Every District's PTA has it's specialty, from the Official bodyguards of One, to the tech gods of Three, and the investigators of Four, all the way to the field grunts of Seven, and everything in between. But there was a time when the mutts created during the war were so overwhelming that entire chunks of the population were being picked off as time went on. It was for this reason, and for the District's once-close relationship with hunting, that Nine's Peacekeeper Training Academy began to specialize in muttation containment, dubbing its graduates members of the Scout Regiment.
The classes here are brutal and unpredictable. The students are forbidden from discussing anything they learn to ordinary citizens, in fact. This is in part to keep the people of Panem in the dark about the always-looming threat of mutts, and also to hide what could, under some lights, seem like torture. Days without food, being left in the middle of the wilderness and forced to find their ways back: the dropout rate in District Nine's PTA is higher than any other by a staggering 15%.
For the first three years, it's all about training the strong and weeding out the weak. By each student's senior year, however, they are considered junior members of the Scout Regiment, and regularly take part in real missions under the guidance of their superiors.
Of the fifty-seven initiates that started in this class, only twelve remain, and a full year separates them from their end goal of graduating. Some may die, some may leave. But for now, the best they can do is fight like hell and hope for the best.
characters
annie leonhart
eighteen. annie has a tendency to isolate herself, and does not make friends easily as a result. she can be apathetic and somnolent, and upon first glance, she seems disinterested and dissatisfied with everything around her. the issue is that she's also ridiculously talented. fearless. she has a knack for looking at things from an objective view, and giving the higher ups exactly what they yearn for, and not a damn thing more.
[eulalie blake 1a 🍒 tris ]
armin arlert
seventeen. while its no secret that he isn't the most physically domineering guy in class, armin earns his keep through means of strategy and sheer intelligence. he is quite fearful, and may often need saving, and that's something about himself he would desperately like to change. but alas, no amount of training can give him an edge on the monsters around them, and it's easy to say he'll do better until the time to follow through comes.
[Python ]
bertolt hoover
eighteen. quiet by design, bertolt himself is not embarrassed to admit he is rather weak of will, and too quick to follow popular opinion. his lack of initiative is, perhaps, one of his greatest flaws, for he is otherwise outstanding in his blossoming career. while he is usually quite reserved and fine with keeping himself blended in with the crowd, he does also seem a bit too comfortable for his own good. on one hand, it could be confidence, but on the other, it may be a hint as to what kind of person he is inside.
[open]
connie springer
seventeen. connie is an easy guy to like. he's outgoing, impetuous, and never afraid to say what is on his mind. he can be a bit vain, sometimes to the point of talking a bigger walk than he can handle. he can be rather unfocused, and is prone to random outbursts of emotion, but he has a good heart and seems committed to the cause and to his friends.
[lance ]
eren jaeger
seventeen. eren is hard-headed, iron-willed, and perhaps so stubborn that death himself would rather give him a second shot than try to argue with him. he's passionate about everything in his life, but nothing more so than his family and friends. eren has trouble understanding that he cannot do everything himself, and by extension, often gets himself into some pretty precarious positions.
[gamemaker tallis 🧚🏽♂️kaitlin.]
historia reiss
seventeen. originally from district one. despite the being outwardly very pretty, historia is very shy and seems unsure of practically everything she does. however, she has an unwavering need to be kind to others, to help in any way that she can, both in an attempt to gain some esteem for herself, and also to be seen as a good person. there is a lot of sadness beneath the surface where historia is concerned. all she needs is someone who cares enough to notice.
[tick 12a / calla ]
jean kirstein
seventeen. point blank, period: jean is blunt. he has no restraint in expressing himself, even when the consequences are obvious. he also prides himself on being pragmatic and realistic, and is not keen on exposing himself to life-threatening situations. originally when he joined the PTA, he admits it was so that he could have an easy government job and he could travel. when he wants to be, he can be a fantastic leader and a wonderful fighter, but the biggest issue is how long it takes to get him there.
[umber vivuus 12b 🥀 [dars] ]
marco bott
seventeen. originally from district seven. few people are as idealistic as marco. he sees the world through the light that is left on it, as opposed to focusing on the dark. his faith could be so strong that it runs into the territory of willful ignorance, and he is not entirely sure he prefers reality to the dream world he creates in his mind. but he is selfless, if even to the point of being a martyr, and often acts as the voice of hope withing the group. his feelings for jean may run a bit more deeply than platonic, and he certainly has reason to believe that those feelings are reciprocated, but marco is acutely aware of their differences, and of the uncertainty of their futures.

mikasa ackerman
seventeen. while once cheerful and outgoing, mikasa has hardened through years of letdowns and heartache. she was adopted by eren's family at a fairly young age, and remains fiercely protective and loyal to him to this day. even to the point of following him when he joined the pta. the funny thing is, mikasa is regarded as the most natural talent in the group. she is intimidating to the others and comes off as quite severe and dutiful. she is a girl of few words, and is very good at keeping herself level-headed when under pressure. but her icy disposition does a fair job of separating her from most of the others, making it harder for them to get to know her.
face claim must be asian.
[open]
reiner braun
eighteen. few are as motivated as reiner. what his best friend bertolt lacks in initiative, reiner makes up for in spades. there is a simple confidence to everything he does, and rather than viewing the others as competition, he is more likely to see them as his underlings. he is decisive and assertive, and perhaps a bit too stubborn in terms of seeing things from another person's perspective. he does seem to desire to do his best and to ensure everyone else does the same, but his constant need for control could easily be his downfall in the end.
[Tom ]
sasha blouse
seventeen. originally from district two. sasha is friendly and fun-loving, with a compulsive appetite. she seems timid at first, and is prone to making rookie mistakes, thus branding herself as an example of what not to do most of the time. she is also quite eccentric and intuitive, and as such has often proved herself a vital part of the group. despite her general warmth, sasha has a natural talent for turning off the "human" part of her brain when in the field, and holds little remorse for the creatures she is fighting.
[✨ zozo. ]
ymir fritz
eighteen. to those she likes, ymir is selfless, loyal, and protective. she has even helped historia to the detriment of her own studies on several occasions. she's also alarmingly perceptive, and can read into the inner workings of a person with superb accuracy. she exudes an air of professionalism and accomplishment, and many of the others are quick to assume she'll go on to be one of the greats someday. to those she does not care for, she can be selfish, cynical, uncooperative, confrontational, and exploitative. ymir herself regards herself as a pawn of the devil: born from evil. one of the leading reasons everyone respects ymir so much is that they know so little about her life before the academy. the truth is, she only joined as a last-ditch chance to escape.
