Hometown: Baterilla, South Blue
Personality: Rick isn't a very moral or caring person, rather he cares as long as he has money as it's what spins the world around in his opinion, he believes that with moral views aside, there is much money to be made. However, he isn't totally inhumane. After a certain experience in his history, he is slightly more sensitive to what people think about him.
However, he finds affectionate moments a bit too much to his liking, and he would rather not spend any more time close to another as needed. With the past few years however after his experiences with Lady Ann in his history, partners that constantly come up every now and then throughout his jobs, he might start to be more comfortable with and actually start to show a more friendly attitude and side to them, but he tries to hide this as he doesn't want to appear weak or doesn't want to be taken advantage off.
- History:
Rick didn't know his parents, he had a uncle who raised Rick until he was 9, when he was suddenly murdered by a man with a flintlock right in-front of him, the man took Rick with him forcefully and apparently Rick's uncle owed the man money, but he didn't pay on time. So he gave Rick a timeline to raise the amount that his uncle owed him or otherwise, he would sell Rick into slavery. Rick felt conflicted about this and couldn't muster up the courage to open about this to anyone as he felt alone. He eventually did build himself up however to do whatever means to raise money, and surprisingly he was good at it. Being a young child on the streets made people turn a head and gave money to him, and he paid the man on time.
The man was surprised at how fast Rick was at raising the money, and in such short time too. He decided to hire Rick to do whatever stunts he could to raise more money and Rick would get a percentage of the cuts, in exchange Rick was allowed to stay at the mans home who taught Rick about how the world worked, and that money dictated everything. It's what determined anything in the end is what he told Rick. The years went by and Rick raised money for any errand or job people hired him to do, whether it was legal or not. However, he didn't take any jobs that involved murder. Rick pulled occasional stunts that extorted money from the public people who came to see them, and he was eventually kicked out by the population. The man who handled Rick's job just abandoned him, and didn't care. Rick moved to the next island, which was known as Briss Kingdom.
Rick was on the streets again, but this time due to no longer being a child, not many took pity on him. At this point, he was 16. He was to clear away from the street however, apparently a young prince were to arrive and meet with the princess of the Philip family, the ruling family of the country. He heard from some shady people however that the prince did arrive early but was betting away in a tavern somewhere. He followed the man to a basement of a house that had all types of shady characters. One at a table showed a man in a well-dressed robe, which Rick was surprised about. He looked nearly identical to Rick and around the same age too, which gave him a crazy idea. He tried to invite the Prince to a private room for poker, but instead the prince said "Oh... you like what you see? come with me." Rick was disgusted, but whatever got him to the room. Rick had to strip along with the Prince just to keep him from being suspicious, until Rick knocked him into the head with a nearby blunt object, and took his clothes. He tried to fix up his hair to just look like the prince, he tied up the prince and locked him in the cabinet.
He knew that the prince might not be locked for very long. So he had a crack-shot chance of pretending to be the prince and maybe getting away with it with whatever he can nab off the royalty. When he went out of the house and into the street, he was immediately stopped by a well-dressed man in a suit which turned out to be a butler and he put gel in Rick's hair, making him look far more presentable. He said "I don't know where you've been. but it' time for you to meet Lady Ann." He was escorted to the mansion, everyone really believed he was the prince from some other kingdom, he was led to a castle garden to meet a lady who was sitting down. When she took a glance at Rick, she just looked the other way, it seems that she was disappointing. Rick sat down on the opposite of the table of where she was sitting at, and she said "Ugh, how could you call yourself a noble? you look like you just came from the street in a garbage bin." then Rick said "Oh sheesh, thanks bitch." then the lady's jaw dropped at what Rick said, Rick thought he screwed up, until the ladies jaw drop eventually turned to a laugh. "Wow, all the other noble men try too hard to be nice in attempts to woo me, no one's ever called me that before."
Rick was surprised, he thought he was going to be thrown out the door for sure, but it looked like she was enjoying Rick's company. She then asked "You're not actually a nobleman, are you?" Rick shaked his head in disagreement. "Nope, I just look familiar to the poor guy, I just took these robes and everyone thinks I'm the prince, crazy right?" it seems that Rick piqued the lady's interest, she walked him around the castle to enjoy the luxuries that the royalty received, after so long, he felt like he was having fun. An emotion he hasn't felt since his childhood. However, this would eventually come to an end when the prince eventually broke free, the princess had receive news that the "proper" prince was found and whoever she was hanging with is an impostor. Both Rick and Lady Ann were upstairs when this happened, and helped him silently escape through the back of the castle. She passed her Den-Den number to Rick and he ran off. He was pretty sure that he was banned from the island for now, but he forgot to actually steal something from the castle.
He was pretty sure he was getting a bounty, but was surprised to learn that he didn't. He had got into contact with Lady Ann via the den-den mushi and learned that the Prince refused to believe that Rick looked like him, and learned that they weren't going to put a bounty on Rick as they don't know who he is for starters, and because of how he looked too similar to the prince, bounty hunters would come after the prince. So Rick was saved the luxury of receiving a bounty poster.
Nonetheless, he moved onto the next island and just accepted that side-adventure for what it was, fun. A luxury he doesn't have that much, but now... he is motivated to get money and power even more then before, he feels obligated to Lady Ann and believes that if he were to build up fame, power and the money, he would be considered a fine catch by her father for Rick to meet Lady Ann once again, and without trouble and with express permission to have fun with her again. So he continued his dishonest stunts and scams over the years, but it was to build up money. It's what he needed to meet Lady Ann one day again.

Re: Rick Theirin
Fri Jul 28, 2017 2:08 pmAs his hilarious as Rick's history is, you should come up with some sort of explanation (even if half-assed) as to why there is no bounty on Rick for assaulting a prince. This history would be perfect if he was going to be a pirate, but a bounty hunter should probably try to avoid getting a bounty on himself. xD
One idea is to have the prince simply refuse to believe Rick looked like him. That way, they wouldn't really be able to draw up a proper picture for him. As for his butler, he would not admit Rick looked like him out of care for his master. Because if they put up a bounty poster of a man who looked like the prince, some bounty hunters might mistakenly come after the prince in the future. And Ann wouldn't tell on Rick because... bow-chicka-bow-wow.
