BEFORE DEATH

Riki has always been an innocent child who simply enjoyed doing street art to express his feelings. However, as pure as he might be, innocence could turn into danger if not treated carefully. Riki simply did not understand what is right and wrong along with the consequences of his own actions, he did lots of questionable things in his youth without realizing they might cause danger to others and to himself. He even went into youth detention center multiple times for being caught vandalising public properties yet he still didn't know when to stop. He never understood what is wrong because he believed he was simply "giving the boring streets a bit of color to liven the mood up". Whenever he had time, Riki would ran off with his street artist friends at night to give the urban streets a brand new look - until one day, he had fainted over a piece of art he could never finish for repeated exposure to volatile organic compounds from the spray cans...and he never woke up.

AFTER DEATH

After Riki's death, his soul was not able to move on and was sent to the limbo. There he was given a vessel of a fox plush by Milo, which gives him the power to transform into a kemonomimi human. Riki still loved to paint everywhere in the Garden, and this began to create a big problem because Milo is having troubles telling Riki off from vandalising the Holy place. Later, Riki met Yuzuru, who loved him so much that he built a shelter near the outskirts of the Garden such that Riki could paint to his heart's content away from the public eye. Riki's innocence has caused him to pour his love back to Yuzuru for his kindness, and he began to do whatever Yuzuru said, supporting him fully when Yuzuru had started a revolution by establishing an off-limits area called the Neonia in the limbo. Right now, everyone who was recruited to live in Neonia knew that Riki is second-in-command in this place, and no one would dare to be rude to him because they are all terrified of Yuzuru. That being said, Riki would never do anything bad to anyone on purpose, though...being innocent can be quite cruel sometimes...even if they meant no harm.

Relationships

Yuzuru [ Boyfriend ]

Yuzuru was moved by Riki's innocence and warm welcome since he came to the Garden, he had protected Riki when he was often being told off for covering the Garden in graffiti. Yuzuru ended up finding a remote place at the edge of the Garden and began building a small shelter (which is later developed into the Neonia) for both of them such that Riki could paint to his heart's content.
