Fairy Tail: Exceed Race Explained

Fairy Tail: Unveiling the True Power of the Exceeds

Welcome to the magical world of Fairy Tail, where mystical beings roam freely. One such race of mythical creatures is the Exceeds, who initially seemed like cute cat-like creatures that fit right into this fantastical realm. Little did we know that these feline beings held a secret that would shake the foundations of the series!

The Exceeds: From Divine Guardians to Cat Conquerors

The Exceeds were believed to be angelic beings who ruled over the world of Edolas from the sky. As the only creatures in Edolas capable of harnessing natural magic, they were revered as god-like beings. Queen Shagotte, the most powerful of the Exceeds, possessed the ability to kill humans with ease, further solidifying their status as superior beings.

But not everyone was content with this power dynamic. King Faust of the Kingdom desired to reclaim control over Edolas, leading to a plan that threatened the existence of the Exceeds.

The Revolt and the Lacrima of Doom

Humans who resented the Exceeds’ rule joined forces with Faust, the kingdom’s ruler, to overthrow them. Using a device called Anima, Faust trapped the Fairy Tail guild in a massive lacrima floating above Edolas. His intention was to crash the lacrima into Extalia, the home of the Exceeds, annihilating them and gaining complete control over Edolas.

Luckily, Team Natsu thwarted Faust’s plan, but not before unveiling a shocking truth about the Exceeds.

The Real Power of the Exceeds: Paws for Thought

After the revolt, the true nature of the Exceeds was finally exposed. Far from being divine beings, they were simply cat-like creatures capable of flight. In terms of strength, they couldn’t hold a candle to humans and had only one spell in their repertoire – Aera, which sprouts wings to enable flight.

So how did the Exceeds manage to gain power over humans? Through lies and manipulation by their elders. The Exceeds spread rumors about their ability to assassinate humans at will, using Queen Shagotte’s supposed power of seeing the future. In reality, Queen Shagotte could only foresee the time of a human’s death, and the elders used this to strike fear into the hearts of their subjects.

Their Mission: More Than Just Chasing Dragon Slayers

The Exceeds’ presence on Earthland, as seen through Happy and Carla, was part of a plan to save their kind from extinction. After Queen Shagotte foresaw the destruction of Extalia, the elders devised a plan to send a hundred Exceed eggs to Earthland. The new generation of Exceeds was tasked with the mission of capturing Dragon Slayers and bringing them back to Edolas to harness their magic power. However, this was just another fabrication to ensure the Exceeds’ survival.

Once the Anima machine was reversed by Mystogan, the Exceeds found themselves transported alongside the Fairy Tail guild to Earthland. They made their home in the lush forests of Fiore, while some ventured out to locate the remaining 98 Exceed eggs scattered throughout Earthland.

So join the adventure in Fairy Tail and discover the hidden power of the Exceeds!
