Face Claim/PB

Appearance:
Mikasa is a pretty girl with a body of a soldier. At first glance she is just a medium height, medium weight girl with just a pretty face to help her stand out, but upon closer inspection one would see her lithe muscles, proud posture, and a six-pack to boot. She was a soldier after all, made to keep her body in tip-top shape in order to keep up and successfully use the 3DMG. Her stance is soldier-like, straight back, heels together, and head held high, yet at times you'll find her hands on her hips or her hands fiddling with her scarf.
The girl is of Asian descent, the last of her kind where she is from. Her black hair is kept relatively short, both from Eren telling her to and because long hair is dangerous around the 3DMG. It's never styled but is well-kept and soft, no tangles ever really appearing in the ebony locks. Her eyes are dark as well, almost black in colour, and are calm even in the most stressful of situations. Her control over her emotions keeps her looking cool and collected which as a soldier fighting enormous titans, is a good thing. There is never really a smile on Mikasa's face, more of a mix between a frown and a neutral expression and not much else in between. She doesn't use make-up because of her profession so a kind of natural beauty is shown instead, with her ivory skin contrasting her black hair and eyes.
One thing you will always see Mikasa with is her red scarf, given to her by Eren when they were young. It's almost like her signature look and she would not take it off for the world. She feels most comfortable in her uniform, consisting of a short brown jacket with the Scouting Legion badges on it, a white button up shirt, white jeans, a dark brown sash, brown knee-high boots, and her harness. On pure habit she carries around her 3DMG, which is far from legal, in case titans happen to appear. Once comfortable in her new surroundings, she will wear a pair of dark skinny jeans, a loose button-up shirt, heeled boots,and her signature scarf. It will take her a while however in order to stop her from wearing her 3DMG.
Personality:
Mikasa is a relatively quiet girl, not one to say too much at one time. She is withdrawn and often doesn't show emotion after the death of her parents. But when around Eren and Armin she is deeply caring and protective like a mother, making sure the last of her 'family' stays safe. Once a very scared young girl, Mikasa grew up influenced by Eren's opinions and lifestyle. After he killed the men that murdered her parents, she learned that the world is very cruel and unforgiving and only the people who fought would survive. As a result she has a very dark outlook on life and refuses to back down when pushed into a corner. The words Eren taught her has made her strive to be the very best she can and become one of the best soldiers the world has ever seen.
Even with her strong sense of justice and knowing the difference between right and wrong, Mikasa is at times easily persuaded by Eren. She knows she cannot change his mind but will tell him to go down the path he deems as right. She will follow him no matter what and will go the nine yards to keep him safe and alive. She vowed to stand by him no matter what and if it landed him into trouble she'd be there to help as best as she possibly could. He is unaware of how much he influences her decisions, but she takes everything he says seriously and will make sure she does whatever he says. She is loyal to him until death, and will follow him no matter what.
Though Eren can easily change her mind about most things, Mikasa is a very level-headed girl. Not much can faze her anymore and she takes stressful situations head-on with a clear mind and calm composure. Even while thinking Eren is dead she will do what is best for the betterment of the group, knowing she had to keep her pain and grief to a minimum so she can help the innocents caught in the crossfire. But her protectiveness over Eren makes her do drastic things just to keep him alive. She will risk her very life for him, even going against fellow soldiers or single-handedly taking on titans for him. He is both her best strength and her biggest weakness.

Right Up to that Key Moment
History:
Mikasa was born in the farmlands of Wall Maria, her and her mother being the last of the Asian race. They lived a relatively peaceful early life, her father hunting food for them and her mother teaching her how to knit. She underwent a painful scarring ritual however, giving her the mark of her mother's clan by cutting deep into her skin. By simply living, Mikasa and her mother were highly valued targets for human traffickers, who sought them out to sell.
At nine years old, Mikasa became witness to the murder of her parents, when two traffickers attacked their house and kidnapped her. She was taken to another house not too far away, where she feared for her life and mourned her parents death. When all hope seemed lost, Eren arrived, who with his doctor father, discovered her parent's bodies while on their way to visit for a check-up. Eren quickly killed the two men with a small knife, after successfully tricking them into letting their guard down. However, he was unable to stop the third and ended up being strangled. Mikasa came to the hard realization that the world was cruel and merciless and gained the courage to kill the third man and saving Eren. He then gave her his scarf, trying to comfort her and make sure she was okay. When Eren's father arrived he was told of what happened and decided to take Mikasa in as one of his own, bringing her into the city of Wall Maria.
Soon Mikasa was living a normal life, playing and getting along with Eren and their new friend Armin. She became their protectors from bullies and made sure they didn't get into trouble as young boys often did. She did tell on Eren though for wanting to join the Scouting Legion, which his parents were far from happy of. But one day, Wall Maria was breached by titans and Mikasa found herself running for her life. Her and Eren quickly returned home only to see their house destroyed and their mother crushed by debris. Eren tried to lift the debris but she told Mikasa to take him away and make sure the both of them were safe. Soon after, a titan appeared, lifted the house and grabbed their mother, only to eat her in front of them. A soldier by the name of Hannes quickly took them to safety. Once on the ship they saw the Armoured Titan break another hole in the wall letting all the titans into Wall Maria.
They soon meet up with Armin in Wall Rose and all three decide to join the army in order to help re-take Wall Maria. Mikasa easily passed top of her class, showing far more skill than anyone had seen. They graduated and Mikasa was offered a spot in the King's Military Police, but she declined to join the Scouting Legion with Eren and Armin.
Key Moment:
Mikasa was taken in the middle of chapter forty nine, just after her and Eren find the Titan that ate their mother. Just after she thanks Eren for everything she is taken.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Roleplaying Shift
RP Sample:
Believe it or not, a calm silence woke Mikasa up with a start. Her eyes immediately darted around her surroundings which were completely foreign to her. Where was she, what happened to the titans, and more importantly, where was Eren? The young girl stood slowly, her hands gripped tightly to her blades. What was this place? It was so... peaceful. There was no sign of titans which scared her, wasn't she confronting the Smiling Titan with Eren? Her mind instantly told her that he was in trouble and he needed her more than ever. But she had no idea where he was, it was as if she was taken to a faraway place outside of even Wall Maria. There was no life outside of Wall Maria though, minus the titans. The human race hadn't lived outside of those walls for centuries, yet here she was in a strange new land.
After failing to recognize where she was, Mikasa decided it would be best to walk around and try to make sense of things or maybe even find a way back. She holstered her blades and took to the streets, which seemed so odd to her. She had never seen a world quite like this and frankly it was a bit too much to handle all at once. The houses weren't close together and there was grass everywhere, along with a road that seemed to be one big, black rock. She wondered where the horses were, where the walls were, and why there were large poles every few meters with wiring attached. As she walked she began to hear a low roaring which slowly got louder with every passing moment.
Out of pure instinct Mikasa grabbed her blades and pulled them out of the sheathes on her thighs, pointing them at the source of the noise. To her surprise a metal carriage sped along the path, no horse in front to pull it along. A loud roar suddenly erupted from it and the soldier squeezed down on the triggers, shooting out two piston-shot grapple-hooks. She then activated the reel system, causing her to shoot forward and up, avoiding the machine like she did a titan. With expert precision, she released the hooks to fire them again, this time attaching herself to a pole and gently descending down to safety. She didn't like it here and it was time to go.
Her eyes still focused on where the carriage had drove off, the girl didn't notice the two men approaching her. Only once they spoke did she whip around, her blades close to her body for protection. They were dressed in all black and seemed friendly enough, though she didn't trust them and said nothing. One gave her a smile and nodded his head in greeting before starting with a calm "hello". It became silent once more and Mikasa holstered her weapons, her eyes still on the men.
"Who are you?" She asked the men. They turned towards each other, exhanging glances, before nodding and turning back to her. "Hello miss, we are here to help you. There is quite a bit of explaining to do and we do not wish to keep you in the dark for any longer than we have to. We-" As they began once more, Mikasa quickly interjected with a calm "I need to find Eren.", cutting them off mid-sentence. The two again shifted their gazes to one another, uneasiness evident on their faces.
"Miss Ackerman, your days as a titan fighting soldier are over. You are safe now." At that, Mikasa knew something was wrong.
