Eric The Lad

Eric The Lad is the main protagonist in the RPG Adventurer's Whim. He was born and raised by Elnir Of Umgar and by Georg The Respected of Almer.

He is 18 as noted by Sean saying "18 already huh? Man, I wish I was still your age!". He is the only character in the game with the "Unique Adventurer" class, allowing him to use the powerful attack "Demolish" once his SP reaches maximum. Eric was born in Edlebrook, a large town in western Felgrove within the Almer Province. He is capable of utilizing a wide range of weapons and armor, unlike many of his companions, who typically specialize in one type of weapon. However, he shows an obdurate preference for melee weapons.

After his father's death, he travels all over the province in search of his murderer; first to Wispan and to Arad, with the help of Earl and Johnathan Myrram.

He finds the murderer in Arad, and with the help of Earl, he kills him and successfully avenges his father.

It is later learned that the murderer was under the influence of a powerful demon god known as King Ahzrial, far away in the distant Sootlands, located in the west on the Almer-Dyre border. In order to travel there, Eric invades a hostile bandit ship arriving from the Umgar Province and takes control of it; the ship is now able to be retrieved from any watchtower.

Eric travels to find John and Emmet to travel to the deep Sootlands and defeat Ahzrial. After a long and strenuous battle, they have won.

Once they leave the Sootlands, each companion takes their leave until only Eric is left. From there, the ending credits roll out. When they end, one year has passed, and numerous new features are added to the game play.
