Rip has always been on odd one even since birth, starting that he was born one week later than his five older siblings. Many thought he had a genetic problem since he was quite small even for an infant fresh out of the egg. Rips brothers and sisters always made fun of him for being shorter than all the others calling names like Rip the Runt, Squirt, Shorty, anything that insulted him. Ohters thought he was just too stupid to hatch on time with the others. These insults also came from others as well. Rip usually went to his parents for comfort and companionship since he was always teased by his peers for his size. Though deep down, Rip knew that if he kept turning to his parents for safety, that would make him look even weaker in the eyes of others. With that, Rip made up his mind to live his life on his own away from the world he was growing up in. His parents willing to support an decision he made, they accepted his choice to head out on his own when he turned 13. Leaving his family behind, Rip's will kept him going on the road that lead him away from his tormentors.
At the age of 16, Rip gained a rebellious attitude like most teens. The cobra stole what he needed to pass by for the day and stole valueables he thought would sell at a high price. He got a tattoo of a skull ontop of his hood with some of the money he got. His skills in sneaking and stealth when it came to stealing caught the attention of most thieves and city leaders putting a bounty on his head for theft. It was around this time, Rip began to become a smuggler to those city's once their laws gotten more strict. Getting any kind of supplies a town or city needed that the ones who ran those territories wouldn't allow the people to have. Rip usually works for others if they pay the right price, if not he's in the job for himself.
Two years later Rip had become a straight up smart mouth to those he didn't respect, which was about everyone he has met and often was literal to people just to mess with them. He also found himself becoming a treasure hunter and a pick pocket, since he has found ways for city folk to smuggle in supplies for themselves. Every piece of gold, diamond, silver, anything he found on his hunts he sold for very high prices, also making sure that he sent some of his earnings to his mother and father since he still cared for them deep down. Rip also took any job that paid a decent price to his standards. During his jobs in either theft or smuggling, Rip tries his best not to take any lives even when he's being chased by the authorities, but it doesn't mean he has never taken another life.
Rip may talk alot and act tough for someone his size, but he's actually a soft guy at heart. He never steals from the innocent and is very irritated when he hears or sees someone being mistreated for nothing or for something that makes them different from the rest. When it comes to women, Rip is pretty bashful, though he does try his best to keep his cool.
Running low on money when he just turned 22, Rip got word of mercenaries just finishing a job and began to head back to their base and decided to take a risk and following them to see if they had anything valueable to steal and sell. If he stole from them, it may put his name back on the map, but if he got caught, he had to try and escape with his life. It was all going smoothly until he dropped what he was trying to steal. With that, it was a man hunt for the small cobra. The chase went on all night until he was finally cornered, getting a tear in his hood and a cut on his left arm and on his chest during the chase. But seeing that he managed to evade them for hours got him an offer. Supply them with what they needed, or die right there. Rip didn't hesitate, his life is worth the hassle for getting them supplies. But it doesn't mean he couldn't work for others, but the mercs began to become his best customers, so he slowly began to work with them more and more, creating on and off friendships with some of them. Despite all that has happened, Rip continues to send close to half of his earnings to his parents for believing in him. Rip works to prove that he is more than his critics say he is.
Decided to change his attire abit, mainly just getting rid of the sleeves on his jacket and added som random bands. Also changed the color of his scales to a jade-ish color green. =/ And I didn't notice until it was finished that his right arm is longer than the left -_-' Eh.
