Anna Ripley

Dr. Anna Ripley was a loyal follower of the Briarwoods. Percy attempted to kill Dr. Ripley in Stillbend but was captured by her guards. She is experimenting with firearms and lost a hand during one of her experiments.

Dr. Ripley questioned and tortured Percy after the Briarwoods seized control of Whitestone.

Fascination with Percy
Ripley has a fascination with Percy's construction of his own pepperbox. While investigating her room at Castle Whitestone, Percy found many sketches of it drawn from eye witness accounts.

She designed her own firearm, similar to Percy's pepperbox but more refined. It has only one barrel and a small, rotating, four-part chamber.

Work for the Briarwoods
She was working for the Briarwoods to create an acidic compound that would dissolve the white stone that Whitestone is named for and distil it into pure residuum, a very powerful magical essence used in constructions like the Ziggurat.

When her work was completed she tried to leave, but the Briarwoods threw her in the dungeon. Vox Machina finds her and begrudgingly lets her out of her cell. She escaped Castle Whitestone when Vox Machina were fighting Professor Anders.
