Erik is the son of Taranis, The Thunderer, yet he remains a curious anomaly in the divine hierarchy. Unlike the other demigods, he refuses to be identified as his father’s Exarch. He rejects the title and its accompanying authority, preferring to walk the Material Plane in his corporeal form, which takes the appearance of a burly human warrior with fair skin and braided blonde hair, clad in fur and rough leathers. Perhaps his worldly desires cannot be satisfied on any other plane in the Nine Realms.
Although Erik’s proclivities aren’t just limited to pleasures of the flesh, he especially delights in a hearty meal and a stiff drink, savoring transient amusements that his divine brethren might dismiss as crude or beneath them. Perhaps this love of the mortal world is what keeps Erik grounded to his corporeal form, in spite of the power his almighty father bestowed upon him. Whatever the reason, Erik is a fascinating figure, caught between two worlds but refusing to fully embrace either one.
