Been writing down all my Riz headcanons as I come up with them so I don't forget and absolutely nobody asked for this but I'm slamming that publish button anyway
He is very popular online after livestreaming the Nightmare King fight, but is so terminally Not Online that he has absolutely no idea
The only thing Fabian can do that will actually set Riz off against him is talk about money. All goodwill goes out the window the second Fabian's mouth opens and rich person nonsense comes out
On the flip side Riz is one of those freaks that just always has clear skin and never needed things like braces etc. despite only ever doing the bare minimum of personal maintenance needed to stay alive and hygienic (like using 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner to "save time"). This incenses Fabian in particular because you KNOW that boy has an extensive multi-step skincare routine
I personally believe that goblins are born with all their teeth and Riz was an especially bitey infant
Riz taught himself how to pick locks when he was six
This is also, not coincidentally, when he got his first major Gun Safety Lecture from his mother because she figured it was only a matter of time before he advanced to cracking safes. (This was back when she could predict what he was going to do and get ahead of it before something horrible happened)
He learned how to actually SHOOT a gun when he was nine (9). Sklonda taught him after her anxiety went through the roof when his dad died. Riz has actually never taken an official shooting course; the Bad Kids believe that he has and he just lets them keep believing it
Not a headcanon necessarily but worth mentioning that I'm an AroAce Riz truther
You know how he consumes inhuman amounts of caffeine but basically had to go off it cold turkey for the entirety of spring break? This isn't a headcanon either I just think it's funny
The friendship necklace thing was Penny's idea
Penny also taught him how to throw knives. She's an excellent babysitter
He let Fabian and Gorgug basically shotput him across a field because they wanted to know how far they could actually throw him. This is a Boys Thing that nobody else knows about
Absolutely tasteless when it comes to food. The quality of The Swan's Little Parade and just, like...a can of olives, pits included, are equal in his mind. A can of olives is a meal. The venn diagram of what is a "goblin thing", a "poor person thing," and a "Riz thing" is often just a circle
