Daz

"I can't fight the Titans... My buddies were eaten right in front of me... They were eaten alive... and I didn't feel anything! No sadness or hate... I was just... incredibly grateful that it wasn't me..."

- Daz admits his cowardice

Daz (ダズ) is a trainee (訓練兵) of the 104th Training Corps and participated in the Battle of Trost District.

Appearance
Daz has a short crop of spiky light hair. He wears the normal uniform of the 104th Training Corps.

Personality
Daz is constantly terrified, regardless of the situation he has an ever-present fear of something bad soon to happen, and when it does happen he loses complete control and often complies with dying by sword over facing Titans again. He is not a confident soldier or physically strong as he was unable to complete the mountain training when someone as petite as Historia Reiss was.

104th Training Corps arc
During a training exercise designed to test trainees' endurance to harsh climates, Daz overexerted himself trying to improve his scores and lost consciousness, forcing Ymir and Krista to drag his body with them.

Although Ymir repeatedly suggests leaving Daz, Krista refuses, and Ymir is eventually forced to abandon Krista in order to use her titan form to return Daz to safety.

When Krista finally returns to the cabins herself, Daz is seen resting in a bed inside while doctors inspect him.

Battle of Trost District arc
When Dot Pixis announces the plan to reconquer Trost District, Daz, having barely survived the Trost evacuation support operation prior, begins to panic and starts screaming that he does not want to die. Though Marco Bott tries to quiet him, a commanding officer overhears and threatens to execute him. Daz replies that execution would be better than being eaten by a Titan.

After Pixis reminds all potential deserters that they will be abandoning their families to the Titans, Daz returns to participate in the operation to plug the breach, unable to leave his family to such a fate.

After surviving the remainder of the battle, it is unknown what becomes of Daz.

Abilities
He is an unexceptional member of the 104th, but skilled (or lucky) enough to have survived multiple encounters with Titans.
