Though he has lived through several ages the period he liked most was the 1920’s. For the last eighty years he has lived the life of a gentleman gangster and so his style is appropriate to that.

Being born in 1782 Rufus took on many of the attitudes and values of the regency period. Yet, unlike many men of his age, he has constantly managed to adjust himself to changing times. He has been something of an adventurer for most of his life. Rufus joined the army to see the world and have fun. But the first world war changed him. He became more introverted and began his criminal lifestyle soon after. Despite the darkness of his past he remains a gentleman and clings to his sense of honour.
The rest!!

The history::
Born in 1782 Rufus grew up as the son of a prominent gentleman. His father, Izambard, was one of the first founders of the free court and is the Fuoco representative. As a result Rufus’ early life was comfortable and free compared to most elementals of the time. From an early age Rufus dreamed of being a brave adventurer, as those in the books in his fathers library.
In 1807 Rufus joined the army as a Major in a cavalry regiment. He discovered he had a talent for organising men and campaigns and four years later was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. After the Napoleonic wars Rufus went on to fight in the American civil war, the Crimea, the Boer war and both world wars where he distinguished himself in the second armoured division. But it was WW1 and what he experienced at the Somme that changed him forever.
Between the wars Rufus lived in America, where he married his first wife Holly. After the war she helped him to overcome his experiences and enjoy life. This was the happiest time of his life and he has sought to retain as much of it as he can. But in 1933 Holly was killed after a business deal with some vampyres turned sour. After this he returned to England and set himself back to the condition he was in before he met Holly.
After the second world war Rufus established himself as a crime boss in London. Rising in status he became the head of a large criminal organisation in the mid fifties. Rufus continued running things until the mid eighties. With his control of the ‘company’ undisputed Rufus took a step back from the everyday business to become an agent for aspiring young talents. In the seventy six years since Holly’s death Rufus has had several girlfriends but never allows any of them to get under his skin.
