Notes:
Ripster is the oldest of the Bolton siblings and leader of the pack. Always in control of the situation, Ripster is regardless in his search for his father and for the truth about Dr. Paradigm. Ripster has a double major in biology and engineering, which helps the brothers to understand their father's research and that of Dr. Paradigm. Before he was changed into half man-half shark, Ripster had plans to join a rock 'n' roll band and to tour the country, later joining his father in his research for a better understanding of marine biology. Having his plans crushed, Ripster has stood up to the fact that his future won't be as he planned. He hides his heartache and continues to be a great support to his younger brothers & sister. And usually would be the first to stand up for them.
