“	Lord Ethan, I know these words are hard, but they're honest. This House is falling.	”
	— Erik

Erik is a minor character in Telltale's Game of Thrones. He was member of House Forrester who attempted to steal supplies and flee. His punishment/banishment and subsequent fate will be entirely up to the player (Ethan Forrester) to decide.

Character

Erik is cowardly and shows little faith in his House, claiming that the Forresters are doomed and attempting to turn a gathered crowd against their Lord. His loyalty is so minimal that he attempted to steal and flee from his post.

Game Of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series

Iron From Ice

While Maester Ortengryn is talking with Ethan, Royland catches the thief stealing weapons from the House. Ethan is given the decision to punish the man by sending him to the wall, chopping off three fingers, or have mercy on him. Royland suggests that he must prove that the people cannot do "whatever the fuck they like".

• Having mercy on Erik or taking three fingers lets him stay in Ironrath.
• Exiling him results in Erik being sent to the Wall.

The Lost Lords

If sent to the Wall without having his fingers removed in the previous episode, he will appear in Gared's story, bitterly stating that Ethan should have chopped off three fingers so that he could have at least stayed with his family.

The Sword in the Darkness

If sent to the Wall without having his fingers removed in Iron From Ice, he briefly appears during the assignments given by Denner Frostfinger and Jon Snow at the start of the episode. He is given the role of steward.

Sons of Winter

If sent to the Wall without having his fingers removed in Iron From Ice, he is briefly seen glancing at Britt's body while it is being burned.

The Ice Dragon

He only directly appears in this episode if you didn't send him to the Wall in Iron From Ice and Asher survived the previous episode. He only appears in Asher's story, he is first seen tending to a horse when Asher arrives at the gate in the courtyard to confront Ludd Whitehill. He also appears if Elissa poisoned herself along with Ludd Whitehill and Bowen died in Iron From Ice. He is killed by Harys saving Asher. If Bowen/Elissa takes his place being killed by Harys, it is assumed that he was either killed or injured, or perhaps managed to escape in the Battle of Ironrath. However, if he was sent to the Wall, then his fate is unknown, but it could be assumed that he becomes the only survivor when his family presumably gets killed by Whitehill soldiers.

Killed Victims

Erik has not killed anyone.

Death (Determinant)

Killed By

• Harys

If he stays in Ironrath, Bowen dies in Iron From Ice, Elissa Forrester poisoned herself alongside Ludd Whitehill, and Rodrik Forrester sacrificed himself in the previous episode, then Erik will appear in The Ice Dragon, for unknown reasons, attempting to protect Asher Forrester from Harys by stabbing him in the back. When Harys turns around and notices Erik was responsible, he promptly stabs him through the abdomen with his sword, killing him.

Relationships

Royland Degore

Royland mercilessly beats Erik when he insults Ethan and begs for mercy.

Ethan Forrester

If Ethan has mercy on him, he will be thanked by the thief. If he takes three fingers, Erik will be in too much distress and agony to form an opinion of the Lord. If he was sent to the Wall by Ethan, Erik will hold a grudge against the Forresters.

Harys

Though the two never met, Erik will attack Harys if he stays in Ironrath. Harys, in turn, will kill him, seeing him as an enemy that needs to be killed.
