Richard Fritz

Richard Fritz is a character role-played by Tobii.
== General Information ==
Richard who is commonly referred to as "The Chicken Man" wears a black jacket, black jeans, and a black chicken mask with red eyes. He is taller than the average Los Santos citizen and is known to appear and disappear to scare his prey. He does not speak, he instead broadcasts his words through cassette tapes, notes and body language. He is a dangerous, cunning, and unpredictable individual that has instilled fear and paranoia in his prey. 
=== Background ===
The Chicken Man is an enigmatic individual that has been known to stalk Andi Jones and members of The Guild, he has attacked numerous people. Not much is known about this person as he is likely to appear in random places and to disappear into thin air, making him a difficult target to catch and track down. 
== Conflict with Death ==
Andi decided to make a deal with Norman where in exchange for poisoned objects Norman would offer protection from Richard. Norman proceeded to meet with Richard and make an agreement where Richard would have to leave Andi alone while their deal was still active. Richard, growing impatient or as an act of defiance, quickly broke this agreement and chased after Andi anyway. In response, Norman handed a crow to Andi known as Smoke in hopes that the crow would ward off the chicken.
This turned out to not be the case as Richard later chased down Andi with a hammer and stole the Smoke from her. Norman has since had a personal vendetta towards Richard and has vowed to kill him for his defiance.
It is presumed that the Chicken was avoiding Norman for a longer period of time, only showing up in the city on occasion to view people from afar. The one time he did interact with someone was in a church with Andi Jones, where he had her locked in and forced her to kill Smoke. After doing so he again disappeared and Norman instantly showed up, looking for him. After learning that Richard had already left Norman openly called him a coward. He revived Smoke and handed him back to Andi and told her that Smoke might need to learn a thing or two from Noxee, who seems to be the only other being besides Norman that Richard actually fears.
Noxee has since been seen fighting Richard on several occasions and using fire to ward him off from his potential victims. Richard however continued to pursue Andi and her friends, hurting several of them in the process. Andi again asked him what he wanted from her and got to learn Richards new intentions; she would help him kill Norman and he would take his place. Andi was still confused why she of all people would even be able to accomplish such a feat to which Richard responded that she is "marked" and an "anomaly" which death lingers around.
On the 26th of October, 2022, Andi and her friends were once again pursued by the Chicken Man, resulting in several people getting hurt. By the end of the day Andi decided to make one last trip to the lighthouse where she once again found an eyeball by a smoking skull. She continued to the island north of the lighthouse where after consuming the eyeball she once again saw the white crow that appeared to be injured. After approaching the crow she was trapped inside of a cage and Richard appeared once again as well as Noxee who tried to fight him and fend him off. The nearby battle resulted in Andi dying and she found herself in Purgatory together with Richard and Noxee where the two continued their fight.
Andi, believing that after dying she had nothing left to lose went on to repeatedly stab Richard with a knife hoping it would kill him but it had no effect. She soon heard the voice of her dear friend Nancy Drew who helped her hide from Richard and guided her to the boat by the shore and helped her return to the land of the living.
What happened to Richard after Andi and Nancy had left was unclear for a long time and it was believed that he was stuck in purgatory. In January 2023 this changed, since he showed himself again. This time with a new outfit: the varsity jacket, the blue jeans and the mask all changed to black and now the eyes of the mask are glowing red.
