History
After it was discovered that Eren could transform into a titan, Eren was sentenced to death. Dot Pixis, however, happened to be nearby when Armin gave a passionate speech in defense of his friend and of the benefits that he could bring to humanity. The officer in charge wasn't swayed, but as he was about to give the kill order, Dot Pixis stopped him, believing in Armin's words.

Pixis would make his appearance again in Ch.36 when a member from the Scouting Legion informs him and the others about Wall Rose being supposedly breached for the 2nd time by the titans.
