Dan
CharacterDan is a merchant working under the Reeves Company in Trost District. He appears during the Royal Government arc as one of the two men escorting Dimo Reeves at the staged handover of Eren Yeager and Historia Reiss, where the Interior Military Police murder him alongside his boss.
Appearance
The manga grants Dan only fleeting panel time as one of the adult men in Dimo Reeves's employ, and no supplementary guidebook records his height, weight, or birthday.
Personality
His single scene leaves little room for characterization. Standing at Reeves's side through a covert exchange involving the military's most wanted captives suggests the boss trusted him with the company's most dangerous business.
History
Dan earns his living with the Reeves Company, the merchant enterprise headquartered in Trost District. When Dimo Reeves hands the captured Eren Yeager and Historia Reiss over to military police custody as part of a planned exchange, Dan is one of the two employees riding along. The exchange turns lethal: the arriving officers execute Reeves and both of his men on the spot before hauling the captives away.
His name carries a small piece of trivia, deriving from a Hebrew word tied to judgment.
