Appearance - Eric looks a few years older than his age , which was 19. He is a good looking young man; not overly tall but with the muscle mass he acquired playing several sports throughout most of his life. He has dark grey eyes, and brown hair. His hair has grown out from its last haircut, but it isn't long. He normally wears it with. He favours his letterman/varsity jacket; it's a thick burgendy and white jacket with 'Damontaque' stitched on the shoulder, and 'Panthers' emblazed across the back.
Personality - Eric hasn't changed much since his days on the high school hockey team. He's very much an average young man, he has a bright personality and seems like a refreshing shift from the masses of depressed vampires one tends to meet. That being said, he's open to bad days just like everyone else. He used to love practical jokes, but seems to have grown out of that. He's lost interest in playing sports, also, although he still enjoys watching them.
History -
Eric was a typical teenager in the last years of his mortal life. He had a near perfect life; parents who doted on him, the obligatory annoying little sister, a beautiful girlfriend, even a loyal dog. He did well in school, playing quarterback on his high school's football team and captain of their hockey team. In his senior year of high school, he received a sports scholarship to a prominent university. His girlfriend, Claire, even got into a university nearby, so they wouldn't be separated by as much space.
With such an ideal life, it was almost foreseeable that something bad would happen. But instead of something suburban, like his girlfriend cheating on him or his parents splitting up, vampires entered his life. And they were the ones who ultimately ended it.
Rebecca Damontaque was Eric's great, great, great-grandmother. She lived her vampiric life without tangling it in the lives of her mortal family, though she watched them closely. She lived in the States, where she met and fell in love with another vampire, named Foxworth Rosen. When Foxworth found his little sister, Lily Colwyn, was undead and well and living in Canada, he traveled to stay with her for an undetermined amount of time. Rebecca thought Fox had left her, and followed him, jealous over this 'other woman'. After several months Fox went into the sun, under circumstances that are still suspicious and uncertain. Lily decided she should tell Rebecca of her brother's dead, and when Rebecca learnt the news she was devastated. She fled to Ontario where she found her descendent, Eric.
Out of fear and loneliness, Rebecca turned Eric. Without introducing herself, without meeting him, without so much as a by-your-leave; simply ambushing him early in the evening. It was the night of his prom, and he was walking home to get ready to pick up his Claire. Once Eric was sired, Rebecca realized she didn't know what to do with a fledgling child, nor did she want to. She left Eric in the street and once more ran away from her pain.
Eric managed to stumble home, unaware of what had taken place. He laboured at showering and dressing, determined not to disappoint his girlfriend because of the mysterious pain he felt. He escaped from his well-wishing family and drove to pick up Claire. He somehow got through the endless picture-taking, and bundled Claire into his car. They were on the highway when Eric finally succumbed to the pain he had been suffering. He lost control of a car and rolled it into a ditch. The two of them were unscathed, but once they had escaped the wreckage Eric fed from Claire. He was frenzied with hunger, and didn't understand the instincts which made him tear open her throat. He was messy at it, and her blood spilled down onto her beautiful prom dress.
In the hospital, Eric was near-hysteria with what he had done. He couldn't believe it, and didn't know how or why he had bitten Claire. He didn't tell any of the doctors, afraid they would call the police. He told them that glass had driven into Claire's neck, and he had removed it. They left him in a quiet room while his parents came to pick him up.
It was at this point that Lily intervened. When Rebecca had left her home in a panic, Lily had followed her. When she caught up to Rebecca, all Lily could understand was that she had made a fledgling, and she was now going to the States. Lily let her go, hunting for the parentless fledgling left alone somewhere in the city. She finally found him at the hospital. Posing as his aunt, she convinced the nurse to release him to her custody. She explained to Eric what he was, and what had happened. She hatched a scheme to fool his parents into thinking him dead. She smuggled him into the morgue and instructed him to remain still and silent. At this point, the confused and frightened Eric did as he was told. When his parents arrived, Lily pretended to be a nurse. She consoled the Damontaques on the loss of their son, and had them identify Eric's body. She used her mind abilities to have a doctor sign his death certificate, then took the boy and left the province.
After several months, Eric slowly grew used to what he was. He was grateful to his adoptive mother, whom gave him a home and supplied him with everything he needed or wanted. He never forgot Claire, though. The guilt drove him into a state of apathetic depression, and he fell into a slumber which lasted for almost a year. When he awoke, he found Lily and one of his vampiric 'sisters' still nearby, taking care of him. He was able to cope with things much better after that break. He decided he wanted a change of scenery, and Lily went with him to live in New York. They were only there for another year when he wanted to strike out on his own, so Lily gave him the freedom to do so and eventually she moved to Canada once more.
Eric always thought that he'd meet up with Lily again in a few years, when she moved back to the States. However, one night she called and said she wouldn't be returning for a very long time. He quickly arrived at the city she was in, and discovered her the leader of a coven in Demaitre. He also discovered a brand new fledgling brother. He decided to stick around, at least for the time being. After Claire's death, He was secured into a Asylum. Eric has been there for the past couple of years, and then there was a massive all-around-war on earth. Which partly almost destroyed earth. There was hardly any survivors left, a couple of people were left. Eric was one of the survivors, unfortunately he had fed on them also.
