Ray Dark
CharacterRay Dark presides over PIFA as its president and stands as the man who first ushered Michael Kaiser into professional football. Once brought aboard by the governing body, he assembled the New Generation World XI, treating the sport chiefly as a matter of revenue.
Appearance
Ray Dark cuts a memorable figure with flowing long hair and a beard shaped into a ducktail point. Deep creases line his forehead, marks of a life well lived, and a chain earring hangs from his left ear. He favors a refined suit and is never without the cane he keeps at his side.
Personality
Judging by the line he passes along to Buratsuta, Ray Dark plainly views football as pure commerce. His willingness to back a proposal hinges entirely on the money it stands to bring in, and that bottom-line calculation is what won his agreement in the first place.
