Erpr lútandi was according to Skáldatal the court skald of the Swedish kings Eysteinn Beli and Björn at Haugi.
[1] Skáldatal tells that Erpr committed the crime of killing in a sanctuary.
He avoided the death penalty by composing a drápa about Saurr konungshundr.
[2] The Landnámabók adds that he had a daughter named Lopthœna who was the wife of Bragi Boddason, another skald of king Eysteinn Beli.
Lopthœna and Bragi were ancestors of Gunnlaugr ormstunga.
