Personality
This military aristocrat is a selfish man, who values his own interest over that of the citizens of the Walls.

The Uprising arc
Gerald is a part of an audience held with other nobles in the presence of King Fritz. He is unhappy to hear that Djel Sannes failed to get any information from interrogating Pastor Nick.

In another meeting with the assembly to discuss what information they have been able to gather, Aurille voices his concerns with the scouts discovering their role in Nick's death if they are not careful, but Gerald argues that what the scouts discover at this point does not matter. The meeting is interrupted by the arrival of a letter from Rod informing them that he has captured Eren and Historia, and is making his move against the scouts.

After Erwin Smith is arrested, Gerald pays the commander a visit in his jail cell. Apologizing for keeping him waiting, Gerald informs Erwin that his interrogation is beginning.

Following the interrogation, Gerald reports to the rest of the assembly that he was unable to gain any information from Erwin, positing that Erwin must not have learned anything from Nick. He assures the rest of the council that Historia can make any claim she wants about her name, but will have no proof to back up her claims. Their meeting is interrupted with news that Erwin has arrived for his trial, and the men all set out for the court room, ready to sentence him to death.
