Filnius Vladimir Svalbard Ruddock was hatched in Berowra, New South Wales, the spawn of the devil, and also a river of evil. Ruddock grew as a canker on the bowel of the Juggernaut and supped from the teat of Filligon the Mad a Duke of Hell, who commands nine legions of fiends. He grew up and, like about all of te leaders of the Free World, attended select boys grammar schools and Cambridge, there studying law, sex, and the neks of lissome harlots.
