History Characters / AzurLaneEagleUnionLightCruisersCL

* ProneToTears: Gives Spence a run for her money as the most scared Eagle Union ship. Given the events around her sinking, it's no wonder. [[note]] A torpedo from Japanese submarine I-26 caused a huge explosion and Junueau sunk within 20 seconds. The initial explosion killed all but 100 of her near 700 crew members. Because it was assumed NoOneCouldSurviveThat, those 100 survivors were left to fend for themselves for eight days before rescue arrived. By this point, only 10 men remained. With a total of 683 men dead, she holds the second highest death toll of an American ship during the war.[[/note]]

* ShipTease: To Lena, possibly to mirror increasing amount of ShipTease between Helena and Cleveland. It is downplayed on her end, coming off as purely friends.

* WearingAFlagOnYourHead: Has very patriotic socks, with red and white stripes at the top and a star-strewn field of blue below.

* Underboobs: Subtly visible through her translucent top.

** When the Commander engages her in a mock battle in ''Parallel Superimposition'', she turns out to have a knack for being TheStrategist, being able to direct a huge mass-produced ship fleet without fail while anticipating many of the Commander's moves; it took the Commander using himself as bait to win, predicting her luring his shipgirls away with a reserve fleet to let her [[FrontlineGeneral personally come out of her submarine flagship to take his flagship]]--but leaving it vulnerable to a pre-planned air bombing by Yorktown. Despite how close she came to winning, she [[GracefulLoser admits the Commander was her better.]]

[[folder: The ''Omaha''-class]]

!!Milwaukee (CL-5)

* CordonBleughChef: Her personal quest culminates in attempting to avert this. In part six, she can cook, but her food is neither appealing looking nor well-balanced in flavor -- [[SweetTooth she always puts too much sugar]].

[[folder: The ''Brooklyn''-class]]

* SexySecretary: Despite her looks, she's very serious about her position as secretary ship, a nod to being a diplomatic ship. This has caused her to be given glasses in various pieces of fanart to complete the look.
** However, if touched inappropriately, she will complain that a diplomat is different from a secretary.

-->'''Phoenix (Low HP)''': My hand is calling out to seize victory!

[[folder: The ''St. Louis''-class]]

* SupportPartyMember: Her Light of purification skill can debuff a number of enemy stats.

[[folder: The ''Atlanta''-class]]

* CoolBigSis: Tries to be one to the commander (emphasis on TRIES). She is more successful in being one to her little sisters, even giving her share of any mission rewards to them.

* CowardlyLion: In the Ashen Simulacrum event, despite her crying out of fear when faced with the Sirens, she refuses to back down from a fight against Purifier, and even manages to score the winning shots on her. This trait of hers becomes more pronounced with her retrofit.

* HeroicSacrifice: In a sense as she has a skill ("War Martyr") that heals everyone else upon her defeat in battle.
* LetsGetDangerous: In Ashen Simulacrum, not only does she hold the line against Purifier, ''she's the one who cripples and forces the Siren to retreat''.

* ButtMonkey: In the anime, she is this, with terrible luck at every turn.
** However, the [[ThrowTheDogABone anime has been a bit nice to her from Episode 4, and even gave her a genuine battle moment alongside Helena, who was also easily taken out in her first appearance]].

* SupportPartyMember: Her "Air Navigation warning" skill has a chance of boosting the anti-air stat of all eagle union ships in the fleet.

[[folder: The ''Oakland''-class]]
An updated version of the ''Atlanta''-class cruisers, with an even heavier focus on anti-air warfare.

* DCupDistress: One of her lines refers to "huge things" getting in the way of her dreams and her envy of the flat girls. Her Special Touch reiterates their getting in the way.

[[folder: The ''Cleveland''-class]]

* CoolBigSis: As far as her sisters are concerned, she's very much this. Montpelier takes it a bit further as seen below. If paired with Fletcher or [=Z1=], she will comment on them sharing this status with her for their classes[=/=]ship types.
** Downplayed with Biloxi, who respects her and views her as a sister, but not an older sister, with one of Biloxi's lines having her be confused over who the Commander is talking about when they mention an older sister.

-->Princeton... please be okay. If I had fought harder back then, things wouldn't have...

* SupportPartyMember: She helps reduce the main fleet ships's burn duration with her "Guardian of War" skill.
* UniformityException: The only one of the Cleveland sisters that isn't blonde. If you include the Independence-class, then she and Independence are the only non-blondes.
** With the addition of the blue-haired Biloxi, this is no longer the case, though she is still the only non-blonde Knight of the Sea, as Biloxi doesn't consider herself a member.

[[folder: The ''Seattle''-class]]

* TookALevelInCheerfulness: After her retrofit, she becomes less timid and more friendly toward the Commander, and is more willing to look for ways to help out. She's also more proactive about going out on missions, though still expresses relief at the end of battles. This is reinforced in her party skin, where she actually smile and is decently cheerful and friendly, enjoying her time on a date with the Commander.

The personification of the light cruiser San Diego. Easily the most popular of the three Atlanta sisters both in-game[[note]]as the game's resident TierInducedScrappy[=/=]LethalJokeCharacter[[/note]]and in real life[[note]]got 18 battle stars during World War II, second only to ''[[TheAce Enterprise]]'''.[[/note]].

* BareYourMidriff: Far more modestly than her sister Biloxi, Columbia wears a shirt short enough to expose a strip of skin and adds to her all-American motif.

* TookALevelInCheerfulness: After her retrofit, she becomes less timid and more friendly toward the Commander, and is more willing to look for ways to help out. She's also more proactive about going out on missions, though still expresses relief at the end of battles.

* ShoutOut: Not intentional, but the style of breast tattoo and her pre-image change look brings to mind the tragic "Emergence/Metamorphosis" (177013) eromanga by [=ShindoL=]. And while her artist has [[https://twitter.com/SilverRoid/status/1244974911908499463 decried]] the associations of her with that eromanga, it's worth pointing out that same creator also posted concept designs with one Marblehead looking like Saki before her [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EU_HXbGVAAIz1wu?format=jpg image change]].
