Description
Born an Evil Chojin, Ricardo was raised in Brazil as a Justice Chojin by his mentor and adoptive father, Pashango. During training, Ricardo accidentally killed Pashango with his Torture Slash technique after Pashango uncovered Ricardo's past ties to the d.M.p. Ricardo concealed the incident as an accident and adopted a disguised identity: the "Submission Artist," wearing a helmet with a tinted visor, armor, and tights. Unbeknownst to him, fellow student Silva witnessed Ricardo stomping Pashango's corpse to ensure death, a secret temporarily kept.
Gaining popularity in Brazil through his brutal fighting style, Ricardo entered a preliminary tournament to represent Brazil in the Chojin Olympics. His vicious methods drew criticism, exposing moral ambiguity among heroic Chojin. He defeated opponents like The Skyscraper and O Drag Slave using submission holds such as the Iguaçu Lock. His disguise failed when his outer shell cracked mid-match, revealing his true heritage and d.M.p. connection. This triggered his transformation into his innate Evil Chojin form, "Lord of Darkness," marked by a jaguar-piranha hybrid appearance and a complete abandonment of rules or mercy.
As Lord of Darkness, aided by Gazeman and Pelé in the Chojin Olympics, Ricardo advanced to the quarter-finals. He defeated Jade with the Torture Slash; the match ended after a towel throw, highlighting his preference for deathmatches. His sole policy was winning, aligning with neither Justice nor Evil factions, openly reveling in lethal combat—a philosophy blending traits from multiple Evil Chojin groups.
In the semi-finals, Ricardo faced Mantaro Kinniku within a dangerous structure: the razor-blade-covered "Punishment X" (manga) or the electric-shock "Electrolix" (anime). Mantaro defeated him using the Muscle Millennium technique. This loss confirmed Ricardo's inability to escape his inherent evil nature. He vanished after this event, concluding his narrative.
Ricardo employed numerous techniques. Key submissions included the Torture Slash (splitting opponents groin to abdomen), Zuffàra (stressing multiple body parts via leg/back manipulation), Araña Clutch (pressure on arms, back, neck), and the lethal Iguaçu Lock (breaking legs or bisecting opponents). As Lord of Darkness, he used weapons like the Piranha Bracelet (launched from his spiked bracelet, retracted via a chain linked to his horn), alongside techniques such as Piranha Jaw, Tempest Coil, Punishment Stinger, Punishment Flip, Figure Tempest Coil, Boiling Lariat, Double Deadly Blade Burial, and Corcovado Hill.
His singles career record shows victories over O Drag Slave, The Skyscraper, and Jade, with a sole loss to Mantaro Kinniku. His nicknames—"Submission Artist," "Lord of Darkness," and "Multiple Personality Chojin"—reflect his dual identities and internal conflict. His story ends without reappearance after the Chojin Resurrection Arc, emphasizing his unresolved struggle between raised principles and inborn evil.
