Warm, inviting, and bubbly are a second choice of words to describe the former youth. A young man with unwavering fidelity for his comrades and his coat of arms, integrity and trust are highly-regarded morals for himself. He has inherited the traditional standard of the military, where his wealthy upbringing no longer carries rancor from the ones who had not believed in him.

While Reese has mostly retained his casual demeanor towards his friends, he does dislike showings of laziness and disrespect for the military, and will not hesitate to make others aware of his anger. While they may have other plans for the future, he remains critical in his ability to preserve the bonds that tie his relationships together.

Reese has a knack for discovering new ideas, possessing a growing aptitude for knowledge. P

Regarded as a late-bloomer, training has allowed Reese to temper himself well, discovering a confidence unlike his superiors and peers had ever seen from the boy. Possessing a growing aptitude for knowledge, he has shown greater potential in tactical analysis and further improving his fundamental skills.

Reese Kestrel was the youngest of three children, and the only son to a wealthy family of trade proprietors; the Kestrel family resided in the safe confines of Stohess District within Wall Sina. Initially spoiled and living a childhood in luxury, his father had been raised under the principle of earning his own place in the world, as did his grandfather before. The young boy had only known his immediate family for the first years of his life before he was entrusted in the care of his uncle, who lived in the northern Utopia District of Wall Maria. Unfortunately, at the age of six, this would be the last time that he would see his immediate family, for the years to come.

Not much sooner, Reese and the family relocated to Trost District, where his uncle could better operate the trade routes tasked by his father. When his tenth birthday came, the youth volunteered to accompany his uncle and the other traders in their work, to which they happily obliged. Their activities all across each Wall and district allowed him to discover and befriend many other children, telling them about his travels and the sights he had been able to see.

Reese had been shaping himself up to meet his father in the near future, to prove to himself and his father that he was ready to inherit the family's name and responsibility. With three years of experience under his belt at a very young age, his notion had only needed several more years until it would come to fruition. However, this routinely visitation to Shiganshina District would be the last.

On that day, the pair that was the Colossal and Armored Titan would successfully breach Wall Maria, catching the entirety of humanity off guard. Reese was among the many lost souls amidst the feeding grounds of the invading titans, fighting against the tide of fleeing civilians in search of his uncle. This search ended in a failure as he was abruptly taken to safety by the butcher, his uncle presumably among the hundreds that were devoured during the nightmare.

With the death of Kled Kestrel, Reese and the displaced refugees were transported to the temporary sectors of residence within Wall Rose, though the boy was able to transfer himself and all of his friends to Trost District through his connections to avoid the desolate conditions that the refugee camps offered. He kept to his friends for the next two years, and while his aunt's family was devastated by the loss of Kled Kestrel, they more-than-happily welcomed Gabriel and Olivia with open arms.

Learning of his friends' desire to enlist in the military, Reese did not wish to be left behind, making a fatalistic decision to enlist alongside them. He had a slow start to the training process, but six months into the three years of training, the boy had potentially shown the highest ceiling of growth among all of the recruits.

Through many of the military's coarse trials and many more of his own errors, Reese stood proudly among his peers as he triumphed over each hurdle. He would go on to complete the training as the fifth overall ranking graduate of the 104th Training Corps, and intends to follow wherever his friends go.

A courageous soldier with a steadfast devotion to the preservation of humanity, Ovidius embodies the very definition of what it means to serve in the military. Loyal to his comrades and trustworthy in his arms, there is a rare passion in the young man, often blanketed by the casual demeanor that he interacts with. He is selfless to others, whether it be as an advisal to another or as a person to listen.

While others say that he is an inspiration for hope in their fear, Ovidius can be surprisingly reticent when it comes to speaking about other matters, often finding himself in deeper thoughts moreso than conversations. Regardless, should it be requested, he will assist another individual without question. A known critic for the portion of laziness within the military, the young man respects determination, to which he claims is his very own will to exist.

At times, Ovidius may come off as brazen and abrasive, though it is rare to see him genuinely upset, noting that it would only be a display of weakness and lower morale. He is not afraid to stand up for himself or others, possessing a tougher mental fortitude through his childhood and experiences in the military. This serious aspect of his personality is offset by a knack for jest, though it goes without saying that he constantly wages a war deep within his own self.

As a witness to perpetual tragedy and a survivor of several events and expeditions that claimed the lives of countless peers, Ovidius has seen many things that others have not, and has only used those experiences as a stepping stone to act as the leader that others need when he is granted that role, though even the toughest shell can crack under the exposure of immense pressure.

A modest background is everything that Ovidius Lohr would have hoped for, and it was what he had received, for the most part. Hailing from a small town only several miles away from Karanes District, his family descended from those who had lived off of the natural land; they would be the first of the line to step foot into ordinary civilization, and claim it as their permanent residence.

Ovidius was a middle son to the fairly healthy family; a sibling to two younger brothers, an older brother, and an older sister. Their father was a fiend for the idea of possessing wealth, wishing to elevate their standing in society from the lowest point. This caused a rift to occur within the family, and while the siblings had always been close, it was his older sister, Nanna, than he had cherished the most, further beyond the rest.

His father sought to wed Nanna off to a higher-class family residing within the innermost walls, and Ovidius found himself separated from his older sister when she adamantly refused, turning her back on their father and running away from the family. With this 'rebellious' display, their father grew furious, frequently subjecting their family through stages of abuse whenever his ideology was neglected or criticized. It was Ovidius who would protect his mother and his brothers from this abuse, exposing the six-year old to the most pain.

It took several years for his mother to gather enough courage and funds to remove themselves from his father's sphere of influence, and after speaking with Ovidius and his younger brothers, they would leave for a new life shortly after. While they drifted from town to town throughout this year, they would eventually settle in Trost District. The nine-year old would come to discover that Nanna had enlisted in the military, seeing his older sister in a Garrison uniform when she was stationed in Trost. They were only able to speak for a few moments before she returned to her post, and later on, before she left to be stationed elsewhere.

While it was not the most glamorous of goals as perceived by his mother, Ovidius stated his intention of enlisting in the military in the footsteps of his older sister, wishing to find and speak to Nanna once again. His friends and the other adults called him insane, but the boy's resolve was set and clear, and after ensuring that he was physically able for the task, he enlisted at the age requirement of twelve alongside two friends, Bixon and Asher.

Ovidius adjusted quickly to the harsh training regiment, and while he was initially touted solely for his strength and skill with the gear, the instructor noted a growing leadership quality that naturally sprung during his last year of training. This propelled the fifteen-year old into the top ten, graduating from the 102nd Training Corps in Year 845 as the second-overall ranking trainee. Bixon and Asher held the rankings of eighth and tenth overall, respectively.

There were many officers from each military branch that sought Ovidius for the potential that he displayed, though his primary goal of finding his sister would lead to their major disappointment, as he and his two friends decided to join the Garrison. He was stationed primarily along the districts of Wall Maria, and while he had finally reunited with his older sister in Shiganshina, it was a bittersweet reunion at best, for the Colossal Titan was soon to come on that day.

Only two months into his career with the Garrison, and Ovidius was a witness to the Colossal Titan successfully breaching Wall Maria, enacting a living hell upon Shiganshina District. With the military caught completely off guard, and with no true plan drafted for this type of situation, the Garrison were in complete disarray as the overwhelming number of titans encroached upon their ranks. He had no knowledge of where his sister had gone to, and with the titans' line quickly pushing their forces to the inner wall, Ovidius led a daring command to hold the titans back, in an effort to give the civilians enough time to evacuate.

It was needless to say that Ovidius' efforts were in vain, as the select few that followed him were devoured, and only a very narrow escape allowed him to survive the entire ordeal, claiming one of the few remaining horses at the stables and retreating towards Wall Rose. Only at the barracks of Trost, did he finally break down under the extreme fear and pain, seeing that Nanna was on the list of the deceased. Having not seen how his sister had died, he began to suffer from nightmares of all the different scenarios, even through the consolation of his two friends who had survived.

These nightmares would worsen as Ovidius was among the 250,000 soldiers to be sent on a suicidal operation to reclaim Wall Maria, which saw the deaths of nearly the entire force, of which included Bixon and Asher, who had died in his own arms. This failure of command, and the government's neglect for the lives of the soldiers, resulted in the young man's disillusion with the military. It had only been his first year, and he had already witnessed atrocities of the largest scale.

Knowing of the Survey Corps' lack of corruption and true regard for its soldiers, Ovidius transferred to the branch in the same year, ignoring the warnings from his advisers in the Garrison. He began to wear the Survey Corps' colors with pride, and since then, he has grown into one of its core members, a veteran of countless expeditions beyond the wall.

Warm, inviting, and bubbly are only few words to describe the jovial character that Reese embodies. The young boy defeats the traditional look and swindling nature of a merchant, holding honesty and trust as crucial morals for his everyday life. His occupation had dramatically improved his ability to speak with others, and while it is easy to deduce from his speech alone that he was of a wealthy upbringing, he does a great job in confusing the ordinary person with his kindness.

Reese is not one to hold grudges or outright dislike other people, but it does not mean that he would allow himself or others to be treated with disdain. While he is fairly patient with people, first impressions mean everything for the boy, and he generally holds a consistent opinion of a person for the rest of their relationship. His youth does allow for a natural shyness to sink into his tone more often than desired, and with a life of relative safety, he is yet to witness the injustice of the people and the menace that is the Titans for himself.

Hello there, I'm Aiyanna! ~

I don't post within introductory threads often, or rather, at all,, but..

Welcome to the Guild! Always nice to have newcomers on board! I'm sure you'll be happy to find that a lot of others share the same favorite genres / hobbies, as well. For myself, I love fantasy, and gaming is something I do a little too much. I'm into anime but I swear I'm not a weeb

If you've got any questions, don't hesitate to ask myself/others around the forum!

Attack on Titan: Somnium

ditto

Attack on Titan: 105th Cadets

Well, after the colossal titan's attack on Shinganshina, there will be a 2 year time skip that'll put our characters in training. That gives those that start at 10 years of age the exact time skip to join the Training Corps.

@QT

Ninja replied above! :p

Thanks for the clarification!
I'll start making my character(s)! wondering who will be killed off first

Attack on Titan: 105th Cadets

I'm thinking he meant 10-15 when the titans attack/the intro post, because after the Titan attack like in the show I'd like to skip over to them in their training.

@wolverbells

Yeah, it was just a suggestion, since I wasn't sure if we were going to only skip briefly in the same year of the breach or a few years after the breach. My post catered to if the situation was that our characters would be enlisting in the military in the same year.

Edit: Happy Mother's Day wherever you are! :o

Attack on Titan: 105th Cadets

Good explanation of the stuff.

From my understanding, the age required to enlist in the Trainee Corps is twelve years old; while the exact age itself wasn't specifically stated, I've theorized it from the following:

Eren's age in Year 850 is listed as fifteen.
The breach occurred in Year 845, making Eren ten years old when it happened.
He did not meet the age requirement at the time, so he had to wait a few years.
The 104th Training Corps did not come to be until Year 847, and that group graduated in Year 850.

I think that should mean our characters should be between the ages of twelve and fifteen / any upper limit instead of 10-15, so that there isn't any conflict with the designated age requirement. Like it'd be weird if we had a 10 year old character who would technically have to wait two more years in order to join the next Trainee Corps.

Attack on Titan: 105th Cadets

From my understanding, it's kind of like a report card for your character in those various traits after training. I don't think it matters way too much, since I (would hope) don't think the roleplay would rely on statistical percentages and etc in killing titans and whatnot, just things like if your character isn't a killing machine like Mikasa, then they shouldn't be able to score like 10 Titan kills by themselves in one battle.
