Mortal Days:

Eryk Klarvindstot was born in the year 1423, to the Fenrir Sept of the Raging Heart in Norway. Born Kinfolk, Eryk grew strong going on raids and helping his brothers and sisters fight the forces of the Wyrm. He married and had twin girls, life was good for him, untill one day a man came to the village Eryk had just helped take. He said that his name was Lothar, a steward of House Giovanni, having heard of his skill in combat, he invited Eryk to a dinner party thrown by his master. Eryk, full of pride at having been seen as someone with "great skill" kissed his wife and children goodbye and left with the man. it would be the last time he would see his family alive.

The Last Supper:

The year was 1444 and weeks later he arrived deep in the Carpathian wilderness at an inn called the Red Lamb. Here he met the people he would come to call family for Centries to come. Talking and telling stories, Eryk and his new friends talked untill after nightfall when Lothar returned and said that his master was ready to see them. And so they went to the Giovanni Manor. it was a dark place, but Eryk and the others thought nothing of it, they were just happy to be noticed by such a high ranking noble lord. Once inside they were taken to meet Claudius Giovanni and other noble lords and ladies. It was here that Eryk met his Sire Lord Leopold Valdemar. Late into the night they spoke and then the time came for the Cainites to dine. Eryk at this point knew what he was dealing with because he had helped hunt the Wyrm Spawn with his family, so he tried to fight back, but being only mortal, was easily Dominated back into sitting down and was slowly being bled dry. He would have died that night had it not been for the timely arrival of the Founders. Seeing as they were out numbered, Claudius and the others quickly embraced their meals and forcing them to fight to the death while they made good on their escape. Being new to the Night and their own powers, they were quickly beaten and taken by the Founders. Hardestadt at the bidding of Derga Sin agrees that Eryk and his friends would return to their Sires as spies.

Vampire Machinations:

Going back to his Sire proved little trouble, they were welcomed and made to be messengers to the Cappadocians. Through events they could not control, Eryk and his friends Met and learned from Cappadocius himself before the Antediluvians' death at the hands of Agustus Giovanni. When the dust cleared, a Clan Founder was slain and his Clan was soon to follow him, the Giovanni rose in power and became a Clan themselves. Eryk kept a promise to his Sire that he made the night of his Embrace, that Eryk would kill him for what he had made him into. Eryk and his friends were quickly forgotten. And so with no where for them to go, they all desided to return to Eryks' homeland.

Home comming:

It was not how he had imagened it would be.. but what did he Really expect. his wife cursed him for what he had become, his mortal family shunned him, and tried to kill him. So he and his new family took over a large castle and made it their own. Ghouling the staff and others, years passed by and Eryk grew in the ways of the Shadows and his other gifts. It would be 150 years of forming a powerbase on which he sat unchallanged. During this time Eryk fell in with the anarchs. He remembered well his first nights and how Hardestadt and the other Founders used and abused him. He wanted Nothing to do with the Camarilla.

Convention of Thorns :

In 1493 Eryk and his pack were summened to the Convention to hear and give their thoughts on the matters of the Cainites in the regian. It was here that much happened to shape the events that would last till moderen nights. Eryk in no uncerten terms threw his lot in with what would be known as the Sabbat, he even helped most of them to the New World, using his many contacts in the ports. It was also here that he met a man that tought him the art of Spirit Thaumaturgy and the importence of knowing Cainite history and Lore. Since that time Eryk has become quite knowledgable in many kinds of Lore, from Spirits, Cainites and Garou, to Will Workers and the Fae.

1672:

In 1672 Eryks' life would change.... He and his pack had saved a woman from a roaming band of Tremere, as it turned out she was a Healer Salubri, and as reward, she tought Eryk the healing arts of Veleren. It was also the year that he and his pack met the Fates. Saving the girl they said was of great importence, and in a time of great need, they could call on the Fates to aid them. Of course Eryk and the others didn't Truely believe they were who they claimed to be, but later that year when Eryk and his pack met a band of Baali, and he watched his packmates fall one by one, he stood last, bloody and near Final Death himself, he called out to the Fates and as he fell to Final Death, the Fates answered his call. They were saved from Death flung back in time to 1012. Why the Fates did this he does not know, all he knows is that he and his pack were alive and well. They staied hidden in the shadows, watching and learning all that they could, and when they were "born", they all kept their distence from their mortal selves. Eryk watched out for his younger self, helped when he could but let things happen as they did in 1444. And still staying to themselves, the pack watched and waited untill the night of their "Death" at the hands of the Baali. They watched themselves get cut down one by one and then when the Baali thought it over, they attacked with all the power that they had learned in their extra time. The Baali were cut down easily, and after the battle, the bodies of their younger selves just vanished. Life went on as normal.

Time Passes:

Eryk has had many roles in life, Warrior, Husband, Father, Brother and in time even named Arch Bishop. He has gathered around him books on many subjects, and has many many allies over the years. He has never lost his humanity.. his compassion for mortals, some say that is his biggest weakness. Sometimes he woud have to agree with them, other times not, But all would agree he is a man of Honor.

Necropolis:

Eryk has made this city his home for the last 50 years, building up his contacts in the mortal world, starting companies of his own, even a club or two. Here he has met many loves, Sired Many Childer, and made many enemies. He has left the Sabbat behind to branch out on his own. Most nights he can be found in his night club called the Shadows Haven.
