    ― The Ripper, begging for his life.

    The Ripper (died 1886) was a notorious murderer who terrorised Whitechapel during the Victorian era. He was eventually killed by Sir Daniel Fortesque.

    History

    The Ripper was first encountered by Sir Dan while he was searching for Princess Kiya. Sir Dan found Kiya crawling away from the Ripper, but before he was able to reach her, The Ripper stabbed her with his claws and fled the scene. Daniel then retreated to the sewers to mourn Kiya's death, where he discovered the poster for a Time Machine prototype made by the Professor. He was able to reassemble the machine and reached Kiya before she was killed. Dan distracted The Ripper, who went after him instead of Kiya - their battle then begans.

    After being defeated, the Ripper begged Sir Dan for mercy. He was given none, and was killed with a single shot from Dan's pistol.

    Characteristics

    Appearance

    Most likely mutated because of the Spell of Eternal Darkness, he appeared as a monstrous beast with sharp, fearsome claws, wearing a top hat, the remnants of a brown jacket and grey pants.

    Gameplay

    The Ripper is fast and deals a lot of damage, and can rain some sort of energy. He is only vulnerable when he drops his guard in order to suck the life out of Kiya.

    Behind the scenes

    Development

    The Ripper's icon during the boss fight seems to be based on his concept art rather than his in-game appearance.
