name. Annie Leonhart
age. 30 (Marco isn't alone)
before the infection. Hailing from a family with strong military roots and the only daughter of a high level employee of a private security firm with a notorious reputation, Annie was raised with the expectation that she'd follow a similar path. It helped, of course, that she was put on the rails for it and combat trained from a young age with expert skill in krav maga and marksmanship. At 18, she joined the Marines and served for 4 years, only once gaining rank above Lance Corporal before getting busted back down due to her utter inability to function as an NCO.

After her honorable discharge, she took a job as a contractor for the same company her father worked for and played "security consultant" in combat hotspots for several years. Though she didn't realize it until later, he had deliberately pulled some strings to assign her to a contract to support the security forces for an isolated research lab facility. Though she remained cold for the most part to her military counterparts, their shared experiences and isolation brought her closer to them than she'd ever been with anyone else.

And then it all went to hell.

after the infection. Early on, Annie legitimately seemed unmoved by the horrors, but this was just a facade. Brutally efficient, she did exactly as ordered and assisted in the cover up because that was her job and they were going to do this right, but her resolve started to fall apart right around the time it all went critical and her father seemingly disappeared entirely. When the military dissolved, she took off with Reiner and Bertolt before becoming separated from them.

Survived on her own for an unfortunately violent, dark period before eventually crossing paths with people from the compound. She may or may not have been planning on raiding the place when she realized just who had taken up residence. (Spoilers: she was.) She settles down because it's where Reiner and Bertolt happen to be.

role within the compound. Apparent compound slacker punctuated by bursts of alarming productivity and sheer badassery. Does exactly enough of day-to-day work to be considered pulling her own weight, though she is incredibly proactive where combat might be involved.

survival pros. Expert combatant and ridiculously physically proficient. Doesn't hesitate in a fight and has significant tactical experience. Knows how to rig traps, IEDs, and is experienced in urban warfare. Legitimately the chick you want between you and the zombies when things go south.

survival cons. Poor communicator that has difficulty in a team environment, known for her tendency to operate independently without warning other people. Chronic liar. Downplays her own capabilities compulsively. Slowly losing her grip as the horror of what she'd been a part of crushes her. Inevitably going to snap.

extra. Apparently does not understand how to make friends. Actually rather incredibly awkward. Claims she was a security guard and sort of isn't lying. Eventually going to break down laughing hysterically one day.
