Tom Ksaver

Tom Xaver (トム・クサヴァー) was an Eldian researcher and Warrior who held the power of the Beast Titan. He was the mentor and friend of Zeke Yeager.

Appearance
Tom had short dark hair and a round face. He wore the traditional apparel of a Warrior and a red armband, showing that he was an Eldian and an honorary Marleyan. Tom also wore glasses identical to the ones Zeke Yeager would later wear as an adult.

Personality
Possessing an inquisitive mind, Tom was always curious about how the Titans came to be and mentioned to a young Zeke Yeager that he became a Titan researcher primarily because of it. Usually seen with a smile on his face, Tom was an easy-going man with a slight care-free attitude; he was also compassionate and comforted Zeke after the boy turned in his parents to the Marleyan authorities.

History
When Zeke Yeager sided with the Public Security Authorities and exposed his parents Grisha and Dina as members of the Eldia Restorationists, Tom was with Zeke and his grandparents as they were detained and taken away to Paradis.

Sometime around the year 845, Zeke began wearing glasses identical to Xaver's.

Unnamed final arc
After Zeke loses his glasses in a battle against Levi in the Titan Forest, he remembers his time with Xaver and then reminds himself that he has a mission to do.
