so, i was working on another chapter about how to write someone from our universe in the TVDU, and as i was getting to how you shouldn't make your OC a vampire (especially a ripper) so quick and better to save it for a big reveal
as i was getting down to the facts about rippers and what they should represent was when i realized that rippers should have their own chapter

now, i'm going to talk about the rippers we know of in the TVDU, the ones that worked, the ones that flopped, and when to bring one in your story
i won't be talking about the absolute shit about the 'ripper virus' that maxfield created in s5, like what? and i won't be mentioning kol as a possible ripper seeing as he wasn't bad at control, he just simply didn't want to, he caused those bloodbaths because of the anger and loss of his witch side, when davina brought him back and he was having trouble with blood that was all due to the bonehead dickwad ancestors control over him
the whole ripper notion obviously came from Stefan (though he definitely isn't the first, just the one who originated the name whether in his own words or by his actions),

the thing about the whole ripper notion is that it is clearly a metaphor for addiction. we see it in stefan, as he starts off clean in S1 then falls down the wagon near the end when elena gives him her blood to save his life. afterwards his actions are clearly one from an addict jonesing. (in the episode of s1 where he gets really drunk at a party and almost eats matt's mom after she was bleeding, he was trying to keep it under-wraps by drinking all day. fast-forward to the 1912 ep of s3 where he's hanging out with damon and rebekah talking about 1912 murders at the grill, and damon often talks about stefan tapping his ring and leg bouncing and other jonesing habits he's been displaying all evening)
