When I was signing up for an RPG, Erica was the first charcter I wanted to be because I felt that I had enough information to play her but enough to give me room to play with her.
But when I actually read the books, she does turn out the be the female Pete Black- you see mentions of her and she says things and interacts, but not much more then that is given. Pity.

Have you read Friends Forever, otempora? She is given a lot more personality there--artistic, not into clothes/shopping/makeup--and begins a search for her birth parents. I would say that her character becomes very well-defined. (Although IIRC, the RPG canon ignores FF canon.)

I have read some FF, but those are the ones where we don't see Erica actually have a personality. I bscwiki'd her and kinda had to fill in the blanks. I always forget she's adopted for example.

I liked Erica in Friends Forever. I felt bad for her when Claudia called her "Stacey." I liked how she and Claudia tried to find out who her biological parents are.

^ So do you think that is implying that Erica might be like Stacey? Since they both seem to be into shopping, clothes, makeup, and parent issues (divorced parents vs. being adopted).
What do you think Erica looks like? Similar to Emily maybe?

Did you read Friends Forever? Erica features heavily in that. She does not like clothes/shopping/makeup. Claudia called her "Stacey" because Erica took over as Claudia's BFF while she and Stacey were fighting. I believe she has brown hair.

Yeah I read FF and remember Erica in that. I was just wondering what other people's impressions of Erica were, since she's a bit blurry in my head, and I always like to hear how other people perceive BSC characters.
To me, it seems realistic that, after SMS, the girls would branch out and make new friends. That always happens. To me, my friends in elementary school didn't always carry to high-school (although we still remained friends, we weren't as close).
I think Erica would be a good choice for the BSC members to befriend, especially Stacey, Claudia and Mary Anne.
