He is living proof that with enough dogged determination even the lowest orphan can reach for the stars. An inspiration to everyone in the Confederacy. Or so he likes to think. In practice, Erik is a young man with very little experience dealing with people his own age, and it shows. Most of his newfound classmates claim he is haughty, dismissive, and altogether full of himself, and such accusations are not without merit. He takes no small amount of pride in being the smartest person in the room at all times, and his tendency towards blunt criticism and bold declarations of his own intellectual superiority have rubbed many people the wrong way.[/indent] [sub][color=#CFB53B][b]Background Information[/b][/color][/sub] [indent]▪ Erik is born a nameless orphan on the fringes of the galactic frontier and fails to connect with pretty much anyone for the entirety of his childhood, burying himself in his studies, seeing it as the only way to scratch and claw his way out his position. ▪ Chances across (or is sought out by) Øystein Åkerfeldt after proving his super duper anime intelligence somehow. Probably graduated college at 12 or something. Is taken under the doctor's wing and subsequently becomes one of the most recognizable faces of the Confederacy. ▪ After years of being taught about the construction and technical properties of the Valkyries, Erik is sent into pilot training with no warning by his adoptive father. He likes to think it's because if he's going to be building the damned things, he might as well know how to use them. Who better? [s]Actually sent because the good doctor wants this boy to get out of the house and make some friends. You know how anime parents be.[/s] ▪ Fiercely holds on to the belief that he has no one to thank but himself for everything he has; can't admit he had as much luck as the blue bloods he likes to antagonize. Needs to prove himself to everyone around him. Teenage bullshit like that, you know how it is.[/indent] [h3]Attributes & Other Information[/h3][hr][sub][color=#CFB53B][b]Coordinator Type[/b][/color][/sub] [indent]Physical Coordinator[/indent] [sub][color=#CFB53B][b]Coordination Profile[/b][/color][/sub] [indent][b]Awareness[/b] | ■■■□□ [b]Composure[/b] | ■■■□□ [b]Endurance[/b] | ■■□□□ [b]Instinct[/b] | ■■□□□ [b]Intellect[/b] | ■■■■■ [/indent] [/hider]
