Richie is a no-nonsense officer of the N.C.C.A. — Nova City's official police — with a reputation criminals actively avoid. Official materials place her inside the Captain's reborn task force, making her the bridge between the city's legal muscle and the A.C.D.'s messier world.
She is regarded as one of the strongest direct combatants of the announced roster: claw gauntlets drive brutal melee combos, while her loadout runs all the way up to a sniper rifle. Hands-on impressions from the TGS 2025 demo singled her out as the pick for players who want raw damage.
Her signature mechanic is unique in the roster: real police powers in open play. Richie can check IDs, search suspects and make arrests — and her profession-based progression feeds on exactly that work, levelling her up through tickets issued and collars made.
In the city's power structure she answers to Lykaia Reign, the Prime Minister who doubles as N.C.C.A. director — a chain of command that took over Chaos response after the A.C.D. was restructured. How Richie balances both employers is one of the story hooks the game keeps teasing.
Richie was one of the four characters playable in the TGS 2025 demo alongside the Captain, Taffy and Seymour (timeline). What's still unshown: her full skill kit, her story arc, and how far the police systems reach — can she arrest story characters, or only street criminals?
