5 & 17 Erlich 👁️👁️

ahaaa... 5 and 17 for my the strongest clown the dearest son. its a longread as we say, or sort of. so lets put it under read more

Q 5. How did you choose their name and why? Was it simply based on vibes or is there any specific meaning behind the name? Are the reasons behind their name different in- and out of universe?

A: First i heard the name Erlich in one tv show 4-5? yrs ago and i reaalllyyyyy liked how beautiful the name was. the character was an asshole tho (ofc i liked the char as well too whoops). but the name just hit the spot. long story short i borrowed👍 it for the better times. Second. OH RIGHT. THE MEANING. THE FUCKING MEANING. okay i took the name to create a new character and in years later to realize it means "honesty" in german and tbh since then i cant stop thinking abt it. lit dying and crying.

the setting is so fire it writes itself hell yeah Are the reasons in and out of universe is specific? FOR SURE YES. OUT OF UNIVERSE I TOOK THE NAME I LIKED FROM A TV SHOW and in universe well i dunno really why agnia decided to name erlich erlich. maybe for him to be an honest man 😔🥀 a man of his words. well in fact he IS a man of his words.

Q 17 Are there any motifs or symbols associated with the character? How are they represented, in their design, personality or in some other way?

For symbols or motifs id say motif of Dreams. Something unreal and unreachable. The Unreachable, right. Lets take a look at the holograms which he masterfully operates - basically an intangible object from your imagination, almost an illusion made by technology you can fully control. Holograms in meaning of detachment from the real world. A creation of [ones inflammed] mind that will disappear in next few seconds. You cant touch it, cant feel it, only watch. Erlich prefers holograms and inventions over real life. His own little world made of holograms instead of the real one. After all, the world he had to face had rejected him. An imaginary one where you are in control of course is better. "these holograms are for the greater good! i WILL create The Machine THATS--". He operates dreams and imaginations in order to reach The Unreachable.

Woah i didnt knew i could say it like that. Link to asks
