Description Series: Scorched Earth: an A:tLA fanfiction by (J. Idanian on fanfiction.net)

I've been beta-ing Zak's story for some time and, without a doubt, Reki is my favorite character (as Zak is very aware... ). His fault for creating a character for me to fangirl over. She is a tortured, not-entirely-stable warrior with a dark past, but her Badass Quotient is so high, even that doesn't stop her from often serving as the voice of sanity for the main cast.

I based Reki's design on the iconic portrait of the "Afghan Girl" that National Geographic featured on its June 1985 issue to give a face to the refugees who fled Afghanistan during the nine-year Soviet-Afghan War.

Character Theme: Sorrow in Desert from Hero [Composer: Tan Dun]

Why does he looks like he's going to slice Titan?

Oh wait, nobody knows Attack on Titan until 2013.

They're supposed to - she's more than half-crazy, though she tends to hide it well other wise by being drunk and/or snarky].

Yes - oftentimes, I use several references for a single pose, such as this one.
