Rico

Rico is both a character in the roleplay of Ninjas and Pirates, and the person who created him.

The Player
Rico is an Australian Male (we think) who is part of the Admin Team of Ninjas and Pirates. He first started 'officially' roleplaying in 2006, and now spends most of his time GMing on rpol or on the Neverwinter Nights server, StormNexus

Rico is also an amatuer writer, actor and singer. To see some of Rico's work, one can look in to the User Written Fiction section of the Forums, or simply ask him to tell you a story. His stories range from adventures, to psychological exploration and more frequently, yaoi of known members of the ninjasandpirates community. On one occasion, he wrote porn about posting.

Rico can be quick to anger, and generally resorts to randomly banning people when they don't listen, so it is generally a good plan to listen to him. Rico's pet hates are the majority of the internet 'culture', and anybody stupid enough to ignore him. Rico requires his ego stroked at least once every day, and will perform searches for his name to make sure people are still talking to him. Rico goes under many other names. This is because he often creates secondary accounts, which are easily noticed because there cannot possibly exist a human who is that horrible.

The Character
The character, Rico De'vega, has had many incarnations. The original is currently a 30+ year old brawler who is completely immune to all forms of magic and considered a huge asshole, and the only real evil person on a side of flower pickers. He is accepted among them mainly because the idea of Rico being on the other side is horrifying, considering he makes half of the flower pickers cry without being their enemies.

On ninjasandpirates however, Rico is a much more powerful being. He has many minions, mainly trained by he in various shadow arts. Many years ago, he was a Sand Ninja, utilising the sand in a number of unique attacks. More recently, he has lost his physical form and taken on a form of pure shadows.

Rico has had a number of relationships in his time in the land of ninjasandpirates. He has had children with both Scarlet and Letni. When he took over the Overlord position from his apprentice, Sky, Rico formed an alliance of insanity with the Pirate Overlord, Flame. This alliance continued after their terms ended, with the pair becoming known as the Rape Siblings, raping members of their own gender as a fairly standard family outing. Rico's favourite target is one Dark Paladin, and he is known to go in to withdrawals if he does not 'access' him.
