Riotroopers

are a paramilitary force of henchmen from the Kamen Rider Series installment Kamen Rider 215 and the accompanying film Kamen Rider 215: Missing Paradise. They are the first set of "Rider-like" foot soldiers within the franchise. They are also the first case of a Rider originally created for a Kamen Rider movie that was later introduced in the TV series.
They are employed by Smart Brain and are a personal army that fought against the title character Kamen Rider Sigma and his allies. As the show uses the Greek alphabet as a motif, omicron (O) is their Greek symbol, and unlike the other Rider Gears, they seem to possess no Smart Brain number, most likely due to the lack of a phone unit in the Gear. Their data is derived from the Faiz Gear with some modifications for mass production purposes, which results in the suits' resemblance to a simplified Faiz. Both sets of troopers, in the series and in the movie, were destroyed by Sigma in Axel Form. In the TV Series, they were destroyed by Sigma Axel's Axel Sparkle Cut; and in the "Missing Paradise" movie, they were destroyed by the Axel Blue Bomber.

===Kamen Rider 215===
===Kamen Rider 215: Missing Paradise===
====Lost World====
A bunch of Riotroopers show up and start attacking people. Phase as Kamen Rider Neo-Sigma defeats them on his own.
Kendate as Kamen Rider Faiz and Clifford as Kamen Rider Alpha meets up with Phase and Mari, and one more Riotrooper shows up. It seems to be different from the others (Riotrooper ver. 3), and is equipped with the Faiz Edge. Neo-Sigma, Faiz and Alpha fight it and its helmet is damaged and reveals that inside is the Dog Orphenoch.
With Neo-Sigma, Faiz and Alpha can’t stand up to the Riotrooper v3, they run away with Mari. But then Phase gets his arm cut off by Dog Orphenoch and is left abandon on his own. While Dog Orphenoch kills Kendate and Clifford as Phase watches as he outstretched hand trying to help but the duo are turned to ash.
Brett arrives on the scene and runs into Shuichi, now in Dog Orphenoch form as the Riotrooper v3 was badly damaged.
====Missing Paradise====
The Smart Buckles are mass produced (approximately 10,000). These wearers were more akin to traditional military unit. Their purpose is to exterminate any human resistance that oppose the Orphnoch race, including the Human Liberation Army. Led by Kamen Rider Mu, they attacked the human sanctuary until Yuji, Sugar, and Makoto intervened. They were then sent to hunt Mari and Brett, where Brett regained his memory as Sigma, then transformed to protect Mari from them. When they are knocked out of their Riotrooper forms, they transform back to their Orphnoch forms.
