Richard started life along side his Sister, Ryvion, who had a deep hatred for him and his Father. He grew up quickly with the name ''Ricashay'' and would soon grow very, very fond it. Genuinely considering it his middle name. He grew up being taught how to use his crossbow and sword and was for the most part the golden boy of the Ashenvault family.

One night, in a blast of adrenaline Richard went against his Father and Sister's recommendations, and attempted to try and safe their mother. Each of the family came close with however they planned to, but she died in front of Richard's eyes.

Sometime after that the family had gone through no healing, and only gotten worse. Ryvion had taken to cutting herself and others, Richard was addicted to medical salves and their Father. Well. Their Father just cried. They then arrived in Bree, hoping things would start a new.

Things got somewhat better, and then worse, and then better and just fluctuated until Richard had been separated from his, then, true love. Ceou. He was manipulated and bent to the will of his wife, Neliawyn. They had a child, and once things had gotten too dangerous for him, his wife and child to stay in Bree. They left for Rhun.

Not much is known of what happened to Richard after that. It appears he just appeared in Bree once more. With many more scars, and a deeper voice... Deeper personality. It seems that he's finally grown up. But into what?
