Ricky Torino (his full first name is Richelieu), made his name behind Simeone Di Bradini in Starblaydia's Under-21 side for the 3rd Under-21 World Cup. Torino, who scored two goals in his four matches - against Europa Britannia and Kaze Progressa - went on to play for Starblaydia in two World Cup Qualifying Campaigns, including when STarblaydia reached the Finals for the first time in World Cup 17, as well as two AOCAF tournaments and a Cup of Harmony.

He scored two goals in his senior international career, both in the 3rd AOCAF where be netted in wins against future fellow Strategic Alliance nations Abattoir and Xile. In his final tournament for Starblaydia, the 4th AOCAF, he was a 30 year-old reserve member of the squad that took home Starblaydia's first international trophy when they beat NEWI Cefn Druids 2-1.
