Arsenal[]
- Staff: Irene wields a massive light-brown staff in her right hand, matching, if not surpassing, its owner's height, and being divided into two large, inwardly curved antlers near the top; considerably below those, the weapon begins to be overlaid with brown leopard-skin spots that extends up to the antler's tips. It has yet to be revealed if the staff fulfills a specific purpose. She has shown to use her staff in conjunction with her Magic, simply by tapping the ground or waving the wooden artifact as if it were a wand to induce her abilities.
Noteworthy Techniques and Abilities[]
Universe One (ユニバースワン Yunibāsu Wan): Also known as World Reconstruction Magic (世界再構築魔法 Sekai Sai Kōchiku Mahō), Irene, by firstly enchanting the land, can manipulate the very geography of the ground itself, with the ability of compressing the land to as much as five percent (or less) of its original size, thereby altering the entire landscape. The true purpose of this Magic is the power of bringing certain things or people to specific areas and locations, for example pushing the Emperor to the Fairy Tail Guild where Fairy Heart is located, while vanquishing Acnologia to deep into the sea. There are major side effects, as the new age Magic teleports all the inhabitants of the area (including Irene herself) and even structures and landmarks randomly all over the affected area. An indication to its power lies in the area of effect and Zeref's shock at the fact that Irene would cast it in the first place. Irene calls this Magic one of "a new era," indicating that it was created rather recently and would thus be unknown to someone who has knowledge of all Magics of old, such as Acnologia. She also noted that the casting she performed against Acnologia was her first ever time using Universe One.
Eye Magic (眼の魔法 Me no Mahō): Irene has shown the ability to remotely view an area by summoning a giant eye in the sky over the location she wants to see and linking this eye with her true one. Both the giant eye and her real eye show a cross-shape pattern while the Magic is active.
Sage Dragon Slayer Magic (賢の滅竜魔法 Ken no Metsuryū Mahō): Irene possesses Sage Dragon Slayer Magic, and was the one who created it for use in the Dragon King Festival. In her original body, it appears that Irene can only access her Sage Dragon Slayer Magic while in her Dragon form, with the most notable benefit is that it allows her to magnify the power of her enchantments. Her four hundred years of experience in said Magic allowed her to effortlessly, and almost masterfully, make use of Wendy's Sky Dragon Slayer Magic the very first time she tried using it.
- Sage Dragon's Roar (賢竜の咆哮 Kenryū no Hōkō): Being a Dragon, so long as she has assumed this shape, Irene can spout destructive blasts from her mouth like the rest of the race, which can easily decimate an entire castle.
Enchantment (付加術 Fukajutsu): Irene has shown extremely high proficiency in the art of enchantment; so much that she's classified as a High Enchanter ( Hai Enchantā), evidenced by her ability to change and alter landscapes, climates, and the terra firma of the world, as well as manipulate the atmosphere, objects, people, even able to turn inanimate objects into fully functioning people or humans into animals. It's been noted by Zeref that she's prodigious when it comes to attaching and detaching Magic from objects, as seen when she offers to detach Fairy Heart from Mavis, something which should normally be impossible. However, due to Fairy Heart's complex nature, this task proves time-consuming and delicate for even Irene.
- Basic Enchantments
- Berserker ( Bāsākā): Irene can enchant her target(s) into a monstrous form that increases all their basic parameters by incredible levels, but at the cost of the target(s) intelligence and reasoning.
- Disappear (消えてなくなれ Kietenakunare): Irene creates multiple enchanted explosions.
- Conceptual Enchantment (概念 Gainen Enchanto): Irene taught this enchantment to Wendy which allows her to focus on forging different types of attributes with other attributes, techniques, or people.
- High Enchantments
- Separation Enchantment (分離 Bunri Enchanto): Irene has access to this enchantment, which allows her to separate Magic or other enchantments from someone. She originally used this to try and extract Fairy Heart from Mavis.
- Deus Zero ( Deusu Zero): Irene uses this enchantment on Wendy to negate her enchantment from Erza, but failed when Wendy also proved herself to be able to cast this particular enchantment.
- Personality Enchantment (人格 Jinkaku Enchanto): Irene has access to this Enchantment, which allows her to augment a personality onto an object or human. Irene used this enchantment to give life to a pair of swords and to transfer her personality into Wendy's body.
- Juliet Sun (ジュリエット・サン Jurietto San): She is a member of the Irene Squad and originally a white sword enchanted into a human being by Irene.
- Heine Lunasea (ハイネ・ルナシー Haine Runashī): She is a member of the Irene Squad and originally a black sword enchanted into a human being by Irene.
Dragon Form: As her human form was given to her via an enchantment from Zeref, Irene can break the enchantment at her whim and re-assume her true form as a Dragon.
- Immense Strength: Irene has immense strength as a Dragon, being able to easily break through stone structures, crush a human being to death, and effortlessly break both of Erza's legs and her left arm with a casual swipe of her hand.
- Flight: While she can fly in her human form, Irene can also fly in this form, but in the more conventional sense.
- Enhanced Magic Power: In her Dragon Form, Irene is the Sage Dragon (as Belserion gave her her power), and has her already immense Magic Power increased to much larger levels, which allows her to greatly increase the power of her enchantments.
- Master Enchantments: According to her, with the Sage Dragon's great power, Irene can increase the power of her enchantments to levels that no human could reasonably cast, something that transcends the land, the sky and the seas, and allows her to enchant the heavens themselves. These enchantments are of a higher rank than "High Enchants" ( Hai Enchanto) and are thus known as "Master Enchants" ( Masuta Enchanto)
- Deus Sema ( Deusu Sēma): Using the immense power gifted to her by transforming into a Dragon, Irene enchants a rather large asteroid in space to come crashing down to earth as a meteor. If the meteor were to strike the ground it would annihilate the entirety of the area surrounding the new location of the Fairy Tail Guild. Deus Sema is a higher ranked, stronger version of Jellal's True Heavenly Body Spell Sema.
Expert Staffmanship: Although not using it for actual combat very often, Irene is proficient and dexterous enough with her staff to be able to read and parry Erza's sword swings on several occasions with absolutely no effort.
Flight: Irene has shown that she can fly to any location.
Master Sensor: Irene has shown to be able to sense presence of Mages to great extent and determine how strong they are without them being near her, as she could sense Crime Sorcière and Acnologia from a relatively long distance, unlike her subordinates.
