xXxAboutRikki is an energetic and enthusiastic rabbit who, at a young age, had been orphaned in a Kalona raid on his biological families warren, having only survived due to his mother tucking him away before leading the Kalona away from the Den, sacrificing herself and alerting others of the midnight raid in the process . Word came of the hungry Kalona’s disregard to the fact they were Spirit touched Familiars and not the average creature, reaching the Amachi’s bodyguard Jebari in time to aide in chasing away the attacker.
When rescuers reached the warren, Rikki, still but an infant, was the only one left. With no other relatives and in desperate need for care, Jebari took the young rabbit back to the Amachi territory, introducing him to Avye to care for. Avye and her sister Azizie both took the young little rabbit into their hearts quickly, and he grew up strong with their care.
When he met Almase it was an instant connection, the young rabbit knowing immediately that the two were bonded and that she was his pony and he her familiar. Eager to please, he quickly took to trying to help her out with everything, even though he had a physical difficulty doing so; being raised by Raccoons, he was familiars with their ways and not that of the rabbits, making him clumsy in his attempts to do jobs better suited for the masked bandits. He still manages to be helpful, and his sheer determination when doing things more difficult for a rabbit, such as ferrying pitchers of water, inspires Almase and those around him.
Trivia
Has a MASSIVE, unrequited crush on Almase
Despite this crush, he looks up to Sabras, and understands the two are happily married -- just because he's romantically attracted to her doesn't mean that she, a monogamous mare with a stallion who treats her with the love and respect Rikki feels she should be treated with, and so doesn't bother her with the fact he loves her....
Not that everybody doesn't know about it.
He and Sanova Amachi don't get along at all. Though Rikki is the bigger man about it despite being the smaller species.
