When I saw ran passed me with a look of dread in his eyes I was curious who or what might've scared him....but when I saw an all to familiar emblem on a large tank behind him? let's just say I carelessly forgot my brown pants that day and it really showed. All kidding aside before Derek sent me those two troublemakers I commissioned him for two characters, one of which being an old one that's been rumored and whispered for quite some time that I kept forgetting to get around to...till now that is.

The ruthless patriarch of the Vainguard Household and main thorn in Gustav's side Rugal's the very definition of "intoxicated by money" due to his prospering business and his unquenchable thirst for power as he yearns to control all the regions with his business and iron-fisted rule. Called Ruthless Rugal for a reason this stern and cold-hearted businessman grew up in the backstreets of Black City, forced to fight to survive with every waking moment spelling disaster and near life-threatening doom that gave him the mentality "the strong rule while the weak are worthless" while his lifeless, almost soul-sucking glare became his default expression as he grew older and stronger with each passing year. Having a loving wife and a daughter he'd do almost anything for may have softened up the towering mass of ebony muscle but that glare of his aged like a fine wine and rarely leaves his stern mug unless he's with his family.

Rugal's not above dirtying his own hands within reason, often handling matters personally unless it's in an unfavorable climate like Orre then he'll send his daughter Naerah on his behalf to tend to any business matters. Time is money in Rugal's eyes and unless you're offering to buy more of it? the most you'll get out of him in terms of conversation is an unamused grunt while he carries on his day. Being the V.W.E CEO Rugal has the wealth and power to get practically anything he wants with a wave of his hand if he sees it fit, often using his wealth to bulldoze anyone/anything in his way when it comes to overtaking another business or another region once he has his sights set on it.

If there's one thing he shares in common with his enemy Gustav it's his disinterest and distain for Lady Bellatrix Sinclair, often finding any excuse possible to get far away from the Drapion unless backed into a corner with his only resort to ask the Darkrai for assistance in getting the hell outta dodge. Spite his age Rugal's definitely no frail old man not by a long shot, years of fighting for his life and to crawl his way to the top honed his body into an obsidian obelisk of strength and dexterity, looking more or less like a Machamp with two arms instead of four as he's often seen training in his personal gym whenever not handing business matters for V.W.E in his office.

At the end of the day Rugal is usually relaxing in his study with a glass of bourbon, reading business reports while listening to Mozart as he winds down after a long day and will use this down time to plan any proceedings or events in advance so when the day arrives he's not seen as a nervous wreck that'd buckle under pressure but rather seen as an abyssal colossus of stern fortitude and eerie, spine-chilling calmness that'll make you think twice before trying to bargain your way out of a meeting with Ruthless Rugal.
