**Preston** (also known as Clone Riggy [originally], Raggy, Ruggy and Pasta Man by fans) is the clone of Riggy the Rabbit Monkey, a character created by DannoDraws, one of the creators involved. He is a corrupted version of Riggy and is the secondary antagonist in the ARG. He is believed to be the right-hand man of The Boss, though this isn't confirmed.

## Appearance

He looks very similar to Riggy, except he has black eyes with a with iris and no pupils, is a dark blue-ish purple and has no tail. The background paper is also crumpled.

## History

**Season 1**

Creation and First Actions

He first appeared on July 23 2023 when he was created by Clone VPN as part of a plan to replace Riggy as the mascot of Danno Draws. He has a corrupted appearance because of the cloning machine glitching when he was created. Later that day, he was dispatched and captured Riggy. Several days later, after Preston tried to take Riggy's tail, Riggy escaped and freed RoyalPear.

Defeat

He, along with the other clones, was defeated on July 30, 2023, at the end of Season 1 when he fought Riggy. Riggy gained the ability to teleport and teleported to the video "RIGGY VS CLONE RIGGY" where Preston was. The actual battle started with Riggy hitting his clone in the head with a skateboard and spraying spray paint in his eyes. Preston then fought back by picking up and throwing Riggy. The two then traveled through every YouTube Shorts, fighting along the way. The final blow was dealt when Riggy kicked his clone into the void. Later that day, The Boss asked him for a status report. Preston said that all the creators regained control.

**Revealing the Truth**

In "ARE PORTALS POSSIBLE?", he was floating in the void. Finally, in "RIGGY IS BEING CLONED AGAIN?", it was revealed that he was hiding behind the graph paper, confirming that he didn't die and actually teleported away at the last moment.

**Season 2**

Recruitment Day

On November 23, 2023, he started recruiting viewers to join The Boss and dropped an anvil on Riggy. The next day, it was confirmed that Riggy got a concussion from it. After getting chased and attacked by Riggy's girlfriend, Rosey Rabbit, he retreated to Riggy's hospital room where he was concerned about the amount of medicine Riggy's been having.

Name Reveal and Thefts

On December 3, 2023, during the livestream "CLONE RIGGY NAME REVEAL", he copied the name Preston from Phaleur. The next day, he took merch from Jonny RaZeR's desk and gave it to The Boss for being "too fire" and "against Boss". On December 6, 2023, he hit Jonny RaZeR with a frying pan. After missing multiple times, Jonny pulled out a gun. Preston then retreated stealing a strange mask "in the name of the boss".

Creating Clones

On December 10, Preston rebuilt the cloning machine all by himself, creating a clone of Danno, and possibly helping to clone Joe Caine and Bundun. These clones quickly took over.

Replacing Riggy

Preston immediately started to take off after Danno got replaced. On December 13, he was mad at Clone Danno because he was no longer incognito after Clone Danno almost killed Riggy, so he insulted him by calling him 'Dumb Danno'. Because Riggy was injured, Preston instantly seized the opportunity and replaced Riggy successfully. As a result, Riggy wasn't seen at all for 2 days.

Doxxing Mogswamp

On December 15, with help from Dunbun (Clone Bundun) and Coe Caine (Clone Joe Caine; often called Coe Canine), doxxed Mogswamp's 11 year old Minecraft world. Supporters of The Boss quickly flooded the world and destroyed everything, so Mogswamp left. Later, he doxxed Mogswamp in real life, so Mogswamp changed his appearance and went into hiding the next day.

Leaving

On December 17, Riggy made an appearance, but Riggy seemed to be barely alive so Preston was annoyed, possibly about no longer being incognito. The next day, Riggy was being annoying so Preston attacked him and called his brain 'mush'. He then attacked Clone Danno after he pointed out that Preston has anger issues and should try yoga. On December 19, 2023, Riggy and Danno fully returned after Preston and FD got annoyed and left. Clone Danno (aka FD) objected but left anyways because he still had an ok relationship with Preston but completely despised Danno and Riggy. After they left, we learned that all 'brain damage' after December 10 was an act and Danno was in on it.

## Name

His new name is Preston which he got from searching Phaleur's drivers license in his backpack during the steam “CLONE RIGGY NAME REVEAL”, while Phaleur was distracted playing Fortnite.

The reasoning for him picking a new name was because people kept calling him Clone Riggy, Pasta Man, Raggy, and Ruggy.

## Trivia

* Throughout the Shorts ARG, Preston's design had some changes, these include:
	+ Cracks started forming in his eyes.
	+ Black gradients appeared on the top of his head and ears.
* His crimes include:
	+ Hacking x2 (Hacked Danno's Channel to replace Riggy twice)
	+ Identity Theft x2 (Impersonated Riggy twice)
	+ Deception (Tricked Danno into thinking he was Riggy)
	+ Kidnapping x2 (Captured Riggy, possibly twice)
	+ Attempted Murder x2 (Tried to kill Riggy twice)
	+ Assault and Battery x4 (Gave Riggy a concussion using an anvil, attacked Jonny RaZeR with a frying pan, and on two occasions, attacked Riggy after he was being annoying )
	+ Petty Theft x3 (swiping Phaleur's backpack, stealing merch from Jonny RaZeR's table, and stealing a mask from Jonny)
	+ Unlawful Experimentation (Rebuilt the Cloning Machine)
	+ Spying and Doxxing (Spied on and doxxed Mogswamp)

* As revealed in "ARE PORTALS POSSIBLE?", he was shown floating in the void alive, even though it was unknown if this is canon, though this was eventually confirmed in "RIGGY IS BEING CLONED AGAIN?", teasing Phaleur's stream.
* There is a theory created by Datchia (a major Shorts Wars theorist and now part of the canon) that Shadow Riggy is Preston's true form once it hatches. This isn’t been confirmed , but In VS. Clone Riggy one of the text boxes saids “You cannot see HIS true form!” Which could mean that he does have one, at least if the video is canon to Shorts Wars Season 2.
