Character backstory: Born in 1046, made Vampire in 1077. As a teenager in Ninth century Scandinavia, Eric joined with a rogue band of warriors who refused to swear allegiance to any kingdom because, in his own words, "My destiny is to answer to no man." Eric quickly became the leader of the group, which was briefly infamous for marauding on the coast of what is now Germany and Poland, until they mysteriously vanished after a battle in 1077. Eric did not speak about how he was made Vampire, or who made him, but has recently revealed that Godric is his Maker. Eric is of Norse "Viking" descent. He "made" Pam and she has been his friend & coworker numerous times over the years. He owns the tourist-y gothic vampire bar called Fangtasia in Shreveport.

QUOTES ON BEING ERIC NORTHMAN
  • "I play a lot with the thought of a guy who's seen everything. He's been around for 1,000 years, so he's seen everything, and he doesn't waste his time. He doesn't play any games. He's very straight-forward. He knows what he wants and he knows how to get it, basically. So, I just try to have fun with that directness to him. He's very grounded and very confident, and he knows what he wants, all the time, and he doesn't waste his time. Falling in love with humans, and all that kind of stuff -- some of the other vampires do that -- is just a waste of time to him." (--interview with www.mediablvd.com)

  • Alexander Skarsgård
    "He wears sleek European suits and expensive shirts. I have a long blonde wig and I'm obviously pale. And he loves to be the center of attention. He's got his nightclub and he roams around there like a king. (- interview with www.mediablvd.com)

Dirty minds! It's time to sing 'Happy Birthday' to the Viking of our dreams!
