Biography

Ribrianne commands Kakunsa and Rozie as leader of the Maiden Squadron. She transforms from a beautiful girl into a chubby warrior, and attacks recklessly.

Tournament of Power

Brianne de Chateau attends an event to be chosen as a Universe 2 idol warrior for the Tournament of Power. She cuts to the front of the line, and two ladies with masculine traits (chin stubble, low voices) who are at the front of the line think that Brianne has mistaken this event for a regular idol audition. They inform her that this is an audition for a martial arts tournament.

Offended by their rudeness, Brianne informs them that she is stronger than they are. She calls out, "Formation!" and begins her transformation, chanting: "Burian. Burian. Buri-buri-an!" Each part of her body grows larger until she has fully transformed into Ribrianne. She tells the rude ladies it is time for their punishment, and proceeds to attack them with a Pretty Cannon. They hug each other in fear, but the attack hits them, and they appear to be obliterated. (They are seen later, watching the Tournament of Power on a telecast and noticeably injured.) Ribrianne tells the children watching not to try this at home. The Omni-Kings, watching through a crystal ball, are very impressed with her, and the Great Priest tells him they should pay attention to the strong women in each universe, too.

Brianne is next seen when the Great Priest transports the Universe 2 team to the World of Void. When the tournament begins, Narirama of Universe 3 goes into his Super Survival Mode and knocks Brianne and the other members of the Maiden Squadron flying. Helles is offended; it is not beautiful to attack the maidens before they transform. After this, Brianne lays low and is seen only briefly, while Kale is on her berserker rampage, before Kale and Caulifla team up with Universe 7 warriors to eliminate half of the Pride Troopers of Universe 11. Brianne observes their fight, and when it is finished, she decides it is time for the Maiden Squadron to transform.

Name

Ribrianne's name is likely derived from Chateaubriand (シャトーブリアン) steak, a French dish made with a thick cut of beef tenderloin filet. The character name is a rearrangement of the katakana used to write "Chateaubriand" in Japanese, with the inclusion of the French word "de", meaning "of" or "from". The steak dish is named for François-René de Chateaubriand, whose surname comes from the French town of the same name. The addition of the "ri" syllable to the beginning of her warrior name adds "rib" (リブ/ribu) to her name pun.

Performance

Ribrianne is voiced by Rina Kitagawa in her first credited role for the franchise. In the FUNimation dub, Ribrianne is voiced by Veronica Taylor, who also voices Beriblu in Dragon Ball Super: Broly.
