Richter Dreamwake





Richter Dreamwake is a character in Season 1 of the ROCK campaign of Eidolon Playtest. He is a member of The Dead Pharaoh, but not The Killers.

Appearance
Richter Dreamwake has no described appearance beyond "a guy".

Personality
Richter Dreamwake is a sadistic and arrogant man. He faces unknowns head on, and the moment he thinks he has an answer he leaps into self-assured action. If he believes he has the upper hand at any point, it is hard for him to realise when he loses it. This ultimately proves his downfall.

He also has a big ego, casually using Stand to force others to pay him compliments. For example, describing him as "much better looking" and his company "delightful". Given it is due to conscious use of his Eidolon power, it is unlikely he believes these compliments genuine. His enjoyment more likely occurs from the forced deference the compliments display.

Before Season 1
At some point in time, Richter joins up with The Dead Pharaoh. It is never stated what his regular job with them is, but during his career he gains an Eidolon to help support them.

ROCK 11
Richter met up with Jenny Calbert at the Pretzel Crate in Colorado Springs, CO to discuss her recent attempt to cause the death of the Alta Drive Jawbreakers. He struggles to understand why Jenny used her Eidolon to frame them for murder when she could have just framed them non-supernaturally. After he backs her into a conversational corner, he starts insulting her and controlling her to demonstrate his superiority. Satisfied with this display, he heads off to the airfield to catch his flight.

ROCK 12
Richter catches up with the Alta Drive Jawbreakers on State Highway 94 heading towards Kansas. He is flying a small airplane, and controls their movements from afar. He causes them to draw police attention and confess their crimes to the police. Virginia Valentine disables the engine on his plane with Only The Good Die Young, and Richter crashes right next to them. He is injured in the crash, keeping the Jawbreakers at bay with Stand until Chili and Harvey D. Godlove convince him the plane is on fire with Little Lies and actually setting corn on fire.

At this point, Richter escapes from the plane, finding himself surrounded by Chili and Harvey. He taunts them via Virginia, who then blinds him and his Eidolon, causing his power to fade momentarily. Chili and Harvey both use this opportunity to attack him, killing him.

Jenny Calbert
Prior to meeting at the Pretzel Crate, it is implied that Jenny Calbert and Richter did not have much in the way of prior interaction. In the conversation, Jenny did not know what Richter's Eidolon power was, and Richter acted as if he had learned of Jenny's power only moments before. At first, the two frustrated each other in conversation. Once Richter heard enough, he dismissed Jenny's competence and used Stand to control her. Despite this, it appeared as if Richter felt at most disdain for Jenny. By the end of the encounter, this feeling was not mutual. Jenny clearly despised Richter for the humiliation and violation he gave her with his power.

Trivia
● Richter's last words were "Ah, jesus!" as Virginia Valentine blinded him with a laser pointer.
