Erik Sinclair

Face-up artist(s):

Miri

Date of acquisition:

February 26, 2016

Provenance:

Secondhand; adopted from Kazuki on DoA

Reason for choice:

My first doll ever was a male Minifee Mirwen. Although I had to sell him for financial reasons, parting with him was one of my biggest regrets. Once I saw this larger guy on the marketplace, I knew that it was my chance.

Best Points:

The CP/Fairyland turnkey and magnetic hands are super handy for putting on clothes. He's a solid poser, and can stay in one pose for days on end. Have yet to restring him in 3+ years.

I love his hooded eyes and "Mona Lisa" smile- he can be serious and gloomy from one angle, to cheekily smirking in another. He kind of reminds me of a smaller-eyed version of CP's El.

Worst Points:

His ankle joints are pretty useless imo, and his slouching isn't as great as the Minifee version.

Eyes:

16mm random acrylics

Wig:

constantly changing; pictured in a red faux fur wig.

Favourite colours:

Black, red, and white.

Fashion style(s):

East Asian inspired "urban" streetwear; kpop casual-style fashion

Key fashion accessory:

Guppykisses' white lamb/sheep hat

Name story:

I've always loved the name Erik and how it was spelled. "Sinclair" means bright or clear, which is the feelings that come to mind whenever I think about what type of person his character would be.

Character age:

19

Character gender:

Cis Man

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is available for offsite roleplay.

Erik is a snarky, but well-intentioned guy who grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. As a kid, he was a giant troublemaker and would constantly get into fights in school and in his neighborhood. He was the type of child that wasn't really bad by nature, but a child of circumstance who was continuously let down by the adults in his life that failed to nurture him. However now that he's grown up, he hopes that a new beginning is enough to fully turn his life around. After running away from home in high school, he's since gone back and got his GED, and is working to make ends meet as he plans to go to community college.

He has a soft spot for kids and enjoys helping others, but it's somewhat hard for him due to his brash nature and tendencies to put his foot in his mouth. One of the biggest goals in his life is learning how to properly deal with his short temper and rashness. He's also extremely hesitant in letting people into his life. Really tries hard to be a social butterfly.
