Affable - Eric is quick to try to make friends, a skill and habit he picked up on the road. Good humor and a positive reputation can drive off suspicion. Plus, being lonely all the time sucks.

History

Date of Birth
June 3
Place of Birth
West Virginia
"Michael Ericsson" is supposed to just be a queer guy who got booted out of his home partway through high school. He managed to work up enough money for a van at some point, which he says is "way cheaper and way more exciting than getting an apartment." Since then he's been traveling around mostly doing odd jobs for money, making friends, breaking hearts, that sort of thing.

In reality, Eric Kennedy is a monster hunter.

Born in West Virginia, he grew up in the same monster hunting organization as Gwendolyn Chase, his childhood sweetheart. He was trained to kill people - if you insist on calling them that - and that's just what he does.
