Many were surprised to see Harrison back on the pitch for a second season after a close encounter with [[THE MAW]] in Season 1, which resulted in the loss of his right arm. However, his return saw him on the plate with both arms intact. In addition, reports say that he increased in size dramatically between seasons, adding a full six inches to his height. This trend has continued as of the beginning of season three, seeing Harrison standing a towering 9 feet 3 inches tall. Fans in the stands have reported witnessing him consuming vast amounts of what appear to be salmon pellets and brine shrimp. It is rumored that rather than hair, Harrison is in possession of feathered filaments sprouting from his pale pink skull, a rumor supported by a blurry photograph that appears to show a helmet-less Harrison emerging from the Canadian floodwaters near Gleek Arena.

Initially, Richmond found it difficult to adjust to the high heat and low humidity in Hades. To help with this, the Tigers suggested he spend the time between games in one of the rivers of the underworld. Initially Richmond chose to stay in the River Lethe, but after repeatedly forgetting to show up to games he moved to the River Styx instead. Many spectators fear complete immersion in the Styx may have rendered Richmond completely invulnerable, especially as he has recently been spotted relaxing in the River Phlegethon, which is made of fire.

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

History

Many were surprised to see Harrison back on the pitch for a second season after a close encounter with THE MAW in Season 1, which resulted in the loss of his right arm. However, his return saw him on the plate with both arms intact. In addition, reports say that he increased in size dramatically between seasons, adding a full six inches to his height. This trend has continued as of the beginning of season three, seeing Harrison standing a towering 9 feet 3 inches tall. Fans in the stands have reported witnessing him consuming vast amounts of what appear to be salmon pellets and brine shrimp. It is rumored that rather than hair, Harrison is in possession of feathered filaments sprouting from his pale pink skull, a rumor supported by a blurry photograph that appears to show a helmetless Harrison emerging from the Canadian floodwaters near Gleek Arena.

Feedback Swap

During a game on Season 6, Day 19, Harrison got lost in an intense feedback storm and found himself in the Hades Tigers dugout. As per official ILB regulations, this made him a member of the team.

Initially, Harrison found it difficult to adjust to the high heat and low humidity in Hades. To help with this, the Tigers suggested he spend the time between games in one of the rivers of the underworld. Initially Harrison chose to stay in the River Lethe, but after repeatedly forgetting to show up to games he moved to the River Styx instead. Many spectators fear complete immersion in the Styx may have rendered Harrison completely invulnerable, especially as he has recently been spotted relaxing in the River Phlegethon, which is made of fire.

World Tour

In Season 7 Spears Taylor declared themselves Harrison's mentor, promising to teach him everything they knew. Unfortunately, this proved ineffective as Taylor did not actually know much about Blaseball. Instead, the mentorship turned into a series of expeditions around the world to visit the home cities of other teams and find Blaseball wisdom. It was at their last stop, the infinite Los Angeli, where the pair managed to lose their way in spacetime and encounter their future selves in a paracausal event.

Harrison somehow came away from the encounter with several years of growth. Harrison does not seem to be any more cognizant of the fact he is playing Blaseball, but he is a good deal larger at an even 12 feet tall, which has greatly improved his slugging ability. Hades took it upon himself to "make up for missed birthday presents" that Harrison would theoretically be due as a result of these years of growth, and had a 70'-diameter gong installed in the stands beyond center field. Well-struck Richmond Harrison home runs sound the gong loudly enough that the reverberations can be felt for almost exactly the duration of his famed home run trot.

This strategy, along with Harrison's growth, have proven very fruitful, and with his improvement, Harrison was voted the Tigers' MVP for Season 8 in a fan poll.

Trivia

No recordings of his vocalizations have been yet attained, as he is known to attack audio/video equipment, particularly if he can see his reflection in the lens (as such, mirrors were forbidden in Gleek Arena, and bringing one into the stadium was considered an act of sabotage).
