Height; 6'1"
Weight; 79kg
General Appearance; Erik is a tall, gangly sort of man; he has long legs and long arms and seems, at times, to be a little stretched out. That lends itself to the flatness of his body with a set of trim hips and a flat stomach kept in shape through training. His face is sharp with an almost boxy jawline and angled features. His hair is kept short, even on each side, and he's always freshly shaved and smooth skinned. Erik is, generally, a handsome looking man that takes good care of his appearance because he understands how appearances can be important in the games that he plays as he tries to save his kind.
Physical Mannerisms; Erik carries himself with the confidence of a man that can, quite literally, manipulate the world around him. He is confident, cocky, almost, sure footed and walks with an almost swagger - each stride is purposeful and long. He doesn't shy from eye contact and it takes a lot to make him nervous; he'll hold his ground for as long as he needs to. Laughter isn't his forte and most of his laughs will be short, sharp little things that tumble out of his mouth as more of sarcasm than anything else; he doesn't smile often and, when he does, you know something bad is about to happen. Generally, Erik stands with his arms crossed or his hands in his pockets -- he doesn't welcome conversation or interaction and his body language is a constant barrier against that.
Verbal Mannerisms; With a low, deep voice and a slight twist to his words it's obvious that Erik has heritage in Europe; while he has lost some of his natural twang some of his childhood accent still remains. He doesn't raise his voice often, prefering to use the power of his voice and the words he has on his tongue to show just what he means to say and express everything without hesitation. In standard conversation Erik's voice would be even, not too loud but deep enough to stand out in a crowd.
Fashion; Fashion isn't exactly Magneto's strong suit, given the fact that he leans towards magenta, fushcia and pink clothes for his outfits. As a rule, though, he dresses simply and cleanly; turtlenecks, long, sharp trousers, dress shoes, unless he is in his Magneto guide. Then it's capes, body armour and his telepathy blocking helmet -- that comes in both traditional steel, rusted metal and, of course, pink and purple. He's not the kind of man to dress himself in fancy clothes or go out of his way to take too much care in his appearance, fashion-wise. He likes clothes that fit, that cover his body (especially his arm) and keep him covered from head to toe.
Etc; this is important.
