The fifth son of the Rutgar family, a noble line stretching back just under a thousand years in the Swabian Vale, none of his family expected him to accomplish much. All of his older brothers and two of his sisters were either refined courtiers, married to other old dynasties, masterful commanders or daring statesmen. There simply wasn't much else for him to accomplish. Any marriage alliances he could bring to the family would be lesser, the Messers of the city were already wary of having so many Rutgar's in positions of power so those routes were barred to him, his parents fearing that if Roderick entered either the political or military career, it would be seen as an attempt to overthrow the council and establish a new line of kings.<br/><br/>Of course, nobody told Roderick that. All he knew growing up was that whenever he showed some desire to follow his older brothers, it was blocked. By the time he was in his early teens, he had stopped trying to better himself, hardly going to any of his lessons outside of the fencing school. He would often go off hunting for days at a time, accompanied only by his valet and one of the huntsmen employed by the family. Meanwhile, his parents were baffled by the lifestyle Roderick was beginning to lead, though they were unable to connect it to any of their actions. They just believed the boy was a lazy hedonist.<br/><br/>Of course, that was turning out to be true. By his late teens he was actively slumming, and had become the dark stain on the impeccable honour of the Rutgar family. Drinking, whoring, brawling and dueling with other youths to gain scars and prestige among their silly little social groups, had become his daily routine. The sheer amount of prestige the Rutgar family had always guaranteed him an invitation to the balls and banquets thrown by the nobility, and for many months his life was a cycle of drunken binges and wild parties.<br/><br/>Finally his parents had had enough. They had heard of a ship that was to explore the many different planes, and seeing a way to get Roderick away from the city, confronted him with an ultimatum. Either he would voluntarily sign on to join the crew, or he would be arrested the next day and thrown into the Oblivion Prison, his name wiped from public memory and anyone mentioning his name would be lashed in the town square.<br/><br/>Seeing no choice, he sullenly accepted the terms, and left the city of Doria, and wound up on the Sasskiana<br/></div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">EXISTING RELATIONSHIPS</div><div class="spoiler_body">(insert any connections you have with other characters here, if any)</div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">GENERAL PERSONALITY</div><div class="spoiler_body">Roderick isn't too happy about being aboard, having been forced into it by his parents.
