Basics
name: Royal Prince Erikur Orrin Khilkov of Rorik
meaning: One who has great strength
nicknames: Erik
age: 21 years old
family: King Gallus Leonid Khilkov (Father), Queen Lyra Merandil Khilkov (Mother, deceased), Princess Alessia Julienne Khilkov (elder sister, 23), Prince Mattius Reynauld Khilkov (younger brother, 16), Princess Ekaterina Khilkov (baby sister, deceased)
pets: His black Shire horse, Darya, who he frequently rides into battle.
heritage: Angardian
religion: Erikur believes in a single God as one entity- while he is not completely devout, he does like to attend religious services when he is home from his frequent excursions, and finds solace and comfort in his faith. He likes to believe that the horrible things he is often forced to do all serve a purpose, greater than that of his father's personal conquests. Erikur is frequently found with his eyes closed and head bowed, praying and asking for guidance, especially before battle.
job: Leader of the Rorik Royal Army, Prince of Angard
lives: Rorik, Angard
Physically
appearance: Strong, burly build. Erikur is tall in stature and carries himself with poise, hands often clasped together behind his back, head held high. He is toned and refined, muscular from battle, with jet black curls and striking green eyes, the most like his mother in appearance out of all his siblings.
scars: A long, deep but fleshed over gash running diagonally along his abdomen- from being sliced with a sword in battle. Various other wounds (I'll come back to this)
tattoos: None.
piercings: None.
dominant hand: Left.
Sexually & Romantically
sexuality: Heterosexual heteromantic
sex-life: Spending a majority of his time traveling with his soldiers, whether it be to battle or to the villages to check up on the citizens, Erikur does not have many an opportunity for sexual experiences. He has spent the night with only two women in his life- one being an old friend from childhood that he has since grown apart from, and the other being his previously betrothed, Jinessa (his father broke off the betrothal due to an assumed treachery from her family and they were exiled from the kingdom in an act of mercy, thanks to Erikur's mother)
turn ons: Erikur is quite partial to light eyes and a sense of humor -- something very hard to come by in Rorik. A kind disposition and an outgoing personality immediately captivate him.
turn offs: The women Erikur encounters are often cold and snooty, always with hands outstretched begging for more and more, nothing is ever enough. He finds judgemental, self-righteous types entirely unattractive.
relationship history: Erikur has been betrothed once and while it ended badly, he was wholly relieved. He abhors the idea of commiting himself to someone that he doesn't love wholeheartedly, which is why he has since made a deal with his father that as long as he is obedient and goes wherever the King dictates, he can avoid betrothal, at least long enough to find someone he can really love. He thought he was in love once, with a childhood friend, but his father found out and forbade him from ever seeing the young girl again. He was crushed, but has long since moved on.
love vs. lust: In many ways, he would prefer love, especially if he is to be committed to one person for life; but lust is often what plagues him. Lust for companionship, for a kindred soul.
thoughts on love: Erikur has recently realized he doesn't quite know what he believes love to be -- his parents were never much of an example. Moreover, he believes to love someone is to choose them; not have someone thrust at you and be expected to share your life, your innermost being, with them.
Socially
mindset: “Focus on the task at hand and never let your fear show, your men are depending on you."
view of self: Erikur is rather unsure of what he thinks about himself. He's ashamed of the things he's done, the men he has cut down in battle, the lands he has conquered under his father's command. He tries not to compromise his principles and never lose his morals, but in the life he leads, it's almost impossible not to go against what he believes in an effort to be obedient and follow orders. Erik avoids looking in mirrors at all costs, for fear he will not recognize who he sees, and suffers from frequent flashbacks and nightmares of battle -- he has a tendency to trail off in the middle of conversation, drawn back to the battlefield, struck by the sounds of clashing metal and the groans of wounded men. It's something that has continued to plague him for years.
attitude toward others: Erikur is a very compassionate, empathetic person. He often makes trips to the surrounding villages of Rorik in his leisure time, listening to the complaints and requests of the citizens, visiting with the orphanages and handing out charity to people in need. He is often a direct line of communication between the people of Angard and his father. Despite all of this, Erikur has a very playful disposition, especially when he is home and away from battle. He's very easy to befriend and is particularly outgoing and charming.
does he care at all?: Erikur feels heavily responsible for the needs of his men and the citizens of Angard alike- he takes it all into his hands and it weighs heavy on him, but he cares very much for his people and would do anything to ensure their needs are met. Because of this, people are very drawn to him and find him trustworthy and just -- he is very careful to maintain a good stance with the people in his kingdom and in his personal life.
fears: Erik is afraid that one day the memories of the horrible things he has been forced to do while finally overtake him, or he will succumb to the pressure from his father and become the ruthless, merciless man the king so desperately desires him to be. He's afraid of never being loved or loving back, that he is incapable of feeling such emotion, that he has lost that part of himself over the years.
bad habits: Forgets to tie up his horse when camping out for the night, eating before praying, always misplaces one boot and stumbles around looking for it for hours.
pet peeves: When Darya wanders off from a campsight after he forgets to secure her to a tree and he has to go out searching for her, when his men are late for trainings or get too drunk on nights off, Alessia's pet raven that crows far too loudly in the early hours of the morning.
nervous ticks: Runs hand through curls, bites the inside of his cheek, taps his boot impatiently.
commonly used words: My lady, pardon me
strengths: Skilled in battle, reads body language well, can command an entire army and keep them on task, knows how to motivate people and encourage others. Erik is very good at sympathizing with others and gaining their trust and favor, almost effortlessly.
faults: Tends to be others' needs before his own, which often leads to him not taking very good care of himself, forgetting to eat meals, etc. He's always so deep in his own head that his attention tends to drift and he has a hard time staying on task when he is not in battle. Erikur has a hard time opening up to people or showing emotion - his father has taught him that showing vulnerability makes you weak, and he cannot afford that.
Misc
hobbies: Drinking with his men after a particularly grueling battle, retreating to the castle library to read in the solitude and quiet, sketching little drawings here and there when he is having trouble focusing, riding Darya around the stables and getting fresh air.
skills: Erikur is good at keeping people on task, giving motivational, encouraging speeches, and he has fairly good intuition- he knows right off the bat whether or not to trust someone or whether they are cut out to be part of his army. He can pick apart a person's faults and strengths in seemingly one glance.
drinks/smokes: Erik occasionally enjoys a drink or two in social settings or celebrations and royal events -- otherwise, he likes to stay alert and make sure he is composed.
Favorites
favorite foods: Potato stew, rich with zesty broth and tender meat, hot and comforting on the cold snowy nights.
favorite drinks: Ale, water, and fruit juice- freshly squeezed from harvested snowberries.
favorite animal: Deer - they are gentle and harmless, beautiful and stoic. He dreads having to hunt them for their meat and pelt.
favorite scents: The smell of fresh snowberries boiling into syrup in the castle kitchens for special dessert pies, the musky but feminine floral scent of his mother's perfume, made from the oil of her favorite flowers.
favorite color: Gold -- Rorik is often cold and dreary, but the elegant golds strewn about the castle bring life to the palace.
favorite place(s): The palace stables - he loves visiting all the horses and giving them their pellets, brushing their fur and spending time with them. Erik spends most of his leisure time in the castle library, reading and gaining knowledge or just thinking, basking in the quiet. He isn't often awarded alone time, and he likes to take full advantage of it when he can.
