Dr. Erwin is a light-skinned male of shorter stature, with sideburns. He presents as a baby masquerading as an elderly individual.

Personality[]
Erwin presents himself as a kind-hearted, enthusiastic, and somewhat eccentric individual. His intelligence is remarkable; he has successfully constructed robotic suits, taught infants the basics of coding, and established a school independently. He possesses a charismatic demeanor, particularly when interacting with children, and appears genuinely invested in shaping young minds to become productive members of society. However, it later becomes apparent that his motivation for founding the school was to instill in children the belief that they can achieve significantly more without parental assistance. This revelation exposes a darker side to his character, revealing him to be irrational, quick-tempered, and filled with animosity, to the extent that he would resort to brainwashing an entire audience of parents to eliminate any obstacles in his path.
Furthermore, he exhibits delusional tendencies, attributing all societal issues, such as pollution and conflict, solely to parental influence. Additionally, his excessive consumption of sweets, frequently depicted through his indulgence in ice cream and candy, suggests an unhealthy fixation, likely stemming from a childlike mentality. Despite his adult-level intelligence, he embodies a certain immaturity, because he is a baby after all and really just misses his parents.
