MIDNIGHT. THE CARD TABLE… Sir Snips — a pair of living scissors in a top hat and monocle — tiptoes toward a sealed booster pack. “Heh heh… a fresh pack.”

UH-OH. Sir Snips lunges, blades wide open: SNIP! SNIP! The pack screams: “EEEEK!”

MEOW-POW! Rippy, the Pack Guardian, flies in paws-first: “NOT ON MY WATCH!” Sir Snips goes spinning: “YIPE!”

NEXT MORNING… B-Ray rips the pack open with The Ripper and holds up a holo: “PERFECT SEAM! KEEP IT MINT!” Rippy snoozes on the card box. Sir Snips sits in the corner, tied up with a rubber band. “grumble…”

Meet the cast

The Good Guys

RippyThe Pack Guardian

Clocks in when the lights go out and guards every pack on the card table. Fast paws, sharp ears, zero tolerance for scissors.

“Not on my watch!”

Dusty, the real cat behind Rippy, sitting on the backyard fence

DustyRippy’s secret identity

By day, a real house cat (yes, that’s really him) who knocks on doors at 6 AM and drinks out of the toilet. Nobody suspects a thing.

“Mrrrp?”

RIPPER v1PACKSAFETHERIPPER

Dad-RayFounder · Inventor of The Ripper

Started PackSafe and invented The Ripper so nobody has to sweat opening a pack again. Also rescued an 8-week-old kitten off a four-lane road on the way to the card shop. (That kitten? Dusty.) B-Ray’s dad and head of Rip Crew HQ.

“Rip more. Worry less.”

GUS

GusOwner, Gus’s Card Corner

Runs the local card shop and Friday night league. Keeps a “Wall of Shame” of snipped and bent cards behind the register as a warning.

“No scissors at my counter.”

The Rip Crew

B

B-RayRip Crew captain · The Perfectionist

Every card sleeved, sorted and in its exact spot. Touch his binder at your own risk. Knows every card’s name and exactly what it does, and nobody rips a cleaner seam with The Ripper. His motto? Sound familiar…

“Keep it mint!”

JojoAge 7 · The Rookie

Used to open packs with her teeth. Now she’s The Ripper’s biggest fan. Ranks every card by one stat: how shiny is it?

“Is it SHINY?!”

SET LIST

Priya “The Professor”Age 12 · The Brains

Knows every set list, every pull rate and every card number by heart. Her binder weighs more than Rippy does.

“Statistically… that’s a rare.”

#1

Coach KyleFamily friend · Rip-night regular

Always “just stopping by,” and always stays until the very last pack. Calls every pull like a play-by-play announcer at the championship game.

“One more pack. Then I’m leaving.”

The Ruin Crew

Sir SnipsVillain-in-chief · Cuts

A pair of living scissors in a top hat and monocle. Dreams of a world where every corner is snipped.

“Snip snip, old sport!”

Dog-EarHenchpup · Bends

A scruffy pup who can’t stop folding corners. One of his ears is permanently bent, and he wants your cards to match.

“Fold it! Fold it!”

SmudgeGrease goblin · Smears

A walking puddle of pizza grease who just has to touch every holo. Leaves fingerprints wherever he goes.

“Ooh, shiny! Lemme hold it!”
