Rift

Rift is the main villain in the Moon Snail Literary Universe.

Personality
Rift is a misanthropic and omnicidal gryphon with very little interest in mercy. Rift takes joy in terrorizing and mocking those who he considers lesser, and isn't above taunting a victim before ending their life.

Rift is largely independant, and rarely ever accepts help from others. However, if he sees an opportunity to hijack a cooperative plan for his own benefit, he may agree to join forces with someone just to double-cross them when he gets the chance. He usually takes the opportunity if his partner fails him, and he'll likely torment them and commit cruel acts just to get back at them for disappointing him.

Despite how dangerous Rift may be, he can often find himself in embarrassing scenarios that discredit his true danger, and some of his actions can be considered just petty rather than terrifying, such as taking over a theme park out of spite. In spite of this, he is a legitimate threat who should be taken seriously.

Appearance
Rift is a 30-foot tall purple Gryphon with purple highlights and lavender arms. He has dark red claws and eyes and very long wings.

Relationships
By default, Rift hates everyone with no exceptions. There are, however, a few notable people he has unique opinions on outside of "worthless lower being".

Moon Snail
Out of everyone in the multiverse, Rift hates Moon Snail more than anyone else. Ever since Crossover Park, he has wanted him in particular dead, In the beginning of Ms & Flametail: Superstar Saga, he attacks him and Flametail for revenge for what happened in that game. He only joined his side to stop Ecolo and Lemongrab, who he hated out of a hunch.

Count Venamus
Rift allied with Venamus in MS & Soren: An Unexpected Alliance solely to get back at Moon Snail for what happened in MS & Flametail: Superstar Saga. He still thought lowly of him, but initially thought that their partnership was actually serving him well, until the very end. When Venamus failed to defeat Moon Snail and Soren, he ditched Venamus and took everything he had from him, including his children just to spite him.

Ecolo and Lemongrab
From his very first sighting of them, Rift was disgusted by the existence of Ecolo and Lemongrab, and went as far as to team up with Moon Snail just to stop them. His hatred grew even more when the duo gave him amnesia, being fully aware of this when he recovered.

Minkru, Ukor, and Struls
During his and Venamus' plans in Unexpected Alliance, Rift found the children incredibly annoying, especially Minkru. While the kids didn't understand his hatred at first, he kidnapped them near the end of the game and threatened to kill them, scaring them immensely.
