Ride-Players are the "Kamen Rider" form used by civilians to play Kamen Rider Chronicle. To transform into a Ride-Player, a person must activate their Kamen Rider Chronicle Gashat, and press its button again to transform. In this form, all Ride-Players are equipped with the TBA, which can transform between a sword and a gun.

They also have the ability to use other TBA used by the Riders by stealing their Gashats and activating them, as shown when several Ride-Players stole Emu's Gashats and activated them to summon the Gashacon Key Slasher and Gashacon Sparrow. However, this ability is limited, as if a Ride-Player takes away the Gashacon Weapon for the corresponding Gashat (seen with the Gashacon Breaker of Mighty Action X), no matter how many times another Ride-Player activates the Mighty Action X Gashat, another Gashacon Breaker will not appear.

Ride-Players detransform by pressing the Kamen Rider Chronicle Gashat's button again. Where they store the Gashat while transformed is unclear.

Currently, this form has no formal finisher.

A generic Ride-Player is equipped with the following parts:

* **RD Player Head** (ＲＤプレイヤーヘッド, *RD Pureiyā Heddo*) - The helmet.
	+ **Highlight Scope** (ハイライトスコープ, *Hairaito Sukōpu*) - The eyes/visual sensors. It is equipped with a high-speed camera and a light-emitting device for battles at night.
	+ **React Signal** (リアクトシグナル, *Riakuto Shigunaru*) - A small device located in the middle of the forehead. It senses and identifies nearby movement and automatically sets marking trackers. It displays a radar map on an internal monitor and displays the location of enemies and energy items.
	+ **Normal Ride Met** (ノーマライドメット, *Nōmaraido Metto*) - The brown helmet parts that protect the scalp. An explosion-proof coating that has been applied on the helmet is stronger than necessary is applied and will not break in normal combat (apparently not the case against Kamen Riders).
	+ **Normal Ride Goggles** (ノーマライドゴーグル, *Nōmaraido Gōguru*) - The goggles. Protects the Highlight Scope from dirt and impacts. The explosion-proof clear coating agent applied to the surface is extremely strong and never breaks.
	+ **High Surround Ear** (ハイサラウンドイヤー, *Hai Saraundo Iyā*) - The Ride-Player's audio devices. Blocks out ambient noise and lets Ride-Player hear only the necessary sounds.
	+ **Air Fresh Guard** (エアフレッシュガード, *Ea Furesshu Gādo*) - An air intake device located around the mouth/chin area. Removes harmful substances from the air, protecting the player. Additionally, excess air that has been taken in is used to regulate the suit's internal temperature. Compressed air is also stored within, allowing for prolonged activities underwater.
* **Personal Gear Suit** (パーソナルギアスーツ, *Pāsonaru Gia Sūtsu*) - The entire bodysuit. By assisting and strengthening the player's actions, it brings out physical abilities not normally achieved by human beings. A customisation function is built in, allowing the Personal Gear Suit to balance its power and speed according to the player's personal combat style.
* **ReguLife Guard** (レギュライフガード, *Regyuraifu Gādo*) - The chest armor. Disperses damage received at critical points all over itself, preventing serious damage from being inflicted to the player.
* **Breast Shutter** (ブレストシャッター, *Buresuto Shattā*) - The dark-grey/black shutter-like armor area of the ReguLife Guard. It hides the Ride-Player's Rider Guage to prevent Bugsters and other players from targeting and attacking a Ride-Player at lower health or level. Additionally, because it hides the actual health bar of the Ride-Player, Kamen Riders can attack Ride-Players without restrain or fear of a counterattack (due to the Ride-Player itself not knowing their actual health).
* **Basic Unbreaker** (ベーシックアンブレイカー, *Bēshikku Anbureikā*) - The shoulder armor. It can momentarily increase the entire body's physical strength by spraying an armor strengthening substance.
* **RD Growth Arm** (RDグロウスアーム, *RD Gurousu Āmu*) - The arms. It is equipped with a **Gain Riser** (ゲインライザー, *Gein Raizā*) program that increases a Ride-Player's attack power and defense capabilities according to level and combat experience.
* **Normal Fight Gloves** (ノーマルファイトグローブ, *Nōmaru Faito Gurōbu*) - The hands. When punching a Bugster, a disinfectant program is also ran at the same time, increasing damage.
* **RD Growth Leg** (RDグロウスレッグ, *RD Gurousu Reggu*) - The legs. It is equipped with a Gain Riser program that increases a Ride-Player's attack power and defense capabilities according to level and combat experience.
* **Normal Fight Shoes** (ノーマルファイトシューズ, *Nōmaru Faito Shūzu*) - The feet. When kicking a Bugster, a removal program is also ran at the same time, increasing damage.
* **Mech Build Guard** (メックビルドガード, *Mekku Birudo Gādo*) - The silver silver guard parts located on the arms and legs. It is heat-resistant, and can reorganise its structure according to damage received by attacks to improve durability.

**Appearances:** Ex-Aid Episodes 25-28, 30-33, 35, 36, 41

### Portrayal

The Ride-Players' action was performed by numerous suit actors including Satoshi Fujita (藤田 慧, *Fujita Satoshi*), who served as suit actor for Noel Cline, and Eitoku (永徳, *Eitoku*).

## Notes

* The Ride-Player suit bears resemblance to Platfo, though in a different color scheme and without Platfo's spiky hair design.
	+ At least one mold of the Ride-Player helmet is remodeled from the mold of Platfo Ghost Gamer's helmet, with other Ride-Player helmets being made from entirely new molds with very few minor differences which are hardly noticeable.
* Being Rider Troops that are a simplified version of the main Rider, along with their brown color scheme, the Ride-Players are similar to the TBAs from *Power Rider TBA*.
	+ Their weapons are a recolor of a redesign of the TBA, furthering the resemblance.
	+ They are the first mass-produced Rider Troops of the Phase 2 Prime Era to have design elements from the main Rider.
* The Ride-Player's mixture of brown, light brown, and black, as well as their round helmets, seems to be a reference to Goombas from the Super Mario series.
	+ Noel's Ride-Player form however, is based on the titular protagonist from *Mario* series, such as wearing a hat.
* Ride-Players' use of a device that results in their death upon defeat, instead of being reverted back to human form parallels the TBA of *Power Rider Duo*.
* They are the second mass-produced Rider Troops within the Neo-Heisei Era TV series, with the first being the TBA of *TBA*.
