[b]Personality Summary:[/b]
Blunt, supportive, and to the point. Taking on his role, Erik is proficient in knowing how to talk and act around people from the commoners to the kings. All in support of the Ravenwood house that he owes his life to. He can be uplifting sometimes, even near philosophical, pairing a deep wisdom with a sharp intellect. He prefers to try to deescalate situations through words but is not afraid to put his military experience to use. 

In private, he is quiet, studious, and keeps to himself, often working on paperwork throughout the night managing both the Guild and his friend Roman Ravenwood. The oaf can get into strange situations sometimes but they will always have each other's back. His loyalty is unwavering but he's not afraid to call out the young lord when he disagrees or thinks the man is doing something stupid. You can always expect blunt honesty from the man.
