Name: Bernard Kricko
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Height: 5'8"
Build: Thin
Candy Type: Chocolate covered Cockroach

Personality: 

Kricko is a complicated little bug. It's difficult to peg him as a good or bad person, as while he is abrasive, rude, and can lie for sheer purposes of amusement, he also genuinely cares for people that have worse luck than he does(and he is plenty unlucky). For what little luck he does gain, however, he tries to spin it into somethhing he can incorporate with others, as he finds a lot of the world's good wasted on him otherwise. Of course, he isn't all sunshine and rainbows, he has quite a deal of flaws as well.

He is sassy at a constant, a Kricko is incredibly bitter with the world most of the time because of his past, he is a passionate believer that the world we live in is rigged, and only the lucky or rich can succeed. Whenever anyone argues otherwise, it usually ends up in hurt feelings one way or another. He isn't tactful with his words, he always speaks a passionate truth in arguments, even if it might not put him in a good light, he wants to make a conversation on behalf of the worst parts of life today, no matter how hard it is to look at, or if it makes him look like a "bad guy" in the process.

On a more lighthearted note, however, he cares a whole lot more about people than he lets on. His prickly exterior on behalf of how much he cares, and his emotions usually spark into extremes. This often makes him appear as an angry person--which isn't wrong per se. His behavior towards individuals widely relies upon first impressions. He can either be cruel, or aggressively sweet depending on the person. Of course, if you can't handle a playful bit of sh*ttalking you might not handle his presence all too well regardless. Also, be warned, he has a foul mouth.

Likes:

• Really sh*tty beer, but the fancy stuff is okay too.

• Mr. Cuddles(His teddybear) What? No, that's just his cousins, shut up.

• Working, somehow someway.

• Spicy food, although he has very poor tolerance for it.

• Okay, food in general(he won't turn it down)

• People who actively help people, but not for self-satisfaction or reward.

• Looking his very best.

• A nice, tidy space(He's a low key neat freak)

• Trolling a very specific type of person

Dislikes:

• People finding out, or worse yet calling him by his first name.

• Rain(always makes sure his umbrella is with him, just in case)

• By extension, his wings getting wet.

• Puns _{When he isn't saying them}

• Hypocrites, the kind of people that say they're good people yet ignore people in need.

• When people show disgust/treat him poorly on behalf of him being a bug

• People touching his antennae without permission(which he likely also won't give)

• People that touch him without permission

• Being sober, but he deals with it in his own bitter way.

• People inevitably calling him a felon, or calls attention to it in any way. 

Job: Charity streamer (RadRoach)
History:

Kricko started off as a starry-eyed individual, freshly graduated with a degree in business he managed to land a job in a prestiged corporation. Of course, he only worked in a tiny cubical and while the job itself wasn't all that glamorous, he enjoyed working anyway. 

It would be nice to say that the story ended there, but it hadn't. After nearly a year working there a sudden crisis broke out. A large amount of funds was taken out of the company reserve without clearance. Everyone in the building was interrogated, and no one was allowed to go into the building until they looked at all of the computers, and to his surprise, the blame fell onto him.

 The accusation baffled him. Why would he steal from a place that he loved? It wasn't like he was in any forrm of economical crisis either. However, the police insisted that the $30,000 was taken from his computer. He was swiftly thrown into court. Of course, he pleaded not guilty. He wasn't about to be blamed for someone else's misdeeds. That, and they didn't even have a motive for him, how could they possibly win? It was more important to catch the real perp anyway.

Then, to his surprise. He found that his own co-workers were testifying against him. They were commenting on the fact that he was too happy, too chummy, and he was incredibly suspicious from day one. He couldn't believe his ears. He loved these guys! What the hell made them turn on him so suddenly?!

He was clueless up until one point---when someone incidentally let the word "disgusting bug" slip into their testimony, and it all clicked. They all thought he did it because he was an insect, because he wasn't something sweet or appealing to the tastebuds. When everyone heard that he was accused with this crime, they instantly believed it, just because he was a cockroach.

 And if people that he knew and at least pretended to like him thought that way, then the jury...

He was declared guilty at 7:59 pm. He was given the maximum penalty they could afford. a 25k fine, and 6 years jailtime.

He had no hope to pay off the fine, especially not with something like this on his record. There was no way he was ever going to get a job again. Those years were the worst of his entire life. He would never get that time back. He was fucked.

The first day he got out he sent out as many job applications that he could, only to meet denial after denial. Not even the benefits were enough to keep him stable. Eventually, he found himself on the streets. He was there for two weeks until a friend decided to let him stay in his place until he was economically stable. He owes Quincy the world for that chance.

With time, he was able to get a job again--but it was not at all how he first imagined. During one of the many holiday charities(specifically one that assists the homeless and/or severely impoverished) that he did volunteer work for, he spotted a couple of teenagers that looked familiar. He remembered very clearly them bragging about how easy it was to get a job and/or get rich while they flaunted their overexpensive jewelery around.

Before he knew he it was charging toward the girls and cussing them out for taking advantage of an event that was for people who actually needed help, and not people who just wanted free stuff. He hardly paid it any mind that day but the next thing he knew apparently someone recorded the incident, and the video went viral.

People then found out about his fine, and his situation, and started to collect money around together and actually pay it off. He was touched, but they kept on donating more to him despite the fact that he didn't really need anything more for the fine. So he decided to put a spin on it. He took advantage with his sudden surge of popularity and became a streamer who'd play(and consequently suck at) video games, while also talking about real shit.

All of the donations sent to him were then split into 2/3s, where the majority would go to a charity of the community's choosing. He didn't really believe in happy endings, but this sure as hell was another happy beginning.
