Personality:
To most Richter seem like a cold and cynical person, and criticizes people easily. He seems almost heartless if he is set on doing something he will do so , he also might do it regardless the outcome might be. other then putting people in danger, he detests seeing innocent people in danger of being hurt because of someone else’s foolish actions. At first he may seem to dislike maybe even hate everyone always on guard with a firm posture and attitude.

In truth he doesn’t really dislike anyone, he is just quick to judge someone on a few actions. Thusly not caring to have anything more to do with those people. This may come from his early life. He put up a shield to protect himself, he dislikes getting close to people, relying on them. He has a dreadful temper then forced to show it, but deep down he is a shy person as well.

Richter really dislikes people for not being able to stand up for themselves. He also hates cowards, he isn’t afraid to die fighting, he would never run away from a problem, unless perhaps to prevent someone else from getting hurt. but he also gives a mantra of inspiration to some, "Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality". He will also admit that he is very short on people, but that it does not mean he has something against them. He also will say he has no intentions of changing his way of doing things. Even still his personality remains mostly the same though he has his moments were he is lonely.

History:
As a child, like many half-elf children he was mistreated and the discrimination didn’t even overlook him, it was Aster whom first befriended him. He was also afraid of humans as well, thought he two’s bound made him stronger and unafraid. A while after that..

Richter lived in Tethe'alla as a researcher at the Sybak University, where he and his friend Aster were researching Ratatosk. Together they were in charge of looking into Ratatosk's mana; however, due to a previous betrayal by Mithos' group, the spirit's trust had disappeared.somewhere during this time they met/found Aqua’s core, and the Centurion started to become attached to Richter. Ratatosk grew angry and killed Aster in rage, during one of their ventures out to do some research, and a vengeful Richter cut down Ratatosk and reduced him to his core form, which was taken away by Tenebrae before Ritcher could finish him off. When Richter returned to town, being covered in blood and Aster dead the towns people were quick to blame the half-elf for betraying his friend. After that Richter had held onto the resentment towards Ratatosk and founded the Vanguard in order to search for the Centurion cores.

When first meets Emil while searching to find the Ratatosk Core when he notices that Emil is being picked on by bullies. He took Emil with him because he reminded Richter of his past when he was bullied around for being a half-elf. he also teaches Emil the basics of fighting. After traveling to cave next to the former-Tower of Mana with Emil, he finds Marta and tries to kill her for the Ratatosk's core implanted on her forehead; this when Richter considered to be their enemy.

The party encounters him quite a few times he seemed to ‘let’ Emil or Marta slip away , and even doing as much as allowing Emil to travel with him a few times. while other times he seemed dead set on killing them, before finely he seemed to have had enough and set his plans into motion.

Richter travels to the Ginnungagap to settle things with Ratatosk. When Emil and co. confront him, he uses the powers of the Sacred Stone to transform the mana in his body into flames, granting him extra power. He then attacks the party, but loses. As the demons try to force their way out of the door, Richter tells the party to use the Sacred Stone. Since mana is toxic to demons, it could be used to seal the door for a while. Lloyd then realizes he actually wanted to turn himself into a human sacrifice to seal the Ginnungagap. Richter adds that as an added bonus, Aster would come back to life as well. Richter also bought Emil's facade of being possessed by Ratatosk again after the door was sealed, saving Marta and Lloyd when Emil attacked them. Richter does nothing but watch for the rest of the ending, and is notably surprised to hear Aster's words being said to Emil from Marta.

Since Richter forced open the door, the old seal ceased to function. He then decides to go ahead with his original plan to use himself as a seal. Ratatosk agrees to help, saying that he will change the law of nature so that the world's mana can be used to guard the door, though it would take approximately 1000 years. After the ritual is prepared, Richter remarks how his fate is fitting for his crimes. Ratatosk says that once the world is separated from its dependency on mana, Richter will be released. Richter then asks Ratatosk to allow Emil to live his full life as a human, saying that 'Emil' has already suffered enough, trying to atone for a crime 'Ratatosk' committed. Thus Richter becomes his new vassal for his core and Emil is freed.
