abilities
weapons: her weapon of choice would be the blades she was trained to kill titans with, though she also is quite handy with a knife and wouldn't feel completely useless with one. give this girl anything sharp and easy to wield and she won't disappoint.
skills: this girl is certainly no stranger to killing others or fighting for her own life. once she graduated from her training one of the commanders even stated that she was worth 100 soldiers. mikasa is highly skilled in combat and isn't afraid to jump into action to protect the ones she loves. even though she is strong with her blades or any other sharp objects, she also is capable of hand-to-hand combat. she is rather agile and strong, but does lack a sense of teamwork. she possesses no powers and simply relies on her fighting ability to keep herself alive. another weak point in her skills is the lack of range. even though she is very strong up close, she lack anything that helps her in long range fighting and must get up close to be effective.
personality and background
personality: mikasa is a very withdrawn girl after the death of her parents, though she deeply cares for her close friends. she doesn't like to get close with others, afraid that she might lose them like she did her parents. despite all of this, she is a very strong willed person with a strong sense of what is right and what is wrong. her loyalty to her friends and comrades is something that can't be matched once her trust is gained, she will protect that person with her life no matter what. sometimes she can be overprotective, especially of her two best friends, armin and eren, and that leads her to making a rash decision, but she always manages to keep a cool head and find her way out. the girl rarely ever loses her composure, though when she does it is when her friends are in great danger or if she loses her will to fight. her friends have always been the reason why she kept fighting and if something ever happened to them, the girl would completely shut down and in a way, forget how to fight. in times such as that, the girl will weep which is the most emotion she will ever show. she very rarely had much emotion over anything and rather seem neutral on it all.
history: mikasa was born to a caucasian father and asian mother. before her parents' death, she lived peacefully with them in the farmlands of wall maria. mikasa underwent a painful scarring ritual from her mother, whom cut into her skin the mark of their asian clan, and was taught an asian style embroidery. being the last of their race made them high value targets to human traffickers, who killed mikasa's parents and attempted to kidnap her for the purpose of selling her as a slave to the people in the Capitol, when she was only nine years old. she was rescued by eren, who tricked and killed two of the slavers. he was then overwhelmed by the third trafficker and was on the verge of being strangled. desperately, eren urged mikasa to fight to win. although she was initially frightened, she came to realize that, "this world is a callous and merciless place," dispatching the kidnapper who was trying to kill eren. when eren's father arrived with members of the military police brigade, she was given the scarf by eren and accepted into his family. this event awakened the fighting instincts and perfect self-control that would later turn her into a formidable soldier. she lived with eren's family in wall maria's shiganshina district until it was destroyed by the colossal titan. once the wall was breached, she escaped to wall rose along with eren and armin. when the all came of age, they joined the trainee corps together to become soldiers and get revenge on the titans that had taken their home. she didn't want to join, but only followed since eren wished to and she vowed to protect him. once their training finished, she graduated top of the class and was highly praised by everyone she had come into contact with. only a day later, wall rose was attacked by the colossal titan after disappearing for 5 years. during the battle, she thought eren had died after being eaten by a titan and completely lost control of herself. she was willing to die then and there, until she was saved by a titan that was attacking the other titans. eventually this ended up being eren and she stood by him and protected him from being killed by the government. the two of them then joined the survey corps.
