*CompleteMonster: [[AntagonistTitle The Ripper]] is a {{serial killer}} who feels inspired by the original UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper. The Ripper uses the computer technology of 2047 to make the many murders in New York City untraceable and as graphic as possible, using a form of bio-engineering to [[CruelAndUnusualDeath raise the victim's internal pressure to the point that their organs explode]]. When Catherine Powell tracks The Ripper down, The Ripper sends her into a coma. Throughout the game The Ripper’s [[HiddenVillain true identity is concealed]], frequently calling up the protagonist to boast. While one of the four possible identities of the Ripper ([[spoiler:Catherine]]) has a redeeming motive, the other three ([[spoiler:Detective Vince Magnotta (who's leading the investigation), Dr. Claire Burton, or hacker Joey Falconetti]]) have no excuse and seem to engage in these crimes simply [[ForTheEvulz for the fun of it]], claiming to have been "born to rip lives to shreds".

** Not only that, but at one point, Magnotta mentions that anything he gives Quinlan should be considered "Series/PenniesFromHeaven".
