{{nihongo|'''{{PAGENAME}}'''|リデル|, Riddle}} is the soft spoken and elegant daughter of General [[Viper]] in {{CC}}. Riddel resides in [[Viper Manor (Radical Dreamers)|Viper Manor]], in {{RD}}, and is still the daughter of the [[Acacia Dragoons]]' leader.


'''Riddel''' (リデル, ''Riddle'') is the soft spoken and elegant daughter of General [[Viper]] in [[Chrono Cross]].
==Story==
==Story==
===''Chrono Cross''===
Raised by the General since birth and attended by a maid, Riddel grew up to be very meek and reserved; above all else, she valued those friends and family close to her. As a child, she often played with [[Dario]] and the other sons of the four Devas, including [[Glenn (Chrono Cross)|Glenn]] and [[Karsh]]. She was not to be left unattended, though this did not stop her from seeking out [[Bellflowers]] in [[Fossil Valley]] with Dario. As she grew older, her friendship with Dario matured into true affection, and the two entered a romantic relationship. In 1017 A.D., they were slated to marry, despite Karsh's secret admiration of her. To solidify the relationship, Dario gave Riddel his [[Memento Pendant]], an heirloom passed down to him by his mother. These plans were tragically disrupted when Dario was killed at the [[Isle of the Damned]]. The event devastated Riddel, who, after that day, made regular trips to place Bellflowers at his grave. The event also caused much public pity and mourning for the woman by the people of [[Termina]], who gave their condolences in respect of General Viper's magnanimous lordship. She never got over him, thinking of him each day for years after the event. Viper locked up the Memento Pendant in order to not remind Riddel of the tragedy.

In 1020 A.D., while out on a trip to his grave in Termina, Riddel met [[Serge]] for the first time. Later that night, she met him again under worse circumstances; [[Kid]] took her hostage in exchange for the escape of the party. Riddel was soon released, and stayed behind as the [[Acacia Dragoons]] went to [[Fort Dragonia]] to prepare for the defense of [[El Nido]]. After [[Lynx]] switched bodies with Serge, she was seized by the invading Porre force and held prisoner for information concerning the Frozen Flame and the whereabouts of the other Dragoons. She was almost tortured and killed by [[Orcha]] before Serge broke in and saved her; she thereafter returned to the [[S.S. Invincible]] and was reunited with the rest of her family and friends. After Dario was discovered to be alive on [[Forbidden Island]], her presence in front of him and the displaying of the Memento Pendant awoke his memories and also the evil within the [[Masamune]], which claimed that it thirsted for Riddel's blood. Dario soon was defeated; Riddel immediately went to his side, noting that even they were from different dimensions, they were still the same people and loved one another. She eventually suggested to him that the rebuilt Viper Manor should become an orphanage, and that she would watch over it with Dario.

Riddel was soon released, and stayed behind as the [[Acacia Dragoons]] went to [[Fort Dragonia]] to prepare for the defense of [[El Nido]]. After [[Lynx]] switched bodies with Serge, she was seized by the invading Porre force and held prisoner for information concerning the Frozen Flame and the whereabouts of the other Dragoons. She was almost tortured and killed by [[Orcha]] before Serge broke in and saved her; she thereafte returned to the [[S.S. Invincible]] and was reunited with the rest of her family and friends. After Dario wad discovered to be alive on [[Forbidden Island]], her presence in front of him and the displaying of the Memento Pendant awoke his memories and also the evil within the [[Masamune]], which claimed that it thirsted for Riddel's blood. Dario soon was defeated; Riddel immediately went to his side, noting that even they were from different dimensions, they were still the same people and loved one another. She eventaully suggested to him that the rebuilt Viper Manor should become an orphanage, and that she would watch over it with Dario.  
The tender, frail daugther of General Viper inhabits Viper Manor in {{RD|1}}. Usually confined to [[Riddel's Room|her room]], she generally does not receive visitors and stays in the company of her maid, [[Noelle]]. She keeps a [[Music Box]] that plays one of [[Lucca]]'s favorite songs.
 
[[File:Radical Dreamers - Riddel.png|right|thumb|Riddel in ''[[Radical Dreamers: Nusumenai Hōseki]]''.]]When [[Lynx]] usurped her father's estate, she stayed. It is likely she chose to remain because she was unmarried and unemployed. Before her father's death, she planned to marry [[Esmeld]], who at that time, was still human. Lynx transforms him into a [[Goblin (Radical Dreamers)|Goblin]] to spite him for his romantic ties to Viper's beautiful daughter. Often, she visits [[Radius]], a Dragoon imprisoned in the [[Catacombs]] of the Manor, through a secret passageway that links to her bedroom. However, when she learns that he assisted Lynx in murdering her father, she holds a grudge against him and refuses his company, even to the point of explicitly wishing him a speedy death. When [[Kid (Radical Dreamers)|Kid]], [[Serge (Radical Dreamers)|Serge]], and [[Gil]] are searching for the [[Einlanzer]] to destroy the trapped ceiling in the [[Torture Room]], they encounter Riddel, whom Kid threatens. She merely laughs and hints at the location of the mythic sword, hoping they will reap vengeance on the [[Demi-human]] that murdered her father. After which, she bids the party farewell and confesses that she wishes she could be more physically adept, like Kid, so she could assist them in their quest for the [[Frozen Flame]].
 
Oddly enough, the Riddel in ''Radical Dreamers'' has major physical differences from the Riddel in ''Chrono Cross''. Most notably, her hair is blond instead of violet and her dress is pink, with green trim, instead of blue with rainbow trim. Also, she appears more curvaceous than in ''Chrono Cross'' and posses little to no magical ability.
