Cobra (Fairy Tail)

How Cobra joined the Tourney
Jellal enslaved Erik as a child until Brain arrived at the Tower of Heaven and took Erik and four other enslaved children to become members of his own guild, all with Jellal's permission. Erik soon became a member of the Oración Seis, one of the three most powerful Dark Guilds, and, along with his guildmates, began to seek out the lost, destructive Magic, Nirvana.

At some point before seeking Nirvana, Erik implanted Dragon Lacrima into his own body, which thereby resulted in him becoming the Poison Dragon Slayer.

While hunting for Zeref with Jellal, Erik continued to keep his identity concealed with his Cobra ID papers. Upon learning of a large serpent dragon, Cobra decides to learn its powers. Chasing him was a Gourmet Hunter named Zongeh.

After the announcer calls his name
Cobra sprays poison, then his pet snake, Cubellios slinks in as the camera zooms, then Cobra says "Look, I am cocky, but I'm not a lonely dud, you flea bag."

Poison Dragon's Twin Fang (Neutral)
Erik moves his arms forward in a cross, forming a very large amount of poison in two massive waves shaped like fangs, which he uses to attack his opponents with great blunt force.

Poison Dragon's Roar (Side)
Cobra quickly gathers and releases poison from his mouth in the form of deadly, poisonous stream that, when it makes contact with the target, they will be poisoned for nine seconds.

Poison dragon's Fang Slice (Up)
Cobra jumps as Cubellios bites and attacks the target, launching him/her upwards.

Poison Dragon's Spiral Jaw (Down)
Cobra jumps in the air and, when he is upside down, gathers poison on his legs and kicks the opponent while rotating.

Poison Dragon's Scales (Hyper Smash)
Cobra swings his arm, generating a very large number of scale-shaped masses of poison, which are rapidly sent flying at the target in consecutive reprises.

Poison Dragon's Sharp Horn (Final Smash)
Cobra punches his target then releases a burst of poison at point-blank range, which causes poison damage and burns.
