Deep beneath the
Amazon lied the kingdom of the mermen. One day, the peaceful stillness
of this aquatic empire was shattered by a tremendous earthquake, destroying
the entire empire. The merman emperor, Rikuo, was left alone, washed up
on the beach of the great river. As soon as he came to, he sensed that
an evil presence had entered Earth's atmosphere, causing the earthquake.
To search for the source of this evil power, Rikuo takes his first steps
toward an unknown world... the shore. The vast ocean gave Rikuo and his
family new hope and uncertainties, because it is incomparable in size to
secluded swamps where they were used to living. However, his parents have
confidence in the water kingdom, and its creations will thrive long into
the future whenever they look at their excellently growing Alba, the only
son of the family. His curiosity has him swimming around in the unknown
world almost constantly. But, one day, Alba just disappeared. Rikuo frantically
went on an extensive search and found an unnatural dark space, blocked
by a shockingly fast ocean current. "Alba must be there... I'll come get
you, Alba!" Rikuo goes into the space in order to rescue Alba; lacking
and consideration for his own safely and sensing the intensely evil spirit
emitting energy from the enoby space.

Comment:
Compared to many of the other characters
in the Darkstalkers series, Rikuo comes off kinda boring in some ways,
namely his moves and personality... Just bleh. He's interesting though,
and I suppose he fits into the series fairly well as a stereotype.
