Early Life
Erwin was born as the firstborn son of Henry Bishop and his wife, Victoria Sawer, within Karosgrad. Erwin's upbringing was relatively private for the first ten years of his life, as at first the young Erwin was relatively shy and stayed within the Family's estate in Reinmar. However, as Erwin grew into his teenage years, he became more sociable and spent more time in the public. Specifically, he would primarily spend his time within the City of Karosgrad where he would often watch his Father participate in the Brotherhood of Saint Karl. It was this admiration of his Father and the BSK that would eventually lead the young Erwin to plead with his Father to allow him to join the Military, despite being only thirteen. After many months of asking and pestering his Father, Henry relented and granted his son permission to enlist early, knowing that he could keep an eye on him.
