In the world he lives in; Richter is a half-elf, a minority in his world, thus he is often discriminated against because of his race, even though there are no notable physical differences between the two. He starts as a researcher, along with his only friend, a human Aster, studying the world's declining state and trying to associate it with accepted science. Together, they come to the conclusion that an entity is controlling the world's levels of mana (life energy) and they leave the research facility together to test their theory. While searching for this theory, they are often attacked by monsters, and Richter finds himself capable of heavy combat, thanks to his half-elf heritage and extensive knowledge of the creatures. Eventually, he and Aster come to the dwelling of the Spirit, Ratatosk, who is controlling the world's mana by using monsters. Aster and Richter confront Ratatosk about the state of the world, and ask what is causing it and if he can fix it. Ratatosk replies that humans, and half-elves, are to blame for the declining health of the planet, saying they are mere pests leeching off the health of the world. Aster rejects, saying that humans are just as important as anything else, and is killed by Ratatosk, Ratatosk saying to Richter that the world is far better off without that pest. Richter, enraged, fights and defeats Ratatosk, but is unable to kill him, as he is stopped by Ratatosk's servants. Richter then sets out to get stronger, kill Ratatosk, bring back his friend Aster and to find a way to keep out the Demons that Ratatosk kept at bay. Eventually, Richter figures that since his body naturally produces mana, which is toxic to the Demons, that if he can stop his internal clock and enhance his natural amount of mana, he'll be able to use his body to seal the gate to the Demonic Realm, saving the world from the Demons and Ratatosk. However, his plan fails, because he is stopped by a newly strengthened Ratatosk and his acquaintances/servants.
Richter is a detached individual, mostly a result of childhood discrimination for his being a half-elf. He is also bold, and says that he has a bad habit of being "Short with people". He hates when people don't stand up for themselves, and also hates people who have no individuality, and base their personality off of other's. Richter fights using either magic (being a half-elf, he can use magic for combat and healing purposes) or his dual Sword and Axe. He's fairly tall, the tallest in the series, has long red hair and dark green eyes.
"Courage is the magic that turns dreams into Reality"
"You Humans have been discrimanatory towards us Half-Elves for over a thousand years; it's natural for you to feel some fear or distrust"
"I think that emotions lose meaning when they're put into words, that's why I only say what's absolutely necessary"
"My Goal? It's to kill you, and banish Ratatosk from this world!"
