The Riviera Kid is a player-character from the artificial reality game Streets of Laredo. An ace gunslinger, players could select the Kid from a list of 3 characters, which also included Brett Riverboat and "Dangerous" Dan McGrew. When the Armageddon Virus attacked Starbug's Navicomp and Kryten's mind, the rest of the crew were able to project themselves into Kryten's western-style dreamscape. They each took on the skills and costume of a different gaming character. The Cat chose The Riviera Kid.
