Thanks to his gemstone, whenever hurt severely, he will retreat to his gem through bursting out his physical form to more efficiently recover from the damage caused. However, his physical form would turn out unstable if his gemstone was damaged and he could be killed it if was shattered.

## History

Eric is knowingly born in June 27th, however the year is unknown since the planet he was created on is from a different solar system.

Eric was created from the powers of the Elder Magicians back in Red Reverie, through channeling their powers into his gemstone, he was given birth. Despite not being an animal, Eric would still age like one.

Eric lived peacefully in his planet until the age of 6, when war clashed between Red Reverie and a rival planet, Eric's friend, Kevin, who were from the rival planet rescued him midwar and took him in to the cares of his mother.

As the war progressed, the situation got even more chaotic and both the planets were blown up, but not before Eric and Kevin were sent to Earth by their remaining parents. They remained comatose until the age of 16 (Eric) and 17 (Kevin).

After waking up, Eric's memory was distorted and he barely remembered anything, all he could remember was the war and the image of his mother being murdered in front of him. The person who killed his mother was somewhat similar to Kevin, and that led to Eric's attempted murder at Kevin. After they talked things out, Eric figured out Kevin couldn't be the one who killed his mother, then both of them made peace.

Not longer than some months later, evil forces began to threaten Earth and Old Mobius City, Eric and Kevin fought together for years to keep the planet safe, forming an unbreakable bond with each other. However, due to personal problems between the two, they broke their friendship.

Eric now began the roam the continents by himself, looking for something new to his entertainment. In one of his adventures, he stumbled upon a myth: "The mount of those who never return". Intrigued by the challenge, Eric climbed it, just to fall into the gigantic pit that was hidden through bushes and trees on top of the mountain. Down there, he found out about monsterkind and then developed the power of DETERMINATION. Curious with his new powers, Eric began exploring every inch of his powers, until he stumbled upon the RESET button, unknowingly he pressed it, thus resetting the universe, all his progress since his fall was erased. Eric became even more and more driven by his curiosity, and started trying everything possible. But in one of his RESETs something went wrong.

Through multiple resets, the timeline began to corrupt itself, lots of files were modified and Eric was now a human. Since he was no longer a magical hedgehog, he lost his superspeed ability, but now he could integrate himself with his DETERMINATION, and so he did.

He reset 3 more times, on the third one, the friends he made on the past timelines were transported to a void-like alternate dimension, where he had to scavenge in search for them through his own memories, by combining his soul power with the energy from his friends to bring them back.

After going through so many timelines, Eric began having identity crises and trust issues, but his friends managed to pull him out of it.

4 months after rescuing everyone and making new friends along the way, a new threat began to propagate worries and despair to Eric's new town: Blossom Hills. The monster from a parallel dimension could psychically haunt its victims and kill them, snapping their bones and gouging their eyes into their skulls. Due to his trauma, Eric was one of its victims, however by using happy memories of his friends, he managed to escape twice, whilst the monster stopped targeting him due to its double failure, it now went after Max; Eric's younger brother. Through successfully haunting and killing Max, the monster enraged Eric, which led to him and his friends presumably ending the monster.

2 days later, an old friend of Eric and Bruno pops up in their house, the trio embraces each other. However, an evil entity possessed Nylverion's mind, forcing him to commit atrocities and steal his friends' powers. Later on, Nylverion became fully possessed by the creature, but Eric managed to free him from its hostage, leaving them to live their happy lives from there on.

Years later, Eric and his friends have grew older and were living normally since nothing bad happened since Nylverion's attack. But that didn't last long as Bête Noire soon showed up and started attacking the citizens of Blossom Hills. In their second encounter, Eric tried to access his control panel but accidently inserted a wrong command that transported him to 4 years into the past, staying stuck there while trying to find a way out with Kevin.

Both him and Kevin tried multiple ways of opening up a portal that would transfer him back to the present, however, with no success. With his desperation, Hawk Moth, an old foe, felt his strong negative emotions and sent an akuma to transform Eric in a villain. Kevin, for Hawk Moth's disgrace, saw the akuma coming and warned Eric before he could be akumatized. All of this was happening whilst Bête Noire was still on the offensive against Blossom Hills in the present.

When Eric remembered his phone, he called Eloah, who updated him about the situation and informing sadly that Nylverion had been killed. Filled with angst, dread and fury, the akuma came back and penetrated Eric's phone. Kevin, knowing what was coming, ran away as a light mask appeared along Eric's face. Hawk Moth manipulated Eric into transforming in a powerful villain; DimentiKrush, whose sole purpose was to steal people's life energy to go back to the present.

As Leaffy, Eric's kwami, realized what was going on, he instantly took the Leaf Miraculous and flied over to Kevin, who used it and transformed into a hero whose name is unknown for now. Eric, now akumatized in DimentiKrush, began his attack, taking out Nati, a cop, a random civilian and almost took out another civilian if Kevin didn't interfere. Seeing another person using HIS miraculous, Eric became even more enraged and briefly overpowered Kevin. However, with a cheap move, Kevin could purify his akuma and snap him out of the akumatization, fixing everything later with the "Restore" hability.

After investigating and assuming Eric was in the past, Frisk opened a gateway to the exact date Eric was in, creating a portal on the other side so Eric could go through, as he did, Kevin followed him, leaving him stuck in the present.

Eric was shocked and instantly asks Kevin why did he follow him, as something could prevent him from returning. As Kevin tries to explain himself, Eric pulls his knife to transport them to the time-travelling zone, but Frisk's menu area start to glitch, with Frisk apologizing. But before they could do anything, Bête has acknowledged their return, and jumps in for an attack, sending Eric away and jumping on Kevin, immobilizing him. When Eric had heturned, it was too late. Bête Noire had already successfully murdered Kevin, enraging Eric. Eric's hate begins to spread to the surroundings, leaving them in a dark red landscape. They fight and Bête takes the upper hand for a moment, cutting Eric's left eye, leaving a scar. Eric tries to understand Bête's true reasons, and she explains her story. Eric comprehends that none of that was Bête's original wanting, but she was made for a purpose and she was determined to fulfill it.

Then, the both of them continue to fight, eventually reaching a desert; the same desert that Eric fought Nylverion years ago. Bête takes this as an opportunity to tease Eric, claiming that he fought so hard to save his friend (Nylverion), and in the end, he couldn't even save himself, leaving Eric irate. His hate begins to grow further, darkening the color of his hair and his eyes. He then, levitates Bête and transfers his hate to her, as a form of punishment. However, this backfired, as part of Eric's magic got corrupted in the process, stunning him for a moment. The hate now begins to consume Betty, unleashing her true black beast form. She then advances to kill Eric, but ends up hitting Bruno instead. This unleashes a curse within Bruno that he had been keeping under control all those years, opening up an anti-magic fountain, starting to corrupt the forest, leaving Bruno under a trance. Eric wakes up and tries to awaken Bruno aswell, but as he has the realization that his magic is corrupted, his body begins to petrify slowly, incapacitating him. Ultra comes for the rescue, but is attacked aswell and has his magic corrupted, starting to petrify, just like Eric. Both of them get fully petrified after some time, being found by Eloah and Frisk, shocking the two.

Frisk later returns, and attempts to save Eric, with his efforts being in vain, only being able to awaken a small portion of magic in his eyes, but this was enough for Eric to access his mind freely again. He faces bad memories, being accused by his subconcious that he is the source of his self-worth problems. He then encounters another version of himself, apologizing for the damage he had done. Outside of his mind, his body begins to glow and he gets his magic back, getting unpetrified. By this time, the hate that had possessed Bête's body unattached itself from it, believing she was gone for good, but she wasn't. As Eric returns to help the others, he is intercepted by Bête and gets possessed by the latter.

The gang then brings him home, organizing a ritual to free his body from her. It works and Eric is sent into his subconcious once again, facing Bête one more time and using his healing magic to purify Bête, revealing her true identity: Amber Lightvale. After freeing himself from Bête's control, him and Amber get sent back to reality, with Amber remembering only now what happened during her time as "Betty", she leaves to find out what happened to her family, and the gang leaves to help the ones affected by the explosion of the anti-magic fountain, with Eric looking back and remembering his friends that died fighting to protect the planet, but smiles, knowing that the chaos is finally over, and they can finally rest in peace.
