Founding Titan

The Coordinate (also referred to as the "invincible power") is an ability that is most recognizable for allowing the user to control the titans.

Description
This power is seen when Eren unintentionally commanded nearby titans to eat the Smiling Titan and to attack the Armored titan. However the real limit of this power is unknown. The coordinate also allows the user to erase the memory of a person (Frieda erased Historia's memories about her); however Kenny's grandfather had told him that the Ackerman bloodline and the Asian race were more durable to mental manipulation. Finally the power allows the user to remember the lost memories of mankind, giving the user omniscient knowledge about the world. The total control of the coordinate makes the wielder able to control both humans and titans, and due to the vast knowledge given to the user, this person is called God by Rod Reiss.

The power originally belonged to the Reiss bloodline; mankind's monarch had the power during his government, but when the heir had to inherit the crown, the heir was told to become a titan using the serum and to eat the prior king. By doing so, the coordinate passed generation to generation. However it was stolen by Grisha Yeager by eating the former wielder, Frieda Reiss. Later on, Grisha was eaten by Eren's initial titan form, making the boy the new user of the coordinate.

Theories and Speculations

 * This power may have been used to build all three walls by controlling the titans and ordering them to harden themselves. This would explain why there are titans inside the walls.
 * This power may have been used by the monarchy to delete all of mankind's old memories about titans.
 * This power may be the reason why Reiner, Bertolt and Annie were looking for Eren.

Trivia

 * The Coordinate, as well as other titan abilities, is retained in the user's spinal cord, so it is not necessary to eat the whole wielder.
 * According to Rod, this power can only be used to it's full potential by a descendant of the Reiss family. That is why Rod tried to have Historia eat Eren, due to the fact that she was the only remaining heir of the Reiss bloodline.
