Eric Smith

Eric is a young human Cleric of Cyric. He is played by Matt.

Appearance
Eric is a young man age 19 that stands just under 6'. He has curly dark brown hair that comes to just above his shoulders, and brown eyes. Coming in at 170 lbs, he is somewhat slim for his height. He is a handsome youth, though not nearly as handsome as he seems to think.

Personality
Eric would be considered narcissistic. He is extremely selfish and has an inflated opinion of himself. He has trouble understanding or even considering the fact that others tend not to view him as he views himself. Some would think that being a Cleric of Cyric is what makes him quick to take a life, but it is in fact his own selfishness. Killing someone who either opposes him or is in his way is simply easier than negotiating. He is not blood thirsty, he simply has no problem with taking a life if it is easier than other alternatives.

His inflated opinion of himself can sometimes get him into trouble, as he will sometimes try to accomplish things on his own that are beyond his ability. It is rare for Eric to ask for help, though he has been coming to terms with needing help sometimes, at least from his companion.

Because of his narcissism, Eric hates to be made a fool of, and will hold a grudge for a ridiculous amount of time. Though not usually bloodthirsty, if he feels he has been slighted in some way, he will seek revenge in either killing or some other form of long term torment for the one he feels has slighted him.

Despite all this Eric does appreciate his friends, and will stick up for them. He will also treat those he considers useful with more consideration rather than disregarding them. He tends to get bored sometimes and will intentionally throw a little chaos into the mix if possible to make things interesting again.

Background
Eric grew up in Mulmaster, under the tutelage of the Church of Cyric. He does not know his parents. At this time Eric has not shared any of his past with his companion, including the reason for his punishment.

Before Wiki
After being forced to join the group Eric accompanied them to an underground tomb near the town of Elmwood. Here they found a dead body which Eric cast speak with dead on. After some questioning it was found out that she was killed by three werewolves named Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. After saving Elmwood from Ovid, Eric followed the group back to Mulmaster to try and find Abednego. During some investigating a man named Greg Peck held a knife to Cirras' throat. This act put him on Erics' shit list and Eric plans to take revenge if he can. Shortly after, Abednego was found in an underground temple with two other powerful beings of some kind. Eric escaped with the group through the Astral Plane while Lorelei stayed behind to blow up the temple with all the bad guys still inside. The group emerged in Phlan. While here waiting on word about what had become of the city of Mulmaster Eric helped the group to clear out a library and plan an election party. After the party Eric was turned down and robbed by a prostitute that he tried to get a freebie from. Shortly after these events word arrived that Mulmaster had suffered a large explosion underground, resulting in a volcano in the middle of the city. At this point, rather than continuing on with the group Eric returned to his home city to help his Church in some way.

Rynn
Eragyn Abd-al N'esr gave Rynn the charge of Eric in Mulmaster. Though resentful at first Eric has grown to respect Rynn, and for a while he was the only one Eric would listen to. Eric considers Rynn to be the leader of the group and will usually listen to him.

Sebastian
Another, more recent member of the group, Eric considers Sebastian to be highly amusing. Eric finds his antics to be right in line with his general inclination to introduce a little chaos into a situation. Eric likes Sebastian very much. Whereas Eric follows Rynn due to orders and a growing respect, he will many times follow along with Sebastian just to make things interesting.

King Casimir Bütthole
A former member of the gorup, Eric had a hard time getting a handle on Casimir. He didn't necessarily dislike Casimir, he was just confused by him.

Eragyn Abd-al N'esr
Eragyn Abd-al N'esr Is a member of the Church of Cyric. She is the one who sent Eric off with the group for his punishment. Eric answers directly to her more often than not when taking orders from his church.
