Erich Van Houten is Elly's father and Medena's husband. He is a proud Solarian with short blond hair and a mustache. He used to be part of Gebler but was reassigned as the head of the Soylent System where he saved many surface dwellers (Lambs) from becoming Wels and later food and medicine for the population of Solaris. Elly's childhood nanny was one of these rescued Lambs.
He is first seen in Solaris after Elly hacks into his home computer to download information that will help Fei Fong Wong and the others. Erich wants to kill Fei, but Elly convinces him otherwise and he lets him go.
He is later arrested by the Imperial Guard when he refuses Krelian's request to hand Elly over to him.
He is later sprung from prison by Hammer and commandeers a Solarian Eagle soldier gear to help Elly, Fei and everyone else escape from Solaris. Their path to freedom is blocked when Hammer turns on the group and threatens them at gunpoint. Grahf and the Executioner then show up to make things even worse. Erich sacrifices himself to protect Elly from them by charging them with his gear, however, the Executioner completely obliterates his gear, killing Erich instantly with no less than a wave of her hand. His last words are his profession of his love for his daughter.
Trivia
Erich in the rough draft
- He was originally meant to have brown hair and brown eyes, however, the creators thought it better for him to have a more Aryan appearance to better fit the fascist disposition of Solaris' setting.
