Appearance
Touka is a small Exceed with white fur and light blue stripes, with pink ears and blue eyes, She also has two whiskers on each side of her face. Her outfit is a smaller and simplified version of what she wears as a human, where the ribbons are tied at the sides of her gold headdress.[2]
While possessed by Faris and with the use of Transformation Magic, Touka gains access to the latter's human form which is a slim, young-looking woman of average height with green eyes and prominent dark eyebrows. The ends of her hair are sausage curled, bundled into four thick strands in the back and two thick strands in the front. She dons a corset over a layered dress, as well as dark-colored stockings. Touka wears many dark green ribbons, including two in her hair and one around the frilled neckline of her dress containing a stone in the middle. She also wears a gold headdress with a decorative rose design and a small blue jewel. Her guild mark is located on the back of her right hand.[3][4][5] Additionally, while in her human form, Touka retains her striped tail, which she hides under her dress.[6]
Personality

Touka portrays herself as a friendly, upbeat girl who was eager to join Fairy Tail, mainly so that she could meet "Natsu". She has been a self-proclaimed fan of "Natsu" and is utterly infatuated with him, to the point of exaggerating how she met him. She is very similar to Juvia in this regard, which is frequently acknowledged by others.[7] Ironically, she and Juvia would argue over their devotion to their respective crushes, at which point Touka becomes sharp-tongued and somewhat irritative towards the Water Mage, who she enjoys teasing.[8] She is somewhat strong-willed, having been able to overcome Faris in order to prevent her from harming Jellal.[9]
History

After the Fairy Tail Guild was disbanded in X791, Touka was caught by bandits and trapped inside a barrel along with other stolen luggage. She was rescued by Natsu Dragneel and Happy, who were on a job to retrieve the luggage, unaware of her presence; due to a string of misunderstandings, Touka believed Happy came to her rescue riding on the back of a Dragon—rather than carrying Natsu into battle in reality—and confused Natsu's name as his.[10] Since then, Touka fell in love with "Natsu" and resolved to join Fairy Tail to be with him.[3] At some point she was possessed by Faris.[11]
Synopsis
Water Dragon God arc

Touka, alongside two other Mages, is introduced by Max as a new member of Fairy Tail after having previously passed a combat proficiency exam against Jet and Droy. Although her companions are frightened away by Laxus, Touka remains, desiring to be in Natsu's guild. When questioned about her relationship with the Dragon Slayer, Touka expresses obsessive romantic feelings towards him, revealing that Natsu had rescued her from thieves during the guild's one year disbandment. Inquiring in regards to his whereabouts, Touka is informed by Makarov that Natsu had embarked on a 100 year quest, much to her surprise.[12]

Later, Touka watches in annoyance as Juvia complains over Gray's departure, suggesting that her guildmate should have more faith in her “beloved” as she does in Natsu. This subsequently sparks a rivalry between the two. In the ensuing argument, Touka mentions the cultist, Briar, in an attempt to irritate Juvia, knowing that the Avatar Mage had formerly been attracted to Gray.[13] Touka is later seen talking with Mirajane and Lisanna as the former questions her abilities. Touka responds that she wields water-based Magic, expressing disappointment at the fact that she and Juvia utilize similar powers. In the midst of the conversation, Touka suddenly exposes a striped tail from underneath her dress, which is observed and pointed out by a shocked Gajeel and Juvia.[14] Touka's tail seemingly disappears soon afterward, and she casually brushes off the duo's comments.[15]

Outside the guild, Touka roams Magnolia, stopping by Natsu and Happy's house and revealing that she has moved next door to Lucy.[16] She later walks the streets through a downpour, during which she is approached by Jellal, who addresses her as the White Wizard.[17] Touka fails to convince Jellal of her innocence, despite denying his accusations of her connection to Rebellious, as well as involvement in the theft of several wizards' Magic. She is later defended by Laxus and watches him confront the Crime Sorcière Mage.[18] Following the encounter with Jellal, Touka expresses gratitude towards Laxus but is warned strictly by the latter that he won't protect her if she withholds potentially dangerous information from the guild.[19]

Touka emerges from her body to stop Faris from stealing Jellal's Magic and begs him to flee. Gajeel then appears behind Touka and knocks her unconscious, binding her with iron cuffs.[20] Touka later awakens in the guildhall, where she is further questioned by Jellal and the Fairy Tail Mages. She admits to having joined the guild with the purpose of having their Enchantress separate Faris from her body. After revealing her purpose, Faris however berates Touka before taking control of her body as she breaks free from the iron cuffs and dealt with Jellal and the Fairy Tail Mages.[21]
