Biography

• Early life
• Season 1

Little is known about Richard's past life. His entire persona seems like an anomaly compared to others in the Unikingdom, perhaps hinting that he comes from a different location than the others. Despite this, he still managed to befriend Unikitty, Puppycorn, Dr. Fox, and Hawkodile at some point. He even took on the task of being Unikitty’s servant.

He would later join a game night competition with his friends, the annoyance of Unikitty and Puppycorn's rivalry making him start to dislike them. Despite this, he won four separate nights.

Richard spies on his ‘girlfriend’.

At some point, Richard started spying on a girl who suspiciously looked a lot like him, but with the addition of hair. He would later deem her his apparent girlfriend, despite the fact that the two had never talked to each other.

First adventures

Spoooooky Game

On another game night, he was unsure of playing yet again, thanks to the competitions of the royal siblings. Bugged by Unikitty and Puppycorn's arguing about who would win, he left the room to get snacks. This is what saved him from being sucked into the Spoooooky Game, though caused him to wonder where the others went to.

“Princess, what happened?”

He would later eat the cookies for himself, and spitting them out from shock at the sudden reappearance of his friends, especially due to the fact that they still kept their appearances from the game.

Sparkle Matter Matters

One day, while scheduling Unikitty through her itinerary for the day, he had to chase the princess through the castle to list all the things that needed to be done, as she kept declaring all of it boring, eventually losing her when she promised to do the boring things after saying hi to the citizens.

Richard will not be happy no matter what.

Later, when Unikitty realized that Richard had never produced any sparkle matter, Richard was summoned by the princess. Still focused on having Unikitty finish her schedule, he insisted he was fine and had just been around for a long while, and when asked if she could do anything, Richard responded that the princess could finish her to-do list. This caused Unikitty to make the first thing on it cheering Richard up. She took him through a cheek squeeze, a parade, a tea party, a rave, and a roller coaster, but nothing made him happier.

Later, he was hit by Dr. Fox's sparkle matter serum, forcing him to be happy, much to the surprise and joy of Unikitty, Dr. Fox, Puppycorn, and Hawkodile when it revealed it worked. However, thanks to bubblegum and glue added to the serum beforehand, his sparkle matter started clumping together, growing giant and embedding into the castle. A giant star-shaped particle is enough to scare Unikitty, Puppycorn, and Dr. Fox off.

Later, a negativity-based serum was created to counteract Richard's positive one, as he continues to launch giant sparkle matter particles. However, because this was made with anger sparkle matter, it puts him into a blind rage, creating giant monsters out of his newfound angry sparkle matter. Once Unikitty realizes that serums will not fix Richard, she goes up to him, as he angrily insisted he was fine before. After an actual apology from the princess, her calming aura counteracts his angry one, and he is returned back to normal.

Earnestly thanking the princess for caring about him so much, a paperclip floats out of him: his first real sparkle matter particle. Despite everything being back to normal, the castle and kingdom are in a wreck from the giant particles that he had launched out before.

No Day Like Snow Day

During Snow Day, he was assigned to be the judge of the snow fort building competition. While finding the rival snow fort a great build, the addition of a dancing snowman, which was really Master Frown, was enough to bump the team's snow fort the best, further confirmed when Master Frown's struggle to escape created an impromptu light and fireworks show.

Thanks to siding with his friends, he was dragged into their side of a snowball fight. He would later cheer on the thought-to-be snowman for winning the fight for them. Joining in Dr. Fox's hot cocoa recipe, he declared it "like Gam Gam used to make".

When Mr. Snowbuttons needed a location to stay without melting, he went with the others to the North Pole to send it on its way on an ice floe. He and Hawkodile would confide with each other that they both knew that Master Frown was inside the snowman.

Action Forest

During a picnic tea party, he called out Hawkodile's bravery in defending the picnic over trivial things as unnecessary. When Hawkodile was attacked by a mysterious force, he and the others ran off to see what had happened. Once the attacker left with Hawkodile's sunglasses, Hawkodile explained to them that the attacker was Eagleator, a former friend of him that had sworn revenge. Richard, along with Puppycorn and Dr. Fox, thought the story was amazing, while Unikitty found it sad. Hawkodile insisted that he had to fight Eagleator, but he was unable to not being able to see. As such, he recruited Richard and the others to fight for him. Thanks to their lack of fighting abilities, Hawkodile took him and the other to the Action Forest to train.

Through a training montage, Richard gained an eyepatched motorcyclist persona, known as "The Man of Few Words". Later, at the dojo, Richard used this persona to attempt to fight Eagleator, but it proved worthless, as he was not taught any fighting skills. In anger, Eagleator sent out a shockwave to knock Richard and the others away, thus removing him from the fight.

Kaiju Kitty

Richard is not happy with being the appendix of a giant robot.

When a slime monster attacked the kingdom, Richard was one of the few introduced to the Shining MechaKitty Turbo V. Despite the others being excited, Richard was more concerned who paid for it. Despite this, he joined in to pilot the robot, being the appendix control, much to his annoyance and exasperation. As such, he played no role in the fight with the monster.

Once the slime monster was defeated by giving it a friend, Richard suggested the robot should be put back into storage, to the protests of the others. When he questioned why they would still need the robot, the others pulled various non-combat heroic stunts, which just caused more chaos, as everyone ignored Richard's protests. The others would spend time playing and doing other tasks in the robot, while Richard continued to ignore them. This would continue for many months.

Throughout this time, Richard still wanted this to end. He complained how the robot was starting to smell, being the only one to keep his quarters clean. After another demand to put the robot away, Unikitty turned on the locking mechanism, while also breaking it. When the team was alerted to a monster in the middle of the town, Richard tried to explain to Unikitty that the monster was the robot, but was ignored multiple times. When Unikitty realized the truth, Richard tried to get her to unlock the robot, which was too late to do. After attempting to destroy the robot by fighting it, Richard reluctantly joined in to launch the Mega Robot Giggle Missile, which the robot flew into. Despite the explosion, nothing happened to the robot, much to his annoyance.

Richard later realized his role in the appendix was to house the self-destruct button. Despite exasperation, Unikitty demanded him to press it, thus destroying the robot and launching the pilots out to safety. Unlike the others, he showed no remorse for the demise of the mech.

Later, he and Dr. Fox addressed the audience with a public service announcement on the appendix.

Fire & Nice

During a Problem Fixy Day, Richard protested Unikitty making such a big deal out of the festivities. When Unikitty caused a giant outburst thanks to Master Frown, he hid behind the throne in defense.

Later, he helped clean up the throne room, only to be distracted in confusion by Puppycorn's distraction dance. He would eventually take over the dance, though his moves were limited.

Later, he would tend to an exhausted Unikitty. Much to his shock, she would take on Master Frown's ridiculous requests. Once Dr. Fox revealed that Angry Kitty had escaped, he and the others went to see the pleas of help from people that had angered Unikitty that day.

When Master Frown was revealed to be hiding from Angry Kitty, Richard and the others used him as bait to lure her in. As the first plan failed, Richard was part of Plan B, dropping a cage on Angry Kitty. Unfortunately, this made her even more angry, as she nearly attacked Richard and the others, until Unikitty stepped in to stop her.

Rock Friend

One day, while Richard was cleaning his room, Puppycorn barged in, trying to get Richard to guess what number he was thinking of, while also breaking some of his record collection. Richard explained that he was unable to play with the prince until his room was spotless, causing Puppycorn to rush off, breaking more of his stuff.

The next day, he would find half of his body removed from him in order to make Friend Guy. However, he was unaware of what had happened, only noticing that the others had had parts removed from him. Despite this, he let Puppycorn keep the half, via the persuasion of Unikitty.

Later, he would be present to ask where the remainder of his body was, only for Unikitty to insist that everything was okay.

Kitchen Chaos

During a regular chore regiment through the kitchen, while the others made a mess, Richard ended up cracking his back from too much physical stress. Despite the fact that he insisted it was nothing, the others insisted that he got plenty of rest. More concerned about who will take care of the kitchen cleanup, Unikitty insisted she and the others would, sending Richard to his room for some bedrest.

Finding nothing to do, Richard put on one of his records, The History of the Paperclip, in an attempt to relax.

Hearing Unikitty's screams while she was stuck in paint, Richard attempted to leave his bed to check on her, only for her to burst through his wall and insist everything was okay. This left rubble on his bed and a piece landing on his record, causing it to skip repeatedly at "farther and farther". Attempting to move and fix the record only caused him to hurt his back more, leaving him stuck listening to it.

Richard in bed, aching.

Later, his record was still stuck skipping. Tired of this, he took a piece of rubble from his bed and threw it at the player, only to cause it to skip worse, stuck repeating "fart" over and over. Annoyed, Richard struggled to pull himself up, only for the stress to cause his back to snap back into shape, healing him.

Heading out into the hallway, he called for Unikitty to say that he was feeling better, as he headed towards the kitchen. When he arrived in the kitchen, he found it spotless. He thanked the others for doing the job, mentioning how surprised he was. When Unikitty thanked him for always being there to clean up after them, he commented that it was his duty, though it wouldn't hurt if they cleaned up after themselves once in a while.

While the others laughed it off and left the kitchen, Puppycorn quickly returned, asking where his basketball is, only for the piece of paper he had in his mouth to shoot out, causing a chain reaction that left the kitchen filthy again. In wordless despair, Richard simply stuffed himself into the garbage can.

Crushing Defeat

One day, as a cupcake monster attempted to attack the castle, Richard, from a watching distance, complained about Dr. Fox's latest cupcake recipe. When the monster was defeated, he was hit with the frosting that Hawkodile's attack shot out.

The next morning, Richard enjoyed a waffle breakfast with the others. When Hawkodile came in, and it was revealed he had a crush, Richard decided to help Hawkodile deal with it, since he would not say who his crush was.

Richard reveals his ‘girlfriend’ to Hawkodile.

After Puppycorn failed to help Hawkodile, Richard was Hawkodile's next option. Explaining about his "girlfriend", who he had never actually talked to, he still insisted their love was real. This confused Hawkodile, which made Richard realize that Hawkodile had a lot to learn about love, so he grabbed supplies, instructing Hawkodile to send a formal declaration of love via a mourning dove and write three poems. Realizing that he did not have the time for this, Hawkodile left, much to Richard's protests, as they had not even reached the stage of rhyming couplets.

The next day, he joined his friends for cupcakes, though he only had a picture of a cupcake with him instead of actually eating it. When Hawkodile nervously lied about who his crush was, he ended up sweating all over Richard, watching as Hawkodile lied that FeeBee was his crush.

Wishing Well

When the Wish Coins were plotting revenge on the people that had thrown them down the well years ago, Richard found disbelief in Unikitty's idea to use wishes to fight wishes.

Despite this, helped Unikitty get new wishes to stop the coins. After star, 11:11, and birthday wishes failed (even though this one would have worked, as it was Richard's birthday yesterday), three new wishes were collected. Although unsure of the strength of the new wishes, Richard still saw them off. He would later become audience to the brutal fight the extra wishes put against the wish coins.

After the coins were disposed of, he shared a laugh with the others, only to quickly grew nervous after the extra wishes came back to continue their attack.

Hide N' Seek

During an annual hide and seek tournament, Richard was not pleased in joining, as he felt the game was pointless. His attempts to address this went unnoticed, thanks to Unikitty pointing out how boring he was. When the game officially started, Richard attempted to get out of it, by claiming paperwork, but Unikitty insisted that he played.

Throughout the game, Richard would attempt to be found by Unikitty. However, she ignored all of these attempts. When she thought a cinderblock that she knocked off a cliff was him, Richard attended the funeral.

Richard suddenly appears.

This caused the others to think he was a ghost, much to his annoyance. Mentioning that he had been there the entire time, Unikitty realized that Richard's monotone and boring personality left him blending in. While not sure if he should take this as a compliment or not, Unikitty congratulated him, while also appointing him as the new "it" in the game. Richard still protested after this, complaining that he did not even want to play the game.

Little Prince Puppycorn

During a near-riot of the citizens, Richard made sure to keep Puppycorn away from the issue, stating it as "royal business". Later, when Unikitty headed backstage, Puppycorn commented how he wished he could be royal like his sister, confusing Richard. Puppycorn then mentioned he always thought he was an alien, much to Richard's confused annoyance. After nearly having his hopes dashed, Unikitty made the split decision to make Puppycorn the ruler of the kingdom. Richard attempted to comment on how it was a bad idea, but Unikitty quickly shot him down. Richard, despite being impressed at first by the laws Puppycorn created, thought the citizens would bore of this fast.

The next morning, the loud music and fireworks managed to keep him awake through the night. Rebuffing Unikitty's claims that it was like a slumber party by commenting that people have to sleep for it to be a slumber party, he was forced to give Puppycorn a chance. However, once the fun started to have its repercussions, Richard tried to comment on how terrible the ideas were, which Unikitty interrupted. After Puppycorn left to do more duties, Richard bluntly pulled Unikitty aside to bring up how bad the kingdom has gotten.

That night, during Puppycorn's play to use an excuse to bring Unikitty back into the ruling position, he complained about the ending that Puppycorn had written for it.

Pet Pet

During a day in the forest, a small yellow blob was discovered by Richard and the others. Pointing out it did not belong to them, Richard attempted to get the others to ignore it, but they insisted on it being a pet. Richard pointed out the last times Unikitty had brought pets home had ended in disaster, but Unikitty insisted it would be different. Richard eventually relented, much to his own annoyance.

At the castle, Richard disciplined the newly-named Pet Pet for getting on the furniture, as he had not been trained yet. Richard then left to get pet insurance, and made sure that Unikitty and the others had Pet Pet trained when he came back.

When he did came back, he found the castle nearly destroyed. While looking for the others, Unikitty pretended to be Pet Pet and brought Richard back in. Seemingly falling for the disguise, Richard disciplined "Pet Pet", saying that Puppycorn and Dr. Fox needed to train "him".

Richard then judged "Pet Pet's" tricks. While many other tricks worked, Puppycorn's suggestion of a triple backflip corkscrew failed, causing Richard to discipline further, giving the mechanical squirt bottle to Dr. Fox to do the same. He then noticed that Unikitty was not around, as this was her idea in the first place. Seemingly falling for the DoppelKitty, he then left to organize his record collection, instructing Dr. Fox to have Pet Pet trained when he got back.

Through various tasks, Richard judged "Pet Pet", admitting he was impressed. However, there was one thing that needed to be done to make it "official". Taking "Pet Pet" to Pets-a-Bunga, he led "him" to the Chippy 3000 to be "chipped, clipped, and snipped", to make a proper pet. This caused Unikitty to snap, throwing off the disguise. Richard admitted that he was shocked that she was able to keep that up for so long, much to Unikitty's surprised. Instead of being angry, he said that he was proud of Unikitty, and that she was ready to have a "real pet".

Hawkodile then rushed in, revealing a non-moving Pet Pet. His mourning triggered multiple Pet Pets to go off, revealing it as a toy, which Richard explained came free with a bag of pet food. Despite this, Unikitty and the others treated Pet Pet as a real pet, as Richard dryly gave in, letting all of them have one, while he was given one too.

Background Information

• Richard was originally meant to be sand blue with a flat, studless top, as opposed to grey with studs - like his final design.

Trivia

• He is the only main character to not be an animal. Rather, he is a 1x3 LEGO brick. As such, he is also the only main character to not have an animal-based name. Instead, he has a proper name.
• Him holding a clipboard in the main title sequence may suggest a role of keeping things in check around the kingdom and castle. This was later confirmed to be the case.
• Richard is older than the rest of the gang, and is the only one to be a full-grown adult. Thus, he is in charge of the castle as well as Unikitty, Puppycorn, Dr. Fox and Hawkodile.
