## Biography

### Early Life

Erik Johnson was born on April 5, 2079 and spent his early days incubation chamber. He spent most of his early childhood with Aleksander Johnson, the grandfather of Mark Johnson and his great grandfather. His great grandfather taught him many things, which accelerated his ability to learn things, resulting him to be above average intelligence. By his third birthday, he was handed back to his parents, who taught him many more things, including empathy and discipline. His childhood was average but unlike average children he developed extra features that further enhanced his capabilities.

### Learning how to take a life

As the tradition was with the Johnson clan, the male child must learn how to hunt and kill at the age of six, so as part of the initiation, Erik was given a knife and a Remington R700 by Mark. His target was a deer, which he had to kill. As he was inexperienced with a gun as a child he shot the deer, but missed the vitals. As the tradition required him to kill the prey, he waked towards the prey. The deer tried to make Erik not to kill it by making a scared face, and he hesitated and refused to kill it. His father, Mark, was furious and he pressured Erik to kill it, which Erik refused, until Mark had to force the knife with his son's hands on it and killed it. That traumatized Erik and he was forced to try again, until the fifth attempt he did it by himself, which hardened him. As he killed an Elk on his fifth attempt in the initiation, he was accepted and his father gave him a weapon of his own, a P227. This hardened his spirit and made him less "weak".

### Education

When Erik was 8 years old, he was given an option to either go to public school or attend a private school. He chose public school and he was a very bright student. His parents were gone a lot after his 9th birthday, leaving him to live with his great grandfather, who treated him like how he treated his grandson, or Erik's father. By the time he got to 6th grade, he beat the shit out of another student who was bullying him for being intelligent and was expelled from the school. His great grandfather didn't punish him, as it was right for him to get revenge when it required, but he sent Erik to a Military Boarding School to have him fit in. There Erik was being made fun of again, until he rose the ranks of the school by assaulting the bullies and bullying others, which got him in large amounts of trouble. He was unruly, formed his first gang and was uncontrollable until in 8th grade, his parents returned from active duty and looked him in the eyes and asked him, "Do you really want to continue on this path, Carl?" There, he discovered that what he was doing was unruly and despicable. His father finally became responsible and took Erik to church, where he was cleansed of his sins and became a more disciplined boy and behaved. He also became an expert marksman after he joined a hunting club called the Gadsden Gang, and was a senior member until it's disbandment in 2094.

### Initiation to Manhood

As the Johnson Clan required, all males of the Johnson clan are required to join the army to be considered a man. Erik, unlike his father at the age of 16 did not join the frontline army, but joined the reserves. This was still valid in Mark's eyes, but Aleksander did not accept it, instead made the boy take the Task Force 45 qualification course on survival, which was brutal and harsh. Erik failed a total of fifteen times, which his great grandfather punished him severely for, and at the sixteen time, he was forced to kill a Pooooolll prisoner who was armed with a gun, and this time he killed it without hesitation and that was when his grandfather hugged him for the first time.

### Assignment to Stryker 2-1

After the ordeal of the initiation, he was assigned to the 7th Battalion, 22nd Rangers Regiment. He was place in the unit, Stryker 2-1. At first, he was called Greenie or the FNG, until he gained respect by demonstrating his marksmanship. He first tasted combat during the short war against The Gay Tony Army (TGTA) in 2096, where he went in and killed many enemy soldiers. He was then tested to kill a prisoner of war, which ended up him being forced to kill the prisoner by his superior, Sgt Jackson Foley. He went on to the war and face a lot of trauma and guilt and ended up being the only man left from Stryker 2-1 in 2097 after his unit last stand in a LAV-IV Armored Personnel Carrier.

### Meeting Audrey “Mac” MacMillian

After the incident during the TGTA, he was transferred to the 21st Rangers Regiment and was promoted to Master Sergeant and had a name made for him, other than his name from being a Johnson. He went to the mess and met Corporal Audrey “Mac” MacMillian of the 21st Airborne Division. They became fast friends and combat buddies. Unfortunately they didn't see each other as much as one would think, as they had different combat operations. They still kept in touch with a radio phone during those operations to both relay information and to goof off with.

## Personality, Capabilities and more

### Personality and inherited abilities

Eric has both strengths and weaknesses from his parents. He is a calm and objectively neutralistic man, but will defend himself at any cost or getting revenge. He also has a hard time killing helpless opponents as he has ethics inherited from his mother.
