Ripp Grunt

Ripp Grunt (later known as Corporal Ripp Grunt) is the second son of General Buzz Grunt and the deceased Lyla Grunt and is the brother of Tank Grunt and Buck Grunt. He works part-time in the Slacker career track, as a Gas Station Attendant.

Unlike General Buzz and Tank, Ripp does not have an interest in the military. He does not get along well with his older brother or his father, though he is friends with Buck when the game starts. He is friends with Ophelia Nigmos and has a high relationship with Johnny Smith, though they are not friends at the start of the game. He doesn't have any romances but players often pair him with Ophelia Nigmos, despite her being girlfriend of Johnny Smith.If you make him have a child with a Sim you made yourself, there is a high chance they will have blond hair, because Ripp carries a blond hair gene (probably from his mother Lyla, who was a blonde), regardless if the mother of his child has a dominant hair color (brown or black).

Ripp also has a unique personality and astrological difference. Ripp has high nice, playful and outgoing personalities, which match to a Libra Sim, but Ripp's astrological sign is Sagittarius. This is probably just a mistake made by a developer.

There is usually a high chance that Ophelia and Ripp, when they're not selectable, will flirt if Johnny ages to adult or young adult before them.

He also was taught all his toddler skills by Lyla, but grew up badly, probably because bad things happened after he learned his toddler skills.

He is also featured in The Sims 2 (PSP), and he is an adult. Evidently, his relationship with Tank has gotten worse since The Sims 2. Ripp is the vendor for the Division 47. Strangely, in The Sims 2, Ripp has brown hair, but in the PSP version, he has black hair.

Ripp's secret's from The Sims 2 (PSP):


 * 1) (Personal): Ripp always loves to look at the stars... until he walks into a lamppost.
 * 2) (Intimate): Ripp lost much of his body hair in an experimental blow-dryer incident.
 * 3) (Dark): Ripp's debilitating fear of toilets was caused by one too many swirlies as a child.
