Welcome to For the Glory, soldier! We are an intermediate roleplay about the anime/manga Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin). Our story begins soon after the battle for Trost, leaving our characters, worn, battered and distraught. The popular district is currently overrun with titans, leaving it useless for any sort of cause that could aid in humanity’s fight. Those in the military are currently trying to devise a plan to take back Trost, and an operation will be put into place - that is, as soon as they acquire enough warm bodies to do so. Until then, they are in the midst of a hiatus, training as many cadets as possible to help them in carrying out their plan. The fight against the tyrannous beasts that rule over this world is as ruthless and relentless as ever, and it is up to you, soldier, to decide where our story will turn. Will humanity be able to retake Trost, or will it forever be in the merciless grasp of the titans? The answer is up to you.

Hange Zoë is, for lack of a better word, an eccentric enigma that is the driving force behind the Scout Regiment’s Titan research. Much regarding her past remains a story that she has kept locked away, but it is clear that she joined the Scout Regiment prior to the events that befell Shiganshina. Her borderline outrageous obsession with studying and understanding the Titans was not her original inspiration for joining the Scout Regiment. Quite the opposite—Hange initially held a strong hatred for the monsters that kept humankind trapped like livestock within the confines of the Walls. Likely due to the loss of a love one or some other trauma, Hange actually successfully claimed the lives of many Titans before her drastic change of heart.
As she puts it, her hatred for the Titans was as strong as any other’s until a day came when she severed a Titan’s head from its shoulders and kicked it with her boot. Proportional to its size, the head should have weighed a considerable amount but instead it felt as light as air. This realization sparked an insatiable curiosity within her, cluttering her mind with a boundless influx of questions and possibilities. The way that those creatures could transcend and defy basic and proven scientific principals lit a spark within her, making her yearn to seek out answers. Mankind knew so little about the Titans, a fact that Hange surmised was the reason that even in the one hundred years since the Wall’s construction humanity had never been successful in winning back any dignity against them. Thus, Hange gave rise to the scientific “division” of the Scout Regiment. As a squad leader, it is her squad’s job to retain and record as much information regarding the Titans as they can on expeditions.
During the 49th expedition beyond the Walls, Hange and her counterpart squad leader, Levi Ackerman, stumbled across information that would only intensify her compulsive need to study the Titans. In a moment of clouded judgment, she had impulsively followed a deviant type Titan away from the rest of the group in an attempt to understand it. The deviant brought her to a clearing in a forest that stretched far from their designated outpost and despite her attempts at communicate with the Titan, it eventually attacked her. Much to her horror, Levi eliminated the threat and ended the life of what she believed to be a prime test subject. Fortunately for him, the area bore other fruit: within a hollowed out notch in a nearby tree they had found a journal belonging to a soldier that served in the 34th expedition beyond the Walls. The soldier’s name was Ilse Langnar, and it was with her meticulous journal entries that Hange was able to learn that Titans were capable of speech and possibly even empathy. Two qualities that were never before even considered to be possible. She kept Ilse’s journal safe and submitted it to Commander Erwin Smith with a proposal to begin experimentation on live Titan subjects. With the evidence found therein, she received approval, and immediately set out to perform her experiments!
The day of the 56th expedition, Hange accompanied her fellow scouts to venture out behind the Walls. They had only departed several hours before the Colossal Titan appeared once more at Trost…
