Rusan is a human bookseller in Nicodranas. As an NPC, Rusan is played by Matthew Mercer.

Description[edit | edit source]

Rusan is a scrawny, scrappy-looking man in his late 30s or early 40s. His hair is combed back, slicked, but little pieces of it are falling in front of his eyes. He has a little bit of scruff on his upper lip, not enough to actually be considered a mustache.[1]

Biography[edit | edit source]

Background[edit | edit source]

Rusan is the owner of Front to Back, a small book shop in Nicodranas. He has a calico cat.[2]

"Homeward Bound" (2x48)[edit | edit source]

Caleb, Jester, and Nott visit the shop, purchasing a great deal of paper, a romance novel about two sailors, a history of Nicodranas, a pastry cookbook, and a mushroom cookbook. While Rusan was out fetching more paper, Jester painted a dick on the front of his sign, and a little booty on the back.

Appearances and mentions[edit | edit source]

Quotations[edit | edit source]

  • Rusan: (After Caleb's awkward improvised slam poetry) "Keep at it."
    Caleb: So just the paper, I suppose.
    Rusan: "Hey." He leans forward and pats you on the shoulder. "Everyone starts somewhere, right?"
