The Rich Kid, occasionally called The Rich Guy, and before that by his nickname Neo, is an enemy of Xaq and Zoovac. He’s a kid of about the same age as Xaq, and he uses his incredible wealth to do evil things. For this reason, he often ends up fighting Xaq, who has become his frequent enemy. He also works with the Company.
It has been years since Xaq’s last tussle with the Rich Kid, and his current activities are unknown. He’s a known terrorist as of 2004, and was suspected for attacks performed by alien invaders.
History[]
Childhood[]
He started life as a nameless orphan who had nothing to his name, but was extremely principled. He wouldn't do anything unethical even if it would mean food and shelter for him. One day he was contacted by Zoovac, working for The Company, who nicknamed him Neo and promised him a comfortable life in exchange for help accomplishing his ends.
He was happy to help until he was asked to steal; he hesitated and required a lot of convincing, but Zoovac tempted him with a comfortable life and told him he was deserving of it, as he was an heir to the owners of a nearby castle (a lie). Neo gave in and decided to take what he wants from now on, and Zoovac rebranded him "The Rich Kid". ("Zoovac: The Life and Times of a Clown on a Stick")
In Xaq's first encounter with the Rich Kid, they quickly came to conflict and Xaq had to stop him. (Series 1: "Rich Kid Game")
The Rich Guy[]
The Rich Guy.
Upon reaching adulthood, he abandoned the moniker of "The Rich Kid", now going by the more mature "The Rich Guy". He now wears a tuxedo and has a glass which he keeps over his eye. He’s very upper-class nowadays. ("Resident Evil Game")
- This seems to contradict his depiction in PCG Anniversary Special. It's not known what the explanation is.
He's also a known terrorist in the United States in adulthood, such that, when the Alien Advance Scout hijacked a plane and bombed a number of cities, the Rich Guy was suspected for it. (Alien Invasion Series: "Evil Plans")
Facing Xaq again[]
Xaq faces off against the Rich Kid above his castle.
The Rich Kid began running some experiments in his castle at some point, and it's not entirely clear what they did. During that time he came into conflict with Xaq again when Xaq burst into his castle and defeated all his ninjas.
He blamed Xaq for that - even though Xaq claimed it was self-defense - and furthermore, he blamed Xaq for all the strange disturbances to the world. He attacked Xaq while wearing jet boots, but was defeated and was flung off into the mountains, out of control. (Xaq Series - "PCG Anniversary Special Part II")
Later, he was empowered by sentient nanites, gaining incredible power. He got Pollencio to work for him, and the two of them confronted Xaq and Poochie; Xaq was unable to defeat him, but instead shrunk himself down and went inside the Rich Kid.
Inside the Rich Kid's body, Xaq fought the nanites before gaining partial control over the Rich Kid's brain. The Rich Kid attended a party for some of the richest and most powerful people throughout the galaxy. He hobnobbed with the likes of Glaxarn the Singular, Cypress Parker, and many others. He'd also hatched a plot to catch Xaq and was forcing Tutorial Bot to lure Xaq into a trap; however this failed, as Xaq was inside the Rich Kid. Finally, Xaq was removed from the Rich Kid, but not before the last of the nanites were ejected. (Xaq Series - "PCG Anniversary Special Part II")
