Golden Ryan

**Ryan Goldsmith** (ライアン・ゴールドスミス), aka **Golden Ryan**  (ゴールデンライアン) is a new hero who appears in *Tiger & Bunny: The Rising* serving as Barnaby's new partner in replacement of Wild Tiger. Like Barnaby, he showed his face in public as seen in the trailer.

## History

Ryan was a popular hero overseas and was hired by Schneider to replace Tiger as Barnaby's partner. At the end of the movie, he announces that another overseas company has offered him an even higher salary and that he will leave his Apollon Media job.

## Relationships

Barnaby's Partner- In battle Barnaby and Ryan have shown good teamwork, but their ideologies conflict. Ryan cares about getting on camera and being the centre of attention, as well as scoring hero points. At first, Barnaby was suspicious of Ryan, even thinking that Ryan would turn out to be part of the group of criminals they were facing, and that he would be the one to sink the city underground. Ryan shows that he is sharper than he acts, pointing out that he knows Barnaby doesn't trust him and that he can read Barnaby's distrust in his expressions.

## Powers and Abilities

Ryan has the ability to create a gravitational field, within which no one (with the exception of Barnaby and Tiger with their powers activated) can move. He can create one in the regular half-sphere shape and can also alter the shape of the field such as elongating it. However, when he is using his power he is vulnerable to attack.

## Costumes

Golden Ryan's first costume was yellow and blue and resembled a medieval King's or Knight's costume. The top of his helmet was shaped like a crown.

After signing with Apollon Media, Saito makes Ryan a new suit. This costume was modeled after a lion and almost entirely gold. The fingers of his gloves have small claws on the tips. It also includes a large pair of wings that Saito admits serving no purpose other than to look cool. The addition of wings makes him resemble Apollon Media's Griffon.

Ryan's costume's color makes him stand out, matching his desire to be under the spotlight.

### HeroTV Communicator

Like all the Hero TV heroes Ryan wears a simple "communicator" wristband which Agnes can use to contact him, usually to inform him of a crime being committed. The other heroes can also use this communicator to call him. Ryan's communicator is white with gold bands around the edges.
