Ricky Dene Gervais

Ricky Dene Gervais, also known as Rickeh, is a pivotal figure in the world of Cuando El. It is from his actions that the infection initially spreads.

Personality
Ricky Dene Gervais would be seen as a particularly rude, offensive man. The truth is, he is a very kind man.. well, not always. Gervais formerly abused his boyfriend, Jonathan Howsmon Davis, and left him to die in the library of West Surrey Musical College. Fortunately, Gervais was saved by Elliot Rodger and he quickly changed his ways. Gervais is now a comedian, telling his experiences with Cuando El in the form of comedy. He is now married to both Jonathan and Alexander Rybak.

Childhood
Ricky Gervais reportedly said about his childhood: "It was normal. I was funny. Bla bla bla. I farted once or twice. Killed a man. Ha ha ha ha. Watch the Office." Whether this is true or not cannot be known, due to the instant death of many people, including all of Gervais' family, when Cuando El came to Ricky's world.

Meeting Jonneh
Jonathan Davis and Ricky Gervais initially met in the West Surrey Musical College. The two bonded over their shared love of music and cynicism of authority. Both men had a problem with discrimination amongst the West Surrey Musical College administration, which had decided that both Davis and another student, Kakish, were not fit for graduation due to the lyrical themes of their music, as well as due to an ethnic and racial bias. The two fought the administration together, ensuring that both Davis and Kakish were capable of graduating, in the proccess making a new genre of music named rebel music with their band Korn Dancing. Kakish remained a great friend of Gervais before his job at Facebook Corp took up too much of his time.

The Marriage That Went Wrong
Eventually their friendship, toughened by their collective hardship, blossomed into love. The marriage occured perhaps two months after their graduation. At first, it was an ideal relationship, filled with what seemed to be an eternal honeymoon. But soon, doubt began to strike Gervais' heart. He began to have these obsessive thoughts about Davis leaving him that became too much to bear. Terrified that his thoughts would become reality, and warped by his need to be loved by Davis, Gervais began to abuse Davis. His twisted logic was as so: "If he is too scared to run, he will never run. I must strike that fear into him." For a while, it worked. But Gervais' heart became tarred with a much darker streak, for what had initially presented as obsessive and anxious love had morphed into a murderous rage. It became too much to bear.

The Shooting of West Surrey
On the 17th of January 2001, Gervais, in a fit of rage, shot up a school in West Surrey. He wanted to teach Davis a lesson. And it did work. There were many deaths, and Gervais, caught up in the mania of the moment, could hardly be called Ricky Gervais anymore. No, he had become Evil Gervais, addicted to death and killing. There was no more Korn Dancing. Now, there was only Death Dancing, both in his mind and above the corpses of those he had killed. And then he snapped out of it. He was surrounded by corpses. He could hear police sirens. He felt so cold despite being splattered with blood.

It seemed it was truly over for Gervais. In his mind, he had become alone and evil. He had killed too many in his animalistic rage, including his husband (in fact, whilst he had been shot, Davis had managed to be saved by Alexander Rybak during the shooting) and no longer found any reason to live as he was. He chose to dedicate his life to becoming a comedian, having been sentenced to prison. But there was always the thought that nobody in the whole world would want to listen to the comedic ramblings of a mass shooter. And so the resentment grew. Gervais was let out of prison, and became a successful comedian. But the hatred still grew as he observed that, despite his success, there were so many critics, so many hate letters sent to his house scribbled with expletives, eggs smeared up and down the windows of his house whilst he slept. And no matter what, he was still alone.

During the Cuando El Event
No wonder he fell for it. When Dennis Nilsen asked Ricky Gervais what he wanted most, and Ricky Gervais answered, 'I want to try again', Nilsen already knew that he would be easy to manipulate. Promising the world to Ricky, and spinning tales of a mystical phenomenon called Cuando El that could reset the world, reset everything bad Ricky Gervais had done, reset everything that had happened so that Jonathan Davis would still be at his side, Nilsen had found an easy recruit. Gervais aided Nilsen in creating Cuando El. ...

After the Cuando El Event
They are all in love again.

Jonathan Davis
They used to be married, but Gervais abused Davis and attempted to kill him. Gervais still loves Davis despite his actions.

Alexander Rybak
Rybak despises Gervais for how he treated Davis, and Gervais despises Rybak for being with Davis. After Cuando El, the two fall in a tentative love, realising that the Gervais that used to be is now functionally dead.

Richard Millar
Gervais thinks Millar is a truly pathetic person due to his lack of humanity and depraved obsessions. He helps Nilsen to manipulate Millar into setting into motion the events that will lead to Cuando El, whilst hating Millar the whole time. During Cuando El, the only positive point he can find about Millar is that he abused Rybak.

Dennis Nilsen
Dennis Nilsen acts somewhat as Ricky Gervais' superior, telling him what to do. The two get along before Gervais sees that Davis is working to fight against Nilsen; after that, the illusion of Cuando El shatters in Gervais' eyes, leaving only hatred between Nilsen and Gervais.

Jeff the Killer
The two do not get along despite working together.

Kakish
The two were good friends before circumstances tore them away from each other.
