Ralph is a giant wolf monster featured in the 2018 New Line Cinema film Rampage. He is based on the character of the same name from Midway's Rampage video games.
Design
Ralph is a colossal wolf with gray fur over most of his body and white fur on his face. As part of his mutation, Ralph has developed porcupine-like quills on his back, as well as fleshy membranes located between his fore and hind limbs that allow him to glide through the air.
Origins
Ralph was a gray wolf living in Wyoming, where he smelled a canister containing Energyne's "Project Rampage" pathogen after it fell to Earth following the explosion of the Athena-1 satellite. The pathogen modified Ralph's genome, drastically increasing his size, strength, and aggression, while also causing him to develop the physical characteristics of other species. In a short span of time, Ralph went from a normal wolf to a giant monster over 26 meters in length.
History
Rampage
After the Athena-1 satellite exploded in Earth's atmosphere, one of the capsules containing Energyne's experimental "Project Rampage" pathogen crashed into the midst of a pack of wolves in Wyoming. One of the wolves became curious and sniffed the leaking canister, causing the pathogen to take effect and begin editing his genome with weaponized DNA. The wolf quickly began to grow and become more aggressive, eventually slaughtering his entire pack. Learning one of the canisters landed in Wyoming, Energyne dispatched a mercenary team led by Burke to recover samples, but the wolf, nicknamed Ralph, easily killed the entire squad.
Abilities
Durability
Ralph is highly resistant to conventional weaponry, shrugging off direct RPG blasts
Agility
Ralph is highly maneuverable, able to quickly run around opponents and scale buildings with ease.
Gliding Flight
Much like Varan, Ralph extends membranes between his legs in order to glide.
Quills
Ralph has large quills on his back and tail which he can use as projectiles to impale opponents.
Weaknesses
Ralph, while durable against military equipment, was vulnerable to attacks by other monsters, easily being killed when Lizzie gets a good grip on his head.
In Other Languages
- Japanese: ラルフ (Rarufu)
Trivia
- In the video game series, Ralph was bipedal and walked like a human rather than on all fours like a real wolf. His fur was gray in the original Rampage video game, while subsequent games portrayed it as blue. The also film changes Ralph's origin to a wolf mutated by a genetic experiment, rather than a human mutated into a giant wolf by the experiments of Scum Labs.
- The spikes on his back and tail, as well as his ability to glide like a flying squirrel, seems to be an homage to Varan.
