Riku was Created as an angel in Kingdom Hearts, or Heaven, as it is commonly known. While as an angel-in-training he spent much of his time with fellow trainees Sora and Kairi.
When he passed his training he was officially promoted to Archangel, though still of the more minor variety. His specialty was avenging the Light, by seeking out the Darkness and eradicating it. This included beings whose Hearts had become so contaminated by the Darkness that they were considered a threat to those around them, part of a virus spreading across the worlds.
Full of divine purpose for his task, he hadn't seen Sora or Kairi since he joined the ongoing war. They could still feel each other however, their very beings connected from simply being what they are.
On the way to yet another world to do battle, Riku was somehow caught by the DR. This did not cause him to falter in his task, as it was still another world contaminated by the Darkness.
He eventually left, answering a summons home to Kingdom Hearts. There was a reunion with Sora and Kairi, as well as a very humbling conversation with the Creator. Riku was demoted to the welcome status of Guardian, and after some time requested to return to the DR in an attempt to make amends. He was not a human, but he was not a perfect being either, and he has since devoted his life to watching over innocents.
His room is a very private thing, one not easily stumbled upon. He is cut off from his own world, as well as the connections he had with Sora and Kairi. As such, he is drawn to beings with Hearts full of Light, as well as very young children that have not lost their innocence.
He can hear peoples' prayers, sometimes even answer them if they truly believe. Mostly he stays unseen, gently guiding and watching over young ones to keep them from dangers. While he mostly watches over children, there are some older teenagers he likes to keep an eye on. These are harder to guide, their minds less open to suggestion, but he still knows what you did there with Red, Girlyku. He sometimes visits people while they're asleep, simply to provide a calming presence. This is evidenced by their being less stressed upon waking, as well as to the faint scent of sugar cookies.
