Erik

Erik, also known as Letters, is the fan favorite of Survivor: Halmahera. He later appeared on Survivor: All-Stars and Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains.
Erik made an impression early-on as being a master of the strategic, social, and physical aspects of the game. Regardless, Letters used these attributes to his advantage, offering opportunities and proposals to players on all sides, while holding the promise of being a perfect shield. Late in the game, he went on an immunity run, making it appear as though he might win his way to the end, but fell twenty seconds short of a pivotal immunity at the final four.
==Profile==
===Survivor: Halmahera===
Name: Erik (24)
Pronouns: He/Him/His​​
Current Residence: USA, EST.
Personal Claim to Fame: Jack of all trades, master of none, but oftentimes better than master of one. About to sound super elitist here, but I’m good at everything. Cocky eh? No. Remember my first word? Capable. We are all capable, it’s a matter if you want to take the time to look up the technique or strategy, practice and cement it into your mind; and ultimately utilize that to your advantage in life. I play and write music, I study music education, I dabble in graphic design to name a few things. I am the best right-hand-man anyone will ever come across.
Hobbies: Learning. I’m a sucker for soaking up all of the knowledge I’m capable of obtaining in whatever subject that may pertain to. I read a lot, study a lot of things, watch a lot of documentaries / tv in general, play a lot of games.
Pet Peeves: Ignorance. I can’t stand people who are self absorbed and un self aware. It takes literally two seconds to take a step back and think about the world as a whole and the weight that your decision will bare before making that decision. I have little time for people who care too much about appearances or self fulfillment when this world never advances from greed.
3 Words to Describe You: Capable, Empathetic, Manipulative. 😈 A combination that makes me a giant target, yet charmful and powerful at the same time in this game.
Favorite Season of Survivor:
Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: Christian if were being completely honest and I don’t think that’s a stretch.
What’s your strategy coming into the season? Play ball. Hopefully play a somewhat more UTR game until merge happens but I know that’s never gonna happen with my personality. I’ll emerge as a threat but enough people will take the risk and fall for the charm as they keep me on their side for bigger plays down the road only for me to swoop in and take them out before they take me out.

If you could describe yourself in three words, what would they be? Capable, Empathetic, Manipulative. 😈 A combination that makes me a giant target, yet charmful and powerful at the same time in this game. Yes, I used the same three words as last time don’t @ me.
Why do you think you were asked to participate in this All-Star season? Do you feel deserving of the title? Do you feel as though you’ll feel outclassed by the high-caliber of the cast, or belong among Infivivor’s best? Let’s think about it. When I got to the jury, there were people saying I should win 8-0 in a 7 person jury. I thought I played great but I truly had no fucking clue how much everybody loved me and my Halmahera game until I was a spectator. I was probably asked to be on All Stars because I avoided going to tribal on my original tribe, I had the record for most challenges won (until fucking James omg), I helped an ally make a correct idol play, and then myself later down the road on someone else. I was in the minority of 3 at final 8, and managed to help all 3 of us make final 6, and two thirds of us in the final 4. I dominated the game socially, physically, and strategically; only being outplayed by 20 seconds to my number one ally. (Love you Bruno) ❤️ Do I feel like an all-star? Yes, read my parchment at the final 4 vote; (king king heart heart jesus the real winner of Halmahera) Outclassed? No. I outclass everybody else. #sorrynotsorry
What do you think went wrong last season, so that you weren’t successful in winning the season? How are you planning to improve upon these flaws? Uhhhhh, I didn’t know my flags and I wasn’t fast enough. Study my ass off in everything, duh.
What’s your strategy coming into the season? Play ball. Hopefully play a somewhat more UTR game until merge happens but I know that’s never gonna happen with my personality and now my fucking legacy. I’ll emerge as a threat but enough people will take the risk and fall for the charm as they keep me on their side for bigger plays down the road only for me to swoop in and take them out before they take me out! That’s the plan, always. Hunt or be hunted.
Is there anyone you’re particularly looking forward to seeing on the season? Is there anyone you’re particularly dreading seeing on the season? Do you think feuds and partnerships from original seasons will carry-over? I’m excited to see everybody to be honest. I’m so nervous as to see how many people approach me, and how they approach me. I’m excited to see all of the Halmahera peeps the most tho, let’s be honest. Yes and no, just depends on players to be honest.
Do you think your reputation will help or hinder your game, and why? Hinder. I’m fucked. But I think I just need to spin it on the fact that I’m a major shield early on an make deep connections. Pretty much my only hope otherwise I’ll be getting voted tribal after tribal.
