Freya, Eric's Alter Ego

Freya, Eric's Alter Ego

In order to escape the terrible conditions at his Burg, Eric Olafson meets with Sif at the Space port mall. Sif comes up with the idea to dress Eric as a Nilfeheim Girl. Women and especially girls of Nilfeheim, escape the oppressive, traditional ways of their culture by going to the Shopping Mall part of the local space port. The space port being Federal Territory features many venues and places, deemed decadent and soft “Off World” Garbage by the Stern Traditionalist Elders. (Such as Virtu Show Theaters, coffee houses, Fast Food Restaurants, Fashion outlets and modern supermarket) Sif does not know that Eric has already a secret desire to be female and he discovered it while snooping around in his dead mother's boudoir and wearing her dresses and things. Eric adopts the Alter Ego of Freya, and for several month becomes the fourth girl of a tight friends group including : Sif Arnske, Astrid Mossberg, Elena (Elenna Olafson) and Hedda. Alquist.

Eric resumes the role of Freya later and it causes much trouble. Eric is warned by The First Keeper about the consequences if he, a celebrated hero is found out. Once more he takes on the female role as Freya when he meets the Federal executioner in the Corri-Dorr System.

While he takes on what seems to be a permanent gender chance after he takes command of the USS Tigershark and the guide of Black Velvet, he calls himself Erica and not Freya. Freya was a costumer/ an alter Ego. While Erica is just a female version of his persona. However his Gender role is once more reversed when the Dark One finally awakens and sweeps the “female part” away (which has been a personality graft of Tyr in an attempt to temper the Dark One with the ultimate feeling of creation (that of giving Birth) and make the Dark One forget his revenge and chose the side of light. The Dark One however chooses the Third Way and thus restores the RULE, seals the Multi Verse Rift and leaves the Universe himself.
