This collection is part on my ongoing effort to consolidate all descriptions of
Percy’s guns. This is a collection of the initial information, stated in the
episodes, about Animus.

1. (Ep69) Initial description of
Animus
[Vex is inspecting Ripley’s body.]
0:17:29 Matt: “You
also find what appears to be a small leather case, a long, thin case about that
long,” he gestures about 18 in. or 46 cm. long, “that is latched up.
And her gun, which is similar to Percy’s pepperbox, but thinner, longer,” he
gestures about 18 in. or 46 cm. long, “more refined, it’s a deep gunmetal
grey color with brass sections, and what appear to be portions of whitestone
built into it. As she pulls the gun out, you,” he points to Vax, “immediate
know that’s the source of the fiendish energy.
…
0:22:28 Matt: “You
also do notice, Vex, on the gun, it has across the handle, the bottom of the
handle, the name of the weapon, which is named ‘Animus.’”
0:22:42 Laura:
“Animus?”
0:22:43 Matt:
“And across the barrels, you now see there are three empty barrels, and
three that still have names.”
0:22: Laura:
“Can I read the names?”
0:22:50 Matt:
“The names are Richter Wells, Oz Grud, and King Bertrand Dwendell.”
…
23:07 Matt:
“Apparently, all people that Ripley, in some way, shape, or form, felt
vengeful towards.”
0:23:13
2. (Ep69) Orthax banished from
Animus
[After Greater Restoration was used on Animus to banish
Orthax and allow Percy to be resurrected.]
1:09:05 Matt: “The spell finishes. The gun
itself, you guys see a flash of shadow around it dulls.”
1:09:10 Keyleth:
“Pike! Go!”
1:09:11 Matt:
“All the names on the side vanish as well. The barrels are now
clean.”
1:09:15
3. (Ep70) Percy attunes Animus
3:01:29 Taliesin:
“I’m going to attune… Oh, Animus. I’m going to attune Animus and drop the
gloves of missile snaring for this fight.”
3:01:36 Liam:
“Free wet willies.”
3:01:37 Taliesin:
“Wow.”
3:01:38 Matt:
“As you attune the weapon, there’s a brief, familiar, dark glow on the
weapon, and all the three names that exist on the barrel, all dissipate. It’s
now a clean barrel.”
3:01:56 Percy:
“Hmm.”
3:01:95 Laura:
“Oh no.”
3:02:01 Percy,
examining it: “Well, alright. I’ll have to have a talk about that.”
3:02:06
[Since the names vanished in Ep69 at 0:09:11, this is either an
error, a way of making sure Percy knows Orthax was in Animus, or a way of
showing that Orthax is still lurking around. Any of those is equally likely.]
