Calvi character guide

Calvi was a lean man in his late middle age. Being an officer holding high status, he was always seen well-groomed and wearing a unique uniform which featured a sash running diagonally from his right shoulder to his left waist, on top of the standard Marleyan tunic and shirt. He also wore four medals on his left chest, presumably indicating his position in the military hierarchy or past battle honors.

As an important leader of Marley's military force, Calvi was an authoritative figure to his subordinate officers, being able to demand answers from even Theo Magath, commander of the Eldian unit of the Marley army. Being Marleyan by heritage, he was proud of his country's glorious history against the Eldian Empire, but he had also shown distress towards Marley's weakening status in the modern age. He shared his subordinates' contempt of Eldians, although it was expressed with more subtlety. For example, when he approved Zeke Yeager's proposal to seize the Founding Titan again, he sarcastically remarked that his loyalty was not doubted because of the latter's betrayal of his parents in the Eldian Restorationists.

At the conclusion of the Marley Mid-East War, he presides over a meeting attended by Warchief Zeke Yeager, Commander Theo Magath, and other high-ranking officers of the Marley military. Citing the world's response to the recent developments of anti-Titan artillery, he becomes frustrated at how the world opinions favored the losing Mid-East Allied Forces, dimming the victory. He seeks opinions from Magath, who explains that Marley made a mistake for relying too much on the power of the Titans while neglecting the development of conventional weapons. As the result, the military technology of Marley is now being left behind from the rest of the world. General Calvi reluctantly agrees, lamenting how his great nation, which had defeated the Eldian devils in the past, has been reduced to such dismal state.
