyone rushes out of the building the beauty contest was taking place, Makarov spots Reedus who stayed behind. Reedus apologizes saying he is scared of Laxus. Makarov disregards that and asks Reedus to try to go to Porlyusica's House because she might have a cure for the stone curse Evergreen used on Fairy Tail Members. He says okay, but is then interrupted by Natsu who wakes up from his battle with Laxus. He tries to go through the barrier, but it says only people under 80 can go through. Reedus, Makarov, and Happy gape in confusion.^[4]

As Reedus runs towards Porlyusica's house he is stopped by Freed's runes. Freed then appears himself, but then so does a Maid Lucy, which Reedus made before hand. As Maid Lucy distracts Freed, Reedus tries to climb over a brick wall. Freed catches him and slashes him, causing him to fall to the ground. Freed compliments Reedus on his Magic, and admits he would have been fooled if he had no information of it. Reedus begs Freed to stop hurting people, claiming he wasn't that type of man. Reedus then faints.^[24] After the battle, Evergreen opened up to the guild by asking Reedus to draw a portrait of her, however she claimed she would never pose nude, no matter how much he begged her. However, the thought never crossed his mind.^[25]
