Fanon:Erin Beaker (STM)

Erin Beaker is a major recurring character in the StrangeTown Monty (STM) Machinima Series.

The default Erin is part of the Singles household in Strangetown. But in STM Season 1, all three of Erin's roommates became collateral damage, while she was left unharmed. This may be a benefit of being Loki Beaker's sister, and Ajay Loner's girlfriend. Erin's "survival" is a vague parallel to Bianca Monty's narrow escape in the Veronaville Disaster.

The "Bella Goth Case" is officially assigned to Loner, but Erin seems to be doing most of the hard work. It makes sense for Bella to relate better to Erin, woman-to-woman. Erin is also more patient and focused than Loner. So Loner might have already failed the task, if not for Erin's intervention.

Erin is a "double" for the show's protagonist, Bianca Monty. Both women have reasonably good relationships with their brothers, and are placed in a position to make decisions that may greatly impact their male siblings.

Furthermore, Erin is designed to be the only other significant character in the show to share the same subtitle color and voice type as Bianca. In episodes where Bianca's plot seems dormant, Erin takes centerstage.

Will Erin be the "strong woman" supporting Loner? Or is Loner the "weak man" who will be her undoing?

NOTE: (1) Erin Beaker appeared as Vidcund Curious' romantic interest in Code Monkey, one of the author's early Sims videos.

(2) EA released two consecutive Sims 3 worlds that somehow relate to STM. Monte Vista is Italian-themed, with Bianca & Antonio Monty as kids. Aurora Skies is Scandinavian, featuring Loki & Erin Beaker as innocent children. Who knew that BOTH the "Monte Vista siblings" & "Aurora Skies siblings" would be prominently featured, in adult form, in STM?
