Darius Baer-Varbrun

Darius Baer Walbrunn (ダリウス・ベーア＝ヴァルブルン) was a team leader (班長) of the Survey Corps who participated in the 57th expedition beyond the Walls.

Appearance
Darius had tanned skin and short, unkempt black hair. He wore the typical uniform of a member of the Survey Corps.

Personality
Darius seemed to be a creative man, as seen when he used the signal flare to attack and blind the Female Titan so that other three soldiers could finish it off.

The Female Titan arc
Darius is present while Erwin gives the recruits an speech. He even told him not to be too hard on their troops, because none of them would enter the Survey Corps. During the 57th Expedition, his squad is pursued by the Female Titan. It killed all of them one by one in various gruesome ways, including having one of his soldiers swung from his vertical maneuvering equipment wires until the inertia broke his spine. Darius attempts to flee from the village to warn the other members of the pure power and unpredictability of the mysterious Titan, but his horse is not fast enough to escape its sight. The Female Titan catches up, kicks him and the horse into the air, killing them both instantly.

Return to Shiganshina arc
Later in the Battle of Shiganshina, as Erwin Smith begins to lament the dwindling hopes of his dream, Darius stands among the many fallen Survey Corps comrades in Erwin's mind, wanting to know if their deaths had meaning.
