Riz is a large brown bear, who is 2 meters tall. He has small dark eyes, a wide mouth, and light gray-brown fur. He is most commonly seen wearing his Cherryton Academy school uniform. In cold seasons, this uniform consists of a white dress shirt, an indigo vest, a dark gray tie, black suspenders, gray pants with dark gray vertical stripes, and brown loafers. During the warmer seasons, the top-wear is replaced by a blue polo shirt. During drama club practice, he wears a white t-shirt and red track pants. When outside of school he can wear a white t-shirt accompanied by a blue jacket, dark blue jeans and light-colored shoes.

Riz appears to be a kindhearted individual, who was very loved and respected by his classmates. However, he's hiding a dark secret. He unintentionally gave into his predator instincts and ate his close friend Tem. Riz was suffering from bad side effects caused by government mandated medication for bears that was limiting his strength. Due to his close bond with the alpaca, he believed that he didn't need them anymore and stopped taking them, which proved a grave mistake. Unable to cope with the guilt of killing his best friend, Riz develops a twisted perception of reality where Tem not only consented to being eaten but was actually happy about it.

He views the act of eating as a "celebration of life" and believes the most honest friendship a carnivore and herbivore can have been one where one devours the other. If/when someone finds what he has done, through clues or snooping where they shouldn't, he can quickly loose that 'big, friendly, honey-loving bear' vibe and is willing to kill and intimidate anyone who discovers the truth about what he did. He cares little for the personal boundaries of others when trying to intimidate people, whether it be using his size to make them feel trapped, using his strength to scratch and tear into the walls/floor/ceiling to scare them, or putting their fingers in his mouth acting like he'll bite them off.

Abilities: Strength: Being a brown bear, he is one of the strongest carnivores. He could create imprints in the concrete floor or sending another carnivore close to his size flying across a room. Cooking: He enjoys cooking as a hobby and is quite skilled at it. He often cooks for his roommates at school.

He may be able to see in the dark. Since Riz is a bear over 2 meters tall, he is legally required to take government-mandated pills that decrease his physical strength. The pills are shown to cause him severe headaches. Riz eats honey to lessen the pain of these headaches, though he likes eating honey anyway. After eating Tem, his sense of taste was badly affected, and this led to Riz being unable to taste regular food.
