## History

From a young age, Ragnar IV had always taken his father's advice in a selfish, twisted way, refusing to call himself Ragnar, instead using various nicknames.

Soon after, Ragnar IV began using strength-enhancing drugs, he came to believe that eating fallen foes gave him strength. This led to him murdering his best friend in a bar and eating his remains. Soon after, at the same bar, his father came to confront him but was beaten unconscious. He took his father's eye and left Atlas. His father suspects that sometime after, he sold out the village to the Steam pipe pirates.

After leaving Atlas, Ragnar moves to The New World and Founds and becomes the CEO of Ragnar Inc and recruited The Butcher, Page, Ledger, Wonga and Richie. They work as a cannibal meat packing/distribution company under Blue Blood. Months later, Page is tasked with Bring Ragnar IV his father and so transports The Devil's Luck Pirates into Ragnar's territory. Eventually, The Devil's Luck Pirates make their way to Ragnar Island and Battle with Ragnar IV.
