- His name comes from American poet, editor and critic Rufus Wilmot Griswold, who had a very long-lasting feud with Edgar Allan Poe.
- His character is based off the character of Fortunato from The Cask of Amontillado, as they both die immured by their respective main characters, both pretend to be experts on wine (Amontillado) and both dress as jesters for their respective party. Also, Fortunato was kept as the name of the company.
