Rixel

QUOTE-SUCK IT! YOUR LIFE ISN'T WORTH IT! (Rixel in episode 6: Legacies)

Rixel is a main character in the Pixel series, and the older brother of Pixel and Wixel.

APPEARANCE
Rixel is a variant of pixel, whose defining feature is a red hat with a design that loosely resembles a line skateboard.

EPISODES
Rixel plays a vital role in some episodes, but is sometimes purely for comic relief.

In Press Start, in which he unintentionally brought two viruses to 8-BIT. His role in the second half of the episode is cut short when he becomes too calm.

In The Spinning Blade, he plays a somewhat smaller role, as Ninja Pixel and Lego Pixel were given the spotlight. He really didn't do much other than get creamed.

In Pyromania, he is one of two Pixels that stays back to fight the Fire Doom Sparks. Despite this, he still is pretty much comic relief, as his bigger scenes were instructing Ninja Pixel to steal the dog treats, and riding a fairly useless sleigh.

He doesn't speak in Pikes and Spikes.

In Lines in the sand, Rixel has his own battle with Axis, resulting in Axis' death after Rixel learns how to use the spear.

In Legacies, he spots Graviton and convinces the group to follow, thus starting the desert fight.

In Quantum, he stupidly sacrifices himself to save Pixel. However, it is still unknown where he went afterwards.

PERSONALITY
Rixel is a pixel who follows all laws other than destruction of property when in battle, because that explosion looked super cool, and only came at the cost of a sidewalk. He likes graffiti art, but in order to do it, buys the property so he doesn't get arrested. He almost always gets crazy on vehicles, and crashes them one way or another, so his motorcycle is complete with side guards for safety measures, because sidewalks won't occupy him when there aren't any left to blow up.

TRIVIA
-Before his hat was completely designed, a placeholder was Ash Ketchum's hat from Pokemon.

-Along with Wixel, he was part of a huge line of pixels with a different letter starting their name, being branches of the Pixel Species Tree, including characters like Hixel ( a severely angry and otherwise emotionless Pixel ), Yixel ( Redesigned into Graviton ) and Xixel ( a Pixel with X eyes, making him look dead ). eventually, those Pixels were all scrapped and make cameo appearances in the trash file, but due to their originality, Rixel and Wixel were kept in the series, becoming main characters.

-He is technically identical to Pixel as his hat isn't physically part of him
