Description
Between Light and Dark. This is the only way to describe the Orlando Royal Knight called 'Riku'.

His desire to protect his friends, so many years ago, made him take a wrongful choice, allowing him to be (temporarily) corrupted by the Heartless.

After a particularly extensive amount of shenanigans from both his friends and himself, he came back to being a hero. A hero, using dark magics, his tactics a mite more morally grey.

Of course, on Coreline, the 'grey' part of his morals may be easier to look over, but the magics he uses at times... well, depending on who you ask, they may answer with anything from him just adopting what he knows best to being tainted by Chaos and better off killed with fire.

Nevertheless, he's still doing good. As one of the top Knights of the Kingdom of Orlando, he's constantly out on the field, performing recon duty and taking out those bad guys who are too close to perform dastardly plans to hurt his protectorate. His performance has been... markedly... high, ever since he took his office.

It has to be. There are few other ways for him to prove that he's a 'good guy', other wise. (Other than, maybe, the words of those he's closest to-and even then, more hard-line factions will just assume that they're being fooled).

Between Light and Dark. On the edge.

There's no other place he'd prefer to be.

(As for the suit design.... well, it's kind of a hybrid between his KH1 'Heartless' form and his KH2/'normal' suit. Way To Dawn was chosen specifically because, well, it looks like something you'd give to a Chaos worshipper/equally 'bad' guy ('Soul Eater', sure, has an 'evil' name-but it looks just a mite more 'normal' (except for the black blade)).
