History

Ruckus was abandoned as a child and raised by a clan of Miqo'te in the mountains. The Miqo'te were lead by a vicious ruler who wanted nothing but power and more territory.He saw Ruckus as a tool and raised him to be such. He was treated as a slave, beaten and abused, and when it came time for battle, they forced him to fight. He was a monster on the battlefield, and was thought to be a monster. He fell in love with one of the daughters of the chief after she befriended him, giving him some cookies she had made that her father did not like. Over time she taught him how to talk and read. When the Chief found out, he tore Ruckus's eye out and killed his daughter in front of him. Ruckus was banished from the clan and left for dead on the side of a mountain. Ruckus traveled in a daze for months. He encountered many animals that became close friends of his like his chocobo "Lil'Stampede" his duck "Lil'Ruckus" and his frog "Hip-Hop". Finally he found a roadhouse and shacked up, unaware of social norms he just walked in and started sleeping. The residents of the house were concerned at first with Ruckus and his habits of getting hurt, and breaking things by accident. After some talking they allowed him to stay. Time has passed and Ruckus has made many friends and adapted as well as he could to his new culture!

Personality

Ruckus prior to coming to Ul'Dah was mean and angry. He craved violence, and was only a step above a feral animal, but he has changed! After spending months wandering around he came to Ul'Dah a different person. Ruckus prides himself on his kindness and acceptance of others. He spent so much time killing and hating, and being angry that he wants to be good! Ruckus is a loyal friend, and everyone is his friend until they show him malice and hate. Ruckus tells people that he wants to put more good than bad into the world before he dies!

Appearance

Ruckus stands at 7 feet 8 inches. He is self conscious about his size as he was always told he was built to fight. He has dark brown hair that goes from long and in a pony tail to short and pushed back depending on if he has decided to get a hair cut.His eyes were originally both green, but after his eye was taken he got a replacement that is grey. Ruckus is covered in all manner of scars and tattoos. The scars range from small cuts to large gashes. Many were received on the battle field. There are a few distinct ones on his back that are obviously from a whip. He has some vary obvious ones on his face from when his eye was torn out. He has tattoos covering most the rest of his body. They are all symbols and runes of different kinds. There is a clear one in the center of his chest. A symbol that simply means "Beast." His hands are like the rest of his body but his knuckles seemed to have very distinguished marks from his fighting. His hands are rough like feeling paper that has small cuts in it. The tattoos that litter his face he had done after coming to Ul'Dah, and has yet to tell anyone what they mean.

Where is he Now?

Ruckus can be found many places! He can be found at almost any fighting event, as he loves to spar with his friends! If not there he could be at his bar that he owns and runs called "The Bloody Knuckle." A bar where people fight drink and have fun! There is lots of blood! If not there he spends his spare time picking flowers and doing all sorts of good deeds around Eorzea!
