Dark Erica also wears a black coat, with a dark blue blouse she wears under her coat, she also wears a black skirt, in addition to wearing her yellow necklace and her feminine bracelets in dark blue and black and wears dark blue sandals.

She currently wears the same cord and blouse identical to Dark Eric, however she wears a black skirt and black and dark blue sandals. She also happens to wear a lock of dark blue hair in her hair, like Dark Eric.

## Personality

Dark Erica is in love with Dark Eric and does anything that pleases him, except killing and torturing people, as that is a more fragile side of her and her friends, which means that they are not completely evil. She would rather steal and kidnap than kill others. Dark Erica tries to flirt or seduce Dark Eric to make him fall in love with her, but her love is not returned by him. Even so, Dark Erica is still willing to do whatever he says, except kill and torture people with violence, she is willing to kidnap, steal, lie, blackmail, spy and manipulate Dark Eric's disaffections, showing that she can also be very aggressive without needing violence or killing people.

Even though her love for Dark Eric is unrequited, Dark Erica still wants to show her loyalty and love for him, showing that she can be useful in sabotage, espionage, theft, blackmail and manipulation. Like Dark Eric, she is also villainous, but less arrogant and less vengeful and more insecure, as she does not have the cold blood or courage to kill and torture her enemies, she prefers to steal, blackmail and spy than kill and use brute violence, Dark Erica would even be willing to threaten.

In season six, she and her friends maintain their love and loyalty to the Dark Animals, the only difference being that they become more aggressive and more hostile than in the previous seasons they appeared (second and third).

She and her friends return in the season seven (episode 94), where the Dark Animals have a temporary (more true) crush on Erica and her friends.

Even though Dark Eric doesn't love her, Erica still does favors to please her boss and is loyal to him, while her friends are loyal to the other members of the Dark Animals.

It is also mentioned that in episode 94, Erica and her friends are now willing to kill and uses the violence to please their bosses, which means that even though Erica and the Dark Angels are villains, they have matured, although their insecurities are still present, but the insecurities of the girls compared to their previous appearances, now they are smaller, they are more mature, probably during all this time of not seeing their ''favorite males'' (The Dark Animals)
