[OOC] Attack on Titan: Somnium

[Carlyle]

@Jinxer Here you go. We also need to pick who the lucky cadet that gets separated from the rest of the group to be put in the rear guard, which will probably be Emil or Tanner (more likely Tanner if we base it off the ranking that Frost made, and the fact that Emil is a criminal and has a tendency to disappear when shit hits the fan).

[Jinxer]

I have the teams already decided, I'll reveal them when we get there.

We won't have one cadet being pulled back with the others as Mikasa is in the show, from here on it will be a little different.

[Jeep Wrangler]

If possible I'd love to have Emil be with Grant!

@FrostedCaramel

Why is this? What have I done?I'm

Also...You have Lauren, wanting to get out alive with confidence. You have Grant, who wants to fight back and assist in every way but will easily stand down if he has to with logic...

And then there's Gabriel who's shitting himself and wants to run.

And then there's Gabriel who's shitting himself and wants to run.

@LetMeDoStuff

But yeah, the only people that are going to die are the nameless cadets that Jinx gave us. I'll probably throw up some character sheets for them in a moment--at least those Gabriel and Tanner were paired with.

@Poi

I'll make some Unamed Soldiers, such as the one on the mountain, though named for a single post emphasising the failure of the Battle of Trost. It'll likely be around the time that if the HQ gets breached, which I presume it will be.

Question, what actual characters are from the Canon story? I presume none, but do we have separate names for the occupants of the Colossal Titan and etc?

[Carlyle]

@LetMeDoStuff Well, you guys have Jay. Perhaps you along with Bells and Sol could make a character sheet for him. The only reason why I'm making character sheets for my group is so that Volde and I don't have to think up names and personalities on the fly.

[Jinxer]

I'll be making a proper sheet for Jay so don't worry about that for now.

I'll also begin on some longer-lasting (possibly) cadet/Scouts sheets as well, especially the commanders etc.

@Jinxer

I have one of the Captains' sheets in the making in the form of an older Brother to Mateo, as referenced in my last post. Is this acceptable?

[Carlyle]

@Wolverbells@Solace@Jinxer

When one of you have time, could you review these sheets? These are the cadets for Gabriel and Tanner's squad.

EDIT: Both have been approved by Bells.

Innocent, almost to the point of endearing, Mary is a cadet not suited for a military life. While she went through the struggles of basic training, Mary is relatively fresh-faced in concerns with the horrors of the world she lives in. Despite this, Mary doesn't let herself feel down and wallow in despair. Mary works well in teams, and attempts to be there for her friends or comrades in times of need or struggles. Holding great respect for those who can stand up and take the role of a leader, Mary tries to the best of her ability to follow any order she is given to a T.

Mary Gardner was born sixteen years ago as the fifth child to the Gardner family. A family with large fields to tend to within Wall Rose, Mary's childhood was mostly helping her parents grow crops and livestock for the good of humanity, but her older siblings rarely had needed her help. As a result, Mary was usually seen playing with the ponies and other animals, or in rarer cases, sneaking away with a few apples or other delicacies to the nearby lake where she watched geese swim around. Her father often scolded Mary for her childish behavior, but her mother was always waiting for him to leave before handing Mary a pastry or a sweet with a smile. Some of it would often be fed to the animals, but Mary usually kept the sweets to herself--her sweet tooth certainly enjoying the treats.

By the time Mary had experienced her eleventh winter, the disaster at Shiganshina had happened. Thousands of refugees were flooding in, straining the family's ability to produce food. Resources were scarce to the point that even the Gardners were struggling, and soon her parents had to make a decision they did not wish to make. Being forced to lighten the load, her parents sent Mary away to become a cadet and join the military, where she might have some actual food rather than what they could scrounge up. It was a decision Mary lamented, but she preserved through the training and was soon ready to graduate. Or so Mary believed, when the Colossal Titan had come to threaten humanity's future once more.

Narcissistic like most of Wall Sina's inhabitants, Jakob, in simple terms, is a pain in the ass. As he happens to be overly confident of himself, Jakob is more than willing to challenge anyone's opinion or belief on any matter. Sometimes this has turned out to be a simple verbal altercation, but Jakob has exchanged fists in the past to get his point across. While Jakob is skilled with the gear, most cadets and military personnel wish that a Titan would simply eat him due to the cadet being largely a nuisance. To those that would think such thoughts, Jakob casts them aside as if they were weaker than him during his loud boasts.

Jakob Henschel had been born as the only child to the Henschels, a rich family with a militaristic background. Residing deep within the walls, Jakob had everything in life and no fears, often boasting that he could take on ten Titans at once despite living so far from them and never seeing a Titan in person. Growing up, Jakob had a small clique of companions, where they would often showcase their strength and live as denizens of Wall Sina have done for years. The Military Police had often been involved because of incidents his clique caused, but most didn't dare to touch Jakob because of his family's status. Those that did were often met with fists, and their judgement challenged by people swayed by a large sum of money.

While Jakob had soon reached his twelfth birthday, his parents held him back to ensure Jakob's training would be perfect. However, by Jakob's thirteenth winter, Shiganshina exploded with Titans, falling as a result. His parents had been so arrogant that they held Jakob even further back to ensure his training was in good hands, going as far to call everyone in Shiganshina cowards. By the time Jakob had been allowed to join the rest of the cadets, he was a well-versed trainee, but his boastfulness had made all the other cadets not want anything to do with him. This lack of teamwork and respect for his comrades had shown on the day his graduation came, and Jakob failed to place anywhere on the top ten. Angry, Jakob was ready to contest the rulings, but the Colossal Titan had other plans for the cadet, as its appearance had with all of them.

Lauchlan Anders

The image is really large I'm sorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Appearance

Color= 007236

Name: Lauchlan Anders

Nickname: Loch

Age: 17

Branch of Service: 104th Training Corps

Years of Service: Year 847 - Present

---

Height: 180cm

Weight: 76 kg

Hair Color: Blonde

Eye Color: Green

Complexion: Pale

Body Composition: Lanky

---

Short Bio:
Lauchlan was born to the safety of Wall Rose to his Parents Matthew and Anne Anders. Loch grew up a rather carefree life, his safety and well being always provided for him by his families work or the walls that surrounded him until Wall Maria fell. As the refugees began to flood in, a young Lauchlan would witness exactly what it was to live under the threat of the Titans as people fought over things as simple as food and clean water at the wells. After just a year of living in the new reality that the fall of the walls brought, Loch found himself eager to join the military and return things to what they once were.

Loch has, since his new resolve appeared, joined the military and managed to graduate from the Cadet Corps placing in the top 25 cadets of his class although not high enough to be in the top 10. He is currently at a crossroads in his life, deciding whether he truly wants to join the Survey Corps to fight for what he originally joined the military for or if he will opt for the relative safety of the Garrison.

Personality:
Carefree describes Lauchlan well. Most things tend to not bother the boy, and as such he is normally looked to in order to ease situations with comedy or lighthearted comments. Known by his other Cadets as a jokester and a bit of an air head, Loch has gained himself the reputation of the Class clown, although with a more endearing view on the position. Liked by all, and know by even more, Loch has no trouble with people he doesn't know and even enjoys getting to know new people.

The two other cadets for the Emil/Lauren team.

Russell Heisner

Russell Heisner

Nickname: 'Rusty'
Age: 19
Height: 6' 3"
Weight: 230 lbs

Short Bio: Heralding from the northern regions within Wall Maria, Russell and his family had plenty of time to evacuate after the breach of Maria. Like many from the largely farming communities from which they originated they sound found that their skills were in large surplus. Most of the refugees were put into the fields for manual labour, regardless of skill or knowledge and there was no space for a family who had lost everything to rebuild their life on a new farmstead.

His parents were both sent out to 'take back Maria', the disastrous expedition that's only success was to allow those who remained to have a decent meal once a day. Left with his sister, only a year younger than himself, and no work to support them, Russell enrolled in the cadets to earn a steady pay check of which all he sent back to his sister, Margaret. He always had a tough body from years working in the fields and it served him well in the hand to hand combat training and the endurance exercises but he struggled with the gear to begin with and even now is a little slow in its use even if, technically at least, he's an accomplished user of the device now.

Personality: No-nonsense, serious and desperate to live but not a coward - he just hasn't given up yet.

Stats
• Physical Strength: 18
• Speed: 5
• Teamwork: 10
• Leadership: 5
• Skill (gear): 12

Helen Weissman

Helen Weissman

Nickname: None.
Age: 15
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 115 lbs

Short Bio: From Orvud District and a relatively wealthy family, Helen is an unusual specimen in the cadets. Her family are merchants but her father, the current head of the family company, served in the Military Police from where he made his connections (and dubiously makes a great deal of his business) decreed that all of his offspring should have some experience of a soldier's life. This was not through any sense of duty, he merely felt that the harsh training would instil some backbone into his children who enjoyed a very plush an easy life, on the back of his success.

Helen hated the cadets. She had never had to work hard in her life, especially not physically, but she worked hard and refused to admit defeat, eventually surviving the process of turning her into a soldier. Slight of build but fast and quick-witted, she excelled in obstacle courses and the use of the gear although she struggled with complex manoeuvres and has no strength to speak of.

Personality: Stubborn when her back is against the wall but otherwise easygoing to the point of being lazy. Doesn't like to get her hands, or any part of her for that matter, dirty, if she can help it.

Stats
• Physical Strength: 4
• Speed: 20
• Teamwork: 8
• Leadership: 5
• Skill (gear): 13

CS for Jay, working on some other more permanent NPCs to flesh the ranks out as well.

Jayden Weber

Jayden Weber

Nickname: Jay
Age: 18
Height: 5' 11"
Weight: 180 lbs

Short Bio: Jay speaks little of his life before the cadets and is often prickly when pressed. The little he has revealed is of his parents, weavers working in Shiganshina in the shadow of Wall Maria, who were killed in the town's fall. Their house was near the gate which the Colossal Titan breached and so there was no chance for them to escape, the initial blast or the ensuing Titan attack ending their lives. Jay escaped, having been away from home at the time and escaped the disaster.

He spent the following years as a cutpurse and a thug, travelling around various towns within Wall Rose before being picked up by a recruiter drumming up support for the cadets, enticed as he was by the promise of a steady pay cheque.

Personality: Confrontational and blunt, Jay makes few friends. He's loyal to those around him but does not work well in a team and comes across as rude and ready for a scrap.

Stats
• Physical Strength: 15
• Speed: 10
• Teamwork: 5
• Leadership: 5
• Skill (gear): 15

Gregory Findlay

Gregory Findlay

Nickname: Greg
Age: 17
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 150 lbs

Short Bio: Greg is a fairly effeminate young lad, with blond hair a little longer than most male styles and with angular cheekbones giving him a slightly feminine appearance. As a result he was often bullied and sought out protectors rather than friends although they often came in the same form. Away from Shiganshina when the attack happened, Greg lost his aunt whom he had been staying with but had enough inheritance to manage for a time without too much struggle. He joined the cadets since he had few other skills he could use and soon found he had some ability with the Gear.

During the mountain hike he twisted his ankle and was unable to escape the avalanche. Lauren's intervention saved his life, her injury a direct result of his own and he still feels that he is in her debt.

Personality: An eternal optimist and desperate to befriend everyone around him, Greg is a gentle person with little to no rage or anger within him. He does not hate Titans but choose to fight because of the threat they pose to others.

Stats
• Physical Strength: 10
• Speed: 15
• Teamwork: 10
• Leadership: 0
• Skill (gear): 15

Fleur Seymour

Fleur Seymour

Nickname: None
Age: 19
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 160 lbs

Short Bio: Fleur is the fourth female child of a well to do family from the capital. Due to the significant length of the line of succession she was expected to inherit nothing and so needed to find a career for herself. The usual solution for young men and women in her position was to push them into the cadets and then use connections to find them a place within the Military Police, regardless of their end of training rankings thanks to family connections.

Fleur went as expected and joined the cadets but found the training, the will to fight of those around them and the joy of being something actually important of more interest than the political games of the rich families in the capital. Spurning her parents' attempts to move her into the Military Police, she graduated and plans to join one of the other divisions on her own merit.

Personality: Determined to make something of herself and prove she isn't just another girl from a rich family, Fleur is focused on her goal of advancing and will fight as hard as any to survive. Although the hatred her fellows bear towards the Titans is not her own she has taken the emotion to heart and has assumed their dreams to retake Wall Maria.

Stats
• Physical Strength: 10
• Speed: 8
• Teamwork: 10
• Leadership: 7

Not my best post, but I posted.

[Jinxer]

Just realised I haven't said where you're deploying to.

Lauren and Emil - leftish flank.
Tanner, Gabriel - centre (ish)
Jade, Reese, Grant and Jay - rightish flank

[Jeep Wrangler]

I'll work on a post now, though I'm very badly fatigued so my actual product will not be of any high standards.

SYKE
You thought Gabriel was going to keep formation? Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

[Jeep Wrangler]

I'm going to post after seeing how @Solace posts, just so I don't cause complications for him.

[Carlyle]

I'll get to a post soon, but I just wanted to post this cover.

[Jeep Wrangler]

I'm really sorry for holding a few people up on my post. Life took another extremely bad turn, which I can explain in Discord.

Also, question, apart from that one Titan we have, what else do I need to know before I post?

[Jinxer]

@LetMeDoStuff

Flares have just been sent up ordering a retreat towards HQ but that's very recent.

The left flank is gone and the Titans are penetrating the city now.
