Rufus Olaran is a former priest of Oghma who has since joined The Chosen as a follower of Ramil.
Rufus was once betrothed to Líria Kente, who birthed their child Drake in Tillë, but her family disapproved of the union, so Rufus parted ways with Líria and took Drake with him to learn the teachings of Oghma.
When Drake was old enough to fend for himself, Rufus once again left his family, this time to try and preach the word of Oghma to the various tribes of Barria. Rufus had some success in his evangelizing efforts with the Mawlin nomads, but when he spoke to the humans of Ramila, he was soon swayed by their devotion to the deva Ramil, and he abandoned both his efforts of conversion and his own connection to Oghma in favor of joining their cult. Now a priest of The Chosen, Rufus furthers the efforts of the Ramilan people and their deva, spreading their beliefs and seeking their future champion.
