Harmonica

Simply put, Erich is a small person in a big world.

He may not seem it, but he is a good person at heart. Gotta keep that tough look tho.

Since his early days he had a sad nature, which never really left him.

People rarely mess with him because of his short temper. You can rarely see him helping others, but often only because it benefits him. There is an exception to this though. He has a wierd fascination with cats. Lately he wanders around the Grey Zone trying to help cats for God knows what reason.

## Backstory

> *" A Cruel Angel´s Thesis playing in the background "* - a Stereo from TESCO.

### Grassroots

Erich was born in a ran down house a couple of blocks away from the Grey Zone. As a child he used to watch Evangelion on his old CRT television (thats probably why he is obsessed with red and naked women). I guess it left a mark on his personality. When he wasnt watching Evangelion he was watching History channel and took a liking of the past, mainly World War 2, mainly Germany, if you havent noticed already. Because of Eva, he tried learning Japanese. He cant speak jack shit, but atleast it sounds cool.

Except watching television he used to help his mother around t he house a lot. Since they were quite poor he never really got any birthday presents. Although, when he was 10 he got a small kitten for christmas. He called it Hermann. Sadly the cat got ran over by some wierd drifting Toyota AE86 driven by some Mexicans. Some say Erich cried nonstop for 14 hours. I dunno tho.

He also never wore ordinary clothes. *" Fuck mainstream"* he once said*.* He took a liking of his mothers wardrobe. A young woman passing by on the street once called him a *" cute little girl. "* As a response he caved her skull in with a bowling ball. Yeeeeeeeaaah, not the best idea. Her husband came knocking on the door the next day. Erichs mom made a phone call and its Saul Goodman. (please get the reference, please please)

### Shit happens

He was 14 when his house caved down and almsot killed him and his mom. The only way from now on was the street. After a few days he found a friend Mika. They hit of pretty well, well sorta. He almost knocked her unconscious after being called her Wehraboo mate (he didnt like it). It left a scar on her left eyebrow. After that she started wearing a German M42 Stahlhelm. As an apology she gave him an iPad with some sad music innit.

Erich and Mika spent a lot of time doing wacky shit on the street together. They even made a friend Jebbediah. People call him a wierdo cuz hangs around kids and drives a van, but he looks chill to me. (hes chill I swear) Once the band even tried robbing a liquor store. Yeah, they failed. Thanks to Jebb they managed to run away. That fat dumbass who calls himself the store owner didnt even call the police. It still made Erich think about it and he took a break from robbing liquor stores for some time.

In this period of time, Mika was like a fucking jesus to Erich. She gave him food, water and during rainy days even shelter. Jebb was of huge help too, he sometimes drove them around, and showed them the ropes.

### Unemployed motherfucker (not like literally (like hes not fucking anyones mom))

Life was kinda shit on the street. You smell, your friends smell, your surroundings smell, you smell, everything fucking smells. Not the best place to be a child if Im honest. They had to do something to get out of this shithole, but what?

The answer is square the fuck up and hit a bank. Yeah, a bank. That will bring in some cheddar, am I right? Anyways, Mika took her familys herritage, a Machinen Gewehr 34 and a Karabiner 98 Kurz. Dont worry, her parents dont know that its missing to this day. Jebb has a van, so he was set to be the driver. Now they have their shit together so its time to hit it. What am I supposed to tell you, that they died? Of course they fucking did it! It didnt go all smooth tho. Jebb took a bullet for Erich. If it wasnt for him Erich would get domed. (headshot bro) This moment sealed their friendship, and a new gang was about to form.

### STARZ

Now that theyve had the capital, they formed a gang called BAD KATZ. But yeh, sorry mate, no happy endings. A group of Russian post-militia men called STARZ hit their squad, killed Jebb and fucked them up real bad. They even stole most of their fucking cheddar, I mean capital, whatever. Erich, laying on the ground in tearz swore *"* *I will conquer the motherfucking Grey Zone and end those motherfucking russians."* Yes, those are quotation marks. I know, he swears a lot for a 16 year old. This is the moment Erich became ~~Heisenberg~~ I mean depressed.

## Appearance

Look on your right retard ----------------------------------------------->

Im just messing with ya. Erich is pretty short, although never mention it around him, you dont want to end up like that woman with a bowling ball instead of her face. He is also quite slim and has a pretty big head for his body. He also developed a pretty bad posture in his early days when watching television.

People speculate that *" Rott "* isnt even his true name and that they call him that because of his signature blood red eyes. Who cares, red is cool. Under the fake German hat with the sewn on cat ears he rocks a wacky red hairdo. Complimenting that, he wears a light pink coat with some sewn on awards that probably dont even exist and dont forget the distinct red band around his left hand. Under that coat he usually wears a dark shirt, dark pants, and a pair of black military grade boots.

Surprisingly, well maybe not, Erich picked up some traits from cats, such as cleaning himself a lot, tilting his head in wierd ways and I swear to god ive heard him moew a couple of times.

## Current Days

Nowadays, Erich lives in a small apartment together with Red Eye and Cinderine. They get on pretty well, you could maybe even call them friends I guess.

He is in a wierd spot though. Hes been better, hes been worse. No one knows what the future will bring him. Although one thing is for certain. Hes out there to get them motherfuckering STARZ.

After a few weeks of messing around in the zone, Erich and Mika got into a larger gunfight against some 3-bit gang boss. Luckily they met a stranger who shared some common interests and together they took that bitch down. The strangers name was Harmonica. After a verbal exchange they became so called allies.

## Abilities, I guess.

#### Bowling ball beatdown (BBB for short)

Can beat you with a bowling ball. Dont ask me why, dont ask me how.

#### Machinen Gewehr 34

This gives Erich the ability to unleash up to 900 rounds per minute of lead into his enemies.

#### 3 Foot long Bayonet

3 FUCKEN FEET MATE. Found on the street, it makes Erich a complete badass and a madman to actually use it in combat.

## Relationships

#### Mika

Best friend and a member of the gang. They are tighter than Yoshi and Mario. They met at a young age and a series of misfortunate events sealed their friendship probably forever. They get on like a pair of siblings.

#### Red Eye

A new companion, but a rather good one I would say. Red Eye seems to do no harm to Erich and is a generally good person. They get on quite well.

#### Harmonica

Met at a difficult time during a shootout, neither really trusting the other side they became so called allies. They didnt hit off in the best possible way because of the lack of trust. While Mika doesnt think much of Harmonica, Erich thinks Harmonica is very nice and does also feels sorry for his arm. They exchanged their phone numbers and who knows what awaits them in the future.

## Trivia, bitch

> *"I fucking hate Shanghai. - Adam '**Kane**' Marcus*

>

-Erich is a big fan of the Kane and Lynch franchise. He even made a fan fiction which he called Kane and Lynch 3. Some say he even tried rewriting the second game and sending it to the developers, but I have no further information on this.

-Because Kane and Lynch 2 destroyed his sense of aesthetics, Erich now sometimes runs around with an old digital camera taking photos of the night and calling it aesthetic. The truth is, they look like this.

-He is also probably the last NASCAR fan in the universe. I have no idea how this sport continues to exist either.
