OVERALL PERSONALITY
A few words;; Commanding, aloof, powerful, & loyal
Eric is a strategist, always looking for those who would interfere or cement his own agenda. He forgets nothing, has seen all life, and has chosen to stay true to his own rules. Since Eric has observed human nature over the centuries, he knows humans very well and has learned how to survive by playing off the weaknesses of others. Hence his skills in reading other and in manipulation.
He expects to be obeyed when he gives orders. Despite not being in total rule, he always finds a way to come out on top and have his way one way or another, and he is slow to give his loyalty, but once given, he will stand up to his obligations.
Eric is a straight-forward, calculating yet loyal individual, and generally willing to absolve humans that aggravate him- unless they have grievously crossed him. He has a great capacity not only for loyalty, but affection (considering vampire nature) - he demonstrated this with his progeny Pam. Usually a very calm, methodical individual, Eric is more in control of his emotions than Bill, and rarely loses his temper. When pushed, however, he has shown a great capacity for violence. He is unconcerned about being viewed as "the bad guy" and sees it as a means to an end. Hence the brash nature and bold directness he governs himself with, and how he doesn’t like to waste time.. He is often secretive and can be somewhat of a trickster, a deviant of sorts, but is honest and direct. He is confident enough, that he doesn't think he needs to prove himself. Eric has a joy of living and a sense of humor uncommon for vampires. Eric knows what he wants and he knows how to get it, basically. He’s a very grounded and very confident, and he knows what he wants, all the time. However, in those rare instances when he doesn’t, you can bet he’s going to do anything and everything in his power to set things back straight, his way.
Eric also has a softer side, one that loves deeply when committed, as shown by his centuries old friendship with his maker, Godric. Eric also has a sense of humor. Loyalty is something Eric values. Those who pledge their allegiance to him are held bound to his moral code. Loves a good fight and enjoys the spoils. He has a love for life and did not want it to end from a battle wound. His love for and vanity over his hair is another endearing quality. He’s not all bad, but it just takes some work to see through deeper into him.

FAMILY
Pam Ravenscroft/150/Progeny
Godric/2000+/maker
HOME Town Exact Location Unknown- North Scandinavia, Sweden, around the North Sea
OVERALL HISTORY
Born in Northern Scandinavia, Sweden during the Viking Age, where later he became a vampire in 930.
Eric was a Viking, and used to play near the North Sea as a child. His father was a Viking chieftain- a Jarl back in the day- and although his father and mother wished Eric would chose a wife; he was more interested in enjoying the pleasures of unmarried life. One night while Eric was having sex with a servant, werewolves attacked their home killing his mother and baby sister. A werewolf managed to overpower his father, taking his crown. It was given to a cloaked figure that walked off into the snowy night leaving Eric to tend to his dying father. Before Eric's father dies, he declared him king/Jarl and makes him promise to avenge his family.
Transition;;
Eric is wounded somewhere in Scandinavia and against his wishes his Viking companions decide to stay with him. They tell Eric tales of the glory and women waiting for him in Valhalla, The Warrior’s Paradise in Nordic beliefs. During the night, an unseen force murders his comrades. A mysterious young, tattooed man appears and introduces himself as "Death" to the dying Eric. Having seen Eric's strength on the battlefield, this boy, the 1000 years old vampire, Godric, offers him immortality through life as a vampire. When Eric asks what he gets out of it, Godric says "Life". With his own lust for life that he is renowned for, and the Viking Warrior becomes a vampire progeny.
During World War II, Godric and Eric posed as Nazi Schutzstaffel agents in order to infiltrate "Operation werewolf". In 1945 they tracked a werewolf down to a house in Augsburg, Germany. The werewolf attacked and killed an American soldier before turning on Eric, but Godric stabbed her in the arm with a bayonet, pinning her to the wall. Eric demanded to know who her master was, but the werewolf said she would only tell them if Eric let her drink some of his blood. Godric was deeply offended by the idea, as vampire blood is sacred. Eric, however, did not care. He bit himself, and allowed the werewolf to feed from his wrist. She then revealed that her master is a vampire. Eric was shocked, and the werewolf took advantage of his distraction pushing Eric to the ground and attempted to stake him. Godric intervened, and snapped the werewolf's neck. Godric lectured his progeny about maintaining control of his emotions, before promising to hunt the blasphemous vampire down. Shortly after this confrontation, Eric and Godric parted ways, and would not meet again for many decades.
Eric has acquired the position of Sheriff of Area 5 because of his age, his cunning personality and his ruthlessness. Eric has one vampire progeny named Pam who, like him, is incredibly loyal. Together they currently operate and own Fangtasia, a vamp nightclub in Shreveport, Louisiana.
