Eddie Rizzo

Edgar Rizzo is a 17 year old high school student living in the rather strange city of Raspberry Hill. One of the strangest things about Raspberry Hill is that the city is unmoored from reality. it tends to manifest in different states. At the start of Eddie's story, Raspberry Hill is located in Missouri, however, legends have it that Raspberry Hill was founded over 187 years ago in California.

Eddie and his best friend/love interest, Chip Larroquette, have been best friends since 7th grade, but have been actually dating only for a few months. Chip is a painter and sketch artist; Eddie is a bassist looking for a band. They are in their final year of high school and trying desperately to survive and graduate amid the general weirdness of teenage life, the specific weirdness indicative of their oddball city, the various high school subcultures, both real and imagined, clashing; overzealous teachers with issues and the quirks of their respective families.

Once that happens, (IF that happens), then, they will find out how weird the larger world truly is!

Eddie is the child of Vince and JoJo Rizzo - a security guard for Xailenrath Omniversal and a bakery owner, respectively, who both carry a dark family secret. Eddie's older siblings, the fraternal twins Leslie and Teresa, are a constant thorn in his side with their constant, merciless teasing. Fortunately for him, they are both away at college, and he only has to put up with them over holidays and semester breaks.
