Description
Up next we have Sean Connery Katswell's old arch-nemesis, and Ivonne's former employer, 's villainous Ripclaw.
Now, Ripclaw really didn't have much of a color scheme, so I provided my own coloring for him. liked it, and she said it was pretty close to how SHE envisioned him in color. Well, I'm glad ya think so. ^^
Anyway, let's get on with him. ^^
Real name: Unknown
Date of birth: March 15, 1962

Affliation(s): Ripclaw
Katswell Status: Enemy
Powers & Abilities:
Ripclaw's main weapon of choice is, of course, his metallic claw, which can crush almost anything. It also has a built in laser gun hidden inside. His normal claw is just as powerful and lethal. Ripclaw will often have his minions do the beating, but when he gets angry, he's ready to bring the pain. When he really gets serious about fighting, he'll cast off his trenchcoat and charge at his victim on all fours, like a feral wolverine.

Bio:
Ripclaw's real name and backstory before he turned to crime is unknown. He once worked as a lackey in a criminal organization and was known for his bad temper and vicious personality. It was that temper that actually caused Ripclaw to lose his right hand in a fight with Sean Connery Katswell when he was a TUFF rookie. The loss of his hand taught Ripclaw a valuable lesson: Power without control is useless and weak. He had his hand replaced with a metal one, though not as powerful as the one he possesses now.
Ripclaw learned to somewhat control his temper and soon became a cold, calculating, and manipulative criminal. He learned how to control and direct from behind the scenes and was soon turning the tables on those he worked for. Little by little Ripclaw worked his way up and soon became the boss of the organization he once worked for. He began to recruit others into it, sometimes by force. He also had the technical geniuses who worked there, make him a bigger, more powerful metal claw. Since then, as Sean became the face of TUFF, Ripclaw swore revenge on him for costing him his hand, and officially declared himself as Sean Connery Katswell's arch-nemesis.
Years later, Ripclaw was then arrested by Sean for his crimes, but he still continued to be a threat even behind bars. Thanks to his second-in-command, Silas Mane, acting in his stead at his headquarters, he was able to maintain his criminal activities by posing his organization as a toy factory. This was how Kitty's old high school friends, Ivonne Delphidae and Ava Monitor, got involved in his criminal endeavors, and started working for him. Unfortunately for them, their old rival, Terrence Whiptail, joined his ranks, too due to his family ties with him. Since then, he has kept a closer eye on them from his prison cell.
Eventually, Ripclaw was released from prison due to Silas paying his bail, and began plotting to kill Sean Connery Katswell for putting him in prison. Unfortunately, Terrence told him that Sean was killed by Guar, and the only known Katswell working at TUFF was Kitty herself. So, in an attempt to lure her out, Ripclaw ordered Terrence, K.O., and SteelTusk to kidnap five TUFF interns, and threaten to throw them off the Petropolis Radio Tower if the city didn't give into his demands. But, as he expected, Kitty and the rest of Team Katswell came to rescue the kidnapped interns, and while the rest of the team was busy getting them to safety, Ripclaw proceeded to do battle with his old enemy's daughter. But, he didn't count on Ivonne and Ava turning against him, and helping Kitty defeat him. Ripclaw was able to escape arrest once the authorities came, and has since been a regular enemy for Kitty and the rest of TUFF to face.
Personality & Traits:
Ripclaw is an intelligent criminal mastermind who works behind the scenes. He mostly sends out his agents to do his work. He is like a puppetmaster, controlling events from the shadows. His temperment can be quite calm, which makes him even more unsettling to be around.
Lately though, Ripclaw has been struggling more and more to keep his inner rage under control and may be slowly losing his sanity from holding in his rage for so long. Recently, he's been developing a plan to shut down Petropolis' technology, which would enable him to seize control. However, beneath that lies an even sinister plan in which he will even turn against his own agents.
When it comes to other criminals and whom he hires into his organization, Ripclaw has been known to double-cross anyone. He also sees most other criminal organizations such as DOOM and the Crimson Komodo Clan as inferior, whiny crybabies. Ripclaw is almost certain that nothing can ruin his chances of seizing control of Petropolis and later, the world.
So, that's Ripclaw's interpretation for "TUFF: Team Katswell." Hope you like it, CD!

Ah, good 'ol Ripclaw, now there's a face I haven't seen in a long time.
Yep, your color scheme is pretty close to what I pictured for him, except I pictured him having a grey coat and pants(though black pants seem to look better). Haha, I didn't even think of the Sonic similarities until I saw the front profile here.XD The thought of Ripclaw having his organization disguised as a toy factory still amuses me. I can picture him making insane toys similar to what Darkwing Duck's Quackerjack made.XD
Nice job on 'ol Rip here.

Yeah, I'll say.
Oh, thanks. I figured I was sorta close with the color scheme. But, hey, glad you dig the black pants.
Yeah, me too. The possibilities for evil toy weapons are endless when it comes to THAT. XD
Thanks. Really appreciate it. ^^

This is Sonic when he becomes even more ticked off as the Werehog. lol In all seriousness, though, that's a really rad hairstyle he's got there! The blue jacket really gives him style, and I like how he has red eyes. A very vicious looking design, indeed!
It's interesting how he has a mighty temper, but can still be quite calm until he randomly explodes. That would certainly make it scary to work with someone like him, that's for sure. I feel even worse for his cronies since he's willing to dispose of them when his plans are complete. Then again, they're bad people, and they knew they were getting into bad business, so they sort of have it coming.
It's good to know that Creative-Dreamr likes this redesign as well. ^^

Yeah, it's the Werehog on crack! XD But, all joking aside, it's still a pretty badass design for Ripclaw.
Yeah, it's rare to see those kinds of villains these days. And, his cronies clearly don't have it easy when working for him, either. Just goes to show that nobody ever reads the fine print when reading a contract for a new job.
Me too. I'm glad she dug it. ^^

He does look quite tough for a villain in this profile picture you've done of him, and I'll admit that his hairstyle does have an uncanny resemblance to that of a certain blue hedgehog we all know and love.
