Personality: Rich is a natural born leader with a great sense of humor and a great smile. In and outside of battle, Rich’s tactics are act now and think later. His digimon partner Leo tries to help out with this problem, but that usually ends with a scuffle of some sort between the two. Rich would go to great lengths to help the innocent of the human and digital world, no matter what the situation was. Even thought Rich goes out of his way to help people, he is also very irritable when it comes to people that annoy him. He will not hesitate to teach whoever is annoying him a lesson if he has the proper firepower behind him.

Rich also has a slight fear of heights and a slight fear of fire. Even though his Digimon specializes in both those categories, Rich is still weary when it comes to both. The fear of flying is stronger than that of the fear of fire. Rich always thinks he will fall whenever he is up in the air at unobtainable altitudes by humans. This includes when he rides on Leo’s back during trips. He would prefer to stay on the ground, but will take to the sky as a last resort.

Rich has small problem with the opposite gender. If he feels something for the other sex, he will pursue them, No matter what their alignment might be. This has been known to cause conflicts in the past.

New Yorker attitude: This is the other side of Rich. He will become the stereotypical New Yorker with the accent and everything. He still is a good person, but he will develop and attitude. He will shout out insults and mock his opponents with any quick quips he can come up with. This usually comes out when he is doing things that are suicide missions, or just to impress a girl. It also appears to cover up the feeling of being scared or when he is in a battle to intimidate the enemy. This is not always the best thing because he insults anyone that he doesn't respect.

7 Year Old Personality: Rich's personality does not really change in this form. He is a 17 year old trapped within a 7 year old's body. The activities that he did while he was normal size are now very difficult or impossible for the tamer. The main thing that has changed is Rich's determination. He is determined to solve the riddle and get back to normal.

"What once was but is no more
You will find what you are looking for
Wizards are deadly beings, beware
For he could bring you to your despair
Repent for your deed and he will give
Or the curse will stay as long as you live"

Appearance: Appearance: Rich is from African American decent making him darker in skin color. With tall parents come tall genes in the family, so Rich is naturally tall. He stands at 6’1 and weighing around 150 pounds. Rich has an athletic build and a strong upper body thanks to his basketball backround. He has short black hair that is hidden by a baseball cap. Rich also bears a scar across his chest from a car accident. The scar has become fresh thanks to an Elecmon (Kaizer) who almost took Rich’s life in the digital world.


Rich’s hat is the most important thing he wears. To him, it has sentimental value for it being the last thing he brought from New York. He does not like people taking it from him, especially his enemies. He will go to extreme lengths to retrieve his hat if it is ever misplaced. He wouldn't even leave it behind if his life depended on it.

He sometimes wears glasses for long distances which he keeps in infiniwatch. Rich is not capable of putting his finger in his eye, and therefore does not wear contacts. From years of wear and tear, the glasses have minor scratches here and there on the lenses. When he wears his glasses, his eyes change from green to light brown.

With joining the Digimon Accidental Tactics squad comes a uniform. The Justice coat is an addition to Rich’s outfit. The coat is a white hoodie with the word “Justice” Stitched across the back in black letters. The coat is not just for keeping Rich warm however, it is also for defense. This coat is made with a Digital iron Mined from the Digital World which makes it useful in combat. Rich usually keeps this in his backpack for he does not like wearing it all the time. He only wears the Justice Coat during combat and in cold terrains such as the cold parts in the Digital World.

Rich's outfit mainly consists of a pair of dark blue jeans with a black belt around them to hold them up, A black shirt with a big green shamrock in the middle of it. For his head, the Yankees baseball cap that Rich wears remains stationary on his head. For more additional warmth, Rich wears his dark blue Justice coat with the hood up, but the jacket is unzipped. On his feet, Rich sports black and white jordans The outfit becomes complete with a blue and black drawstring backpack with the Gold Team logo on it. He keeps the bag to remember the good times he has had in the past.

On his left wrist is the infiniwatch. The inifiniwatch is a storage device with a few special features. The watch has fused itself to Rich's wrist, causing it to remain there forever. The watch is able to store his mercenaries, his regular items, and has direct access to the digivice IC inside.

Power Share: Due to Rich being in the body of his 7 year old self, there have been instances where he has needed to return to his normal body. The duo has found a way to temporally do this by taking some of Leo's energy.

7 Year old Appearance: Rich looks as he did as a child. His clothes tend to grow and shrink with him as he changes from 7 to 17. The only thing that doesn't seem to change is his hat. It remains just as big as it was when he was a teenager, causing it to be way to big for the child.

Personal History: When Rich was first born, he almost died from a rare disease in his lungs; His parents were very worried about him and his well being. Rich was not expected to make it out of the operating room alive, but by some miracle he did. This left him battling with a severe case of asthma. The asthma has affected him throughout his life Even being in the the hospital a few times. one of these was triggered by a car accident where he came out with a cut across his chest He can't run that long without the use of his inhaler but he puts that aside while playing sports.

Rich had a terrible experience when he was nine years old when one of his friends died of leukemia. This left Rich feeling depressed and lonely for a little while. He then made a vow that he would try to help people as much as he could to evade another situation like that. Since then, Rich has tried to withstand his promise to the fullest.

One day, Rich’s father came home from work. He called a family meeting for the family. He then stated that he had got a promotion in his real estate agent job. There was a small celebration in the household, then Mr. Allen added in that the family would be moving to Japan to get a better lifestyle for the family. This statement took the family by surprise. Rich and Mike both protested, but their pleas were met with no answer. Within a few months, the family moved to Shinyuba, Japan.

The house the family moved into was a 2 story house with a basement and garage. Inside, there was a room for everybody plus a guest room. Rich was able to get most of the things that he had in New York in his new room, including satellite television so he could watch American T.V. along with the rest of the family once more. His parents also bought him a bike so he could ride around Tokyo without having to ask for rides to and from places.

His first contact with the digital world was when he was listening to music on his computer when a digi-egg appeared on the screen. Thinking it was a pop-up he attempted to close the page, but the egg suddenly came out of the computer along with a black and blue D-3. The stunned teen did not know what to say to this occurrence. He knew nobody would believe him if he had tried to tell him something came out of his computer. Obviously this egg was for Rich, so he knew he could not get it taken away. He had to keep this egg and strange device a secret from his parents, so he hid the egg away in his closet to make sure nobody would find it. He went to bed that night having strange dreams of omelets and giant birds that could hatch from an egg that big.

When Rich woke up the next morning, there was a small flaming sun staring back at him. Alarmed, Rich started to freak out a little bit, and then he remembered about the egg. The American teen calmed down and walked over to the closet to find the egg missing. The small sun creature claimed to be from another world and he kept calling himself a Digimon. The little Sun identified himself as a Sunmon named Leo. Leo then went on to explain about Digimon and the digital world to his new tamer. All of this was new to Rich, but he quickly understood what was going on. He then had a thought about this little creature could help him with his goals of being a hero.

Since Rich has met Leo, they have had many experiences in the digital world. A lot of the digital world has been mapped out, but there are still many places that Leo and Rich have not explored. One of the places that they have deemed unsafe is a riverfront. The duo was weary of the riverfront when they found many signs around, but they pushed on. Soon, they found themselves face to face with an angry Seadramon. Though they ended up running away, Leo was able to digivolve to Rookie level for the first time.

Another instance in the digital world they had that was great was meeting Ryusuke and Jasmine and their digimon partners. They had gotten attacked at a beach in the digital world. The attackers were an army of Digimon that were demanding weapons back from Jasmine and Ryu. Even thought Rich did not have any weapons, he fought alongside his friends in a heated battle that almost took Rich and Leo’s life. Leo was able to digivolve to the next level which at the time was champion for the first time.

During their time in the digital world, Rich and Leo had made a name for themselves. They attracted the attention of a teenaged boy named Max Arkidos. Max was the current leader of the Digimon Accidental Tactics Squad. Through a series of events, Rich had become the leader of his own squadron of tamers and digimon under the alias Gold Team. The team continued to keep the human world safe, till it eventually broke up.

From the ashes of D.A.T.S rose a new team Rich hadd created. This team was a group of masked vigilantes and digimon that kept order in both the human and digital world. Everyone on the team was outfitted in a different colored power ranger suit constructed from 'borrowed' D.A.T.S technology. This team was dubbed Morphin' Time, but was short lived and eventually every member went their separate ways.

The 16 year old boy was once normal until one day in the digital world. He had to make a pit stop and ended up accidentally relieving himself on a clockmon. The clockmon got angry at the apologetic tamer. Not one of his best moves, but Rich went to insult the digimon for not accepting his pleas. This got the clockmon furious in which he turned the 16 year old back to his youth to teach him a lesson in respect.

The transformation has become problematic for the tamer. Rich needs to hide this from his parents, which has become difficult. He is now too small to ride his lightcycle by himself, he is too small for his bike in the human world, and he has lost his strength he built up as a teenager. The only clue to turning him back to normal resides in Leo. The duo has to figure out what that means.

After a year of traveling the digital world, Rich has finally emerged into the light again. Rich and Leo are thought to be dead by friends and family that knew him before he was changed. He has been living in the digital world.
