Riki is a Nopon mage that lives in the Frontier village, with his six children. He's recruited by Shulk and his friends to track defeat the Mechon and find the truth about the Monado. When Galeem destroyed the worlds to make the World of Light, Riki was turned into a spirit. After being saved by the heroes, he used a dojo he can train 1-4 participants in his Strategist style. This style increases the power of special moves, while decreasing all other power stats, promoting a strategic playstyle.
