Summary: Erik is rather open, not sticking to one philosophy or idea. He is also the artistic type, he loves to observe his surroundings, and will blot anything down on a piece of paper when the chance comes. He is also a book fanatic, reading whenever the chance comes as well. He can be imaginative, while other times he can remain blunt and uninteresting. He tend to keep quiet, and keep to himself. At times, curiosity can get the best of him; causing him to go off on some stupid adventure of sorts. He also has a tendency of refusing to follow orders from his elders, making him somewhat of a troublemaker. He is the type to hang around people silently to observe what they are like, before adapting to them. Making friends most difficult to find, or at least for him. He has an uncanny knack of adapting to the most awkward situations, as well.
As he can be serious the majority of the time, he does have his childish spazzy moments. Which can come out rather randomly, despite his 'mature' appearance.
History:
After born, Erik was sent off for adoption; being adopted by a family of noble wealth. He was raised with another child in the family, the actual child; who was a year older then him. As they grew up together, they became best friends; later resulting in a rivalry on the other kid's part. He fought and swore at Erik, for supposedly wanting to still the rightful heir to the family. Thus, Erik was stooped down onto a lower status; but his own choice. He cared not of family fortune or inheritance; he was more interested in free will, rather then a restricted life style. It was true, the family loved him over their actual son; for he was the more sensible and behaved individual. He wanted none of the attention, later bringing it up to his foster parents; that they should spend more time with their actual son then him.
They did as was suggested, giving Erik much more alone time a child of his age group should get. The rivalries of the two 'brothers' ceased, and they became friends again. Yet, in Erik's current age, as well as his adopted brother's age group; they were torn apart. Erik being the lesser of two nobles, often gets to wander about the cities, or stay at home and read in the gardens; or work on artistic talents. Where as his adopted brother was dragged off into noble diplomatic situations all to much. Since then Erik has been alone, not finding anyone really worth the time to open up to. Occasionally, he would leave the household and cause havoc on an adventure of sheer curiosity.
RP Sample:
In the midst of the cold hallways, that belonged to the Val'Saro estate; two of the young men from the household. One, Erik Val'Saro, the other; Alexander Val'Saro. Erik, unlike the true heir of the Val'Saro estate; was rather wise for his age. Perhaps it was all his well spent time alone, instead of causing trouble on his free time as his adopted brother had. Yes, despite carrying the name of the noble family, Erik indeed; was adopted. His previous family was unknown to both him, and his brother. Erik had learned of this fact, and treated it with at least some respect; while Alexander still dwelled on the thought that he was his true brother. Making it okay to pick on or tease whenever the occasion came about. It slightly irritated Erik, as it would anyone who had a right sided mind; but he learned to deal with the troublesome ordeal.
At the time being, Alexander was yipping on and on about some diplomatic occurrence the Noble's had came about recently; and how they didn't know how to solve it. Truthfully, Erik only halfway listened, picking up stupid tid bits on the matter. It was something so simple, yet they still couldn't figure the matter out for themselves. Why didn't this surprise him? Oh, maybe because these things came up all too often to dwell on. Such a shame, all their time was wasted on these things while they could get something better accomplished. "So..." The boy muttered on, Erik sighing and cutting him off. "Tell me later, Alex. I have something I need to attend to," He stated politely, to make up for his rude interruption. Alexander was going to argue, but gave up; as the well dressed young blond walked down the hallways went to god know only knows where.
