Application:
Name: Flore Noctis

Age: 16

District coming from: Utopia District

Squad Training For: Scouting Legion

Appearance (and personality, somewhat): Orange hair with a small patch of what appears to be light grey, singed hair on the right side of her face, skinny by appearance and much shorter than most her age, standing at a whopping 4.9 feet. she studies everything her eyes cross with some intent, seemingly interested in every small detail she sees. however, despite this, she is not actually that interested, and this shows in that she has a short memory, and a short attention span, preferring to talk rather than be talked to.

Backstory: Though she mostly keeps to herself, the one thing she does let others know is that she does not like her family. Born in a rich family inside the walls of Rose in the Utopia district, she was disdainful of most other people until she was present to the treatment the police gave lower citizens after the fall of Shiganshina district and wall Maria. She was disgusted, and after a week of this, began to question her own existence, and the value of life inside the walls. Her family tried to sway her, but she escaped from home to join the military, planning to join the Scouting Legion and pay back the lower classes for being born into such a rich caste, believing that the true wealth of humanity was in it's struggles and it's will to survive, not in it's material accomplishments.

Note: this is not her entire background, the rest is to be developed as fitting to the character's actions (I tend to develop a single personality for each character I make, and I don't want to have to explain it wrongly through a false background)

Application:
Name: Edythe Sheridan
Age: 16
District coming from: Yalkell
Squad Training For: Military Police
Appearance: Her hair is a lush chestnut-brown hue that is chopped down to her ears in uneven, ragged lengths when she decided to create a life of her own. She has dull jade green eyes and sparse freckles that speckle her cheeks lightly. She is of average height and weight, and tends to carry herself in a formal manner due to her upbringing.
Backstory(Optional if you want it to be found out in the RP):

Edythe grew up in the comfort and safety of the innermost walls in a large mansion-like house thanks to her father. Her father was a successful, yet greedy, commander of much of the commerce and trade of food rations within the Walls. With his swift aggrandizement in the economic world, he lost most of the compassion that he held when he had first sold to the poor people inhabiting the Walls. Now he charged outrageous sums to those that he could and exploited all aspects that would generate him even more revenue. He even abused the position that his wife upheld.

Edythe’s mother was one of the top 10 trainees given the option to join the Military Police and accepted the position readily. Her mother was assigned to patrol and service those living behind Wall Sina, and that is how Edythe’s mother met her father. Her mother fell in love with the sweet, honest, and generous young businessman trying to make a living by supporting those that were in dire need of food rations. Nowadays, that sweet businessman runs around doing anything that he can to earn more and more money; even going as far as to force his wife into illegally fudging the numbers in the tax collection books to cut back on taxes placed upon the family and company.

With the change in attitude towards her mother and his customers, her father also enforced stricter rules on Edythe. Being an only child with parents who valued work over spending time with their child, Edythe was at first allowed to roam wherever she desired within the confines of Wall Sina due to the lack of supervision. She would visit the other children daily and play in the grassy areas. Sometimes she would try to peak into the surrounding district, but would be ushered away by guards or traveling merchants that passed through the gates.

By the age of 7, her father began hiring tutors and instructors to teach her the refined arts and basic education. Whereas this was a privilege desired by many, it was more of a shackle latched onto Edythe. She preferred her unrestricted freedom over being forced to attend lessons. Some days Edythe would sneak out of her lessons and play with the other children. As soon as her father caught wind of such disrespectful actions, she was placed under strict supervision by a nanny and locked in her room. All of her necessities were brought to her along with several more tutors and various instructors. She tried to talk reason to her parents that her freedom to roam around the city provided her with much more knowledge and life experience than learning from tutors.

Eventually her pent up frustration got the best of her, so she scaled down from her bedroom window by a series of knotted sheets and other fabrics and wandered about the city until she was swept up into the flow of people exiting the Yalkell District and flowing into one of the districts behind Wall Rose. At that time, there was an outbreak within the crowd about the unfair and unjust prices of the food rations supplied by her father’s company. Edythe, at first appalled by their cruel words and ready to stand up for her father, soon opened her eyes and absorbed the reality of the impoverished people that had lost their homes and loved ones to the Titans and could barely get by, much less purchase such overpriced food.

Upon returning home, she confronted her father about what she witnessed after he finished lecturing her on how irresponsible she had been. His reply of, “Sometimes we have to step on others to protect what we cherish most”, displeased her so greatly that she vowed to becoming the driving force against her father and the corruption that he had left in his wake.

After years of putting up with boring lessons, she was molded and shaped into an exceptionally brilliant woman in academic standards, or so she was told, before she devised another plan of escape. On one of those rare days in which she was allowed out into the city for a planned educational trip, she slipped away from her supervisors and filed off into the crowds. She retrieved a small kitchen knife from her back and chopped off her hair into ragged, random assortment down to her ears to mark the day that she would change from the dutiful child to the rebellious emissary of change.

She joined the Military Camp in hopes of joining the Military Police.

Suggestions?: I believe that you should carry over the rule that people that want to be

humans that transform into titans

should talk to you before putting it in their application.

Name: Laraine (Lara) Becke

Age: 16

District coming from: Karanese

Squad Training For: Scouting Legion

Appearance: A thin yet fit build standing at 5'6" with long dirty blond hair that's often kept in a single tight braid. Her skins fairly tanned and her hands are covered with small scars so she often wears gloves. Her eyes are hazel. She also wears a black bandanna hanging around the front of her neck.

Backstory:
Laraine was born and raised in Karanese and has never left it until now. Her parents were diligent workers who were devoted to their job in the factory, their life line as time was tough. At first everything was ok and the family situation was alright. Her parents would bring home toys made of scrap parts when they could, they would read the few books they owned to her and do other general family stuff that someone in her situation could do. She was allowed to move around the town but she mostly just stayed at home drawing out strange little inventions she imagined, trying to make them as realistic as possible but not as well supplied to make it possible, or played around with the birds in the front yard, often marveling at how free they were to go wherever they wanted. It was a nice, yet poor life.

It changed a bit when she was about nine and times got tough. She was forced to work in the same factory as her parents, adding parts to 3DMG and other machinery one by one. Her father had become more irritable and started to push Lara around, your general domestic violence. He beat her when she cried, when she was too childish around their superiors at work, or really anytime that he was upset. This hardened to the point where she barely showed any emotion around people. She did enjoy her job; though, because she finally found out how everything worked together, which allowed her to make her little doodles more realistic.

Now most would assume she joined the military training squad to get a better life in the Millitary Police, or just to get away from her abusive situations, but no. She joined it to be able to improve the Maneuver Gear she loved to work with so dearly and slightly because she enjoyed the thought of being able to be free of the walls trapping humans progress. Her father was furious of course when she told him she was going to join, he'd beaten her senseless giving her a black eye and several bruises, but he didn't stop her when she walked out the door. He only shouted "You must have a death wish if you wish to leave your secure life behind!" To which she replied, "Yes, I actually do. I want to die outside the walls, free like an ugly pigeon rather than a trapped canary."

Suggestions?:Nope
