Riddley is the great-great-grandson of Reed Sanger, the founder of the Redsky College of Necromagic. When he was younger, he strived for being just as grand as his ancestor, but he was often just short of gaining the recognition he desired. He even insisted that people called him by his nickname "Ridd" to sound close to Reed, but he was always regarded as a second option because other people excelled at things way better than him. That made him an arrogant and bitter person in the past, but as time passed, he started to realize he was making a fool of himself for trying to be what he wasn't. Attempting to force people to show especial respect for him just because he was the heir of the founder was actually just pushing people away from him, and he started to notice. He then began to focus on things he naturally excelled at instead of trying to simply be better than everyone else.
Riddley learned that being a descendant of Reed Sanger didn't mean that he had to become just as great as he was by any means necessary. He realized that Reed himself was humble about his achievements, and would never brag about his skill no matter how impressive. As he reconsidered his attitude, he figured that using "Ridd Sanger" as his name was also part of that act he wanted to distance himself from, so he decided to use "Riddley Abbot" from then on, as a symbol that he no longer wanted to be someone he wasn't.

Other Stuff
• Riddley breeds alphyns, gryphons and cockatrices as a hobby. His foundry name is Blackriddle and he has become quite popular for producing animals of excellent quality.
• He also participates in several gryphon riding competitions.
As the Headmistress of Redsky Necro, Margaret is his boss now, but they used to be classmates. They also dated at some point, but Riddley was still in his arrogant, trying-to-be-Reed phase so she got fed up and broke up with him. That left Riddley feeling particularly resentful when he heard that she was taking on the leadership of the college rather than him. But they've come to terms and now have entirely forgiven their past, looking to move on and respect each other for the good of the college.
