Erik never really “fits” into any of the boxes people have tried to put him in. Sure, he’s a jack of all trades, but he’s more than that. He’s climbed mountains, been forced to cannibalism, hid in orc tunnels for weeks, translated ancient texts, the man’s always “been there.” Despite his many tribulations he still maintains his sardonic sense of humor. Erik’s always prepared, always ready, and able to rise to any challenge. He’s “already tried that once”, or “met someone from that city.”
