My daughters. Give birth and multiply. The blood of Ymir must not die out. If you die, my daughters, have my grandchildren eat your spines. If my grandchildren die, their spines will be passed from child to child. To all of my progeny. My Eldians will rule the lands of this land with the massive frames. And my Titans will continue their reign. Into eternity, so long as this world of mine remains. |

| — Fritz's dying wish[1] | ||
Fritz (フリッツ Furittsu?) was the king of Eldia around 2,000 years ago. When one of his slaves, Ymir, gained the power of the Titans, he used her to expand Eldia into an empire and destroy his enemies. As a "reward," he gave Ymir his name and seed, and had three daughters with her.
Upon Ymir's death, Fritz forced his daughters to eat their mother's body to preserve her power. Upon his own death, he commanded his daughters to continue reproducing, so that Ymir's people will never die out and Eldia could rule the world with its Titans forever.[2]
Appearance
Fritz was a bearded old man. When Eldia was a small tribe, Fritz was shirtless and wore an animal pelt around his hip. As Ymir began amassing wealth for him, his attire gradually became more and more luxurious. He wore a horned helmet for a period, before transitioning to a crown decorated with five nine-pointed stars.[2]
Personality
Fritz was a cruel man. He enslaved others and no qualms about disfiguring, muting, and partially blinding them. His punishment to a little girl for freeing a pig was to have her hunted for sport. When Ymir gained the power of the Titans, he used her to slaughter the Marleyans and gain power for himself. When Ymir took a spear for him, he responded by ordering her to get back up and continue working as his slave. After Ymir died, instead of giving her a burial, he had his daughters eat her corpse to have them gain her power.[2]
History
Fritz was the ruler of the Eldians, who were originally a small tribe. He presumably ordered the attack and enslavement of the village that Ymir originally inhabited. When a pig was set loose, allegedly by one of the slaves, he gathered them to find the culprit and Ymir was singled out by the slaves. Fritz had his men hunt Ymir in a forest, but Ymir found a tree that contained a pool and a spine-like creature that gave her the power of the Titans. Discovering this, Fritz pardoned her and had her continue working for him as his slave.
Fritz had Ymir build bridges and roads and cultivated the wastelands. He also used Ymir as a weapon of mass destruction against the Marleyans. He gave Ymir his name and she bore him three daughters: Maria, Rose, and Sheena.
Ymir saves Fritz
One day, a group of Marleyans came to surrender. However, one of the commanders took out his spear and attempted to assassinate Fritz. Ymir took the spear instead and the Marleyans were executed. Fritz did not believe that a spear could kill Ymir, so he told her to get back up.
When she actually died, fearful that the power of the Titans might be gone forever, Fritz ordered the butchering of Ymir's corpse and served it to his daughters. It succeeded in passing down Ymir's power, and upon his deathbed, Fritz told his daughters to reproduce and cannibalize, so that Eldia and Titans may rule for all of eternity.
