Team Darius was a small branch in the Survey Corps, appearing in the manga and anime Attack on Titan. They are led by the Team Leader Darius Baer-Varbrun and were presumably a newer division in the Survey Corps.
Duty[]
Just like all other Teams and squads in the Survey Corps, Team Darius was dedicated on repossessing the lost land of Wall Maria after the breach caused by the Colossal and Armored Titan.
They were a part of the Scout Support Teams in the Long-Distance Enemy Scouting Formation. Meaning that they were part of the main defense for the Survey Corps’ cart convoy during expeditions, implying that they had to protect the formation’s interior whenever a Titan came to deep into the formation.
Qualities[]
Team Darius was presumably a newer branch and a smaller addition to the Survey Corps, having only 4 soldiers in total who apart from the leader were fairly young in age. But the soldiers appeared to have moderately good skill over the ODM gear and were capable of coming up with a good strategy to take down the more dangerous Titans. The fact that they fought as one of the support teams, shows that they were considered as a helpful influence that acted as the inner armor of the formation.
Story[]
Background[]
Team Darius was formed when Darius Baer-Varbrun was assigned as a Team Leader and could then lead his own small contingent of soldiers. It is unknown if Team Darius assisted in different Survey Corps expeditions before they partook in the 57th one.
Female Titan arc[]
Team Darius departs together with all the other Survey Corps soldiers for the 57th expedition. Team Darius would be placed in the right flank relay squad which was close to the center of the Survey Corps’ formation.
Darius and his Team would be placed in the right flank relay squad which was close to the center of the Survey Corps’ formation.
Team Darius kept moving forward, until they heard of information that a mysterious Female-Type Titan has been exterminating the right flank and has started approaching the center of the formation. It got to the point until the Female Titan approached Darius and his Team, but he came up with a plan to take her down. Darius acts as bait for the Titan while he placed his soldiers in different parts of a remote town. He shoots signal flares at the Titan in order to distract it, when the Titan is successfully caught off guard for a moment, he then yells for his soldiers to attack her simultaneously, with each soldier trying to incapacitate the Titan. One going for her spine and the other two for her tendons, all in order to at the very least slow her down. The soldiers daringly launch at the Titan but are all caught off guard when the Female Titan suddenly jumps, staggering their attacks. The Titan crushes one of soldier underfoot and when the other one near her feat tries to escape, he is also killed by being kicked against a building. The remaining soldier’s wire is caught, making him unable to flee. Darius watches in horror as he sees his remaining comrade being brutally toyed with, The Female Titan having begun spinning the man’s wire causing his body to be bent in half from the extreme inertia. Darius can only look in terror as it’s happening. Now being the only member of the Team left, decides to rush out of the town. The Female Titan then let’s go of the man’s wire causing his corpse to fly far away into the sky.
Darius rushes out of the town, stating to himself that he has to give a report to the rest of the formation, but he is shocked when sees the Female Titan rushing towards him. The Titan forcefully kicks both him and his horse, killing them both straightaway while their corpses fly up in the air.
With all members now dead, Team Darius is officially disbanded.
