Drufos Lador was the king of Ari who replaced Koloy Mardis. He is notable for having started his career as a poet and having killed Rufu Aoa in battle in 1674.

Drufos claimed to have been born in Tarif and frequently told stories about his life in Tarif. In spite of this, all available records only document his life in Garon.

According to Drufos, he arrived to Garon, having escaped the boring life of his wealthy family in Tarif. He then began living a challenging life of poverty on the streets of the city and became known as a poet and storyteller, whose themes focused on tradition and power as sin.
