Rumi Buffalo - Advisor
Rumi Buffalo was born an orphan on the Mongolian steppes. Raised by a now extinct species of wolves, he traveled across the Himalaya's on foot, to India where he studied with descended masters. At the age of 12 he was abducted by a traveling circus and forced into indentured servitude as a sideshow attraction. This gave him passage to America, and eventually the Applegate Valley where he lives in seclusion, meditating and playing the odd round of golf with his devotee Elvin the Helper.
