PERSONALITY
Ericka is a pretty motherly person overall. She is kind and likes to take care of others. She'll often pick up after her friends and keep things tidy in the background without being noticed. She likes to keep things in order and doesn't expect recognition for it. One could say she is a little slow, but she is a smart girl. it takes her a little longer to catch on to certain things and she is quick to believe that other people tell her. This makes her oddly naive but knowledgeable depending on the subject. When it comes to guns and mechanics she's an ace. But when it comes to some social situations and more lewd things she can easily get lost. She does not like small enclosed spaces at all and actively avoids them. She doesn't have full on claustrophobia, but it's definitely close to it.

She likes people she can take care of. Those she doesn't do it on purpose, she tends to treat her peers like children and takes care of them. She doesn't mind picking up after others and making for everyone else is alright. It's something that can easily be misconstrued as nagging, so Ericka does her best not to be too overbearing. She doesn't know what she likes in terms of boys. She doesn't have a whole lot of experience in boys, but it is easy to see her fall for the more reckless types. Her caring and protective nature tend to mesh well with that kind of personality even if they find her annoying. Should she find someone that she likes, she'll be coy with them. She'll do her best to support that person from the background in hopes of being noticed by them. It is a recipe for heartbreak for sure.

Ironically, what she doesn't like are people that don't care for others, their feelings, or their well being. She feels as though empathy is what it means to be human and to be a hero. Those that reject that are cruel people and she dislikes them. While she could never really hate a person and tries to be friendly with everyone, she'll have to put far more effort into being kind to a person like that. For her friends, however, they get a friend for life. She will take care of them the best that she can and will try to include them in everything she does. She likes the idea of a friendship is an introduction to her happy family.

As far as school goes, Ericka is eager to learn. She is used to schooling and extra-curricular learning from her parents. She understands how a teacher must teach and how she must listen to a student. She'll take notes and prepare reference material for further learning in the classroom. She is happy to share her notes and work with others so that they can do well in the class. She knows it is important that a person learns in their own way, so she'll go out of her way to make that possible. As far as quirkless go, both of her parents lack a quirk. She doesn't see them as lesser people and actually loves both her parents very much.

She likes to rest and actually enjoys sleeping. She knows better than to oversleep or stay in bed too long, but she likes to nap when she can and she enjoys the feeling of being rested. She also likes to dress up and one of the biggest selling points for her being a hero was the ability to dress up in a costume. She enjoys trying on different outfits and seeing others in cute outfits. She also likes her guns since she grew up with them. She keeps good care of any in her possession and likes to clean and repair them. Ericka likes to cheer for sports and likes the outdoor ones especially. The idea of a player doing their best because of her cheers makes her feel very warm inside.

Of all her traits, the worst is her puns. She has a habit of making very bad pun style jokes akin to that of fathers. Bad wordplay and references are humorous to her and she feels little shame in making those types of jokes when others are around.

HISTORY

Ericka was born to a supportive and loving family. Their line of work, however, wasn't as innocent as their home life. It was a high-risk job that captured criminals for hire, well before quirks came into existence. Bounty Hunters rarely spoke or interacted with each other, but It was within this profession was where her parents met and birthed her.

Despite having a child, her parents did not stop working. They took turns staying home and raising Ericka while the other was out on a job. And with the growing popularity of quirks, they were keen on protecting themselves and their daughter from the new danger that appeared in the world. Likewise, newcomers to the job were frequently people whose quirks had manifested and were quickly used to try and obtain fortune. The competition became high and while her parents had enough to live the rest of their lives modestly, they were quickly competed out of the market. They, as two quirkless adults, just couldn't keep up with what villains could do. So they were left with a meager existence without the thrill of their work.

They did not hate the quirks, but the growing arms race between criminals and the people that stopped them that they were no longer a part of. And when Ericka's quirk manifested, they were excited. This was their chance to compete in the field of work they lost. In the young girl's downtime, she was trained and taught the things they knew in order to survive in their line of work. It wasn't to the point where she learned to kill, but to protect herself effectively. She was taught to use their weapons of choice as self-defense and how to effectively stay safe. After all, many people hired assassins to kill other assassins and their families out of revenge.

During this time, they quickly learned their daughter would do well in the kind of work they were so proficient at. She had a kind heart despite the kind of quirk that she had. She cared for others and liked to protect others, but not at the cost of an aggressor's life. Killing wasn't her way and teaching her to keep it nonlethal was important. With quirks becoming more and more prevalent a new profession entered the market. Heroes were what they were called and it was the perfect line of work for Ericka. So she was enrolled in the first generation of hero students at Yuuei.
