## History

### Early Years

Growing up in a magical family, Erik was the unfortunate target of many practical jokes from his relatives, who additionally acted immature enough that he was often forced to step in and dispel tension. He was home-schooled by his parents, with his Dad making up stories about love caves and reality-destroying spells before he travelled to New Zealand to attend Makutu Kura.

He learnt to play a wooden recorder, and purchased his wand from an Australian wand-maker; he cherished these possessions, but they were both secretly swapped out for ordinary sticks prior to Erik boarding the School Bus, leaving him to start the school year without the advantage of a wand.

### Attendance at Makutu Kura

Whilst on the bus, Erik befriended fellow Australian David Winfield. David and Erik had received wands from the same wandmaker, but when Erik produced his wand to show, his family's trick was revealed: a stick. He then went to show David his recorder, which was also a stick. Erik arrived at Makutu Kura feeling unhappy.

Erik and David decided to share a dormitory building, finding that they had it to themselves. Erik initially expressed interest in working with elements, largely to see if there was a way to make himself dryer, as he peculiarly kept falling into water or otherwise being soaked. One notable incident saw him dive into a creek in a fruitless attempt to save someone else from being pushed in.

Despite his mishaps, he enjoyed studying at Makutu Kura immensely, describing it as a respite from his outrageous family even if sometimes the other students reminded him of them. He abstained from coming home during any of the term breaks, and as the end of the year grew closer he wondered if he would be allowed to stay at school during the holidays; he ended up returning to Australia for Christmas in any case.

When Lucas Flint and Wyatt Samson began attending school, the former was placed into Erik's dormitory, and Erik quickly came to view him as bothersome but he attempted to stay amicable nonetheless. Eventually, Erik requested that he be placed in another dormitory, and Wyatt was happy to trade places, leaving Erik to share dormitory with David.

### Trivia

* The love cave and reality-destroying spell are both remnants of old pieces of canon from 2018.
	+ A secret cave would have existed on Codfish Island, which was accessible to students and known by them as the Love Cave. In the current version of the Minecraft World, there's an easter egg where players can accidentally discover a pitfall. At the bottom of the hole are signs reading "The Love Cave 2", and "Also you are trapped".
	+ Back when the school's campus was a castle, a major story element would have been Rochelle Qin abruptly destroying said castle. To avoid responsibility she would then have cast a memory-altering spell so powerful that even she forgot what happened, with the only people who remember the incident being Miller and *Cassandra*, who were standing behind her when she cast the spell.
