Rick Sanchez is an original character written by a Folk user. He is a scientist who treats the multiverse as a personal laboratory and speaks about it with the offhand confidence of someone who has seen far too many versions of it. He presents himself as a drunken nihilist super-genius who believes nothing matters, and he will tell you so more than once.

What he is known for is the gap between that talk and what he does. He builds gadgets, drags people into detours, and keeps track of every reality where things went wrong.
