Animus

* Appearance
* Profile

**Animus** (アニムス, *Animusu*?) is a main character in the fan-made series **Universal Warriors** and the main antagonist of **Fairy Tail: Dragon Cry**.

Animus was a **Dragon** who became the king of **Stella**.

## Personality

In the distant past Animus was like many other dragons who were against co-existence, seeing humans as simple food. His time within Sonya appeared to have changed him, as Animus was mentioned by Sonya to be kind in the past but due to the lust of obtaining the Dragon Cry staff affecting him, he has become cruel in the present time. As a ruler he is harsh and demanding, punishing Zash when allowing intruders to acquire the ancient weapon. His desire to revive the world of Dragons guided him to become the manipulative person he has shown. At his death bed he showed his caring side, mentioning he was surprised but in joy to have finally seen Sonya smile.

## Character Design

In his true form as a Dragon, Animus is a blue, scaly large beast with most notably his crystallized features resembling Stellanium protruding from his body, such as his horns and claws. His jaw is spiky, while his wings are in the same design with jagged edges coming from them.

In his human form, Animus is a tall, young and slender man with golden hair and purple eyes. He wears orange, gold or bronze, armor (with a matching crown) underneath a large, gold-trimmed, white shoulder cape that in and of itself features exaggerated, pointed shoulders. The cape features a golden emblem on its left side; the outfit is finished with matching white and gold boots.

The second, where he has some of the Dragon Cry's energy fired into him, makes him take on a bright glowing white appearance.

### Equipment

#### Former Equipment

* **Dragon Cry** (竜の涙(ドラゴンクライ), "Doragon Kurai"): With the help of Zash Caine, Animus obtained the Dragon Cry from Fiore, he proved capable of using some of its power while in Sonya's body and upon returning to his dragon form was able to use it to empower himself.

## Story

### Original

In his past, he, Zirconis and a third dragon came across Sonya who they attacked after they deemed she wasn't appetizing enough for them. Acnologia, the one who murdered all the Dragons that participated in the Dragon King Festival, appeared before Animus and his gang and killed the ones that harmed her and left him on the verge of death himself. He later convinced Sonya to allow him to use her body as a container to recover. This eventually led to him befriending the young Sonya, leading the two to sneak in and disrupt the Eclipse Gate ceremony in regards to Anna and Zeref's plan which sent the intertwined two to Stella; thereafter revolutionizing the country which in turn allowed Animus to become the king of Stella and then appointing Sonya to be his aide.
