Wendy Marvell

He possesses the ability to create toxins and is also immune to them. Additionally, he possesses Hearing Magic, allowing him to listen to a person’s soul. This grants him the ability to understand their true feelings and anticipate their actions. In exchange for this power, he gave up his right eyesight to obtain Sound Magic.
Rogue Cheney
The Sabertooth guild sent him to the future to aid in defeating Acnologia. As a skilled mage, he possesses the unique ability of Shadow Dragon Slayer Magic, which enables him to transform into a dragon.
Despite being a Third-generation Dragon Slayer and having the ability to enter the most powerful form of Dragon Slayer, he remains a quiet individual who rarely displays his emotions.

In addition to his magical prowess, he is also a skilled hand-to-hand combatant with enhanced speed and durability.

In addition to Dragon’s Roar, Eternal Flare, and Power of the End, he possesses the ability to use Time Magic and Healing Magic. While he is unable to fully heal fatal wounds, he is able to stop bleeding. Furthermore, he has the unique ability to identify individuals by their scents.
