Biography: Born in New Taxco, Mars, to a poor immigrant family. Being a mining town, New Taxco forced children as young as 14 years old to work in the quarry for several hours a day. Rico Rivera was in the mining business from a very young age because of this, and is proficient in mining. His fairly large family comprised of chefs and musicians before they immigrated from the polluted, industrialized Earth, so Rico, of course, inherited decent cooking skills (although, most of the recipes he knows are of the Latino persuasion.), as well as proficient music skills (most prominent in guitar.) His family, by the time of their moving to Mars, were mostly miners from then on. At the age of 18, he had already been working the quarry for four years. On June 18, 2947, a Nanotrasen recruitment shuttle landed near New Taxco, looking for new miners. This is when Rico's life turned around. He had been making the lowest wage possible working the quarry, making enough credits for him and his family to afford proper shelter and taco ingredients. The NT shuttle that landed not far from his tenement housing was an opportunity to get out of poverty, and off that desolate planet. Rico traveled to the shuttle landing site with his family, miners were flooding in by the dozens. His whole town was there. NT was not refusing anyone, so Rico said goodbye to his family (which consisted of two young brothers, 5 baby sisters, his mother, father, and grandmother) and boarded the shuttle. His next stop was the station of random selection, which ultimately ended up being the NSS Cyberiad, where he has been working for 12 years, cycling through different jobs each shift. He has leaned towards more artistic jobs like chef and bard, other than mining, since his memories of mining were far from pleasant. He wires credits back to his family back in New Taxco, who are beginning to make plans to migrate from the cold, desert planet of Mars, to the safe, clean, and pleasant dormitories of the NSS Cyberiad.
