Ruto

Ruto is the pseudonym of a no-questions-asked private contractor with ties to Stanton's pirate gangs including Nine Tails. He is one of the best known info brokers in Stanton. His the true identity remains a complete mystery, as 'he' only deals via a video terminal in a back-room on GrimHEX that spoofs the face of former Imperator Kelos Costigan, due to their immense dislike for him.

Ruto manages a vast network of criminal activity, connections, and knowledge for clients such as the Nine Tails. Certain immature quips made by Ruto however imply he/she may not be that old.

Development
Ruto is one of the first two Mission Givers added in Alpha 3.0 along with Miles Eckhart, and his hologram display is the first in-game use of render-to-texture functionality in Star Citizen. While Ruto was not initially functional as a Mission Giver due to unforeseen issues, his missions can be unlocked as of 3.1 by gaining a reputation from other missions. He is portrayed by Ortwin Freyermuth.

Reputation
Ruto can provide the player with some missions. He is allied with the Nine Tails and has a rivalry with the Advocacy and Vaughn.
