War for Paradis

Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Eren Yeager was a young man of average height and muscular build. He once assumed the identity of Mr. Eren Kruger (クルーガーさん, Kurūgā-san).

He was noted to be quite charismatic and had a talent for delivering impassioned speeches. Eren was often unwittingly able to to persuade the mass of his listeners to sympathize with his point of view. Even Jean Kirstein, his bitter rival, had admitted this as he convinced over half a dozen recruits to consider joining the Survey Corps before the Battle of Trost.
It was shown that he suffered from some deep seated insecurities that was masked by his temper. He was often ready to blame himself and his incompetence whenever something went wrong, believing a course of action he took or failed to take was the reason for the disastrous results.
Initially, a defining feature of Eren was his desire to eradicate the Titans as he blamed them for the pain humanity experienced and also for the death of his mother. This changed after reading his father's books that revealed them to be humans where at this point he seemed to have let go of his hatred against them. In one case, he showed no signs of anger or unrest and instead calmly called the Titan an Eldian.
Over time, he matured and made remarkable progress in his analytical and tactical skills both in and outside of battle.

Unknown to him, he had an older half-brother by the name of Zeke Yeager who was born from his father's previous wife in Marley.
Powers and abilities
Eren Yeager was born as a human descendant of Eldia' (エルディア Erudia?) where he was one of the Subjects of Ymir (ユミルの民 Yumiru no Tami?). This meant that he had the genetic potential to be turned into a Titan (巨人 Kyojin?, lit. "Giant(s)") that were giant humanoids. In this state, he would be a mindless being who generally consumed humans or was directed by the intelligence of some the Nine Titans (九つの巨人 Kokonotsu no Kyojin?). For Eren, he remained largely unaware of this in his life and as such retained a relatively normal childhood. This was until the Walls were breached and the Titans attacked the city forcing him to be evacuated from his home. In the aftermath, he came to join the ranks of the military (軍事 Gunji?) in order to be able to fight Titans. Upon joining the 104th squad, he trained extensively in hand-to-hand combat where he scored top marks in this class with him being second only to Mikasa and Annie.
As a Descendant of Ymir, he had the potential to be turned into a Titan and could inherit the abilities of an intelligent Titan by consuming one with the power. Eren's power was first triggered in him by his father who came to use a Titan injection (巨人の注射 Kyojin no chūsha?) to forcibly trigger his transformation. In that moment, he was turned into a mindless Titan where Grisha had his son consume him in order to inherit the power of the Nine Titans that had been stolen by Eren's father. This led to him claiming the power of the Attack Titan (進撃の巨人 Shingeki no Kyojin?, also translated as Attacking Titan) which allowed Eren's mind to be restored to him and the power to return back to his human form. At first, the trauma of the incident was blocked from his memory and he had forgotten about this event. However, he retained the ability to transform into a Titan where his form was that of 15m titan with shoulder-length black hair, pointy ears, and a huge mouth. To trigger the transformation, he typically had to bite his hand that send a bolt of yellow electricity whereupon his Titan body began to form. Within the Titan body, he was placed within the nape of the neck that was also a vulnerable spot. Other abilities afforded to him was the ability to regenerate his body so long as his head remained undamaged.
From a serum, he gained the power to harden his Titan skin similar to the Female Titan. He was able to extend the hardened material outwards after extensive practice where he could dispel it from his body to help form over walls.
Unknown to Eren at first, he also inherited another power from his father which was that of the Founding Titan (始祖の巨人 Shiso no Kyojin?, also translated as Progenitor Titan. This was the leading power held by the Reiss family that were royals that ruled the city in the island of Paradis. Initially, he could not fully use this Titan's abilities which included a Scream (叫び Sakebi?) which could create and control other Titans. It also had the power to modify the memories and body compositions of the Subjects of Ymir though he lacked control over it due to not being of pure royal Eldian blood. An aspect of this power was that of the Coordinate (座標 Zahyō?) ability allowing for control over other Titans. The power of the Founder was said to had resulted in the past and future not existing to him as he experienced it all at once.
During the raid on Liberio, he also came to steal the power of the War Hammer Titan (戦鎚の巨人 Sentsui no Kyojin?) that was one of the Nine Titans and had been held by Marley.
After joining the military, he came to enlist in the ranks of the Survey Corps (調査兵団 Chōsa Heidan?).
