Riku

Young Riku

Riku is an anti-hero, turned into a main hero, in the Square Enix's video game series, Kingdom Hearts. A boy with an average physique, Riku is the childhood friend of Sora and Kairi, having lived alongside with them on Destiny Islands.

Curious of the world outside of their own, Riku's desire of exploring the unknown turned into catastrophe as he meddled with the forces of darkness, turning against his friends in the process. Since then, Riku realized the error of his ways, attempting to make amends by following the path of dawn. He eventually reunited with his friends following a series of of trials and tests, becoming a prominent guardian of light.

He is also involved in the villains wars, usually working under an employer, usually Maleficent. Ironically, his role in the video game series remains the same in the later events of the villain wars, with himself being forced to serve the designs of the villains, later trying to make amends and reunite with his friends, particularly with Sora.
