Erik Ansgar Eld

Age: 23

Birthday: January 14th, 1993

Sign: Capricorn

Gemstone: Garnet

Blood Type: O

Fav. Food: Quinoa

Hated Food: Fish

School: Graduate

Hobbies:

Music: His job is literally, playing various instruments in the background of a radio station and making up jingles. He likes music, and routinely goes to public spaces to play dumber versions of classic tunes. Ever heard the hall of the mountain king on a synth? Get ready to.

Baking: He is a guy who just really likes making breads. All the breads. Not even to eat sometimes but gosh that aroma. It's relaxing to bake for him. He'll bake for you if you ask. Why does he like it? BECAUSE NO MATTER WHAT ITS A CHALLENGE BY GOD HE'S GONNA GET IT RIGHT EVERY TIME.

Virtues:

Emphatic: Saying what he means and means what he says. He's straighfoward and rather blunt at times, but direct to the heart of problems. Not to be confused with a lack of tact or empathy, he just doesn't hesitate to confront problems, preferring to take tasks and challenges head on. If he wants you to know something you will know it, and he will find a way to communicate with you as best as he's able.

Confident Not arrogance so much as knowing he is someone who does good work. He takes pride in his accomplishments and even when they're town down, he will remain happy to just have accomplished them. There is a silver lining in personal growth, and he relishes in new tasks and challenges, preferring to always become better and smarter.

Curious: Anytime there is something new to learn Erik is at the front of the line, wanting to see it, try it, test it, make it, work it. He has a goal to better himself as a person, and it is in part born of a love of exploration. New information is welcomed with him, even when it might prove him a bit wrong at times.

Positive Thinker: There is always a silver lining is a sort of driving nature for Erik. Sure, bad things happen but if you focus on them, you don't capture the bigger picture, or, the things that matter. There is no point in focusing so much on all the bad things happening in the world. Do what you can in your life, and do your best to better the lives of others.
Just why you should totally listen to Hall of the Mountain King on synth dude trust hm on this okay.

Flaws:

Unforgiving: Cross him once, shame on him. Cross him twice? No mercy. Erik is a fairly reasonable person he likes to think, but when crossed he tends to put a person in a box where he will treat them as if they have the proverbial plague. Bye Felicia.

Abrupt: Arrogance, over thinking, a temper- Erik has these qualities in minor aspect but together they provide the kindling for him reacting overly so to things he dislikes, upsetting, or alarming. He's the guy that when pushed to the brink will shout at a barista over his fat free latte. He's that guy.

Sarcastic: Yes now isn't that just ******** great isn't it Susan? Erik's sarcasm is born of ire. If he's being sarcastic or caustic, chances are he's pissed. And he's happy to let you know and oh yeah talk it out. Sure. Lets do that.

Worn down: Being a positive thinker is hard. It's something he has to actively work towards and at times, he just..can't. Happy.exe cannot be found. When emotional or mental exhaustion sets in Erik goes into apathetic slumps where he's not entirely expressive or able to do much. He devotes a lot of his energy into being what he thinks is ideal, even at the expense of his own limits.
