It's so nice. I wonder if I'll be able to ride a blimp if I become rich some day.
— Faye while looking at a blimp in the sky[3]

Faye Yeager (フェイ・イェーガー Fei Yēgā?) was the younger sister of Grisha Yeager and as an Eldian, she grew up in the Liberio internment zone in Marley.

Appearance

Faye had short, dark hair that barely reached her shoulders with messy bangs and dark eyes. She wore a flowing dress, a bright-colored scarf, and a coat, along with an armband which identified her as an Eldian citizen.

Personality

Faye did not have much experience with the world at such a young age, and often needed Grisha to push her out of her comfort zones. She was an innocent child but was often reliant on her older brother for protection. However, she saw the world with whimsy and delight, looking at the blimp in the sky in awe.[4]

History

Faye and Grisha watch the blimp

Faye and Grisha found a blimp

One day, after leaving their home, Faye and her brother Grisha Yeager caught sight of a blimp, which fascinated them. When the blimp flew over their city limits Wall, they followed it to the higher end of town, outside of the internment zone. While searching for the blimp, Faye and Grisha were harassed by the Marleyan citizens who commented on their armbands and referred to them as "rats" and "demon spawn"- indicating the widely-held Marleyan belief that Eldians are impure and undesirable. After reaching a ridge overlooking the Blimp Hangar, Faye and Grisha encountered two Marley officers slacking off nearby. Because Grisha and Faye had left the internment zone without an exit permit, they were offered a choice between enforced labour, or corporal punishment. Grisha requested the physical punishment, in a bid to prevent his parents being involved, and claimed to have brought Faye against her will, offering to take the burden for both of them. One of the men beat up Grisha while the other took Faye away. However, Faye was not present when Grisha returned home after his beating.[5]

Faye's death

Faye's death

The next day, Faye's mutilated body was found by the riverbank. The officers who encountered the children met with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Yeager, and told them that Faye had been safely left at the border, that the two officers' prohibitive workload prevented them escorting her all the way home, and that her death was Faye's own fault for having left the internment zone unaccompanied in the first place. Grisha, being aware that the men had been slacking off and dozing in the sunshine, was certain that the men were lying, and that Faye's death could not be her own fault. While their mother was overcome with sorrow, their father shamelessly demeaned himself to the officers, obsequiously assuring them that he would better educate his son in the sins of his ancestors, and the importance of not leaving the internment zone. Later, Yeager re-educated Grisha on their ancestors' evil past. When Grisha complained that the Marleyan officers were lying about Faye; that she was blameless, and that he believed that they had had her killed; his father berated him and insisted that all Eldians carry the blame of their ancestors' actions.[6]

Seven years later, Grisha joined the Eldian Restorationists after he received information which revealed that Faye was taken by the Marleyan officer who escorted her away that day and was eaten alive by dogs.[7]

Faye's death was later avenged as Eren Kruger, who was really an undercover member of the Eldian Restorationists, pushed his fellow officer, Gross, off the borderline wall of Paradis Island, resulting in Gross getting slowly devoured by a Pure Titan.[8]

Relationships

  • Grisha Yeager - Grisha was Faye's older brother. As children, the two shared a close, loving relationship. Faye tended to hide behind him when she was afraid, displaying the trust Faye had for her sibling. She cared for his well-being, crying when watching him being punished by a Public Security Authority.[9] Faye's death was what later inspired Grisha to join the Eldian Restorationists movement.[7]
