Appearance
Levi has short, straight black hair styled in an undercut curtain, as well as narrow, intimidating dull gray eyes with dark circles under them and a deceptively youthful face. He is quite short, but his physique is well-developed in musculature from extensive vertical maneuvering equipment usage. He is usually either frowning or expressionless; that, plus his extremely calm demeanor, often makes it difficult for others to guess what he is thinking.
Personality
As a result of his early childhood years, Levi is described as a “clean freak” by those who know him personally as he prefers his environment and himself to be spotlessly clean. He is averse to having either himself or his equipment soiled, and has been known to wipe down his blood-smeared blades while still on the battlefield. However, he will not hesitate to touch filth if he deems it necessary.
Despite his preoccupation with cleanliness, Levi is not very approachable. He rarely shows emotion, giving a cold impression to others. His manner of speaking tends to be very blunt, even insulting, and his comments are often coarse or inappropriate. He is not above provoking or belittling those who oppose or irritate him. His sense of humor tends toward the vulgar, insulting, and dark. All of this makes him unsettling to a great number of people.
Powers and Abilities
Levi does not appear to possess any superhuman abilities. He is, however, an extremely skilled and efficient Titan killer, being considered humanity’s greatest soldier. Levi utilizes efficient, unorthodox attack patterns, often grappling onto ledges and releasing the hooks of his 3D gear mid-attack. For unique Titans, he will aim for debilitating parts of a Titan – such as the eyes, muscle tissue, and joints – to incapacitate it, rather than straight shots to the nape.
