Greeting Mercenaries, priests of the faith of dead heroes, Knights of the Land and any of the many of those who considered Rufus a friend,

I regret to inform you all of Rufus' passing in his current form.

Now where to start... Rufus, was an incredible trouble maker. He didn't care much for the law, he pretty much did what he wanted, when he wanted as long as he thought he was doing the right thing - most of the time, it wasn't.

He was immature, irrational, and mostly an idiot.

This doesn't however change the courage in his heart, and the love he had for his friends, his land and his people. You just had to respect sometimes his frank honesty, even if he was wrong. Thing is, he knew the difference between right and wrong, he just struggled to actually do the right thing sometimes. One thing he did do, was stand by his friends, his knights and those who couldn't look after themselves. He was a stalwart companion, and in a tough situation, you could always, eventually rely on him.

He has come a long way, and learnt so much. His soul has moved from body to body slightly different each time but in each body, and in each life he has become a better person through it. As the wheel has turned, he has elevated each time to become the person he is today. He has learnt from the spirits that have inhabited before, from Tallios of Talthar, to Sinistrade. He has seen this world through different eyes and has fought for it in different ways.

He died for the last time among his brother knights and some of his closest friends. He will be missed for a time, but we all know - irritating as he could be, he will not be kept out for long. Probably because no heaven or afterlife will have him...

Even after I stood down from the Lord Knight election, the little [----] has still managed to cause me grief even after his death, by granting me the honour of Lord Unity, thus leaving me in charge of all the Knightly paperwork while he has gone - I am sure he will miraculously appear once it has all been done. Never did like too much hard work that boy, unless it was a good fight.

Let's raise a glass (or well, sock/bandana covered tin) of shnizzle in his name tonight.

Rest well young one, make your next life count. You have a tough year ahead.

High Priest of Dead Heroes

Baron of Fort Fallen Claw

I've known Rufus for a fair time and I agree with everything that has been said about him here.

When I look at Rufus I can't claim to have ever seen a 'Lord Knight'...but I did always see a brother and that's enough.

Hurry back Lord Knight.


Valentine.

I met Rufus a couple of times, a short man with anger issues but with a heart in the right place.

Well hope he hurry up and come back as I would like to see what he gets upto as Lord Knight.

RUK MET RUFUS ONCE.

HE WAS FEARLESS, THOUGH IT CAUSED HIS DEATH.

HOPE HE COMES BACK WITH WIZDOM TO LEAD KNIGHTS.

I too only met Rufus once. He was a stalwart ally who led the way into every fight. And he seemed to possess a true joy in squeezing everything from his life.

I hope he retains these qualities when he returns to us. And wish him luck and success in his role as Lord Knight.

May Harmony guide his thoughts, and Purpose his actions,

When I first met Rufus, like Andric I thought he was irreverent, immature and absolutely infuriating. He was all of those things. But he was also much more, a fact that I wish I had discovered more than a few weeks before his final death. It takes a lot of courage to know that you will never be perfect, but dare to try regardless - and Rufus was so very brave.

I hope he returns to us every bit as troublesome as he was before. Knowing him, I have faith that he'll exceed every expectation.

His files generally have more black ink than red. The amount of red has slowly, but surely, decreased with each iteration of Rufus. This is a good thing.

I look forward to perusing his new file and have faith that it will have even less red ink.
