Lore
Character Biography:
Male/Age 21.
The chief combatant of the Kashipa organization. He developed and uses an extremely powerful magic called "Heart of the Fallen" during 1-on-1 duels.
Ever since losing to Niu at the time of the Pandemonium Assembly, he has continually held a grudge, looking for opportunities to get his revenge. [1]
ARAD TIMES Lore:
Ricardo is a famous genius in Pandemonium.
However, the proximate battle technique fused with magic was beyond imagination.
A new magic, chaser, presented by a girl who he had underestimated.
It was fresh. It was fun.
It's upsetting to lose, but when I think about it, the irregular movement was very enjoyable.
I want to say to those who die in weak defeat to learn from this.
Had I ever anticipated the next showdown so much in my routine and boring life?
The vitality I had forgotten resurfaces. Did the guys who fought me feel this?
I’m starting to feel sorry for those I killed. I killed them without having any fun.
When I think about it, isn’t it our responsibility to rejuvenate this boring Pandemonium?
If so, may I please?
Ricardo smiled and held his hand near his heart.
Sorry. Hang in there.[2]
Pandemonium War Lore:
I've never felt this great before. The moment the immense energy engulfed my Abyss, the gaping wounds on my body closed up, and the blood I had spilled was replenished. My head feels as if it's boiling from the inside, and it feels amazing! I've never felt so powerful, exhilarated, or ecstatic!
With this power, I don't have to hide anymore. Not from the Half-breed in the gold helm that disemboweled me with its spear. Not from Niu who keeps showing up at the worst possible times. And definitely not from that adventurer who put me in this predicament!
Just a little longer... Wait for me just a little longer. Once I absorb all this energy through my Abyss, I'll come to you, and chomp down on your necks. [3]
History
In his past life, Ricardo is one of many high ranking Kashipa members who received a Abyss Transplant sometime after the Abyss was discovered by High Mage Moah during her research into dark magic. With the transplant being a success, Ricardo's powers increased tremendously, able to develop his own magic called "Heart of the Fallen" while fighting and became so terrifying that he even caused members such as Gragol and Hatred Veil to tremble in fear and leave the organization. With the internal conflicts surrounding Kashipa possibly due to the Abyss, Ricardo took it upon himself to kill Moa, Male Mage and his companions as well.
He would later participate in the First Pandemonium Assembly, managing to defeat the representatives of those organizations until he encountered Niu of the Guardians, a Battle Mage that he underestimated at first, but would eventually lose to her when she presented Chaser Magic during their duel. Ever since then, Ricardo has held a grudge against her and would find different ways to get his revenge, such as recruiting a young Snowflake Joshua as his student.
Although he doesn't make his appearance in Harlem until later on, Ricardo is mentioned by Silver Light Tagor about him first discovering a mysterious flame that landed into Dark City as he took it with him and gave it to Trauma Yom for safekeeping. During the events between Royal Casino and Fight Club, Ricardo speaks to Yom through voice after he killed Healer Soniar due to fighting over the flame which happens to be Isys's egg, putting a surveillance spell on her and sending out Demon Sworder Chermak to interfere with the Adventurer's group.
Ricardo is quite aware that Yom tried to recruit the Adventurer to keep his attention solely focused on the Fight Club. Now referring to them as a "Outsider", he wanted to let them know what type of situation they got themselves into and plans to pick up the egg knowing it's location. Inside a secret room and after Yom's Shadow Beast is defeated, the Adventurer now being accompanied by Cobb comes across the egg, but they ask him to stay there as mysterious creatures began appearing in Harlem. While Cobb is by himself, a portal opens up to have Ricardo approach the boy, kills him and leaves with the egg.
Along with Niu, Pai and Ceberin, the Adventurer's group returns to Dark City now through a passageway from the Casino fighting off more Kashipa members and monsters alike until they finally reach Ricardo, but Niu is unconvinced that isn't the Ricardo she's familiar with as he runs away asking for more time. With the egg speaking to him through telepathy, Ricardo refuses to obey it's orders as one of the Guardian members attacks him from behind as he begins to act very strange with something squirming inside of him. A figure suddenly bursts out of his chest and to Niu's reaction, it's revealed that figure is none other than the real Ricardo who was using that body as a host the entire time.

Somewhere in a hiding spot, Ricardo attempts to break open the egg with various objects, including explosives, but nothing leaves a scratch as he gives up halfway through and leaves.
During Nighttime Skyscraper, Verdant Frekses mentions seeing Ricardo trying to break the egg before running off to the Skyscraper's center. Sometime after Isys's resurrection, he returns to his hiding spot angered at the now-cracked egg blaming it for getting him injured, he then remarks that he'll borrow it for a bit as Ricardo uses his powers to go inside the egg, completely vanishing.

Revisiting the Mansion again, Ricardo is let loose as he prepares to fight one last time. But despite his newfound powers, Ricardo's body is unable to control it or defeat the Adventurer as he runs away to the Spire Throne. Upon entering, Ricardo is seen having his powers absorbed by Sarpoza and dropped onto the floor, saying his boss's name while dying.
