Freed Justine is a 20-year-old mage recognized as an S-Class Mage by Erza. He is a member of the Fairy Tail Guild, known for concealing his face most of the time. Laxus Dreyar refers to him as Freed the Dark. For half a year, Freed has been absent from the guild and hasn't met newer members like Lucy Heartfilia. During Fairy Tail's conflict with Phantom Lord Guild, he was in another town. As a part of Raijinshuu, a group serving Laxus, Freed holds the title of self-proclaimed captain. Alongside Mystogan and Gildarts, he is considered one of the "Mystery Men." His magic revolves around Enchantments.
Among the Raijinshuu, Freed appears to be the quietest. Despite his loyalty to Laxus, he shows concern for his former friends, questioning Laxus when instructed to kill other Fairy Tail members. His respect for Laxus leads him to follow orders, even if it means harming fellow guild members. When Mirajane confronts him about their friendship, Freed replies sadly, "we were once." After Laxus departs from Fairy Tail, Freed shaves his head; it regrows by chapter 165.
Freed's magic enables him to inscribe runes that can affect targets based on their content. His enchantments often inflict pain and suffering on opponents. This was first demonstrated during the Battle of Fairy Tail, where Freed's runes trapped guild members, forcing them to fight each other to escape. Contrary to Makarov's belief that Freed's magic required time to activate, Freed showed the ability to swiftly write characters with his sword, instantly triggering their effects.
