Eric was a mutant who, (like his twin brothers, Sven & Harlan) believed in the mutant supremacist ideals of Magneto. They quickly joined the Acolytes in order to bring order to bring the “flat-scan,” humans under control. He was killed in one of the first Acolyte/X-Men battles which was fought over a mutant child that Magneto was trying to draft into their ranks, before finding out that the child had been diagnosed with Down’s Syndrome, and thus would be just as useful to him as his dead Acolytes. Eric is survived by his twin brothers, Magneto, and several of his fellow Acolytes.
