Ride with me and never look back! » appearance The most noticible trait about Erik happens to be his height, which is at the not to shabby range of 6'3". He has a athletic build, and hair with a light brown hue to it. His skin is pale, but not sickly, showing signs that he doesn't get out enough. His hair is also somewhat lengthy for a man, though, he tries to keep it trimmed. Some would make mention of his piercing blue eyes and their rather bright colorization. This is all accompanied by a rather permanent scowl, an expression which rarely fades. Clothing wise, Erik tends to wear the simple mix of a black sleeveless shirt, sometimes with a jacket over top, sometimes not. A pair of jeans considering the field of work he happens to be in, he needs maneuverability. Though, when appropriate, he certainly doesn't mind throwing on a suit. » personality Erik doesn't go out of his way to make friends, which can be seen by his demeanor towards most other individuals. He typically sees social interaction as a means to an end, whether its for setting up contacts, maybe getting some favors, or something else along those lines, very rarely opening up and making a true friend or ally. Beyond that, he has a very dark, sarcastic sense of humor, often throwing out witty one liners at the worst of situations. Behind the attitude, behind the smoke and mirrors, Erik is actually a very smart individual. He's capable of putting together plans, strategies, whatever is required of him when needed to do so. Though, he'd much rather sell his services to the highest bidder instead of help any particular group. He's also entirely capable of turning the more 'humane' side of himself off in combat, or his work. And more than willing to make the hard decisions, whether it be killing someone, or otherwise. He will go beyond the line of duty to finish a job he happens to be hired for. He follows his job as a mercenary with a very strict code, every job must be done to the fullest of his capabilities. He doesn't get involved with the clients, or the people on the other end of the job, as this would create a conflict of interest and potentially derail the job. » history From a very young age, the only interest Erik had was Zoids. He learned all he could, trying to get his training in the matter up to par with pilots only spoke of with respect. But his life was derailed as his mother fell ill, and it was up to him to pay for her medical care. At first, he'd take simple civillian jobs. Anything he could possibly do to get by. But this soon proved to be not enough to maintain the bills. Thus he decided to use the one thing he was capable of, to gain money.. He decided to start taking work as a mercenary. He would use an old Command Wolf he came across for the majority of the jobs, and a number of years went by. During this, he continued to pay for his mothers treatment, but the doctors efforts proved futile and she would die from her illness. Erik didn't really have time to experience his grief though, having been caught in his line of work to the point he rarely had time to live his life.. Almost exactly a year after his mothers death, Erik recklessly attacked a enemy base with a group of fellow mercenaries. This move would nearly lead to his death due to a well placed particle cannon shot. He would manage to get out of his Command Wolf on foot and enter into the base with some of his colleagues, where they took down the few inhabitants and left with their objective. During this job, Erik slipped away with a Slash Liger that the base had held, leaving his old Command Wolf behind.. Months would pass, and now Erik lived a nomadic lifestyle, traveling from location to location.. And that is where we begin. Character's Ticks Ride with me.. We're gonna change the world.

The zoid had aged far too long for his liking, and during this job, he sneak attacked the base of his enemy. Though their attempts to fight back with particle cannons left his Zoid in a shell of its former self. He still managed to get the job done, and his spoils? A stolen Slash Liger.
