'''Ruto''' is the pseudonym of a no-questions-asked private contractor with ties to [[StarCitizen:Stanton system|Stanton]]'s pirate gangs including [[StarCitizen: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 [[StarCitizen:GrimHEX]] that spoofs the face of former [[StarCitizen:Imperator]] [[StarCitizen: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 [[StarCitizen:Nine Tails]]. Certain immature quips made by Ruto however imply they may not be that old.<ref name="ingame">{{SC/Cite game|build=[[Update:Star Citizen Alpha 3.13.0|Alpha 3.13.0]]|text=In-game survey}}</ref> 

==Development==
Ruto is one of the first two [[StarCitizen:Mission Givers]] added in [[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.0.0|Alpha 3.0.0]] along with [[StarCitizen: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 [[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.1.0|3.1]] by gaining a reputation from other missions. He is portrayed by [[StarCitizen:Ortwin Freyermuth]].<ref name=":0">Citation needed.</ref>

The costume that Ruto is wearing is a variation of the [[StarCitizen:Bridge officer uniform|bridge officer uniforms]].<ref name=":0" />

==Reputation==
Ruto can provide the player with some missions. He is allied with the [[StarCitizen:Nine Tails]] and has a rivalry with the [[StarCitizen:Advocacy]] and [[StarCitizen:Vaughn]].<ref name="ingame" />
