[tn]See post #5384205.[/tn]

In-game, she is portrayed with [[pink hair]] and [[blue eyes]], while wearing a [[peaked cap]], [[double-breasted]] two-tone [[military uniform]] with [[epaulettes]], and a [[black cape]]. She is also shown wielding a [[sword]]. Her rig is themed with the rest of Ironblood, with her five 28 cm twin gun mounts placed on animalistic rigs: one each to her side, one to her left, two her right.

h4. History
In real life, [i]Seydlitz[/i] was a one-off battlecruiser born out of Imperial Navy Department requests for more battlecruisers to match the [[Royal Navy]], with assistance from Admiral Alfred von [[Tirpitz (Azur Lane)|]]. In particular, [i]Seydlitz[/i] featured better armor and propulsion over her preceding battlecruisers.

She was commissioned in 1913, with her first crew that of [[Yorck (Azur Lane)|]]'s, having just been transferred to reserve.

She participated in many fleet actions throughout World War I, especially the battles of Dogger Bank and Jutland, where she survived severe damage that would have otherwise sunk her (which explains one of her skills that grants her temporary immunity from being sunk in a sortie). Later, she would have been part of the [[Operation Ten-Gou|Ten Go]]-style "suicidal sortie":[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_order_of_24_October_1918] of the German Navy's High Seas Fleet in late October 1918, but mutinies broke out that forced the cancellation of the sortie. A month later, the ship was interned in Scapa Flow with the rest of the High Seas Fleet and scuttled a year later to prevent them from being divvied up by the Allies.
