Eric House

Eric House, also known as House Master and The Boss was a former CIA operative, politician and philanthropist. Later in his career he would become the respected proprietor of Asaka Sushi, a highly successful restaurant chain. However, despite outward appearances, Eric was the leader of a major crime syndicate, secretly using his restaurant as a legitimate front for conducting operations. Eric was a criminal mastermind who "hid in plain sight", until he finally decided to unveil his true intentions through the Red Revolution.

After Eric left the CIA he founded The House along with his closest ally Willem Reid. However the two friends would later develop a bitter enmity and rivalry, eventually culminating in the birth of the Les Enfants Terribles project lead by Karim Nakad and Willem's death.
