He looks harmless enough all right, a slightly built man in his late twenties with disheveled hair and a scruffy beard. A typical bookworm, some might say, one of nature’s banking clerks or assistant librarians. |
However, if one happened to ask Mr. Thursley about the subject of his research, his normally wandering eyes would likely fix into a stare of unexpected intensity. A driven man this Eric would turn out to be, obsessed even, with what he calls ‘the study of extra-dimensional, or inter-planar, entities’. It might take a moment to realize that he is, in all seriousness, holding forth about the lore of demons. This with a passion and fervor commonly associated with the more radical of religious zealots. If one were to actually pay attention to his ramblings, which would already be more than most are like to do, one would notice his habitual references to his great-grandfather, supposedly the renowned Dr. Faustus himself. Eric seems determined to prove his ancestors’ theories and hypothesis, which seem to revolve around the belief that the school of Conjuration is the purest and thus most deserving to be recognized as the highest of Magics. | However, if one happened to ask Mr. Thursley about the subject of his research, his normally wandering eyes would likely fix into a stare of unexpected intensity.
