* BigScrewedUpFamily: They refer to each other as siblings (though the Founder goes by Father) and consider Ymir their mother. But they all have issues with atleast one of the other and a long history of grudges and disagreements. The Attack Titan is considered an outcast, he and Armor have a rivalry, Beast is greatly disliked for his cruelty, Cart is an outcast for their nihilism, and they consider the Founder a neglectful parent. Also, the wills besides Attack all left Ymir in the Paths assuming she was fine with her “job” only to realize she wasn’t.

The embodiment of YMIRS shock and awe. Despite the destructive potential of his power, he prefers studying astronomy. He is also known as the star gazer.

The first person to inherit the Power of the Titans, the ancestor of most modern Eldians, and the “mother” of the Nine. A slave girl for King Fritz who helped form the Eldian empire. After her death her soul was condemned to the Paths where she spent the last 2,000 years building Titan bodies and answering requests from her “children”.

* TheGhost:
* NotQuiteTheRightThing:
* BrainUploading:

to:

An artificial will created by Karl Fritz and the Warhammer Titan which has taken control of the Founder. Like Fritz, he believes that the Eldian people deserve to be wiped out and the world will be better off without them or Titans, this he controls every member of royal blood that inherits him so they won’t do anything when Marley attacks.
* StrawNihilist:
BrainUploading: He is basically a mental copy of Karl Fritz bound to the Founder.
* TheGhost:

Added DiffLines:

Nine entities that came into existence when Ymir gained the Power of the Titans. They were shaped by her primal desires and fear of death before being given forms of their own. Since Ymir’s death they have been bouncing from host to host.
* AndIMustScream: Up until the battle of Mitras the Titan Wills could not talk to or control their hosts, only make subconscious suggestions (which could still be ignored) and talk to them in their dreams (which are forgotten after).
** This changes after the Battle of Mitras where the wills can talk to their hosts and even take control of their bodies if needed. Though the other wills are content to let their hosts actions be their own, the Warhammer jumps at the chance to completely control Laura Tybur, putting her in this position.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: They have been around for 2,000 years. Hopping from host to host during Eldia’s reign. Giving them power and influencing their actions subconsciously. To this day there are many cults inspired by them and their actions through their hosts have shaped civilization.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: They refer to each other as siblings (though the Founder goes by Father) and consider Ymir their mother. But they all have issues with atleast one of the other and a long history of grudges and disagreements. The Attack Titan is considered an outcast, he and Armor have a rivalry, Beast is greatly disliked for his cruelty, Cart is an outcast for their nihilism, and they consider the Founder a neglectful parent. Also, the wills besides Attack all left Ymir in the Paths assuming she was fine with her “job” only to realize she wasn’t.
* EldritchAbomination: They are entities created from the fears and primal desires of a scared slave girl and cannot interact with the physical world unless they are in control of hosts. Not to mention they manifest giant Titan bodies for themselves of unique shapes from Path energy.
* EveryoneHasStandards: They (with the exception of the Warhammer) refuse to take control of their hosts even when they don’t agree with them and are willing to let their actions be their own.
* GenderBlender: They identify themselves with the same gender as their host, referring to each other as brother/sister at different times in their lives. The only exception is the Female Titan, who also only ever chooses female hosts, due to representing Ymir’s identity as a woman.
* LikeASonToMe: They consider the children of their hosts their own as well and take offense to the Vow of Renouncing war stating they have never known the feeling of being parents. The Female Titan boasts that she sired many daughters through her shifters (which then became her hosts) and the Attack Titan has some fatherly affection for Eren. The Armored and Female Titans have also taken parental roles towards Reiner and Annie respectively. Beast fakes some of this to manipulate Zeke.


Added DiffLines:

* SoProudOfYou: Unlike Grisha who was quite horrified, the Attack Titan is proud that Eren killed two kidnappers to save Mikasa when he was eight.


Added DiffLines:

* LikeFatherLikeSon: He shares the same rebellious spirit of his father in his younger years. He also takes after the Attack Titan a lot and can be considered his son as well by virtue of Grisha being the Attack Titans host when he fathered Eren.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Eren approved of his father leading the Eldian restorationists while visiting his father’s memories, but was horrified and disgusted by his treatment of Zeke.
* SympathyForTheDevil: Though Eren still has some negative feelings towards Zeke for changing Raganko into Titans, he makes an effort to talk to his half-brother after seeing his childhood through his fathers memories.

* AllPowerfulBystander
* TheStoic

* TheStoic
TheStoic: He’s imposing and formal.
* WorthyOpponent WorthyOpponent: Though he has nothing against Armin personally, Armin is this to him by proxy of Bertholdt rivalry with him. He compliments Armin when he thinks to use a sword with a crystal end to redirect Bertholdt lightning back at them.

* AdaptationalPersonalityChangeAdaptationalPersonalityChange: This version of Ymir was never IN LOVE with King Fritz. She was simply compelled to make Titans in the paths due to her slave conditioning and she’s eager for Eren and the Attack Titan to start the Rumbling to express her rage so she can move on.

* PoorCommunicationKillsPoorCommunicationKills: He resents his father because he thinks he failed to get the Founder resulting in everything that’s happened since.

However this is more because thinking like that is how he was raised than anything else. He even admits that despite a part of him wanting to kill Eren and Armin he also feels sorry for him.
** He is also distrustful of the Titan wills due to them being remnants of the Eldian empire and refers to them as “Devil Things” and “Eldian Abominations”.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: He knows Marley doesn’t care about him and will eventually kill all Eldians, Paradis or otherwise. He’s just too immersed in the propaganda he was brought up with to turn traitor. Subverted as to where he states he knows Marley will fall too, he just doesn’t care since he will be dead by then anyways.
