Appearance:
Enter one tall and lanky blonde, quarter-Asian boy.
He's ridiculously tall, towering over his own father (6'5") at 6'7", something that is courtesy of the combined genes of two height-gifted parents. Unfortunately, he didn't manage to inherit his mother's grace, and is quite the clumsy dork most of the time. It's the curse that people with long limbs have to deal with. He doesn't entirely resemble an Oriental person, since he only got a quarter of that blood from his mom's side, and only his eyes really reflect the fact. They're tilted at the edges, and almond-shaped, with rather long lashes adorning the rims. The color however, is entirely his dad's fault. A dark mahogany that's tinted more red than brown, they tend to flash a vivid crimson if he's mad, a quirk that freaks out many around him. He tends to keep his face an emotionless mask, so as to prevent anyone reading his emotions and thoughts on the outside. Rarely does the boy smile, and no one's seen him cry or show any signs of sadness since his toddler days.

Erik's hair is rather an interesting feature. It started out as a dark, almost black brown, then lightened up over the years to a dusty straw-color, then pale gold, and finally, the near silver-blonde that it is today. It's not obvious at first, the transitions, but if you flip up the outer layer of his hair and look at the roots, you can definitely see the clear lines where the strands went from dark to light. It's naturally straight, and he has a habit of spiking up the center so that it forms a sort of half-mohawk. As far as clothing style goes, he'll wear whatever's on hand. He was raised in a nomadic setting, where what you wore day-to-day was of little consequence compared to the other issues of life. So sometimes you'll see him dressed up 'smart-like', but most of the time you'll probably find him in some casual throw-together.

Personality:
Thankfully, he never got his mom's bad habit of looking on the downer-side of things. But neither is he an optimist who sees everything as perfect and is happy all the time. No, he's far from that. He's a realist; what he sees is what he takes for the cold-hard facts, and it's those that he uses to base his judgments/actions on. He has a particular dislike for daydreamers and idealists, who think they can go around trying to create their own utopia where everyone lives together in peace and harmony and happiness. Yeah.....no. The boy's temper's not the best to begin with, and it only grows shorter when he meets dunce-heads like those. By now he's learned how to keep a lid on his bouts of anger, but once in a while, he'll slip up and blow his top. And when he does, it's not gonna be pretty for anyone in his near vicinity. He's got his father's taste for blood, and twisted way of thought. Oh, and he's a bit of a sadist as well.

However, he does have a nice streak as well. He won't voluntarily help anyone who's getting punished for what they deserved, but he's not an advocate of meaningless violence either (something that seems to go out the door when he snaps though...). Should he see someone being attacked for a crime they didn't commit - and if he's feeling in the helpful mood at the time - he'll step in on the victim's behalf. Also, Erik has a soft spot towards animals and babies. Why the last one? He's not too sure himself. He just finds them fascinating is all. Naturally curious, he's easy
