When he missed and vaporized an asteroid, Norm ordered him to stay in formation. Angered at the loss of his comrade, Riddhe impulsively tried shooting down the red MS. No sooner had he launched, was Homare shot down by a single red mobile suit. Once Riddhe got in his ReZEL, he was teased over the comm by Lieutenant Homare, asking "Is the rich kid getting cold feet?" Riddhe smoothly denies it, before launching. As he moved away from Banagher, Riddhe could only think to himself that the young boy could pilot a Gundam. He thanked the young lad and reassured him that he and the MS corp can protect the ship. Riddhe lost his good luck charm, which Banagher caught while it was floating about and called Riddhe.
As Riddhe moved to the hanger, he passed by the infirmary where Banagher was recovering. While trapped within space debris, Neo Zeon forces found the Nahel Argama's position after Captain Otto Midas brashly fired at the derelict ship, exposing their location. Takuya then drew Riddhe's attention, as the Nahel Argama technicians finally opened the hatch, revealing his friend, Banagher Links, inside. He noted that she looked like Natsume Swanson, a famous actress, to which Audrey stated that she doesn't know much about the entertainment industry. While observing the Unicorn Gundam, Riddhe recognized something familiar about Audrey, which made her apprehensive. Mihiro offered to come along too, stating that if that Gundam didn't show up when it did, she and Riddhe would not be having this discussion she in particular, wanted to meet the pilot who saved their lives. Just then, another civilian Takuya Irei popped up, exclaiming his knowledge of how the Nahel Argama was the mothership of the Gundam team during the First Neo Zeon War and was now carrying the new one. Though Mihiro tried dissuading Riddhe, he assured her that it would be fine. Riddhe offered to show her a good spot to observe the Gundam. He then spotted one of the civilians he rescued, Audrey Burne, who was asking Ensign Mihiro Oiwakken about who was piloting the Gundam. Romeo Squadron was recalled to the Nahel Argama, upon which Riddhe disembarked. At first, they believed it to be an enemy, only to discover that it was a derelict ship, Salamis-class, moving on its own backup power system. Romeo Squadron then spotted an incoming vessel. His squadron leader, Commander Norm Basilicock, reminded him that it is not luck that keeps him alive. Once the Nahel Argama was far away from Industrial 7, Riddhe was among the ReZEL on patrol. Later, he picked up a mysterious single horn unit after it transformed into a Gundam and engaged "The Sleeves'" large mobile suit. Eventually, Riddhe launched from the Nahel Argama in his RGZ-95 ReZEL and found a trio of teenage civilians (including an incognito Mineva Lao Zabi) and rescued them, escorting them to the Nahel Argama aboard a shuttle. For that reason, whenever he goes into combat, he wears a bracelet with a miniature biplane attached, which he calls his good luck charm.ĭuring a battle at Anaheim Electronics' Industrial 7 space colony, the colony was attacked by both Londo Bell and the Neo Zeon remnants known as "The Sleeves" with both parties aiming to claim a mysterious item known as "Laplace's Box", more specifically the key to the box which resides in a mobile suit. After being told the truth about Laplace's Box and his own family, Riddhe became determined to protect the current world order and the billions of lives that reside within it, even though it's flawed.
However, his views eventually change and he is willing to disobey the rules in favor of doing what is right. He believes that the Earth Federation, even when there was corruption, would eventually do the right thing. Though he is the heir to the influential Marcenas family, he enlisted in Londo Bell to escape his family that he is uncomfortable talking about. Despite this, his lavish and isolated upbringings have sheltered Riddhe's views on the world. Overall, Riddhe is a loyal, well-spoken, and fearless soldier.
