This might get a little confusing. I'm going to be going through all my character and telling a little about each one. They are all from or will be in the on-line comic http://mintwhelp.comicgenesis.com/ made by a good friend of mine. This is confusing because there's some time travel involved so in the comics story and Riki isn't actually guardian yet. Plus some stuff I can't write about them since it hasn't happened in the comic yet even though that event could be an important part of a character. (This paragraph will be posted for each character I do so you can ignore it after the first time)

Riki is the son of Timelson and Else. In the future he ended up taking over as Guardian from his father although doesn't use the guardian armour or blade since they weren't usable by the time they came to him. He uses the sword he calls 'despair' since its an ice blade and he hates the cold. He uses such a weapon since Fechies aren't strong and if his fire attack can't hurt something then ice will probably do the job. Most the characters have kids that come from the future in Mint Whelp Saga so it only made sense that Timelson and Else have one. That is what lead to his original creation, the whole being inflatable thing came later. Anyway he's off trying to change the future for the better. Can't say much more since his main plot line hasn't appeared in the comic yet. :)
Also he is my avatar and people assume he's me. He's grown into a kind of second identity that was eased onto me. :)
