Eike is a thin man with grey, pallid skin and bulging eyes with small, dark pupils shadowed by heavy brow ridges. He has no visible eyebrows.

The welcome caption for the Gensopedia.

One such venture to his reading room in the castle basement led the residents of Budehuc Castle to assume he was missing was being an extensive search for him.

When found, Eike apologized, explaining how easy it was for him to lose track of time when reading. The mystery of how Eike came to be in the basement before the elevator there was repaired remained a mystery, though the residents were mainly relieved to find their friend.

Later, when Geddoe and his team infiltrated Budehuc Castle, they were discovered by Eike. Somehow he was able to surprise the group, despite their being professional mercenaries. He was also unfazed by having weapons drawn on him by Ace, who suspected him of being no ordinary man.

Although he didn't speak much on the matter, he was also a supporter of Thomas as castle lord and stood with him against the efforts of the Zexen Council to remove the young lord.

Eike's talents as a librarian were notable as he was able to find old documents relating to the history of the castle when needed and it was he who first realized the connection between Geddoe and the man who had been present at the negotiations surrounding Budehuc Castle some 50 years prior.

Following the War of the Champions, Eike continued to lead his Silent Reading Society, holding meetings in the deep basement of the castle.
