Richard the Trashcan

**Background:**

One day Richard just appeared on earth. It’s unclear if he had a family but Richard has spent years upon years traveling the world to see what it had to offer in his early days. The male always had the same calm attitude and personality from his first years of exploring up until now. During his travels he located rare treasure, cursed items and powerful relics that the gods and goddess have left upon the world. Richard is no slouch when it comes to wisdom from all these travels, even having conversations with said gods and goddesses. He had helped villages seal away dark spirits to removing year old stains from carpets. He’s even gotten around to Cynthias family and was always welcomed in their home for generations. Egyptian carvings even show Richard making him very old and apparently a god like person in himself. Richard was approached by Skelebore and asked to work for hardly anything. Richard agreed and spent many years to this day cleaning and building for his friends.

Richard works for The Totally Super Evil Organization as their janitor. He’s been working there for along time but seemingly people never spoke to him until recently even being present at a few meetings. Once his presence was known he starts attending every meeting. His cleaning abilities are above average. Though the trash falls from his can while cleaning at times causing it to still look dirty making the cleaning process take even longer. He also is their mechanic. His skills are good enough to build robots, times machines, and nukes if given the resources.

**Personality:**

Richard is a man who gets straight to the point when chatting. He isn’t one to sit down and have a full blown conversation with someone. But that doesn’t mean he never does it. He doesn’t mind explaining important details or questions he’s asked until whoever he’s talking to understands it all. He’s a rather patient man behind all that. He was once lost in the dimension between time for weeks and didn’t seem bothered by it at all, even making his own home as if he was ok with staying there. He’s rather friendly to people who approach him. Always giving advice or asking how they’re doing. He won’t betray the people he works for and know s a lot about the world. Strangely he claims to know other dimensions and worlds exist. And seems to have met plenty of gods and goddesses over his years of living.

Richard tends to do more then just clean the countless messes everyday. He is a really good poker player. Though he never beats about his skills and goes out to play every so often. He is seen to be rather skilled at reading people’s faces. Even though Richard keeps the same look in his eyes all the time he’s a smart cookie. This often annoys Skelebore when playing against him. Richard when playing poker tends to wear a green visor on his lid. Even if he’s jealous Skelebore sends him out sometimes to collect money for their evil plans. When it comes to magazines Richard is always seen reading them whenever he’s in break. He likes reading about pop culture and keeping up with latest events. He also reads cleaning supplies and mechanic monthly issues to stay on top of it I case something revolutionary comes out. For music he’s often heard listening slot of 70s, 80s, and 90s music. Though he isn’t known to have ears shown he keeps headphones taped to the side of his can. Greg has even asked his Richard known of his past dance master but never got a chance to answer that question since he was busy.

He knows where vast and important treasures lay since he has no desire for them. When it comes it building Richard can build simple things like tables, shelf’s, to nuclear misses and time machines.
