Riku was born in Acaciia where he enjoyed a happy childhood playing with others his age he enjoyed exploring all the nooks and cranny’s of the city but his most favourite pass time much to the dismay of his parents was play out in the rain he enjoyed the sound it made as it landed on the ground so he would spend most rainy days of his youth either listening to the sound of the rain underneath an overhang or go out for walks in it. When he became an explorer the rain didn’t stop him much since he enjoyed it so much while others would wait inside he would simply head to his destination anyways, he always enjoys helping others he encounters on his journey whether it be helping them out with there tasks or simply an ear to listen.

He currently lives in the outskirts of tucruitora capital with a small lefika named Shiru helping her out with her dream of mapping out the entire world she was initially annoyed by his constant presence but has warmed up to him since and they are very close now and now they go about their days travelling to foreign places or simply inside their small home working on Shirus maps.
