= Behind the Name =
Pronounced Ree- VI or Reev – EYE, it’s the Romanization of the name Levi when translated directly from Kanji (and one of two very common mistranslations). As a double meaning it also means Rival in Indonesian which sums up Rivai’s mindset towards many things. Plus it’s tradition - his fathers’ and sister are named after two great fictional characters so he had to follow suit. Freiheit means freedom which is a nod towards Libertas, Rivai’s Grandad and his first names roots. Hazard of cause is the family name. However he’s often referred to by his nickname Ravioli, a fandom reference to Levi, but it’s also due to his obsession with all forms of Ravioli shaped pastas which he eats raw. = Gender in detail = Biologically male, and it doesn’t feel the need to identify as anything else. Orientation wise it’s unclear to most, but Rivai does seem to have an eye for the ladies, however, favors intelligence above all else, so Sapiosexual as well. = Birthday/ Age/ Nationality detail = 14 human/bean years old He was born on the 4th of December in the Northern Hemisphere (America), and is a Early Winter baby . His nationality is a mix, although pure-blood American he's half African American inherited from Sollux's side. From Strider's side he's 2 thirds of a Quarter Indigenous Australian, and the rest an unknown European American background. = Detailed Description = Arising from a world where grooming and good hygiene are a daily routine, coupled with two fathers who fought over his and his sister's hair styles, it's no wonder he developed a very clean and presentable appearance. It's ingrained in his soul to not skip a shower, or gel his hair. His sleek black and coloured fur are silky more than fluffy to the touch, being a mix of two coat lengths. - wip = Build/size = Gangly but under the short spectrum height wise. He's a developing teen with the inklings of broad shoulders under his fluffy coat. He's just over 2ft in height in quad form. = Items = - Wears a pair of red tinted sunglasses based of the homestuck character Terezi’s, they were given to him by his fathers since any kid deemed cool enough to be a StriSol child needs kick ass shades. - Dons a white cravat as part of his namesake, he thinks it’s stylish and it keeps him warm and snuggly when his fathers aren’t around. Child Items he till keeps around - A Levi plush toy he used to snuggle ( Levi pretty much represented huggles to him, the irony lived). - Also has an Eren Titan plush. - And last but not least, collects Figmas and Nendoroids despite his age and plays a form of anime soldiers with them - still collects these along with Scale figures. |
= Personality =
-Serious Badassery-
Having Sollux and Strider as your fathers guarantied such a result, then again Rivai was born with a solemn approach and a “I don’t want to listen to your stupid” mindset. Sometimes he takes what people say seriously and at a literal value not understanding the finer points of casual interaction, so he remains silent instead of looking like a fool. And to be frank he doesn’t want to lower himself down to other people’s levels and talk gossip.
He’s also developed a snarky attitude towards others which he finds totally acceptable, this manifests itself into his signature mannerism of not looking at people while they’re talking, preferring to stare at whatever it was he was doing beforehand. This lends him serious badassery points. However he doesn’t do this on purpose, his dead-pan stare is much more uncomfortable and he knows it, his eyes bore into people’s souls and make the air tense.
In general Rivai is unapproachable, a quick quip ready on his tongue to drive moronic individuals away.
-Calm-
Rivai might be a nasty little cretin but his serious ways don’t breach into a temper. He’s laid back and chill on the inside which appears as an aloof disposition on the outside. He’ll insult you outright, be full of smart remarks and snark, even swear, but it’s always done in a collected manner, his composure unruffled by no one. Under pressure he’s the best guy you could have around, he has a level head and a clear goal for an escape plan. The bad to this is he can appear cold, maybe even a little “inhuman” which only adds to his unlikable personality. While cracking him might be one of those impossible missions it can happen, and just like Strider it’s not a delightful sight to behold. He’ll cry beforehand, the emotions so pent up they brim over the edge. But mark my words, you better run for fear of his unbridled, cold wrath once he’s done wiping the tears away.
-Charming-
Why yes, indeed he can be when he wishes to. Rivai is not incapable of some suave tendencies. In those moments he’ll flirt with the ladies and guys as his Brozilla does, being down right fantastic and delightful. The most notable times when he uses his smooth moves is when he’s negotiating or attempting to explain a situation to placate someone, in which case his calm demeanour shines through - Although if the act is replicated his nerve shatters and he becomes adorably bashful – imagine a modest kirito, now cross him with a puppy and you essentially have Rivai.
In fact dig under his fur and you’ll discover a gentle soul, he might not express himself well around others, nor openly show much affection, but won’t protest to friends using him as a snuggle pillow or being hugged. Sure you might not receive one in return but at least he lets you. He owns one of the kindest, caring hearts.

-Free-
The rules of society are shackles to Rivai. Do not do this, stay away from that, you fill out this form to get to another form if you ever wish to be anything in this world. The demands of a complex life weigh on his mind and he just wishes he could be free to explore the way he wants to explore, without running into people and their petty mindsets. What infuriates him the most is the flawed system of justice; the way criminals can get away from heinous deeds . . . So, he sneaks out at night, feeling the wind in his hair as he skips around on rooftops. He sits and listens to his police radio scanner, concocting illegal ideas in his mind for a future self to act upon. He’s just biding his time until he’s big and powerful enough to be able to do something about it, to break out of his confines. At heart, he is free.
-Studious and Conscientious--
Rivai is the master guru senpai nerd of the otaku and geek community, he can rattle off long answers to maths problems like a dorky brain child – only he makes it sound stylish. He takes his study to a whole new degree, finding pleasure in amassing knowledge whether it be trivial facts or hardcore science. Learning is a release of worldly pressures and food for his brain. Being Studious also attributes to the way he goes about many tasks, being diligent and reflective even if it’s making a sandwich; it has to be a boss sandwich. Most times it heightens his already serious nature from the outlook, and many take him (excluding his teachers) as a child who can’t relax. To anyone who knows him, this is far from the truth. Although driven, he knows his bodies limits and enjoys procrastinating. Due to his level-headed poise, he’s always thinking outside the box while, ironically, using the rules set as scaffolding to break free from mundane thinking and use creativity.
Being Conscientious is a trait specifically picked up from his Father Sollux. Rivai is a meticulous bean, he sees all and does all to his upmost ability, hence that boss sandwich. He might be a free thinker who breaks the rules, but this is not to say he flaunts authority figures at every turn, quite the opposite. He thinks of everyone’s safety first, and calculates the path of least resistance. If someone is doing something stupid or dangerous around him he’ll be the first to pull them up on it, and maybe even show them how it’s properly done; “f*cking amateurs”. He’s also hardworking, when his mind is set on a task wild elephants won’t stop him from completing it. His mind is a hive of attentive neurons and you can depend on him to be at your doorstep when he says even if he’s stuck in traffic and must think of a clever trick out of his predicament.
However, unlike Sollux, his attention to detail can breach into the shady side of what’s acceptable and his need to be free comes knocking. He’s a master mind who’ll never be caught by normal officer’s if he ever decides to turn to the dark side. . .

It’s the beginnings of a deep voice like Strider with a glowing cadence, not so much smooth in the traditional sense, but it’s certainly pleasing to the ear. He has a generalized American accent and uses slang like the rest of his family along with the ever-present bad language. = Pouch Innards = |
