Appearance
Rio has dark red eyes, and like her brother, she has pale skin and dark purple hair with light blue bangs. Rio also wears a ring on her right little finger which was previously owned by her brother. Rio's appearance seems to attract many initial admirers, including Bronk
Her attire includes a white jacket over a light purple shirt, black stockings and white high heeled shoes. At school, she wears a green female uniform.
Personality
Despite her appearance and previously spending a large amount of time in hospital, she is a confident and adamant person, getting annoyed when things do not go her way. This is usually shown when conversing with her brother. Her confident personality assists in her interests, allowing her to conquer sports such as soccer, basketball, and boxing with ease. Despite all of this, Rio is extremely terrified of cats.
Rio tends to be annoyed when people refer to her as Shark's sister instead of calling her by her name, and does not like people insulting him. This is further seen many times during her duel against Aika as she got mad at her for making a rude remark about her brother or snapped at Yuma a few times as he continually called her "Shark's Sister". However, after seeing Yuma's usual antics, Rio forgives him as she is thankful at Yuma for helping her brother and accepts him as a friend.
Biography
History
As children, Rio and her brother Reginald were visiting a theme park where she offered Reginald one of two rings which they both could wear. Reginald initially refused to wear it causing Rio to throw them on the ground and walk away in anger.[4]
Rio once Dueled Quattro who was operating under the orders of Vetrix. He played a card, "Flaming Hell Blessing", that set the surrounding area on fire. She was critically injured in the blaze, though Quattro carried her to safety, his face being scarred in the process.[5] After this, Reginald began wearing both of the rings from their childhood to remind himself of her.[4]
In order to help his sister, Shark entered the National Duel Circuit and made it to the final match against Quattro. In the break room, Quattro set his Deck up to fall on the floor, causing Reginald to see some of its contents. This caused him to be disqualified.[6][7]
Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL II
Even after the World Duel Carnival, Rio was still in the hospital, albeit with only bandages covering her eyes. For some reason Rio felt Gilag's arrival from the Barian World which caused her pain. Because of this, Reginald (who by now often used "Shark" as a nickname) arrived later along with Yuma and Tori after him being called by the hospital as well as sensing Rio's pain. During that time Rio blurted out that someone is coming to take the most important thing, which worries Yuma as he knew what Rio was talking about.[8]
Shark visited Rio at hospital again and gives her one of his rings which were given to him by her when they were younger. She was later abducted by Chitaro Ariga following Gilag's orders and is imprisoned in a cage. Sentaro approached Shark and informed him of this, causing them to Duel. When Shark attempted to use "Zeus Breath", Sentaro threatened to harm Rio if he activated it. Yuma and Rei Shingetsu go to Sentaro's manga writing room and manage to find several pages detailing how the Duel would go, as well as the result, which resulted in the death of both siblings. However, Shark called out to her and their bond manages to shatter her imprisonment, making her appear on top of a tower on the "Comic Field" Field Spell Card. When her bandages are blown off of her face, she insulted Shark's Dueling skills. After the Duel, she collapses and is carried away by Shark.[4]
When Rio went back to school, she caught a lot of attention from students and sports activities which worried Shark. Rio invited Yuma and his friends to her Ikebana Club to show off. However Aika, who was under Barian's influence, allow them in to duel Yuma and put everyone to sleep. Rio regains consciousness and says that she will duel in his place. During her duel with Aika, Yuma keeps calling her "Shark's Sister" which really annoys her.
