This is largely pertaining to this specific version of Rippah, although I've made others in the past. Also, some copy/pasting from Cuttah's profile just so this one isn't so dependent on having read that one first.

Much like a number of other iterations, Cuttah and Rippah are siblings. However, they are not the only ones (although Cuttah and Rippah are closest in age than most others, which aided in a closer relationship). They are from a place where a genetically altered race of roos live as troops for whatever conflict needs them, from as little as riot control to being soldiers in a war. However, while general consensus is that they are little more than tools, they are not so disrespected as to not be given decent living conditions, although it's not too dissimilar to army barracks.

As these creatures are genetically altered, there is a good chance that issues may arise. A number either die or are deemed unfit for use and are euthanized early on. Some do have some form of defect but can, in some way, be mitigated. And there are the rare instances where everything turns out perfectly.

Rippah is one such rare instance of everything going perfectly, although "perfect" is less a matter of a flawless job and more about a threshhold where there are no notable flaws that require any additional work (surgery, mental training, etc) to fix. Made slightly more beastial than others, this had the effect of giving him an alternate, more feral state. That said, he was more suited for covert operations at the time, and could very well defend himself or be a more aggressive attacker if need be. His ability to lower the temperature around him also helped mask his presence against heat sensors.

That said, over the year he grew to see his living conditions with contempt, not liking being seen as a mere tool. He eventually defected, becoming an active criminal in the process. He largely didn't care, he took to the "bad guy" role easily, and acted as such. And it should be noted that it was this period that saw Rippah over-endulge on food. especially cheesecake. The only real issue is when his siblings were sent in, especially Cuttah, whom he was closest to, as Rippah had a kill order on his head.

By some strange twist of fate, however, Rippah was taken into another realm by a particular mouse named Ziggy, although it was by complete accident. Rippah did terrorize them for a short period, but an odd sea creature who fancied herself as a "chocomancer" named Elhaym stopped him. By asking him out on a date. He saw this bizzare situation through, and began dating Elhaym.

Despite being made for covert operations, Rippah can be rather loud, especially with his belches. He still maintains his "bad boy" attitude at times but he has softened with Elhaym around. That said, Ziggy has kicked him out of her place several times, but for Elly, he will try to be on his best behavior. Usually. As mentioned before, he loves cheesecake and cold foods, and can be a "mobile fridge" if need be. He has even made cheesecake for others before, and takes great, great pride in them.

Cuttah has met with Rippah again, but as Ziggy's place is outside the juridstiction of where she is stationed at, she doesn't harm Rippah.
