Personality
Erwin was a complex character, who was always calm, composed, and serious. He always planned for the future and what he could do for the betterment of humanity. He had very sharp instincts and was the first to realize that there was a spy in the Survey Corps.
Erwin had a stoic mind and treated all news whether good or bad equally. His absolute goal was to have the upper hand on the Titans and remove the fear of the Titans from humanity and to achieve this goal he was ready to sacrifice anything, even his life.
Erwin Also seems a bit selfish as he is reluctant to fight the beast titan as he wants to discover the secrets in Eren’s basement and wants to prove his father’s theory right and alleviate the guilt he has for his father’s death.
