Rufus

Rufus is the notoriously foul-mouthed leader of the Foul Company. He recieved wide-spread fame when he was asked to present himself in front of the emperor of Tantus for a special assignment. As the frequently repeated story tells, he came as requested, but instead of bowing and showing any of the normal social graces he merely stood and asked "What the fuck do you want?"

An accomplished swordsman, another of his legends tells that he had once been invited to take a position in The Eight, to which he responded with a rude gesture and a promise to make more spots open for them if they continued to bother him.

Once captured by a branch of The Shadow led by Horatio, he was freed by the Iron Heroes, to whom he now says he owes a favor.
