Episodes

"Bad Teeth"

Eric is seen approaching a man as he is being tortured. He asks him the names of people in the Resistance. He then gets a phone call from Marnassier.

"The Kiss"

Eric is in bed when Captain Renard calls from Portland to ask if he was involved with sending Marnassier to the United States, chiding him for not being more discreet. Eric responds that "the family" is not as patient as Sean wants them to be. Sean tells Eric that Marnassier is dead and remarks that it doesn't appear he even needs to be concerned about Eric's attempts to kill Nick, judging by the state of Marnassier.

"The Other Side"

Eric meets Adalind Schade at a Viennese opera house with his bodyguards, and they begin a conversation as they know somebody in common: Eric's brother Sean, and they also talk about betrayal. Later, at his Castle, Eric and Adalind strike up conservation, which he reveals to her that Sean is his half-brother, because his father had an affair with a Hexenbiest, and his mother doesn't want a half-Hexenbiest in the family, so Sean and his mother left Europe to escape her wrath. Then they mention Nick Burkhardt, and Eric asks Adalind, how much she knows about the Grimm.

"One Angry Fuchsbau"

Eric talks with Adalind and implies he will be making a trip to Portland to see his brother.

Personallity

Eric is a calm, sophisticated, cultured, and very ruthless man. Although he doesn't like crueler methods (or at least claims he doesn't), he is more than willing to use them to achieve his goals. His main care is his family and their position. Eric is also very intelligent, as well as a highly feared man.
