Erica is a student in Ruhlman's Skills. She is nineteen-years-old, and she comes from a suburb of Philadelphia. Erica is described as short with thick brown hair and the bluest eyes Ruhlman has ever seen. She starts out as one of the worst students in Pardus' class, but by the end of the session block, she improves and becomes the symbol of how far a person can come in the Skills class alone.
