BACKSTORY: Born into a wealthy, highly respected family of land leasers, Rue was unsurprisingly taught to follow in the footsteps of his decades old generation. Despite struggling with anger issues that he had inherited from his father, he learned to repress it similarly, instead keeping up the facade of calmness, composure, and control. Rue is expected to inherit the land owned by his parents, becoming a land-owner as well, meet a woman, preferably from a rich family, marry and have kids with her who will also go on to inherit, continuing the tradition. One of the main suggestions for this marriage was Marsha, the daughter of a close business associate of his parents, and this 'backup' has served to come in handy as Rue is not currently in a relationship despite having had multiple in the past.
