Riko's Debut stream.
Profile[]
She’s a joyous entertainer who loves to make everyone smile. Always mindful of her teammates in matches, her bright personality adds to the team. Always surrounded by snacks.
Personality[]
Riko has a bright and energetic personality like her motif, a star. She has an excitable, feminine voice with a tendency to speak quickly which easily conveys her enthusiasm about the topics she talks about. She is a "certified yapper" by her admission and loves to talk about many things with her chat. She is the type to sing and hum songs when in a good mood, but she can also be surprisingly sensitive and can quickly become gloomy when things are going badly for her in-game.
She has a well-balanced personality among her colleagues where she isn't as hardcore gamer "toxic" as Remia or Arya, but also not as wholesome as Narin or Jira. She can and does swear fairly often, but avoids dirty jokes. Riko is an extrovert who likes interacting with others both inside and outside of VSPO.
