If you met Ruddy, the general instant vibe you would get from him would be consistent with tar. Dark, viscous, and burning. Someone that seems to suck the life from the room even if he’s just standing there without speaking. A sinking feeling that maybe something worse was on the horizon. A man without consciousness or empathy.

He keeps his words mostly short and to the point. Cutting bullshit, and not putting up with bullshit. Call him a hard-ass, but that’s simply how he lives. He speaks only for the purpose, never for fun. Or rarely.

However… Deep down… He is a kind, caring, and loving man. Someone who’d have your back if you were close to him - though that task is not easy. Those whom he holds dear, some of those walls may lower and more of an unfiltered Ruddy comes through as an individual who just wants the best for those around him.
