Richard Meyer/Story

=Fatal Fury series=

Past
Originally from Brazil, Richard is a Capoeira master who used his skills to entertain the nightclub crowds. While he had fun entertaining the masses and loved the recognition for it, he felt he had to move on. Moving to the United States, Richard made his home in South Town. It was here that he opened the Pao Pao Café, a nightclub reminiscent of those of his native Brazil. Unlike the bars in South Town, Richard would not tolerate any discord caused by criminals and thugs in his club, literally kicking them out if they do.

Fatal Fury: King of Fighters
When Geese Howard held the first King of Fighters tournament, Richard entered to promote the Pao Pao Café. While he accomplished this goal and beat several fighters in the process, he was beaten by the Lonely Wolves (Terry Bogard and Andy Bogard, and Joe Higashi). Richard was a good sport about losing and the Pao Pao Café became South Town's ideal nightclub spot.

Fatal Fury 2
The Pao Pao Café slowly became a hot spot among fighters where they can spar against one another or just hang out. This was evident when another King of Fighters tournament was held by Wolfgang Krauser and all the fights were shown live in the café. The profits from that venture were so high that, combined with the club's ongoing popularity, Richard had enough money to build a second Pao Pao Café in South Town, which he names "Pao Pao Café 2". He also got a Capoeira student named Bob Wilson.

Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory
During the grand opening of Pao Pao Café 2, Bob, acting as the manager, the place was wrecked by the Jin twins, Chonshu and Chonrei. As Bob went after the Jin twins for what they had done, Richard stayed to rebuild the second Pao Pao. After he rebuilds the club, he gives it to Bob, who Richard felt was worthy of full ownership because of his impressive skills. Richard now has devoted his time to entertain the masses and garner attention for both Pao Pao Cafés. He has made many friends in the fighting community ever since. While Bob usually does the fighting, Richard will throw down once more if challenged.

=The King of Fighters series= Richard's life in this timeline is the same as her Fatal Fury counterpart up to the events of Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory.

The King of Fighters XIII


Although Richard does not participate in the thirteenth tournament, he does appear during in the Women Fighters Team ending, where he, Hotaru Futaba, and Hinako Shijou watch King, Mai Shiranui, Yuri Sakazaki, Vanessa, Malin, B. Jenet, Li Xiangfei and Kasumi Todoh fight in the Pao Pao Cafe over an argument over who is the strongest women fighter (much to his dismay).

The King of Fighters XIV
Bob eventually got involved with Richard on unable to control most KOF veteran heroines into out of control drunken party girls who end up causing bar fights. Despite Bob's attempt to call Terry, Andy and Ryo Sakazaki to calm most heroines down, the bar fights end up getting worst.
