She can be described as someone who can be your best friend or worst enemy, she also takes immense pride in being a member of the Fairy Tail Guild and will seek justice or punish anyone who disrespects or harms any of her guild mates and friends. Erza is quite brave in the face of danger and is almost always the first of her guild mates to take action.

Erza is also slightly perverted having read homosexual novels before and is a fan Jiraiya's books.
History (Fairy Tail Manga)[]
Erza was conceived around 400 years ago by Irene, the Queen of Dragnof, and the General Rung from a foreign country. However, as a side effect, her mother having learned Dragon Slayer Magic soon became a dragon and went rampage, killing her husband and destroying her country, who had turned against her.
She was kept from growing in Irene's womb by magical means. She remained unborn during Irene's several-hundred-year-long physical stint as a Dragon, and was finally born after her mother regained her human shape courtesy of Zeref Dragneel.
Her mother though still initially expressed her lack of care at the fact that she was still physiologically a dragon but was eventually struck with insanity when the physical sensations and consequences of being a dragon carried over. Sad, Irene stated that she only wanted to give birth to her child as a human, but soon became deluded with the idea that if she could enchant herself unto her unborn child and give birth, she would have a human body again. Irene tried and failed, she soon abandoned Erza due her fear that she would someday hurt her due her growing insanity. She left her as a baby on the doorstep of an orphanage at Rosemary Village.
Erza when she was a slave
Years later Erza's village was attacked by Cultists who followed Zeref. Erza managed to save a fellow villager, Kagura Mikazuchi, by hiding her in a crate. However, sadly she was not so lucky and was soon captured and taken to the Tower of Heaven as a slave in a large tower being built by the cult in order to resurrect Zeref off the coast of Caelum. She was imprisoned together with several other slaves, most of them were children from other parts of Ishgar. She eventfully made friends with Jellal Fernandes, Millianna, Simon, Wally Buchanan, and Shô.
While they were asking each other for their names, she said that her name was just "Erza," so Jellal decided to give her the surname "Scarlet" after her scarlet hair so they would never forget it. Erza also bonded with a fellow slave and an elderly wizard from the Fairy Tail Guild.
One day in X776, Shô came up with a plan for the eleven-year-old Erza and all their friends to escape from the tower. They were unfortunately caught by the guards, who decided to send the escape's mastermind to the tower's disciplinary chamber, while the rest would be deprived of food for three days. Seeing how fearful Shô was, Erza prepared to take the blame herself, but Jellal announced himself as the mastermind instead. However, the guards reasoned that Erza was the one responsible and sent her to the disciplinary chamber, where she was tortured to the brink of death and lost her right eye. Jellal rescued her but was captured soon after. Finally fed up with their torment, Erza staged a revolt against their captors so they could escape and save Jellal.
Erza uses her magic for the first time.
The revolt appeared to be successful at its inception until the tower's wizards arrived to suppress the slaves, causing most of the other slaves to retreat. During the attack, Erza watched in horror as her friend Simon's lower jaw was blasted off by a magical attack, while Rob sacrificed himself to defend Erza from another Mage's attack. In her rage, Erza's latent Magic Power was activated for the first time, and she used it to turn all of the discarded weapons and tools around her against the guards, finishing the revolt.
Erza as a child
As the other slaves boarded ships meant to ensure their freedom, she reunited with Jellal, but discovered that he had changed; the kind and compassionate boy she knew him to be was suddenly twisted and violent, using Magic to slaughter the defenseless guards around them. Jellal had been possessed by what he claimed to be the spirit of Zeref (When it was actually the work of a younger Ultear Milkovich under Hades' orders) and decided that the only way for them to attain true freedom was to complete the Tower of Heaven and revive Zeref. Erza refused to help him, prompting Jellal to cast her out of the tower by herself, only letting her live because she helped take care of all the guards who would have opposed him. Before letting her escape, Jellal told Erza to keep the Tower of Heaven a secret from the government, as well as to never return to the tower, threatening to destroy the tower and kill everyone in it, including their friends, if she disobeyed.
After washing up on the shores of Fiore, Erza made her way to and joined the Fairy Tail Guild. She habitually began to wear armor and she at first acted distant from the other members. After Gray, who tried picking fights with the reclusive Erza, saw her crying by herself and questioned her about it as a result she began to open up to her guildmates more. Around this time, Fairy Tail's master Makarov Dreyar brought Erza to see Porlyusica, who gave her an artificial eye to replace the one she lost. With her eye healed Erza shed tears of joy, which only came out of her real, left eye, though Erza didn't mind as she said she had already shed half of her tears.
Erza then spent the rest of her childhood training and hanging out with Gray and Natsu who she saw as siblings. She also had a fierce rivalry with Mirajane Strauss. When she was 15 years old Erza took the S-Class Trials and was promoted to an S-Class Wizard becoming the youngest known one in recorded history.
A year before meeting Lucy Heartfillia she encountered a girl in under the alias of Mulan Rouge (Who later be known as Bisca Connell) posing as a wizard from Fairy Tail. Outraged by the thought, the red-headed wizard stormed into the dessert shop and confronted the phony, thrusting a large blade through the table where she was lounging. Bisca responded by snatching her panties and fleeing the scene, only to be punched through a wall and into the pool hall by the rampaging Erza. She attempted to retaliate against her attacker with a series of gunshots, only for Erza to deflect them with a few swings of her sword. Bisca accepted defeat and begged for mercy on the grounds that she was only trying to help her pet mouse Sunny and buy food, but was met with another beating from Erza, who refused to allow anyone to disgrace the name of her guild. The S-Class Wizard seemingly accepted Bisca's apology before inviting her to join Fairy Tail if she needed a legitimate way to find work. As she watched Erza leave the scene, Bisca asked the redhead for her name, and, upon hearing it, concluded that Erza was a truly cool person. After casting aside the alias of Mulan Rouge, Bisca joined Fairy Tail.
About a year or so later, Erza was on mission which the extermination of a monster that didn't survive its encounter with her. As thanks the locals decorated one of the monster's claws for her and gave as trophy. On her way home she stops by a local bar where she heard that the Dark Guild Eisenwald was planning something big.
After returning to the Guild she took the opportunity to point out the faults in her guild mates. She then got down to business and asked Natsu and Gray to accompany her on mission.
The next day at the train station, she meets up with them including Lucy who agreed to come along in case Natsu and Gray start fighting.
On the train to Onibus she explains the contents of the mission to them. Minus Natsu who she knocked out to ease his motion sickness. They are so caught up with their discussion that they accidentally leave Natsu on the train, prompting Erza to temporarily stop the train via its emergency stop signal and chase after him on a borrowed Magic Vehicle.
Erza brutalizes Esienwald
After catching up with Natsu, they find out Kageyama a member of Eisenwald. After Erza scolds Natsu for not stopping him, he says he saw him holding a skull shaped flute. Which Lucy recognizes as the power of the dark magic Lullaby that kills anyone who listens to its music.
After that they all start rushing to nearby city of Oshibana, where they find Eisenwald waiting for them inside the local train station. Before escaping with the Lullaby, Erigor claims to use the Lullaby to kill everyone in the city. She sends Natsu and Grayy after while she and Lucy handle the Eisenwald members. In complete one-sided battle defeats majority of them single handily.
After the fight she sends Lucy after the others. Having used majority of her magic power in the fight and using the Magic Vehicle at full speed she starts to feel a little exhausted. she goes outside to evacuate the citizens gathered around the station. However, Erigor reappears and casts a Wind Wall around the station, trapping Erza inside.
Afterwards she interrogates the defeated Esianwald members and realizes that Eisenwald's true target is Clover Town, where Makarov and the other guild masters have gathered. Remembering Kageyama's power to dispel Magic, she and Gray find Kageyama after he is defeated by Natsu and demands that he lift the Wind Wall, but he is stabbed in the back by fellow Eisenwald member Karacka to keep him quiet.
As luck would Lucy had just received a new celestial spirit key from Happy by name of Virgo the Maiden who she summons to burrow under the ground to bypass the wind wall. Natsu brings Kageyama, not wanting him to die.
Natsu sets out to fight Erigor while Erza and the others chase after him on another Magic Four-Wheeler with Kageyama in tow.

Naruto has shown some perverted tendencies towards Erza, sometimes leering at her in her many revealing armors and yelling at Ichigo for not appreciating her sexy appearance.

Artificial Eye: Erza lost her right eye after she was punished from trying to escape the Tower of Heaven as a child. When she did escape and eventually joined the Fairy Tail guild her right eye was replaced by Porlyusica, who created an Artificial Eye for her the only difference is that she can't cry through it but because of the fact that it is not her real eye, she is resistant and possibly immune to Illusions and visual Magic.
Immense Strength: In stark contrast with her slim and womanly figure, Erza possesses a very large amount of physical strength, having been repeatedly shown capable of lifting and dragging around objects many times her own size and weight, most prominently due to her habit of carrying around vast amounts of luggage. She was also able to send Midnight flying against a wall, several meters away from both of them, with a flick of her wrist. In addition, her sword slashes possess so much force behind them that they are able to slice through metal using only the air pressure from the swings.
Immense Durability: Erza has also proven herself to have a vast amount of physical durability: with the aid of her Adamantine Armor, she was able to take the brunt of the Magical Convergent Cannon: Jupiter on herself, and then go on to easily defeat Aria, an S-Class Wizard, and stand up against Jose Porla, the Phantom Lord Guild Master and a member of the Ten Wizard Saints, after receiving only a very brief amount of time for rest. While clad in her Heaven's Wheel Armor, she was capable of taking on the counter effect of 200 Lacrima orbs from Laxus' Thunder Palace even though the effect of one of the orbs is enough to endanger someone's life. and she was also able to survive the highly damaging Terra Clamare twice, and still manage to continue to fight and defeat Azuma. When Ultear Milkovich used her Arc of Time to open up Erza's Second Origin, Erza showed no signs of being bothered at all, unlike her teammates, including Gray Fullbuster, Natsu Dragneel, and Juvia Lockser, who couldn't walk and writhed around on the floor in pain. In addition, during the third day of the Grand Magic Games of X791, Erza was able to fight and defeat 100 powerful monsters, including one which was said to be so powerful that even a Ten Wizard Saint might not be able to defeat it. Despite being heavily injured and bruised, she left the fight without showing any signs of fatigue, something which garnered her praise from hundreds of people, including quite a few powerful wizards. Erza was also able to withstand Minerva's extremely destructive Yagdo Rigora spell with only slight damage. Erza has great amount of durability having survived feats and pain that most wizards cannot. She survived tremendous amounts of torture from Kyôka's Sensation curse which makes the body more sensitive to attacks she was also able to still fight after having all five her senses temporally stolen from her during their battle, she and she was able survive explosions from Azuma's Great Tree Arc.
Immense Reflexes: Erza possesses extremely sharp reflexes, and a high degree agility and speed. Despite her being severely battle worn, she was able to dodge a blast from Jose Porla while balancing herself on one hand. She was also able to skillfully and acrobatically dodge a barrage of Darkness Magic Spells from Jellal Fernandes, and when he knocked her through the walls of the Tower of Heaven, she launched herself off of a few small falling rocks back into the tower with ease. When Evergreen shot a few rays at her as a surprise attack, Erza easily dodged the rays with a side jump.
