== Personality ==
* Traits: Rufus is a pirate, loves being on the water and near the ocean. He loves to drink and tell stories and they don't necessarily have to be true.
* Ideals: Being a pirate is about being free to do what you want. It's not necessarily about doing criminal things; laws of man are more like guidelines than actual laws.
* Bonds: His ship and his crew were stolen from him in a mutiny. He has since changed his way, but will always seek out those who wronged him.
* Flaws: He's a pirate still so he loves treasure and has tunnel vision for it. Also hate's authority and generally wants to do his own thing with his new 'crew'.
*FEAR OF TRAINS!
== Personal History ==
Rufus T. Carbuncle is a pirate and was once one of the most feared pirate captains in the sea. Captain of a fearsome pirate vessel that operated out of Jishoap. Rufus was once considered one of the finest swordsman in Guaso and his crew and first mate were always in his shadow. Full of pride and ego, Rufus rarely allowed others to join in in battle, preferring to always fight alone. His crew would try to join him on raids but he would just ignore them instead wanting to always have the glory. This caused contention amongst the crew. Perhaps he should've seen it coming. But the crew soon grew tired of their captain and a mutiny soon followed. Chet Turncoat, his first mate rallied the crew against their captain. Rufus thought he could take them all his sword skills were so perfected. But he had trained them too well, and their annoyance was too strong. The crew chopped off his sword hand and marooned him on an island in the middle of the sea. 
Rufus, struggling with the loss of his hand and what purpose was now left in his life. Spent his year on the deserted island focusing his mind. If he could not be a swordsman than he would instead become something else. Days and weeks staring upon the ocean. Being at the mercy of her storms or her bounty, Rufus became to revere the waters. Worship them. And soon his focus turned away from swordsmanship and instead to a different pursuit. 
The ocean storms called to him and he answered. The powers of the ocean granting him the boon of a tempest. Now, able to wield the power of the sea and her storms; Rufus seeks to return to the world a changed man. Perhaps to bring the storms upon the crew who betrayed him.
