~ One of Pip's lines upon starting a match |
Pip, also known by his title of The Rogue Alchemist, is a playable antagonist in Paladins. A dangerous and unpredictable vulpin thief, though his allies find him useful, they know full well he isn't to be relied on.
He's a Support champion that was introduced on November 17th, 2015.
He is voiced by Lucien Dodge.
Official Bio[]
"Unlike most other vulpin, Pip chose to specialize in weaponized explosives instead of curative alchemy. He left Brightmarsh, his homeland, in search of adventure across the Realm.
Now, he splits his time between brewing up all sorts of fiery concoctions to use against the Magistrate's forces and creating restorative potions to aid his friends. While his allies have come to appreciate his assistance and expertise, they fully understand that the little fox is as unpredictable as his dangerous mixtures."
Biography[]
While most vulpin are pacifists that specialize in curative potions, Pip instead chose to focus on weaponized explosives. He would eventually leave his home in search of adventure, stealing from various individauls, fighting the Magistrate, and assisting the Resistance in their battles as well.
At some point, one of Pip's experiments would go wrong, creating a portal to another dimension and allowing for one of its inhabitants, a blue vulpin named Pepper, to enter the Realm.
Following Yagorath's release and subsequent rampage, Pip and Pepper, alongside Moji, would end up being chased by the monster, though what occured to Pip, Pepper, and Moji following this is currently unknown.
Personality[]
Pip spends most of his time focusing on his thievery, constantly thinking about what he can steal, or could be stealing otherwise, as well as pondering the value of various items he comes into contact with.
Coupled with this, Pip is rather smug, passively praising himself rather commonly.
Powers and Abilities[]
With the alchemic skill of most vulpins, coupled with Pip's very "un-pacifistic" nature, with even an experiment gone wrong opening a portal to another dimension, Pip's various concoctions can apply a number of different effects to his enemies.
Gameplay[]
