The sound of rushing water, the smell of salt, and the briefest glimpse of red-blond hair: the last things most of Ruadh's enemies sense before their lives are snuffed out.
An experienced strategist (and well aware of Entrati's mode of operation), Ruadh only took the Protoframe injection after many hours of study... and a few experiments of his own.
Orokin gold befits the pirate captain, does it not?
(more info & split images below cut)
Ruadh is my brother's Proto!Drifter (and Ayhan/Aíbinn's older brother!).
He barely survived 'putting down' their parents, pushing himself beyond his limits upon hearing Aíbinn scream. He believes her to have been killed by an Angel ambushing her in the hallway back to the classrooms.
His name means 'red,' bc of 1) his hair color and 2) a very dumb inside joke between my brother and I. It also took a LOT of thought for him to choose a frame that wasn't Excalibur in the planning stages of this design XD
the main thing i learned from this design is that Orowyrms are a pain in the neck to draw /hj
