Lord Ios Rufus

Lord of Hommlet, warrior

Lord Rufus is a Lord of Hommlet. He has cool, blue-green eyes and shoulder-length brown hair. His skin is light bronze and he is tall and muscular. He usually wears colors similar to Byrne: blues and grays, and prefers to attach his cloak at his neck with a large pearl and silver brooch. He wears an ornately decorated longsword and carries a shield denoting his heraldry: the Star of Cuthbert in the center, the tree symbol of Verbobonc in the upper left corner, the stone tower in the upper right, symbolizing Hommlet, a sickle in the lower left quadrant for his family lineage, and a coiled green dragon in the lower right quadrant.

Rufus is more mild-mannered than his co-lord Byrne. He is the lord that the locals prefer to deal with, as Rufus comes from mean birth and has worked his way up to his current status as Lord of Hommlet through his many exploits. Rufus has a good rapport with farmers, soldiers, and even nobles, who often sense his genuine, honest nature.
