I've been playing this game along side Cleo/Erik for almost two years. She does not "go after the weakest players she can find." She hits all types of players at all stages. Be thankful you are not in the middle of an alliance of leaderism players and if it's too much for you to play near Erik you are free to make a new hero someplace else.
No, I am leaving the game, given that I don't like anything that rewards bullies. Erik is a Bully. Plain and simple. And he did tell me that was how he played, going after smaller/weaker players. I really had hoped that this game would have been more about building trans-player alliances to stamp out bullies like Erik. To me, Erik is the black ghost shadow from the first game who poisons everything he goes after.
Enough with the name-calling. It's inappropriate and you only embarrass yourself. Bers said it. It was part of the plan to have real players provide the "threat". I suggest you take others' advice and avail yourself of one of the three options mentioned. Good luck to you.
