Character Bio: Richard Rahl was raised believing his name to be Richard Cypher. Raised by George Cypher, he also thought that Cypher's son, Michael, was his brother. Richard's mother married George Cypher after Richard was born and so Richard was raised as George's son. Sadly, when Richard was young, his mother died in a fire. After she had ensured Richard's and Michael's safety, she rushed into their burning house to save an unknown item.
Richard grew up in Westland, a land to the west of the boundaries. With the teachings of his adopted father and the man he knew as his best friend, Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander, Richard eventually became a woods guide while Michael became an important political figure in Westland.
As Richard grew up, his father had him memorize the words of a book, the Book of Counted Shadows. Richard had to read and reread the book to memorize its words, but he didn't mind this, feeling honored that his father had chosen him for the task. Eventually, after many years of studying the book, George asked Richard to recite the entire book one last time. When he succeeded without a single error, knowing that the secret knowledge of the book was safe, they burned the book.
As time went on, Richard helped Zedd whenever he could and became friends with the likes of the boundary warden Dell Brandstone, who he would come to call Chase. He honed his skills as a woods guide, and became at home in the forest.
Richard took Kahlan into Westland to meet his friend, Zedd, as he was falling ill from the poisonous sting he had recieved from the strange vine, which he later learns is called a snake vine. En route, Kahlan revealed that she was an inhabitant of the Midlands, who had crossed the boundary in search of the First Wizard whose help she hoped to recieve in defeating the wicked Darken Rahl. Zedd healed Richard from the sickness, who he soon deduced to be the very wizard Kahlan hoped to find. Kahlan beseeched Zedd to, in his capacity as the First Wizard, name a new Seeker. Reluctantly, Zedd complied to Kahlan's horror by naming Richard as the true Seeker of Truth
