Biography

Riku—or it would be better corrected as the Riku Replica—has lead an existence that really isn’t much of an ‘existence’ to begin with, particularly to those in The Organization. Created to be used as a tool, a distraction, a sacrifice, the Replica had been ordered to chase after Sora and confuse the living daylights out of him, to fight and destroy the Real Riku—or to be better put, make The Organization’s job a heck of a lot easier.

But like all corrupt organizations were doomed to fail, this one was not so different; much of the members were too busy squabbling with one another to really pay much attention to the lone puppet-boy loitering in the back of the room, or wandering the halls aimlessly, taunting Sora or chasing after Real Thing, or watching Namine color her pretty pictures. And although he’s come to realize that he is in fact a mere replica, he’s still very much emotionally immature--capable of walking around with a large ego and air of confidence. He’s also extremely self conscious of himself, no doubt due to the fact that he’ll always and forever be burdened by the thought of being someone else’s shadow.

Because of the false memories implanted in his ‘heart’ by Namine, he has a hard time relating to things on a personal level, confused by these feelings that aren’t his, and that belong to someone else. He isn’t sure if the color blue, or yellow are really his favorite colors, or if the sound of the ocean has the soothing effect only because it did with the Real Riku. He’s very frustrated on the inside, and is on the borderline of honestly hating himself for it. The Replica abhors the Real Thing, so wouldn’t that mean he hates himself as well?

Even so, there are some good qualities hidden underneath that haggard and rough exterior. As often as he is completely forgotten, the Replica still has some redeeming traits—if, well, one chooses to see them as so. Never the less, as small as the role he has, he’s still managed to grow into his own person, whether he realized it himself or not. In the end, when it really counted, the Replica showed that he really wasn’t the enemy The Organization made him play the role of. And, in a true act of chivalry, he left Namine in the secure hands of Sora and went off to find himself, perhaps in more ways than one, and face his “fate”.

► BACKGROUND HISTORY

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

► PERSONALITY

Many of Riku’s traits are largely amplified in the Replica, expanded on by Vexen. His thought process and behavior patterns are for the most part identical to the Original’s, but because of the lack of every day life experience the Replica goes about things in a more straightforward and less tactful manner. The Replica was created to be more aggressive and protective, prone to lash out at the provocation or threat of his existence and worth. He picks fights often, even with those who are stronger than him. He’s extremely defensive about his value, so to suggest that he isn’t of any importance is an intense personal offense. To the Replica, it’s all about protecting his honor, and along with that, he’s fierce about keeping promises; to break one is to lose all respect. He holds promises dear to his heart and tries his utter best to achieve his goals and vows. He’s also stubborn to a fault; which makes it easy to ride him for a short while until he calms down or finds himself bored with the topic. He doesn’t give up easily, and when beaten down he assures himself and the other that next time, he will be stronger and better. He has self-confidence and assurance whereas the original didn’t, though it could lead him to often over-estimating himself in many situations. Respect can be easily gained if someone proves themselves worthy – though it can go astray in numerous ways, if they insult him. The Replica is picky with who he shows respect to, and tends to look at that person for acknowledgment and approval for many things.

Also, because of his lack of real-life experience, his communication with people can be a little awkward in the way that he says things at the top of his head and has no regard for proper conduct; after all, Vexen hadn’t exactly thought that manners were all that important to incorporate them into him. Because of this, relating to people might prove a tad difficult to him since all he has to go by are memories (and even then, those aren’t his) so just about everything he’d be experiencing for the first time, its minute details completely new to him.

While it was said that he’s can easily fly off the handle, the Replica isn’t all that snarky. He’s brash in the fact that he’s honest, not yet adjusted to the “think twice before you speak” proverb. He isn’t much of a social butterfly, but isn’t anti-social either. Any friends he makes that become close to him forever have his loyalty, and he’d work hard for their acceptance and safety.

Overall he’s very much like a normal teenage boy; he’s jealous, easily riled and extremely competitive. He’s capable of being a sweet boy; all he needs is a chance to shine through and someone to believe in him.
