Editing Erik Sotto (section)

== Personality ==
Erik was devoted to his protection of [[LJ Folger]] and the Folger family, having saved LJ prior to the boarding of Snowpiercer. His affection and caring nature towards her persisted, and Lilah remarked that he raised her and would do no harm to her.

Despite his caring nature, however, he was susceptible to her negative influence and murdered both Sean Wise and [[Nikki Genêt]] on her orders. Despite almost being caught, he did not give up his connection to LJ, however. Though he took Jinju hostage, Erik never did her any harm even when cornered, suggesting that his actions were not completely cold-blooded and he was just desperate during the kidnapping, but not enough to harm or kill an innocent person. Notably, while on the run despite having a gun when everyone else didn't, Erik aimed more to frighten than to actually cause harm, both to his pursuers and other innocents.
