Rip:
While not my first creation, Rip originated from me needing a brother for Razor. Because he was so much more popular back a few years ago, I switched from using Razor as my fursona to Rip and had that since recently. Also another fun fact about Rip is, Rip was never his official name. If anyone's read my first story, "Discover This", you'd notice it was Kay who actually named Rip. Rip didnt like to be called by his code name, 103 A7 so Kay called him Rip because she saw his huge "ripped" spot on his back. Rip decided that was alright with him and it stuck.
Also, the story, "Through Scarred Eyes" had ton's of errors, like how his brother's and sister's would call him Rip as if that was his name to begin with. Rip wasnt always a cyborg as some of you already know. He was captured in the story, "Through Scarred Eyes" along with Diamond, the youngest of all 5 who is still missing, while "Discover This" talked about what happened AFTER the transformation and how he escaped. Because of the transformation, this is a reason Rip can no longer grow. Most of his skeleton is encased in titanium (legs, ribs, tail, top areas of skull and muzzle) and his chest has a titanium plated (that was later ripped out in "Desert Storm"). He'll always remain in a puppy's appearence even after years. Rip's rip on his back was meant to be something significant, but I rubbed out that idea, for another failed one, a large cannon. So now, its unknown if anything special is to be held with it.
Another interesting thing about Rip is his silver collar. I had it to spark on occasions since Rip was an unfinished project but again, I rubbed that out. If anyone has noticed, my yahoo screen name is Silverco101. That translates into SilverCollar101dalmatians. Rip's nervous system is integrated into that specially made collar so if his vitals should ever flatline behind enemy lines, he'd self destruct (there is also a set phrase that can be said to make him go offline without exploding). This measure was so that the enemy couldnt gather the scraps to recreated the top secret unit and retaliate. After all, Rip was created entirely to fight in covert and international warfares.
Because Rip escaped after he was supposed to have been terminated (along with other models and normals), they, the Cru LabTech, created one last model. Model 105 Omega, also better known as The Grim Reaper. The most highest ranking of all models, the most improved, self learning, fully mechanical robot to hunt down and destory model 103 A7 first, then the rest of the escaped models.
Rip's relationship with 104 A7
After Rip freed the other captives, most that were not yet used in any experiments, he stumbled upon one who wouldnt budge from their cage. It was bio-model 104 A7, or better known as Kay. Stating she had no home or place to go, Rip later discovered she was actually test tubed, meaning, she wasnt born from another dog but cloned in the same lab. Rip took her under his care and allowed for her to follow him. After defending Kay against various street dogs, one named Dobe in particular, they both soon found there way onto the Dearly's bus not knowing they'd meet another set of dogs already there.
Not much as been continued after said event but it seemed Rip eventually left Kay. While thats not offical, nothing else has been made or stated otherwise, so the book is still open.

-Update-
Currently, there has been a major hold on Rip's storyline. But for the sake of 101 Dalmatians, Rip will have to exsist in two different worlds. One as a Dalmatian, the other as a German Shepherd Husky mix. However, Rip no longer has other siblings aside from Diamond. Nothing has been mentioned about her so her story is a blur and in the works. Because of the sudden change in Rip's story, "Through Scarred Eyes" no longer applies as Razor, Casey, and Rocky are no longer related to Rip and Diamond.
Plans have been made to rewrite the entire history of Rip, and with doing so could very well feature some fan-made characters, along with original characters.
This would include, Reeve, Clover, 2247, Wrath, Kitty Kate, Mod, and a whole list of potential others.
