In the best ending route, much like Genkaku in his duel with Hans, Riou ultimately refuses to fight back in his final confrontation with Jowy. * GenerationXerox: Like his adoptive father Genkaku, he wields the Bright Shield rune and is forced into conflict with his best friend who wields the Black Sword. * FourStarBadass: Eventually becomes one during the course of the game. * FightingYourFriend: He is forced to fight against Jowy, following his defection to the Highland Kingdom. Considering Riou fought one-on-one Luca Blight and ''won'', you can't really blame them. Cue the soldiers immediately running away. Viktor bluntly ask them if they "wanna try to fight the leader of the army?". While escaping Muse, Riou and his party are stopped by Highland soldiers, who are actually unaware of what transpired during the false peace treaty conference. * DramaticWind: Later on when you win against Boss Battles and Duel Battles with Riou, instead of spinning his Tonfa, he'll just feel the wind on his face. Coupled with high strenght, he is your best damage dealer when he is not on healing duty. * CriticalHit: Riou has the highest luck stat of the game, and will unleash critical hit after critical hit more often than not. * ConvenientlyAnOrphan: He and Nanami had been left orphaned by previous wars and were adopted by a local hero named Genkaku. Unlike "Buddy Attack", the damage done is lowered (0,75x multiplier), but since both Riou and Tir are very powerful this attack remains a fantastic option. ** "Double Leader Attack": Performed with Tir. Utterly useless (except for the 100% accuracy), and treated as a joke Unite Attack, for good reasons. As long as Nanami is decently geared, this attack packs up quite a punch. except when she unilaterally decides to treat herself to a picnic in the middle of the attack. Brother and sister join together to deliver a flurry of attacks on a single target, dealing double the damage they normally would, at the cost of Nanami getting "Unbalanced" afterwards. ** "Family Attack" or "Leisure Attack": Performed with Nanami. While their attack power isn't boosted (1x multiplier), it is not weakened either, unlike other Unite Attacks, making this attack a DiscOneNuke against everything that is not a boss. * CombinationAttack: Five different ones: His above-average affinity with the Resurrection rune accentuates this. * CombatMedic: With the ] ] ], which grants him several powerful healing spells, making him an invaluable asset against bosses. * TheChosenOne: Chosen by a True Rune, granting him the power to fight against his enemies and eventually become the leader of an army. * ChildSoldier: Like Jowy, Riou is a soldier of the Highland Army's Unicorn Youth Brigade. * ChickMagnet: Richmond will lampshade this trope if you investigate Eilie. * TheCharmer: Unlike Tir before him, Riou has several dialogue choices that compliment many girl/women he came across, like saying that they're cute/pretty, but he didn't go as far as Sheena and generally keeps himself together. * BloodBrothers: With childhood best friend, Jowy. * BigGood: Riou is chosen by destiny to bear the Bright Shield Rune and to oppose Highland by becoming the leader of the Orange Army. * BashBrothers: His unite attack with Jowy - which comes in ''very'' handy in the early parts of the game as it targets all enemies. * BadassFamily: His adoptive father was a war hero, and his sister and he are very skilled at martial arts at a very young age. In the case of he and Hoi, this is amusingly subverted in their unite attack. * BackToBackBadasses: Does this with Jowy, Nanami (unless she decides to have tea) and, later, with ] in their Unite attacks. Due to its unique nature, the rune compels its owner to fight its other half, which translates to Riou having to fight Jowy on opposing sides during the war. * ArtifactOfDoom: The Bright Shield Rune. He and his best friend Jowy join the youth army of their home nation, Highland, only to realize the depths of the military's depravity, forcing them to switch sides - this leads Riou, Jowy, and Nanami to pick up a destiny that Genkaku left off twenty years prior.
