Fan:Riku Arhinmäki

Riku Arhinmäki is a fanfictional character in the Digimon Cinematic Sagas. He is the one of the secondary characters in the Legendary Tamers Saga.

Description
Riku was born in 2004 to unrevealed parents. He has lived in Helsinki, Finland, and is skilled at card games, including the trading card game developed about the Digimon right after the Digitaclysm. Because of becoming the Champion of the game in his home country and participating in international tournaments as well, he is well known, but his parents aren't very happy about this. In 2022, he met the DigiGnomes who gave him a D-Ark and sent Cyberdramon, who is also his favorite card in the game, to become his Partner Digimon. Cyberdramon was a little bit violent and wanted to become part of the battles that were happening on the other parts of the world.

In 2023, when Riku had graduated from upper secondary school, DigiGnomes reappeared and guided Riku to go into the Digital World to find a way to properly tame Cyberdramon and help to defeat a new threat to the two worlds. Therefore, Riku decided to leave into the Digital World without having any courage to tell the truth to his relatives.

Trivia

 * Riku is mostly based on Ryo Akiyama since he has Cyberdramon as his partner and he is a card game champion as well as having been in the Digital World long before other Tamers.
 * Riku's nationality is partly inspired by Miska Saari, a Finnish Pokémon trading card game world champion from year 2006.
