Nick

Nick (ニック Nikku?), often formally referred to as Pastor Nick (ニック司祭 Nikku Shisai?), was a high standing, devoted member of the Order of the Walls, a religion that worships the Walls and considers them to be holy. Nick was a very tall and older looking man with noticeable wrinkles on his forehead and around his eyes, which have dark circles over them despite an overall pale tone to the rest of his skin. His hair was high up on his head and is parted to the left, with the sides and back being much shorter. He wore a black cassock with three golden colored bands near the top that has the symbols of the Walls, or three goddesses or saints, on them. Nick could be characterized by one word: extreme. Any attempt to interfere with the Walls is a sin and considered the worst kind of offense in his mind. He never hesitated to make his opinion known and was extremely quick to condemn anyone who disagreed with him. This is proven true at the trial of Eren Jaeger, where he loudly called for his execution and publicly argued with a merchant who suggested sealing the Walls. Any viewpoint besides his is considered horribly wrong. So great is his devotion to keeping the Wall Titans a secret, even the threat of death did not sway him. As a religious leader, Nick used his influence to oppose any modification of the Walls, be it permanently sealing the gates or even mounting cannons on the top. Though he claimed it was blasphemy for humans to "maim" the Wall, the real reason was to reduce the risk of workers discovering the Titans within during renovations. Nick is seen preaching in the streets of Shiganshina District shortly before the first appearance of the Colossal Titan.
