Hiltraud Sokolov

Basic Info

Name: Hiltraud Sokolov
Nickname: Hil, Soko, Titan Face (not a prefered name but she will respond to it)
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Sexuality: Bi
Personality: Hiltraud is a selfless and loyal individual. If she were asked to lay down her life for another, she would not hesitate. A very reliable person, she will be there when you need her. Having had to compete for most her life, Hil is determined and sometimes even relentless, this can cause arguments. Her courage is borderline crazy/ discomforting. In the absence of her courage, when she is fearful, she masks her fear with poorly made jokes or one-liners. Despite most these characteristic, she is a huge goofball and for her to be serious is quite rare. Hil is one to speak her mind which makes her quite the flirt. If she isn’t joking or discussing battle plans, she is hitting on you. But don’t worry, most of the time it is meaningless. Due to her gruesome facial scarring, she can be paranoid or self conscious. To hide this discomfort she makes jokes too. A social preference of hers is to eat alone but other than that, she loves people! An easy comparator for her personality would be that of an over-energetic puppy. If she were to be in an unstable mood, she will refuse teamwork and go solo which is her form of recklessness.

Appearance: Hiltraud has a very sturdy build, she practically traded in her agility for muscles. She has bold/ strong facial features which can add to her intimidating appearance. Her facial scar is on the left side of her face, starting at the corner of her mouth and ending at her eyebrow. Through this scar you can see her teeth and part of her gums which earned her her ‘Titan Face’ nickname. On the scarred side of her face, she only has half of her iris and the eyebrow has a little nick out of it. Her scar adds a creepy, permanent smile to half her face. On occasion saliva can fall from these holes, which she just wipes up with a handkerchief. Hil’s hair is cut short for the most part except for the two parts that make her pony tails, these parts end just above her chest.

Character Information

Likes: One of her most favourite things to do is swim. She finds it a good exercise for building up muscles and considers it therapeutic. Hiltraud is one for foods, sweet tea and bread with butter are her preferred foods. She loves a good brawl and will even join in on one even if it isn’t her fight to fight.
Dislikes: Being stared at is a big no-no for her. She finds it unsettling and insulting, so beware if she catches you. Even eye contact can be a problem. Crowds tie in with this dislike as they often involved lots of people and curious stares. They are also a bit overwhelming and can wear her out. Cowards are another dislike of hers. Showing cowardly behaviour around her will invoke an aggressive reaction.
Fears: Horses due to a prank gone wrong by her elder brothers. She will refuse to do anything around them or for them and will often ride in wagons if the squadron is being moved elsewhere. Hiltraud fears being useless, she strives to have purpose and without it she feels like nothing. Crowds are another fear of hers, but it is not as serious as the others. The reason is previously stated in her dislikes.
Motivations: A huge motivator of hers is her competitiveness or even her ambition. To her everything is a game to be beaten. Another motivator is her want to prove her family wrong, she wants to be better than what they say her worth is. Friends and squad members are another thing that keeps her going. Without them she would be lost.

Character History

Background: Russian/German descent (Father is Russian, Mother is German), and raised in a military family- she basically spent her childhood on cadet training grounds. Hiltraud would often help serve food and such since she was too young to train. She was raised with two older brothers and they were always competing to please their parents. There was no love between the siblings. They practically tormented her with harsh jokes and horrible names. So she had to learn to be tough since she was the "runt" in her family, but due to her roots she's fairly taller than most. Her brothers graduated top of their class and joined the military police.
When she was 13 she enrolled into cadets, as that's what her parents wanted. She wanted to be the best of the best so all she did was train- free time? Nope, she's training. One day during 3DMG training the wire snapped due to being faulty. When the wire backlashed it struck the left side of her face- tearing it up (I love characters with scars- sorry not sorry) it ripped up from the corner of her mouth to her eye. Her teeth were showing and her eye only had half of its iris left. The wound didn't heal too well. You can still see her teeth in the holes that didn't heal fully. If someone were to insult her she would stick her tongue through one of those holes in an insulting manner. She would eat in private though as food would often fall out through those holes. Hiltraud would always have a handkerchief in her belt to wipe her face off if any drool fell from the holes (this embarrasses her so much) She was nick named "Titan Face" or "TiF" for her scarring. Eventually at the age of 17 she graduates at 8th in her class- she had to stay back a year due to injuries. Hiltraud decided to join the Survey Corps as she felt that is where she belonged. At the choosing ceremony, her peers that also made it in the top 10 joined the Military Police and the rest joined the Garrison. She questioned her choice at the end of the night when she was the only one that stood in the clearing. Her parents disowned her for that because they believed that she should have joined the Military police like her brothers.
Eventually she ends up in squad that is jokingly called the Nymph squad. This squad is an all female one and is known for their humorous antics. (My friends have characters that are part of the squad and may join in later)
