The most badass female action hero ever. She survived the first film, came back in the second and beat the shit out of the aliens and had a mecha-suit battle with the Queen Alien. Died in third film, and was cloned in the fourth (which sucked).

Ripley is usually seem very quiet or open up to people much because they are too busy caring for and worrying about other people and doesn't want to bother them with her own problems. If you know a Ripley, you can use her shoulder to cry on no matter what but make sure every now and then you give her a well needed shoulder as well.
whats wrong with Ripley?
I don't know, i cried to her last night about my boyfriend breaking up with me but she wouldn't tell me what she was sad about.
