Eric Sweet

**Mr. Eric Sweet** is the headmaster and chemistry teacher of the school. He was in on the secret about what happened to Joy Mercer and also thought Joy was the Chosen One, but it was really Nina Martin. This is because he is/was part of The Secret Society. He is strict about the rules he lays out, but very understanding, as he listened to everything Mara had to say about hedgehogs while she was stalling him when Patricia was in his office stealing Joy's file. Mr. Sweet often sums things up by speaking in Latin, for example, “Silentium est Aurum! Silence is Golden."  Mr. Sweet is in the Secret Society with Victor Rodenmaar Jr. to find the Book of Isis and the Mask Of Anubis. He is the loving father of Eddie Miller, also known as Edison Sweet. He has a complicated relationship with his son. They care for each other very much, but they are on opposite sides of the conflict. He is the Seeker.

At the beginning of Season 3, he was part of a society with Victor and Miss Denby as they were trying to reawaken Robert-Frobisher Smythe from his almost one hundred year long sleep. In Season 3, he was surprised about the project Ms. Denby gave the students (the family tree) so he shut it down, in order to keep his own son in the dark about their plans. He later attempts to expel his son, as well as the rest of Sibuna, but relents due to the persuasion of Miss Denby. He was taken as one of the sinners in Season 3. He also used to do line dancing.

## Trivia

* Mr. Sweet is Nathalia Ramos's favorite character.
* The first time we ever saw Mr. Eric Sweet show his very strict side is in House of Accusations / House of Hasty.
* His son is Eddie Miller.
* His ex-wife lives in America, where Eddie lived until his mom sent him to England to attend boarding school.
* Eric knew about Patricia Williamson, Alfie Lewis, Jerome Clarke, and Joy's family histories, and devised a way to gather all of them in Anubis House. He set up a scholarship funded by the "Candy Foundation" (in British English, Mr Sweet's spoken English, "candy" is known as "sweet" or "sweets) which was a mere ploy to gather all the 4 descendants in order to re-awaken Robert Frobisher-Smythe.
