Character History
Rubbin and Rudolph were both part of the same mercenary group. Ten years has passed since Rudolph has seen Rubbin. Rubbin came to Saerloon to work as a mercenary in the Night Masks. Rubbin was not well educated, and he did not know what he was getting into. Rubbin failed his first mission. The members of Night Masks in Saerloon knew the truth behind his failure, but used that to own him. Rubbin was forced into submission. He worked in the Night Masks until the organization fall. As a result of the fall, several people sought to join a new organization. The Devil's Laugh was not new, but its emergence to the surface was new. The Devil's Laugh gained a great deal of power capitalizing from the downfall of other organizations. When given a new opportunity, Rubbin became very vindictive towards his past masters. Rubbin Kaizer sold out remaining members of the Night Masks and Fire Knives that were in Saerloon and that bridged the gap between Sembia and Cormyr. His actions allowed him to gain real power within the Devil's Laugh, where he started building up his reputation.

As the leader of the Devil's Laugh in Saerloon, Rubbin Kaizer had strong connections with the of the head of the organization. Rubbin Kaizer originally worked under Drenelith, the ruler of the Devil's Laugh in Ordulin until he changed the direction of the organization.

Rubbin Kaizer was working with the Blue Wizards and another anti-Red Wizard movement lead by half elf referred to as "Tal". Rubbin Kaizer actually allied himself with the chaotic forces of good to strike down the Red Wizards that were in support of the Devil's Laugh in Ordulin.

Rubbin Kaizer also supported the Morninglords of Lathander that were there against the Shaarans and against the Cult of the Dragon. Rubbin supported the Morninglords because Boxworth was part of the same voting block as Callahan and Boxworth.

Current Whereabouts / Activities
Rubbin is the head of the Devil's Laugh in Saerloon. There is a rebellion starting from the organization's base in Ordulin. The organization started in Saerloon, but Drelenore, the leader of the Devil's Laugh in Sembia, moved to Ordulin to obtain political power within Sembia. Since the leader has defected, Rubbin has been working with the leader of the entire organization to stop the rogue cells.

Rubbin has a connection with the party because of his brother Rudolph Kaizer. Unlike Rubbin, Rudolph is not quit witted or savvy in dealing with others. Rubbin Kaizer easily manipulated his brother and found a secret operative for the Devil's Laugh that he know that Drelenore in Ordulin didn't know about.

Rubbin currently resides in Saerloon, gathering forces to stop the opposing Devil's Laugh in Ordulin that seeks to bring Mephistopheles to the Material Plane.

Deceased: Kythorn 12th, 1378

The actions leading to Rubbin's death started with his involvement with the Blue Orchid. He hired her to spy on Boxworth since he was a Red Wizard. Rubbin had learned of Tillenbirg just after his arrival. Rubbin Kaizer has always been suspicious of Zalnulphir, but found it awkward that Drelenore would defect. Zalnulphir's religion made her suspicious since the Devil's Laugh was primarily made from worshipers of Mask. When Lolth became silent for a period of time, she switched to Mephistopheles with other in her family name in the Underdark. This made Tillenbirg a prime suspect as the head of the Cult of Mephistopeheles.

Rinald Boxworth's loose coincidence between his enemies and Searloon would lead to Rubbin's downfall.

Rubbin Kaizer was killed in battle with Lady Merelith and the party. His party fought on the docks in Saerloon next to a newly arrived merchant vessel owned by the Devil's Laugh. Rubbin Kaizer's party including his brother and former Player Character, Rudolph Kaizer were slain by Calvin Ford in a massive acidic inferno.
