Name: Eiríkur
Age: 6
Gender: Male
Appearance: Eiríkur is an abnormally small, yet fluffy eevee. Unlike most eevee, his fur is a silver color in hue, and shimmers in the light. His eyes are also a pale blue.
Personality: Because Eirí was raised in a far more nomadic way than most others in this time, he feels he is supposed to be wise beyond his years and expects more of himself than is realistic. Eiríkur has never allowed himself to have much of a childhood, and by extension, he never allowed himself to act like a child, at least in public where others could judge him. His fur causes him to stand out quite a bit and he was taught by his brother that other pokemon will be wary of him for it. Even though he is very critical of himself and won’t back down from a challenge, Eiríkur is very kind to others, and forgiving to a fault, tending to fret over complete strangers if given a good enough reason. He won’t pick fights if the situation is avoidable, but he is no pushover either.
History: Eiríkur never knew his family beyond his older brother Aleksej, and the soft spoken Glaceon never gave him a reasoning behind it. That being said, though he never met them, Eiríkur is very aware that he has three other older brothers. Aleks tells him stories often about their family, about what they were like, and how they interacted, but never why he and Aleks were travelling alone. They spent the majority of their time moving from place to place, never staying any one place long.
When they did stop it was to rest their paws and to gather information about something called the Shade. Of course Aleks did most of the information gathering himself, leaving Eiríkur alone in the nursery with the younger pokemon more often than not. Due to his time in nurseries tending to eggs and hatchlings, the young eevee developed a fondness for caring for those younger than him as well as a detailed knowledge of eggs and the care that they need.
Of course nothing is ever that easy, and the past eventually catches up to them in the form of the Shade. While they are travelling one day, three pokemon emerge from the brush, an Espeon, an Umbreon and a Vaporeon. These pokemon are Eiríkur’s other brothers, which is confirmed quickly by Aleksej’s confusion and reluctance to battle them. Unfortunately, Aleksej wasn’t given a choice in the matter. The Shaded pokemon attacked with all the ferocity the stories had depicted, going for the kill with no hint of the pokemon they were before. Eiríkur watched, too terrified to move from his hiding place behind a bush while Aleks fought for his life and to save Eiríkur’s. It wasn’t until after the Umbreon and Espeon had been killed that Aleks realized that his remaining younger brother was still cowering behind him and hadn’t moved.
The Glaceon grit his teeth, covered in the blood of their brothers, and told him to run. Eiríkur had never run so fast as he had in that moment. Tears soaked the fur around his eyes as he ran, reeling from everything he saw and trying to absorb the situation. It may have been miles or only a few yards before Eiríkur stopped, unable to force himself to move any farther when there was a chance that his entire family could be dead. It was hours before Aleksej found him, and he was far from unscathed. The young teen was covered in wounds, battered from the struggle of fighting the much stronger pokemon. Despite this weakness, there was a cold determination in Aleksej’s blue eyes, and Eiríkur knew in that moment that he had made his mind up about something.
It was then that Aleksej finally told him everything. How his parents had left Eiríkur for dead upon seeing his odd shiny fur, believing it to be an omen of bad things to come, and how Aleksej had thought this was cruel and had taken care of him from then on. Aleks's grief from killing their brothers weighed on him, though, and while he still believed that Eiríkur could be a great person, he simply needed time to grieve alone. Or at least that's what Eiríkur was told when he was dropped off at this "clan" with his brother's assurance that he would be safe there until he could join him later.
Other Info: Umbreon’s name is Cyril, Espeon’s name is Lalli, and the Vaporeon’s name is Raini!
