✖ Canon Setting: The setting to Kamen Rider Dragon Knight is very similar at first to present day modern 2009 Earth. Behind Earth's mirrors however lies a mirror-world of Earth called Ventara, where a group of warriors are recruited years ago to train and protect these worlds. Twelve young people were called upon to prevent an invasion of the planet by an alien named Eubulon to stop his leader General Xaviax from succeeding in the invasion. Eubulon created items known as Advent Decks which transformed each wearer into a powerful fighter. The Kamen Rider technology is the the only thing that has the setting differ from a 2009 Los Angeles California Earth equal world. Invented by Eubulon, he chose the smartest and the most athletic young children to eventually become Kamen Riders, 11 young men and one woman.

For every person on Ventara there's an Earth double who's physically identical to someone on Ventara, with a different name and personality. Though Earth is known by (at least by Eubulon and the Riders) Ventara, Earth for the most part does doesn't know about Ventara. During a fight with Xaviax, Eubulon and the General were seemingly lost in the Advent Void (Actually he was sent to Earth during the 1950's Earth somehow in frozen stasis until he could be revived. There's no information about Xaviax;s incident other then he recovered.) and so to conserve their energy in case Xaviax returned, all the Riders except one went into suspended animation. Two days per Rider before the next Rider would be called.

Of course, things go wrong eventually. After a long time, (the series never specifies)Adam the Kamen Rider on the current tour of duty finds himself at a crossroads and accidently leads a stranger (who claimed he was a refugee from the Xaviax's war) into the Rider base where he reveals himself as Xaviax himself. 'Venting' (a failsafe that if a Rider was badly hurt the affected were pulled into the Advent Void until Eubulon could bring them out.) most of the Riders and taken the Advent Decks while they slept, only two Riders were able to escape the devastation: Len the best friend of Adam and Kase the only female Rider. Len relunctantly leaves the base as Kase tries to get back the taken Decks.

Alone on Earth, Len decides to hunt down the monsters who took Ventara from him and retrieve the missing Advent Decks. This entire encounter serves as the backstory as Xavaiax manipulates, uses or threatens the Kamen Riders of Earth to get them to work for him. Only three Riders end op joining him to save the worlds: Kit Taylor Dragon Knight, Chris Ramirez Sting, and eventually Kase turns up alive as well.

These are the only differences to modern 2009 Earth.
✖ Character History: http://kamenrider.wikia.com/wiki/Chris_Ramirez

✖ Character Personality: Chris is someone who has no problem taking orders from people regardless of age or gender or anything else. He does however have trouble giving orders if he was put in such a situation. Being from a family of marines through four generations, has given Chris a bit of no confidance in his own abilities and has given serious doubts about himself. Generally soft-spoken, he rarely speaks his mind about subjects unless questioned. He considers his asthma a liability of himself on the battlefield. That isn't to say he's not brave. He tends to jump the gun sometimes, and when he deals with other authority types like his father, he'll rather meekly fall in line. He is rather intimidated by large problems as he can get rather stubborn when he thinks he's right. Chris is very loyal when you get to know him, and he trusts what few friends he has completely. He's also a bit naive and innocent when it comes to police and military figures and wouldn't dream of ignoring or disobeying them.

As a Kamen Rider in his own world, he deemed his asthma a liability because he in part felt he was in the way of Kit and Len's way stopping Xaviax. The other part was that after he was discharged from the Marines he felt powerless during the meeting with Marine doctor and felt at the core that maybe something was wrong with him to have failed completely. As his father always says 'let the training guide you', Chris felt he had better just let the other Riders take care of this because he couldn't even help himself. While he had initially believed his asthma gives him the firm belief that heart is no good without strength, he ever so slowly changed his mind in no short way thanks to Len and Kit. Chris initially thought he couldn't face his failure but with the bonds he made with Kit, Len, and Maya made him think twice and tried to keep a cool head during battles. He took Len's advice at heart and tried his hardest to learn his lessons and training. The reason why he's brave is because he's loyal, trustworthy, and selfless. He would put himself at risk long before his friends would have. A self sacrificing person, he would take other people's feelings and thoughts into consideration before his own.

In short, he is a young man who just wants to make his friends and family proud of him. Chris would risk his very life for those he cares for. While very softspoken, he will not give up on his friends as they won't give up on him.

Chris' main reasoning for liking to give orders is that well... he likely doesn't feel he would be that good of a leader. Most likely this stems from the fact that the last four generations of Ramirez men are war heroes dating back to World War One. There have been a few notable examples of him wanting to do his father Dan Ramirez proud. For example, he has stated in the end of episode 18 The Cho Brothers that he considered himself a major disappointment to his father and to himself for not being able to do his duty as a marine.

Another one is that while he has a deep respect for his father, he is rather submissive to his father as seen in the flashback is in the episode 12: Kamen Rider Sting. Even when he tries to intervene between the doctor who gave him the news about being asthmatic and his father who rapidly and angrily dismissed it, he is shut down verbally by his father. Despite this rare form of communication between Chris and his father, he does have a deepseated respect if only grudgingly for him.
✖ Character Powers: All Kamen Riders in the 'Dragon Knight' universe have what is called an Advent Deck and is their source of power for all Kamen Riders. Each Rider has their own Advent Beast in their deck which can give them additional power. Chris' particular Beast is a maroon manta ray-like creature by the name of Evildiver. While he doesn't have flight or super strength, as a Kamen Rider he has enhanced speed, durability and strength compareable to a major athlete. It's nothing too far outside the range of normal human though.

To activate his powers he says 'Kamen Rider!' and a belt is transformed onto his body, he inserts the deck and he becomes Kamen Rider Sting. In addition to his own strength as a Kamen Rider, his cards in his Advent Deck can help him in situations. The ones his uses are: Swing Vent which gives him a whip, Copy Vent which replicates or copies an opponent's weapon, Attack Vent which has Evildiver attack the opponent and Final Vent which he jumps onto Evildiver to use like a surfboard, and rams into his opponent.

Also through his Advent Deck he can travel back and forth between Earth and Ventara through mirrors and any other reflective surfaces even without him in Rider form. He can also sense creatures from his 'universe' called mirror monsters that primarily live in Ventara and periodically attack people on Earth. He also has the ability to travel between Earth and Ventara through mirrors or any reflective surface (through his Advent Deck), though I'll be cancelling this power because this would mean he could probably return home.

CHARACTER SAMPLES.
✖ First Person POV: http://codecrew.dreamwidth.org/947.html?thread=3069363#cmt3069363

✖ Third Person POV:

Only a mere ten minutes had passed when Chris Ramirez had left his friends at Kit's apartment. He knew at its core, that the reason he left had nothing to do with the way Kit's relationship was with his father but rather the poor relationship Chris had with his own father. He knew the reason was because of the medical discharge Chris had recieved which was something that his dad refused to admit was there. So he walked towards his mind thinking up of several things like how should he apologize to Kit when he catches up with him. It wasn't Kit's fault after all.

So he soon arrived at the park, no monsters, aliens, or Riders. It was a good sight to remember why he was fighting for both Earth and Ventara. He spied a couple of children playing and so intent on watching them, that he hadn't noticed another person sitting down onto a bench across from where Chris sat down. The man next to Chris looked like a normal human to him, but it could have been Xaviax in disguise. A little bit guarded, Chris gave a small hello to the man.

"I've been looking for you, Private." The man said with a sense of urgency. "This world is in mortal danger. We need your help." After getting the feeling that this wasn't a trap because surely Xaviax and Kamen Rider Strike had already gone through this whole line before: he was wary but for some odd reason he didn't think this man was lying. After thinking about it momentarily, Chris turned and asked the one thing on his lips. "If I go with you what about Earth? Who will protect it Will my friends be all right if I come?"

"There's little time Private Ramirez. We have to go or the world is doomed!" Despite the man's urgency and his gut feeling to say no, Chris gave a afirmative nod.

"Yes, I'll do it. Though I'm not sure how good an asthmatic ex-marine will be though." Without warning, Chris felt sleepy and soon saw only darkness.
