Keith Shadis

Character from Attack on Titan by Hajime Isayama

The bald, terrifying drill instructor who once commanded the Survey Corps — and stepped down because he knew he was ordinary. Trained the generation that would change the world.

Bald, deeply lined face, intimidating build, eyes full of a bitterness he never quite hides. Former 12th Commander of the Survey Corps who resigned after too many failed expeditions. Became the 104th training instructor, shaping every major soldier in the story. Sabotaged Eren's ODM gear during training — not from malice, but from a misguided attempt to keep Grisha's son out of danger. Died alongside Magath destroying the Marleyan cruiser.

Also known as: Keith Shadis, Instructor Shadis, Keith
