::Info::
Family: Unknown, only knows he's a Zimmer
Personality: Eric is as an enthusiastic little boy, as enthusiastic as one who doesn't have parents to care for him. He is easily scared, but tries to keep up a brave front, both for others and for his own benefit. He is also rather curious, and looks at the world outside his orphanage as new and unexplored territory. The stars are something that he has found fascinating, and would be ecstatic if he could visit them.
Strengths: Eric is a very bright young boy, able to digest information and formulate new ideas. He could read before he was taught to, by listening and watching the older children in a study group. He is also very enthusiastic and curious about new things.
Weakness: Although he pretends to be on his own, he has a strong fear of abandonment. He also has a fear of anything that looks like a prison, as well as the police who might take him back to be locked up again.
Likes: Icecream. Everybody likes icecream. And cake, particularly if it's chocolate. He also likes looking at the stars.
Dislikes: Police, orphangages/prisons.
Dream: Eric has always been fascinated by tales of the great explorers who left Europe to sail for the Americas, or of the astronaut's first landing on the moon. He wants to explore new places and learn new things, and possibly even become just like one of those great pioneers.
History: Eric was born to two parents under the name of Zimmer. He doesn't know what they did, only that they did alot of arguing while he was in the house, and he was almost always sent off to some school, or study group, or somewhere where they didn't have to deal with him. Then finally that fateful day came when he learned the meaning of divorce; his parents were leaving eachother and they were leaving him. At first he stayed with his mother, but within a few months, his mother disappeared The county decided his parents were unfit for raising him, and he was soon sent to an orphanage. But as time went on, he always remembered that his parents didn't want him, and had sent him away to be locked up.
For the next few years, he remained in the orphanage under an iron handed lady who took no nonsense from anyone. He grew to resent her, as she treated him just as his mother often had. Deciding that he could survive on his own, he escaped the orphanage, determined to start a new life.
