Ricardo the Rat

Ricardo (Middle and last names TBD) the Rat - or simply Ricardo the Rat - is a robot rat who lives in Barhamsville, Virginia, United States, and is one of the major (or at least recurring) characters in the "Barhambots" franchise.
==History==
In late January 2021 AD, Ricardo was designed to be a character in the Barhambots franchise after Connor Banjoper's plans for the franchise underwent major changes, including evening out the gender-ratio between the major characters in the franchise. (Also because Connor Banjoper liked the name Ricardo, so he chose it to name one of the male characters on it.) He was officially manufactured in 202X, and later befriended all the other Barhambots.
There aren't many episodes that focus on him, due to the fact that the majority of the episodes focus on the female Barhambots, rather than the males. However, one of his most notable adventures is in "They Came From Muntanna, Ohio!" (S3E4), where he and the other male Barhambots visit a haunted junkyard in Ohio and encountering discarded animal robots that have become "zombimatronics" by radioactive waste that also happened to be in the junkyard for some reason.
In "We Like To Party!" (S4E3), Ricardo also accompanied Lucy, Rags, and Gertorn on a trip to New Jersey where they later met another group of animal robots called the Thunderbolt Throttlers who drive around every night on a party bus.
In the movie, Ricardo and the other Barhambots (except Faina, who was living in Tanzania at the time), accompanied Connor Banjoper on a vacation to a ski resort in Kyrgyzstan, which Ricardo voted for (the other option was Jamaica). A week after the vacation, the Barhambots were on trial because Ruby massacred a Steam Community user at the airport shortly before they left for Kyrgyzstan. (The Steam Community user was trying to murder her out of xenophobic beliefs.) Connor Banjoper and the Barhambots were convicted and fined $2.5 million, or else the Barhambots would be repossessed by the government (and subsequently destroyed). Though they did pay the fine on time, they were still in danger because an angry mob was on their way to execute Connor Banjoper and the Barhambots because they were involved in ruining the mob members' lives. Before the mob could kill them, however, reality itself entered the scene and forced the entire Banjoper Universe to be completely realistic, causing Ricardo and the other Barhambots to become inanimate animatronics that could only be used for entertainment purposes. After Connor Banjoper is tried once again, the government follows through with their warnings and repossesses the Barhambots, despite Banjoper paying them the fines they demanded. However, instead of destroying them, the government relocated them to an amusement park in Pennsylvania named Cartoonia. ((REST OF PLOT TO BE ADDED LATER.)) 
==Trivia==
*Unlike Gertorn, Samar, and Tomas (all designed prior to 2019 AD), Ricardo is not among the originally planned lineup for the Barhambots franchise.
**He shares this detail with Jade the Chipmunk, Greta the Cheetah, Erin the Mouse, and Evie the Deer (who was designed before 2019, but was originally planned to be a minor character).
*Ricardo is friends with all of the male Barhambots, and a lot of the female Barhambots as well. This indicates that he is comfortable with the company of both genders.
*Ricardo was made to make a reasonable proportion between the major male Barhambots (which had few members, especially prior to the current plan) and the major female Barhambots (which had many members before most of them were either changed to other types of characters or demoted to recurring characters).
*Unlike most of the Barhambots, Ricardo's voice actor was not predetermined by Connor Banjoper, due to Ricardo being designed after the plans shifted in 2019 AD.
*Ricardo may or may not have Guatemalan heritage in him, due to the fact that Guatemala is Connor Banjoper's favorite Central American country, and Ricardo just so happens to be a Hispanic name (which Guatemala uses).
**Connor Banjoper himself doesn't remember if Ricardo was intended to be Guatemalan (or Guatemalan-American) or not.
*During the party at the end of "Balloon Bots", Ricardo says to Gertorn: "I'm glad our girlfriends convinced us to do this!", confirming that he has a lover, but it is unknown which female Barhambot it is.
**It could possibly be Rags the Raccoon, as he asked her to the Kickin' In The Sticks dance in "Lucy's Lover", but this has yet to be confirmed.
**It could also be either Jade the Chipmunk or Erin the Mouse, due to both of them being rodents like Ricardo.

== Quotes ==
"So, Rags. Are you available to go on a date with me to the dance?" - (Ricardo asking Rags to accompany him at the Kickin' In The Sticks Dance. (S1E2: "Lucy's Lover"))
"Man, there's not really much to do around here except eat, sleep, watch TV, go to the bathroom, walk around, and watch the traffic. There's gotta be something that I can do to entertain myself while Gertorn and Lucy are in Vermont. I can't leave the apartment because I promised Gertorn I'd watch over it. If only I had some friends over here, then we could do stuff together before Gertorn and Lucy come back from Vermont. Then, I wouldn't have any problem having fun here. (Gets an idea.) That's a great idea! Why don't I have a party here starting tonight, and I can invite all my available friends over to have fun together. That will be amazing! I gotta make some phone calls." - (Him deciding to throw a party in Gertorn's apartment. (S4E3: "The Campfire Headphase"))
