Trivia

 * Erik is based off of three people, and one cool accessory.


 * First is a reference towards the Phantom of The Opera; Erik was the Phantom's true name in the original novel. His family is named after Phantom of the Opera characters; his father, after Raoul, his mother, after Carlotta, and his sister, after Christine Daae. His disfigured face, mask and his passion for singing is also a reference to the Phantom himself, along with his signature strangling assassination method, strategies, and knack for surprise.


 * Second, he is a reference to Char Aznable of the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise. His semblance is a reference to Char's "three times faster" motif, along with his color motif being red. His favorite technique in combat, a series of kicking maneuvers, typically after a diversion, is a reference to the "Char Kick." The fact that Erik wears a mask, has blonde hair and blue eyes are also references to Char's physical appearance, along with a scar on his face. His weapons, a pair of SMGs doubling as heat blades are also references to the weapons of Char's famous mech, the MS-06 II Zaku II, which are the heat tomahawk and the machine gun.


 * Third, Erik's physical appearance, his passion for cars and his one-liners are references to deceased actor Paul Walker, star of the Fast and the Furious franchise, as Brian O'Conner.


 * His mask is a reference to Raiden's Visor in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.


 * Erik's surname, Erythryon, comes from the ancient Greek word "erythron", meaning red. In fact, I discovered this inspiration while looking up the Char based Gundam character Athrun Zala (of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED) on his TV Tropes page.


 * Erik was one of the first OCs created, and was conceptualized in December 2013, shortly after Monty's color rules were unveiled. In fact, he was one of the first 16 characters conceptualized with the color-naming motif.
