Jörg Kramer

is a wealthy merchant and the father of Mathias. He was formerly based in Quinta District, but relocates his family to their property in Fuerth District due to the fall of Wall Maria. Jörg appears in the light novel Attack on Titan: The Harsh Mistress of the City, Part 1.
== Appearance ==
Jörg appears to have a rounded face with a short, but bushy beard.
== Personality ==
While not outwardly cruel, Jörg views the world through a cost-benefit analysis. He is careful to keep the popular opinion of the labor classes in mind. If it is not practical for reasons of appearance, then he will forego his greedier impulses, but he does not feel guilty for having had them. When Quinta District is cut off and half its population left behind, what keeps him up at night are not the people trapped by the Titans so much as the art collection he could not take with him because it would look bad.
His son, Mathias Kramer, speculates that his father would never allow him to marry Rita Iglehaut because he is destined to become the next head of the household and would need to have a marriage that would bring influence or status. Jörg is a strict and uncompromising father who goes out of his way to keep his son in line, even going as far as having the military keep an eye out for him.
Jörg possesses a considerable amount of power as one of the wealthiest men from Quinta, but declines to use it if the cause is of no personal interest to him.
== Story ==
The morning after evacuating to Fuerth District, Jörg Kramer holds a meeting in his townhouse with important delegates from either the Fuerth merchant associations or the royal government. His son Mathias Kramer interrupts him to request a rescue party be dispatched to Quinta District. However, Jörg tells Mathias that organizing such a thing affects a lot of people, and is something beyond his influence, which Mathias does not believe. He tries to mollify his son, telling him that even if the Titans have breached Wall Maria, that does not mean that Quinta will fall.
When Mathias persists, Jörg tells him that he and his guests are discussing potential measures, but he refuses to share them with his son. Jörg scolds Mathias, for losing his composure and getting in the way. He is not entirely unsympathetic. Jörg is aware of how close Mathias is to Rita Iglehaut, who was left behind.
Later that evening, Jörg confides to Suzanne that he understands what Mathias is going through, and Jörg would go back if he could. Though he admits that people are more important than possessions, the real reason he would like to go back is that he left a portion of his treasured art collection behind and wishes that he could retrieve it. It is not the majority of his collection, he keeps that safe in the interior, but he would like the art he left behind for sentimental reasons.
