Rusty Calico

Rusty Calico is a 52-year-old Grey Elf, adventurer, nomad, outlaw, romantic, and member of the Knights Vanguard.

History
Rusty Calico is from the prestigious noble Calico family of the Celestine Empire. He left the life of luxury behind at a young age as his heart was called to wander the world to provide any aide he could to the less fortunate. He found himself, for most of the duration of his lonesome adventures, in the Steppes of Kesh, combating bandits and routing gangs of murderers.

He became bored, feeling he could find greater fulfillment elsewhere, thus ventured out to find a greater calling, perhaps help a damsel in distress or two. He found Collette, in need of guide and guard, and accompanied her to Tanis where they both joined the Knights Vanguard.

Rusty has always been rather erratic, and spontaneous in his behavior, making him a perfect match for his old nomadic lifestyle. It has always made him difficult to predict and somewhat of a chaotic element to the Vanguards endeavors.

Rusty has recently married to Veronika and is formally now known to the Imperium as "The Princess' Husband."

Characteristics
Rusty is an eternal eclectic dresser, always wearing a wild array of colors. He's most commonly seen in various reds, but has been seen in an outlandish combination of his native colors, the Celestine Empire's blue and white and the colors of his wife's family, the Imperium's black and gold. Rusty's dressing habits have never been easy on the eyes and generally makes him the center of attention. Whether the attention is positive or negative depends on the viewer.

Rusty is gifted with long, luxurious blond locks, and fair skin. Despite his age, Rusty is still youthful in appearance due to his Elven heritage.

Post-Coalition War
Rusty Calico, ever the wandering soul, still traverses his favorite playground, Kesh. Kesh is never lacking in wrongdoers, and damsels in distress, so thus the ever vigilant Rusty Calico must remain! He spends his days with his beloved Princess Veronika and together they freed their imprisoned siblings from the clutches of the devious Redfield.

Rusty spends the time Veronika is enlisted in Collette's service to galivant across the realms with his brother Richard Calico (sp?) and sister-in-law, Sophie Zechshelm.

Rumors

 * Papers say there was and perhaps still is a serious relationship between Lady Aimee and Rusty despite his current marriage to Princess Veronika. Quite a predicament.
 * There's been a few connections between Rusty and El Cali Rojo, but recent thefts and crimes in El Cali's name haven't matched up with Rusty's current known locations. All the more mystery to such an intriguing man.
