Mel Rickenbacker is a character role-played by Spaceboy.
General Description[]
Mel Rickenbacker is an old elderly citizen of Los Santos with a flair for chaos.
Mel is noted for being an agent of chaos, doing whatever he wants in the city regardless of the consequences. This may include blowing up cars in the Alta Street Apartments, randomly asking people for $5000 in his underwear, and manipulating rednecks to kidnap cops.
As of now, Mel is a taxi driver despite having no license. His car is identical to Abdul AlRahim's, except it is painted green to match his shirt.
On July 15th, 2021, Mel was sentenced to death with his execution being scheduled for July 20th, 2021 at 6PM EDT. Minutes before Mel was set to be executed, Mayor Denzel Williams granted him clemency. The following day Mel was granted parole, but has to return to Boilingbroke every night for 7 days.
Personality[]
Mel is a wily gentleman who finds himself in peculiar situations. Despite his often kind and innocent demeanor, Mel is deceptively intelligent and highly dangerous. Though he is on the older side, Mel is known to be "ride or die for his homies" and has absolutely no sympathy for a "snitch bitch".
The Fella[]
Mel was once a professional wrestler known as "The Fella". He toured the world with the Worldwide Wrestling Corporation (WWWC). He was the WWWC champion from 1975 to 1989. He tore his ACL and now wears a knee brace.
In 2021 he was selected to be the lead announcer and commentator for the Vultur Lé Culturé Fight Club, and he impressed everyone so much that he was even given special permission while on death row to attend VLC 2. His specialized humor and quick wit keeps every spectator engaged to the max.
Relationships[]
Mel has been married to Trish Baggs since March 2019. They first met on a blind date set up by Eugene. Mel became completely enamored by Trish and, on the very same day, asked her if she will "take his hand and grip it with her 'firm slug' in marriage". Later, they went to the Prune Gang turf, the cemetery, for their wedding ceremony. There, they were pronounced husband and wife to the sounds of explosions.
Nowadays, he is usually seen causing chaos in the city with the likes of Four Tee, Fingle Dan, Abdul AlRahim, and Block Gang. He once fought with Mike Block over their positions on Four Tee's friend list, with Mel being #2 and Block being #1.
