Highlights
- Fairy Tail showcases a diverse range of fire mages, each with unique abilities and strengths.
- Characters like Natsu and Ignia wield fire with ease, showcasing impressive fire magic skills.
- From control over black flames to being resistant to fire, these mages prove their dominance in battle.
Fairy Tail has a very colorful cast of characters that have entertained fans for years. Mages with different sorts of powers are on display in every episode. That said, like with most pieces of fiction that involve magic, the core elementals are always present: fire, water/ice, wind, electricity, and the like.
Fairy Tail has a fair few fire users of varying degrees of skill, and these mages are worth discussing. It should be noted, that this discussion will exclude dragons that have no humanoid form, like Atlas Flame, or characters that haven’t used their fire in combat, like Jellal and Makarov.
9 Totomaru
He Can Control All Sorts Of Flames
- Affiliation – Phantom Lord
Totomaru is a former member of the Phantom Lord Guild, and he was one of the Element 4. His corresponding element is fire, and he is able to manipulate this element to his will and can make use of all sorts of flames.
He was able to initially inflict damage on Natsu by forcing his flames to hit him. He could also unleash foul flames to overwhelm Natsu’s excellent sense of smell. His power was impressive, and after the Phantom Lord arc, he became a teacher of fire magic, even teaching Romeo Conbolt.
8 Wed
The Strongest Swordsman In Guiltina
- Affiliation – Fire And Flame
Wed is one of those characters who has yet to make an appearance in the Fairy Tail anime and one that fans hope to see in the future. He is a dark mage from Guiltina and is able to use both flame and sword magic.
He gave Erza significant problems when the two faced off. He was able to engulf his sword in flames like Yamamoto from Bleach and initially broke Erza’s. When Wed used his “Flame-Killing Overlord Sword,” it was able to shatter Erza’s Armadura Armor, further showcasing just how powerful of a fire user he is.
7 Erza Scarlet
A Mage With Many Talents
- Affiliation – Fairy Tail
Erza is one of the strongest mages in all of Fairy Tail. What makes her so strong is her mastery of several forms of magic and the ability she has to wield different weapons. Erza’s primary magic is not fire, but when she dons the Flame Empress armor, she is able to manipulate the element.
One of the more impressive features of her armor is also that it makes her flame resistant, which is really handy in battle, especially for someone who is able to use fire.
6 Mirajane Strauss
Can Take The Form Of A Demon To Use Fire Magic
- Affiliation – Fairy Tail
Mirajane is another mage who, through the capabilities of her magic, can wield a variety of elements. In Mira’s case, her takeover magic, Satan Soul, is very powerful and allows her to take the form of various demons.
One of the most powerful is Satan Soul: Sitri, in which she takes on the form of a powerful demon and can use fire magic in that state. She emits a lot of fire from her feet, which makes her even more dangerous in hand-to-hand combat, as she can inflict further damage thanks to the flames.
5 Zancrow
The Black Flame God
- Affiliation – Grimoire Heart
Zancrow was a dark mage from Grimoire Heart and was raised by master Hades. He is a God Slayer who considers himself superior to all dragon slayers, but he was eventually taken out by Zeref.
His strength was impressive, as he was a mage whose flames could not be eaten by Natsu initially, and the latter had to expel all his fire to take in Zancrow’s. His black flames are incredible, and he was only defeated when his own flames were used on him, further highlighting how powerful of a fire user he was.
4 God Serena
Can Control Eight Different Types Of Dragon Slayer Magic
- Affiliation – Spriggan 12
God Serena is one of the Spriggan 12 and one of the most powerful foes that Fairy Tail ever came up against. He was able to make short work of a group of wizarding saints with little trouble.
He died at the hands of Acnologia, but some sort of copy of him was brought back in the battle against Magnolia. He has the ability to control 8 different dragon slayer magics, including fire, which he can combine with other things to make it much harder to counteract. On top of that, his fire can’t be consumed by the likes of Natsu.
3 August
The Overpowered Wizard King
- Affiliation – Spriggan 12
August is a member of the Spriggan 12 and is considered perhaps the strongest one. He is able to use different kinds of magic, most notably his copy magic, which enables him to use any magic as long as he comes in contact with it.
One of the magics he can wield due to this power is fire magic, which he uses at a prodigious level. He is able to almost overpower Natsu with it and, in terms of overall combat, is almost unbeatable. The only person he seems to fear is Acnologia.
2 Ignia
The Son Of Igneel Who Can Wield Fire At Will
- Affiliation – Fire And Flame
Ignia is the Fire Dragon God and the biological son of Igneel, who was the king of dragons and Natsu’s adoptive father. Ignia is one of the five dragon gods that live in Guiltina.
He is immensely powerful, having access to the ability to wield fire at will. He is also said to have no smell, which means that he cannot easily be detected by dragon slayers. He can create great pillars of fire, and it is hinted that, while he cannot defeat Acnologia, he might not be completely blown away when attempting to do so. Also, he defeated Selene, the Moon Dragon God.
1 Natsu Dragneel
Has Access To Incomparable Fire Abilities
- Affiliation – Fairy Tail
Natsu is the main protagonist of the Fairy Tail series, and it is only natural that he is considered the strongest fire user since he finds a way to defeat every foe. Natsu is able to manipulate fire and can use it to his advantage when facing off against enemies.
What makes Natsu so impressive as a fire mage is the fact that he is generally impervious to fire, which is a huge plus. Not only that, but he can also consume fire from other mages and use it to power up his abilities. As proven by his battle with Zancrow, he can even consume black flames and use them himself.
