Appearance
Gray is a tall, well-built young man with spiky black hair and dark blue eyes. He is usually seen with a serious or stoic expression. One of his quirks is his habit of unconsciously stripping down to his underwear, a habit he developed during his training as an Ice Mage. His casual attire includes simple pants and shirts, but he is often seen shirtless, especially during battles. He bears the Fairy Tail Guild mark on his chest.
