Character Backstory: Rickets was born in South Africa to a father who worked as a mechanic for a retail farm equipment company and a stay at home mom. All his life he had been tinkering with machines along with his father. He lived in the town of Kompaka, a small area with a reputation as a large lemon agriculture background. Rickets parents did decently, but they never had the money to travel, eat fancy foods, or buy more then one or two gifts for his birthday. As time passed Rickets eventually went to school to learn about engineering. But, during his time there, he had heard about the difficulties that occurred in Japan after the rift and went with a small group from his college to offer support in rebuilding infrastructure and fixing broken electronics in parts of the city that were still under construction. He found joy amidst the travesty and after having graduated returned to the very city he had once helped. Now he lives a casual life as an employee of the Solar Ace company, a manufacturer of home appliances, personal products, and instant meals, to further his education and live in a city he had learned to love.
