Childhood: Levi was born to Kuchel Ackerman, a prostitute who worked in the Underground and was impregnated by one of her clients. She raised Levi in the brothel where she received clients under the name 'Olympia'. When she worked, Levi often had to hide in the cupboard. She loved her son very much and when there was money she bought tea to drink with him. Levi found his mother very elegant. One day, when Levi is around 6, Kenny Ackermann, Kuchel's older brother, came to the Underground brothel to see her only to find that she has died of disease. In her room he found a young and emaciated Levi sitting in front of his mother's bed with her rotting corpse still in it. In a rare show of kindness, Kenny takes Levi under his wing and raises him. Levi, who doesn't know that Kenny is his uncle, suspects that he might be his father. He raised Levi as well as he could: teaching him knife skills, how to get along with people, and violent behavior. When Levi was ten, he tried to get back his mother's tea set from merchants that it had been pawned off to. The men refused and when Levi got angry they beat him up and taunted him. They argued about wether to traffic Levi and force him into prostitution. This had Levi awaken his inner power that he possessed as a member of the Ackerman family. In a show of rage he violently killed the men with his bare hands (tearing one's face off, ripping another's skull apart, etc) and showed particular manipulation and coldness with the last man, who he eventually threw into a chasm. After that, one day Levi started a fight which he won easily. At that moment, Kenny decided to leave him behind, satisfied that he had taught Levi the skills he needed to survive. Kenny had never thought of himself as a good father figure for his nephew and he had a duty to his own Ackerman liege, Uri Reiss, the true king and at the time carrier of the Founding Titan, who he wanted to serve and protect. Levi doesn't understand why he was abandoned again and spends his teenage years bitter about it, becoming a violent and cold criminal in the Underground. In a vulnerable moment, he drinks tea from his mother's retrieved tea set, but the handle breaks and to Levi's horror, the cup shatters. Since then he never holds cups by the handle anymore. A few years later, Levi eventually became acquainted with Farlan Church, who decided to test Levi's strength by having him fight a group of thugs. Farlan's plan was to see if Levi was worth recruiting into his group of thugs or not, and he was surprised to see Levi beat them all single-handedly. The two became friends and eventually started a gang together. After one of many heists pulled with their gang, Farlan gives their gang member Jan a larger cut for medicine for his leg injury. Levi, by now in his mid to late twenties, requested to know why Farlan had been giving Jan preferential treatment when they are interrupted by the arrival of a young girl at their hideout's doorstep. Seeing that she was being pursued, they scare off her pursuers and the girl, Isabel, reveals that she was trying to sneak up the Underground's stairs to get a bird up to the surface. Having seen the two of them perform heists using omni-directional mobility gear, she asks if she can become one of them. Levi agrees by saying she must first learn how to clean. After she is trained and sets the bird free, the trio is approached about a job. Their advance payment is the treatment of their crippled friend Jan, who has already been taken away to a surface clinic. Levi views the arrangement as their client taking a hostage, rather than offering payment, so their client (Lobov) sweetens the deal by saying if they succeed they will receive the right to live on the surface.</>

Relationships:

Erwin: Levi doesn’t allow anyone to get at his heart except Erwin. He is the only one Levi completely trusts, making him want to serve his Commander faithfully. Erwin is the person whom Levi considers his ‘chosen one’. They share a mutual and equal relationship. Levi doesn't mince words with Erwin and Erwin always encourages and appreciates Levi's input, even critique. Levi is always looking over his shoulder with everyone except Erwin. When a recruit tells Erwin that they find Levi intimidating, Erwin reassures them that there's nothing to be afraid of when it comes to Levi, showing that he knows a side of Levi that others don't. No matter what outsiders say about the relationship between him and Erwin, Levi never cares or plans to explain it. He thinks that even explaining it, no one could possibly understand. They share feelings that cannot be categorised under 'friendship'. Their hands touch a lot. They share a room and eat meals together. Levi is fiercely devoted to and protective of Erwin, and Erwin is quick to defend Levi and likes to spoil him when he can. For example, Erwin uses his blackmail over the MP to get Levi expensive tea and even offers to help him clean. Levi thinks that when he dies, as long as Erwin will live, it will be okay. They are very warm with each other. When alone, they often speak softly and openly. A world without Erwin would be a world without warmth for Levi, since the other man holds his heart.</> Kenny: Levi thinks for a while that Kenny might be his father, but Kenny only ever introduced himself as an acquaintance of Kuchel. Kenny is a cruel and sadistic lunatic, yet he raises Levi to the best of his ability to make sure he can survive on his own. Levi always strives to impress him. When Kenny abandons him after seeing that Levi is strong enough to take care of himself, Levi is devastated and feels abandoned. He grows to despise Kenny but deep inside still wants his approval.</> Kuchel: Levi had a loving relationship with his mother. He looked up to her and found her very elegant despite the poverty they lived in. He is very protective of her memory, even killing the merchants that her tea set was pawned off to to get it back.</> Farlan: Farlan and Levi were best friends. Farlan was the more responsible between the two, always trying to keep Levi's violent and volatile nature in line.</> Isabel: Isabel came to regard Levi as her 'big brother', even calling him that. Levi adored her liveliness and compassion and was very protective of her.</> Hange: Their relationship had the energy of squabbling siblings. Levi respects their skills and knowledge deeply, but doesn't refrain from calling out their weird and sometimes unsettling behaviour. Hange speaks very freely with him and they call each other names frequently.</> Mike: Mike was part of the team that apprehended Levi back in the Underground. He was openly sceptical about Levi's recruitment at first because of his criminal history, resulting in the two fighting and butting heads regularly. Over time, both men grew to respect each other immensely for their respective skills and role in the Survey Corps. Now they share a friendly rivalry, complementing each other's outstanding fighting skills and creating a formidable team when needed.</> </>
