When Richard was a young boy, his harsh father forced him to practice the blade everyday. One day, like a fairytale hero, a gruff mercenary named Mueller killed Richard’s father. Richard was so happy, he decided to follow Mueller til the end of his days. Unfortunately for Mueller, he can’t ditch the clingy boy because Richard just happens to be the best swordsman in Mueller’s entire mercenary brigade. Not that he doesn’t try. As a joke, Mueller told Richard to enter the Sacred Games, so he did. When he got back, unsuccessful, Mueller offhandedly told him to train under a waterfall. So Richard did…
When Mueller joined the Prince of Falena’s cause to take back his country, Richard wasn’t long in following once the Prince told the waterfall-training boy that Mueller was involved. As an unnaturally agile, hard-hitting, double-criticalling, Swallow-rune-using fighter, Richard is one of the top additions to the Prince’s team.
