In his home country, specifically in Washington, of the United States, he was very open and friendly. However, currently, Eric is very withdrawn and quiet. He simply does his job, then moves on to the next. It isn't that he's unfriendly or shy, it's just that being a foreigner<em>and</em>being one of the first pilots to drop out of the program painted a big target on his back. Because of this, he keeps to himself unless he's around other, more friendly people involved in the project. He's caring, slow to anger, and genuinely wants to help out his fellow pilots. He's confident in his abilities, but often loses face when settling into a mech.<br/><br/><strong>Backstory:</strong>Chambers was a smart kid. He was an 'A' student, and often times took additional classes at local Junior Colleges just to keep his mind busy. He was offered scholarships and practically begged to attend a variety of schools - not only in the US - but around the world. At the time, his young mind was simply shocked and overwhelmed by the chance to see different parts of the world. So, he decided on a school in Japan. It was exotic, far away from home, and it would give him the chance to see how another country operated.<br/><br/>Then the US, his home, gained control of the Machina. Suddenly his home country looked less and less like 'Freedom and Apple Pie', and more like a militaristic state that you'd only hear about in movies.<br/><br/>Time passed, projects began, and young minds all over Japan were brought together, including his. He was told of what was going on, the projects in the works and his new countries response to the 'Machina'. He was included in tests and courses that were prepping him to be a pilot, given his own workspace and board just because of how important he and the other pilots truly were. But as part of his final testing, his dreams of being a pilot came to a halt.<br/><br/>He had joined the Japanese military because he believed his home country was wrong in their zealous crusade of pseudo world domination. He wanted to fight back, to show that no matter who they were, people were still people. The world didn't deserve to have to bend a knee to a single ruler. Regardless of this belief that he held dear, some of his fellow test pilots harbored hatred for the foreigner, and cast all their blame on him. Thus, during a training battle, his opponent used deadly force, piercing the left torso of his mech, causing a pain unlike anything he had ever felt spike through his chest. The plugs rigged up to his back and neck surged with energy, as if the machine was trying to take his own life force to supplement it's own. This left his body weaker than it was before, and since then he could never muster up the energy needed to pilot a manual mech.<br/><br/>"Such a mind cannot go to waste!" "We still need you, please! Just accept our offer!" Promises of full access to Electronic battlemechs and training with them were showered upon him. Apologies for the 'unsportsmanlike conduct' hit him from every side. But he was through with that. He would never be a pilot. He doubted a mech would even accept him as one. Hell, he didn't even like sitting in a co-pilot seat anymore, but becoming a technician and weapons programmer often led to him being forced into the cockpit with another pilot.<br/><br/><strong>Sexual ons:</strong>Quiet girls, softcore sex, clothed sex, teasing, dry humping.<br/><strong>Sexual offs:</strong>Submissive girls, 'anything that doesn't belong in the bed'.<br/><br/><strong>Other:</strong>Despite being from out of country, Eric's relationship status fluctuated alot during his time in Japan. Even though he dropped out of the pilot program, he still chases after girls he finds interest in. One thing he's proud of is making such a big impression on one pilot while adjusting her optics, which led to her sealing off the cockpit and getting what she wanted out of him before she let him out. He can safely say that he has had sex in a mech, although it's not something he goes around telling everybody.
