Notes: Sir Richard Francis Burton is only the most recent Tao to take the role, and possibly its most enthusiastic adopter. He's just as bad, and good, as his historical namesake, exploring among the civilizations and cargo cults.
He has a neural mesh and has a huge collection of Locality competency lenses, mainly Locality (Cargo Cult). He has 5 Locality (Cargo Cult) Professions - pick ones that suit your game. If you want to make him like the historical one, he is likely to have more.
As with all Tao, Ruffian Dick has an additional twist each game to use for Intrigue, Empathy or Romance.
