Rivaski
This eccentric engineer is the head of Northeu's fighter space station. After many years off-planet, he returned one day in a kart powered by Lightstone and restored peace to Northeu in its times of need. Though he was once an ally to Earthlings, even carrying an old friend's helmet with him at all times, his attitude lately has turned quite hostile.
Patch note description
Rivaski is a character in KartRider: Drift.
Summary
Doctor Rivaski is a famed engineer from Planet Northeu, and the father of Taki. In CrazyRacing KartRider, when Taki traveled to Earth, Rivaski followed him in order to bring him back home, disguising himself as a human named Doctor R. In this disguise, Rivaski modified dozens of courses into "Reverse" versions, making racers drive the track backwards and adding new paths and obstacles to accommodate this, all in an effort to dissuade Taki from kart-racing.
Character Skill
Rivaski's character skill is Alien Mind Trick. Rivaski is able to passively see the items held by the two opponents one rank above and below Rivaski, depicted as icons over their heads. These icons only appear if those racers are on screen and do not show up in the rear-view mirror. Additionally, every 40/38/36/34/32 seconds, Rivaski is given a Scanner if he has an open item slot.
Emotes
- Victorious: (Standing) Rivaski leans forward, holds his hands out with his fingers pointed directly down and waves them back and forth as lightstones appear around him. He then jumps twice while making finger guns and pointing into the air with them. (Sitting) Rivaski does a chicken dance by flapping his arms, then splays his fingers and holds his arms up in a menacing fashion as hearts appear in his eyes.
- Sad: Rivaski flails his arms and shakes his head exaggeratedly as he cries, then holds his hands forward in disbelief.
- Angry: Rivaski clenches his fists as blue flames form around them, his antennae shake and grow in size, then he yells as a blue flame appears over his head.
- Surprised: Rivaski leans forward and tilts his head as if confused, then suddenly jumps back in shock as he darts his eyes around. If sitting, he doesn't lean forward first.
- Amused: Rivaski dangles his fists in front of himself, then spreads his arms and laughs. If sitting, he immediately spreads his arms.
- Affectionate: With hearts in his eyes, Rivaski mimes reeling in a fishing rod, then produces a smoke ring in the shape of heart from his hand.
- Showboat: Rivaski makes finger guns with both hands and "fires" them wildly into the air, then gives a thumbs up while winking. If sitting, he leans forward similar to his standing surprise emote, then gives the thumbs up.
- Bored: If standing, Rivaski sighs and slouches forward as a pair of miniature planets orbit his head, he looks off to the side for a moment, then tilts his head slightly as his eyes become a pair of ellipses (...). If sitting, Rivaski laughs for a moment before suddenly falling asleep and leaning back in his seat. His eyes become ellipses and he dreams of traveling to Earth.
- Applaud: Rivaski wildly claps in an irregular rhythm while shouting gibberish.
- Dance: Rivaski dances by swinging his arms in front of himself and kicking his feet in an alternating rhythm.
