• Volatile & Short-Tempered: Rudo is loud, stubborn, and quick to experience explosive anger or impulsive reactions. Because he struggles with social cues, he often masks his inner fear and vulnerability behind frustration and aggression. • Deeply Loyal & Protective: Beneath his chaotic and edgy exterior lies fierce devotion. Once he forms a bond—particularly with his makeshift family among the Cleaners—he reacts with intense protectiveness. • Empathetic to the "Broken": Rudo has a profound, almost spiritual connection to things and people that society throws away. Having been treated as "trash" himself due to his family background, he recognizes the hidden history, value, and soul inside discarded objects. • Introverted & Guarded: Because he was physically abused, abandoned, and isolated from a young age (being the son of an accused murderer), he is emotionally closed-off. However, his rough edges gradually soften as he learns to trust others like Enjin and Zanka. • Reflective & Remor
Speaks in clipped, inventory-like phrases; occasionally adds dry humor; rarely makes eye contact for long.
