Levi (No Regrets)

Levi (リヴァイ) is a former thug from the Underground and close friend of Furlan Church and Isabel Magnolia. He was taken into the Survey Corps by Squad Leader Erwin Smith.

Appearance
Levi has short, straight black hair styled in an undercut, as well as narrow, intimidating dull blue eyes with dark circles under them and a deceptively youthful face. He is quite short, but his physique is well-developed in musculature from extensive vertical maneuvering equipment usage. He is usually either frowning or expressionless; that, plus his extremely calm demeanor, often makes it difficult for others to guess what he is thinking.

Personality
Levi usually has a calm and cold demeanor. Displays of power do not impress him and he is able to stay level headed even when he faces unplanned issues. He is also an impolite and blunt person who does not hesitate to threaten people who annoy him or insult anyone who looks down on him. Levi is also very strict when it comes to cleaning.

His friends Furlan and Isabel are very important to him. He is always seen with them, trust their skills and is willing to keep them from danger. When they passed away, he felt guilty and furious, willing to kill Erwin, who he held responsible for their deaths.

Attack on Titan: No Regrets
Levi, Furlan, and Isabel sit in an open underground sewer system admiring the birds in the sky above. After some time gazing, the trio leave to return to the Undeground.

The trio walks confidently past a group of intimidating thugs when Levi bumps into one. When the man pulls out a gun, Levi shoots past using vertical maneuvering equipment and knocks a barrel into the man, which wipes him out clean. The civilians watch in awe, and Levi's performance manages to catch the eye of Squad Leader Erwin from the Survey Corps.

Levi is with Isabel and Furlan in the underground, using their vertical maneuvering equipment, when the group notices that they are being followed, and assume that they are Military Policemen. Levi tells Isabel and Furlan that though it's a pain, they can't lead them to their hideout, and they take off. As the trio flies through the underground, Furlan points out to Levi that they are still being followed, and that their pursuers are getting even closer. As they continue, Levi says that they may not be Military Policemen. He quickly doubles back to check, and discovers that their pursuers are members of the Survey Corps. Levi goes back and tells his friends they are being chased down by the Survey Corps. Furlan asks him how he knows it's them, and Levi replies that he could tell due to the Wings of Freedom on their backs. Levi tells Isabel and Furlan that it won't be easy to lose them, but not to get caught. They agree, then all take off in separate directions.

Levi quickly zips through the buildings of the underground using his vertical maneuvering equipment. Thinking he's lost them, he stops to walk, before Mike slams into him from behind. Before being pushed to the ground, Levi throws Mike into the ground. Levi starts to look for a second person. He begins leaving, but Erwin comes and cuts the cord of his vertical maneuvering equipment, and Levi falls to the ground. Levi quickly gets up, pulls out a knife, and attacks Erwin. He takes Erwin's sword and throws it out of the way. Before Levi does anything else, Mike stops him and tells him to look around. Levi looks to see that both Isabel and Furlan have been caught as well.

Erwin comments on how the trio have amazing vertical maneuvering skills, and questions them on where they learned to use the gear, where they got their hands on it, and if they have had any military training. After getting no responses, Mike grabs Levi's head and slams it into a puddle. After Isabel and Furlan answer Erwin, Mike pulls Levi's head off the ground. Erwin asks for his name, and he reluctantly tells him his name is Levi. Erwin says he can allow Levi and his friends to join the Survey Corps, or turn them over to the Military Police. Levi hesitantly agrees to join the Survey Corps.

The trio arrive at the Survey Corps Headquarters, and Levi tells Furlan that he does not actually plan on enlisting, but simply wants to get closer to Erwin so he can wait for an opening to kill him. Furlan tells him that it is pointless to kill Erwin, and that Levi needs to trust him on that. The three are called away before Levi gets a chance to respond.

Later, Isabel and Furlan find Levi sitting out on the roof of headquarters. The two join him, and they all admire the sky together. Furlan asks Levi if it is as beautiful as it was where he used to live, and Levi says maybe. Levi then tells Furlan that he has decided to trust him, and not kill Erwin for now, to which Furlan responds with a smile.

Abilities
Levi stole vertical maneuvering equipment with Furlan and Isabel. They somehow trained themselves and used on underground missions.

Relationships

 * Furlan Church - They were close friends when they lived below the capital. He was Levi's confidant when they lived in the Underground City.
 * Isabel Magnolia - They were close friends when they lived below the capital. She used to name him as her big brother. Her death was one of the reasons why Levi became a part so important of the Survey Corps.
