He personally led many of the orders early missions, and was personally responsible for the murder of Queen Mishann of Cyre in 908 YK, and the death of her son King Brusst only five years later.
Richtus was the leader of the Emerald Claw when it was disbanded in 991 YK. He refused the order to disband, and attempted to assassinate King Kaius ir'Wynarn III.
