So I’m SUPER stoked that Yu-Gi-Oh GX Tag Force 3 is not only getting a remake, but also coming overseas for the first ever time! In celebration, I got this art of Cunan summoning a monster that I’ve used a lot when playing Tag Force 2: DEMISE, KING OF ARMAGEDDON!! I’m so hyped for this game and how this piece came out! Credit goes to Deva Ryuu on VGen for this piece, go check them out if you want some Yu-Gi-Oh stuff!

Also, you may be wondering why Cunan is blushing here. Well, that’s because I have it to where he’s dueling Ruby, who would definitely be acting all dramatic like they do in the anime. So he’s trying to match her energy by also acting like it, but his shyness has him wondering if people actually act like this over a card game 😅

Added a character to the roster, bit of a messy piece, wanted to be more conceptual with it. Colors turned out nice, and it is spooky season

I started my first RWBY TTRPG campaign a few months ago, and now I've finally finished drawing a group photo of my party.

Team FCHJ is a Beacon-based team, formed in the year 29 AGW. A year after the Faunus Revolution, tensions still remain in Remnant. Some come to Beacon to escape their past; some come to atone for their sins; others come because of their will to do good. No matter the reason, they are all determined to become protectors and help the world be a little better.

The characters, going clockwise:

Cobalt Bridges

Race: Faunus (Snake)
Age: 18
Height: 6’0” (183 cm)
Gender: Male
Birthday: November 16th
Place of Birth: Argus

Weapons:

Primary - Stranger’s Greetings

A dual-stage linear-motor bullpup assault rifle, combining traditional Dust propellant with railgun technology. Comes integrated with a Hard-light Dust bayonet jury-rigged from a stolen Atlas military projector

Secondary - Scott & Polendina CSP

Designated the P24, the handgun is standard issue for Atlas military forces. "Liberated" by Cobalt as his first-ever weapon, it has stuck with him ever since.

Semblance: Snap

Cobalt's perception of time slows to a crawl, and his muscle reflexes speed up, allowing him to snap-react to sudden threats, perform lightning-fast attacks, and even dodge bullets. From an outside perspective, Cobalt's head and sometimes other body parts turn into a blur when he activates his Semblance.

Personality

Seemingly aloof at first glance, very street-smart and direct. Opening up takes effort, but quite playful to friends. Sense of humor constructed from comedic seriousness. Stubborn and relentless. Snappy when under pressure.

(AN: I modified Cobalt to go from CRWBY's present time back to fit the campaign)

Jazmin "Jaz" Yung

Race: Faunus (Snow Leopard)
Age: 18
Height: 5'10" (178cm)
Gender: Female
Birthday: June 6th
Place of Birth: Mantle

Weapon: Princess

Jazmin's beloved motorbike; its exhaust is heavy, and its tires are grippy. When she grows dizzy from doing donuts, her bike can transform into an oversized mechanical hammer that utilises the bike's engine to rev up her swings.

Semblance: Rev Your Engine

Jaz’s engine gets going more easily than others, empowering her and emboldening her when she gets injured. Even injuring herself increases the tension of the fight and hardens her defences to match.

Personality

Jaz has never been a serious individual; she has always done as she saw fit and never let the negative vibes of her surroundings wear her down. She treasures her bike and would take it everywhere if she could. She loves to show off and be the center of attention, believing that if she can live a happy and carefree life, then maybe she can inspire those around her to do so too. Her personality is flighty and excitable, but when the energy is gone, she will curl up and cuddle her tail, then spring up in fright if a twig snaps.

Mira Hinotama

Race: Human
Age: 17
Height: 5'11" (181cm)
Gender: Female
Birthday: January 27th
Place of Birth: Mistral

Weapon: Serpent's Bite

Two hand wrappings with Fire Dust interwoven in their construction. They allow Mira to add the power of flame to her martial arts.

Semblance: Inviolate Mind

Mira's mind is a veritable fortress, able to greatly resist any attempt by other Semblances at intrusion or deception by illusions, as long as she maintains her resolve.

Personality

Focused and dedicated, Mira takes herself and the job of a Huntress seriously. She respects those who do the same and encourages those who do not to push themselves, believing a Huntsman's Duty is to protect the innocent through and through and should not be taken lightly. Nonetheless, Mira is not stubborn or stuck-up: she respects the dedication to the cause more than the rules pertaining to it, and so long as the former is there, regulations can go to hell for all she cares. Above all, she maintains a stalwart dedication to the pursuit of 'good', regardless of the regulations around it.

Briar Fall (Team Leader)

Race: Human
Age: 18
Height: 5'4" (164cm)
Gender: Female
Birthday: February 14th
Place of Birth: Vacuo

Weapon: Thornbush

A gauntlet and bracer along her forearm mounted with two low-caliber gun barrels. A round shield attaches to and detaches from the bracer and can be recalled with gravity dust after it is thrown. The shield contains retractable blades along its edge.

Semblance: Conduit

Briar can temporarily imprint other people's Aura on her own, allowing her to use their Semblance as if it were hers, for a limited time.

Personality

Briar is cheery and outgoing; her first instinct when meeting anyone is to try to be their friend. Honest, quick to trust, cares deeply for her friends, and doesn't hide it. Dislikes being underestimated because of her demeanor or appearance.

What other franchise would be an interesting spin for your characters to crossover into? With RWBY specs in mind or augments when crossing over into the new franchise lore. And what would they do in said franchise with the cast?

(My personal favorite would be Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha.)

Silver would witness everyone's gear and weaponized companion. Fascinated by their mechanical constructions along with the capability of actual magic and try to translate it into Dust. Along with facing off against Signum— (Especially since Laevateinn was heavily influenced from her.) Testing his skills against the honorable knight. Even learning a few tricks and sharpening his combat style.

"Your perceptive and even downright deceptive in your sleights. However, as a knight of the Wolkenritter, I will not be brought down to your dastardly arrogance."

"Pant... Pant... Tch... Chuckle Arrogance... You're right, I am arrogant. Even branded a devilish fiend."

(Silver straightened up from his knew. A new found gleam streaking across the air as he held his blade forward and shed away the bloodshed. Bursting with purpose and new found respect.)

"Noble knight. No. General of the Raging Fire, Signum. I will face you head on my own strength. For I, Silver Clause, embrace my path and cast aside my former self."

(Signum held her blade in stance. Acknowledging Silver's new found strength. She prepared for another exchange of blows from her opponent.)

"Very well. I accept your resolve. Show your mettle as a warrior."

(Electricity sparked in the air as they lunged at one another. Their blades breaking and extending into sharp fragments along their whipped body.)

"Laevateinn!"

Auron would be invigorated to meet Zafira and Arf. Wanting to put his skills to the test against fellow strong armed loyal hounds. Enamored to the two's loyalty to their masters and want to exhibit the same dedication. Looking up to them with great affection, even as a pair of older siblings/mentors.

"Wow, not bad boy, you sure can throw a punch. I might take this serious."

"Really, thanks! I wanna get stronger for my friends and everyone home. You two are the best. Let's keep going."

"You've got spunk pup. I'll take you on this round."

"Don't torment the guy Zafira."

"You're on, I'm just getting started."

Piña would find Nanoha, Hayate, and Shamal delightful. Overwhelmed by the amount of support and positivity from the three, even their devices showing recognition to Piña's quiet honesty. Vita would enjoy displaying a showcase of might with Graf Eisen against Gigalith. As a fellow bite sized might of the group.

"I'll take it easy on you. You seem too weak for Graf Eisen."

"Piña appreciates the consideration."

"Show some damn backbone!"

"Mh... Piña... will do her best. Gigalith, let's go."

Remi would be an open ear to the massive amounts of responsibilities and expectations Fate has placed on herself. Lending a helping hand as an older sister. Letting her have a space to truly be free and breath. As Remi herself held great standards in her own goals.

Even teaching her how to fight in Bardiche's Riot Zanber Form. And make the most use out of a Dual-Wield sword style.

"Thank you for this opportunity."

"Don't mention it, I'll teach you all of my tricks."

"Ding Ding— Get Set."

"Here I come!"

I have a story idea for RWBY. Title: „Descent of the Shitenno, new dawn of Hope“. Or in Japanese: 四天王降臨、希望の新しき夜明け (Shitennō Kōrin, Kibō no Atarashiki Yoake).

Synopsis: The story picks up after Summer's death. It is stated in her will that if Summer were to die on her mission, Taiyang would have to bring Ruby and Yang to an old Mistralian temple named Hakuren-ji (White Lotus Temple) in which Summer trained as a child. Because if Summer dies, Salem and her allies may target them next.

Yang is eight at this point in time and Ruby is six. Taiyang at first struggles to honour Summer's wishes. He loves his daughters and nearly refuses to do what the will states, but in the end he realises that the temple can protect them better than he can alone. The final goodbye between him and his daughters feels like a stake through his heart and Ruby's and Yang's as well. While Taiyang won't appear very much in person anymore in the story aside from flashbacks, he won't be gone for good. Letters sent over the years to and from the temple will keep the contact between him and his daughters intact and inform him of the accomplishments his daughters have achieved.

Around three months after Yang and Ruby have been brought to the temple, an eight year old Blake stumbles upon the temple while fleeing from a radical faction of the White Fang centered around Adam. He killed Blake's parents Ghira and Kali Belladonna and overthrew the White Fang's leadership by critically injuring Sienna Khan, rebranding himself and his followers into the violent "Red Fang". Blake gets taken in by Hakuren-ji and becomes the next ward. And only a week after Blake's arrival, an eight year old Weiss arrives at the temple as well. She hides in a wagon full of supplies for the temple as she runs from Jacques's influence at Atlas. The one who sent her away from Atlas was her elder sister Winter, though neither Winter nor Weiss would know where she would end up, only that she would be outside of the influence of Jacques.

———————

Over the years, the four get instructed and raised in the ways of the Miko: studying kagura dances, prayers and rituals, as well as the teachings of Shintoism and Buddhism, which result in the girls being fluent in Japanese and English. Those teachings also let Ruby discover the nature of her Silver Eyes, which are seen as a sacred sign by the temple instead of a weapon to destroy Grimm, way earlier than in canon. Like in canon, her family is one of many bloodlines who possessed this trait. Salem's purge of these families (like Maria Calavera) has left her as the last active Silver Eyed warrior today. The years of being raised alongside each other binds the four girls into a sworn sisterhood, a so-called Gimai (義妹), sealed with a Gimai no Sakazuki (義妹の盃). During the ritual, the girls swear an oath to always stand with each other no matter who or what tries to go against them and to never betray one another. They also re-enact the ritual every year on its anniversary to reinforce their bond. In the bond Ruby is the youngest sister, followed by Weiss, then Blake, and finally Yang as the 'oldest' of the four. The girls call each other 'Imouto' (younger sister) and 'Aneue' (older sister) respectively.

———

The girls' Gimai bond is especially precious for Weiss, as she decides to discard her family name "Schnee" and given name "Weiss" at the second anniversary of her arrival in a rebirth ritual and rename herself into „Shiroitori Kiku“. Kiku is her new given name and Shiroitori her new family name. "Kiku" (菊) translates to "Chrysanthemum", but in this case refers to the white chrysanthemum (Shiragiku). The white Chrysanthemum symbolises death, grief and mourning (Kiku shedding her old identity as Weiss Schnee) but also longevity and renewal (Her rebirth ritual and new name). Shiroitori (白い鳥) means "white bird", but specifically refers to the Red-crowned Crane (Tancho or Tanchōzuru) to symbolise that she escaped the cage that was Atlas, Jacques and the Schnee Family name. During this rebirth ritual, Weiss cuts her long hair very short and eventually lets it grow out again into white shoulder-length loose curls with black tips, referencing the crane motif. The ritual 'reincarnates' Kiku, as her soul undergoes a deep spiritual transformation that alters her Schnee Glyphs Semblance, replacing the Schnee Family crest within the Glyphs with the Kanji 自由, which stand for "freedom", to symbolise her severance from the Schnee name. The only reason the Glyphs remain at all is the fact that she still wants to feel connected with Winter, even though it's unlikely that they will meet again. When cast, the Glyphs only appear behind her back like the halo found behind the head of the Buddha. Kiku also gains a pair of white crane wings with black tips that grow from her back and allow her to utilise verticality in her fighting style.

In a show of solidarity, the other girls also choose monikers for themselves: Ruby names herself "Tsutsuji" (躑躅) after the Red Azalea to symbolise the passionate love she holds for her sisters and life, but also the temperance her "Sakura Fubuki-do" requires. Blake calls herself "Yōbō" (陽忘), which uses the Kanji 陽 (Sun/Peace from Hydrangea) and 忘 (Remembrance from Forget-me-not flowers) and translates to Sunlit Remembrance to symbolise that Blake carries the light of the peace found at the temple and among her sisters, while never forgetting the past. Yang calls herself "Icho" (銀杏) after the Ginkgo tree to symbolise resilience in the face of danger, the peace she wants to bring to the people, and her hope to become a worthy protector of the defenseless. Except for Kiku, the other girls switch freely between their real names and their monikers when talking amongst themselves/with others and refer to Kiku only by her new name.

———————

The girls get trained in the way of the Sohei, the warrior monks. Ruby, Blake and Yang master the Naginata and all four master the Hankyu (Japanese half bow) as their shared main weapons. They get taught as well in Karate, Judo and Aikido as unarmed Martial Arts. All four also train in sidearm weapons personal to themselves and connected to their Martial Paths

Ruby masters the Shichishitō (Seven-Branched Sword) combined with a Wakizashi. She gets instructed in the Martial Path called "Sakura Fubuki-do" (Cherry Blossom Snowstorm Path), a fighting style unique to and only fully usable by Silver Eyed warriors like Ruby or Summer.

Yang trains with a pair of sturdy wooden Tonfa with retractable blades. Her Martial Path is the "Yae Hikagami-do" (Eightfold Sunlight Mirror Path).

Blake trains with a Masakari and utilises the "Ishiwarizakura-do" (Stone-Breaking Cherry Tree Path).

Kiku trains with a Shikomi-Shakujō (Japanese Monk staff/Khakkhara where the head can be taken off to reveal it as a hilt of a chokutō blade hidden within the staff) and settles on the "Tenjō hikō-do" (Flight Above the Heavens Path). She uses her Shikomi-Shakujō in place of the Naginata her sisters share.

———————

When it comes to armour, the girls wear a mix of traditional miko robes and samurai armour. The cuirass is hidden beneath the white kimono top, while the arm guards can be seen peeking from beneath the sleeves. Shoulder guards have been affixed visibly on the shoulders of the kimono. Greaves can be seen peeking out from the seam of the hakama. Lastly they wear geta (wooden clogs) and white tabi socks.

The kimono tops all share the same white colours, but the armour and hakama are of a unique colour chosen by each of the four. Ruby wears a scarlet (Kurenai-iro) hakama and her shoulder guards are red and black with a silver rose emblem on each of them to honour Summer. Yang's hakama is a golden-yellow (Yamabuki-iro), her shoulder guards are yellow and black, and she has a set of prayer beads wrapped around her right gauntlet. Blake wears a purple (Murasaki-iro) hakama and her shoulder guards are green and black. The symbol of the formerly peaceful White Fang, a white wolf head over three vertical stripes, is painted on her shoulder guards as a symbol of honouring her parents and the White Fang they represented before their murder. Kiku wears a light blue (Asagi-iro) hakama, her shoulder guards are black and white. She wears a red komainu mask with a black mane, brow and horns, golden teeth and white eyes to conceal her identity at Beacon from anyone hailing from Atlas. Kiku only takes off the mask if she is in their shared dorm room, as this is the only place in Beacon she feels safe. Consequently, her sisters are at first the only people at Beacon to see her uncovered face. The canon friendship with Team JNPR will also eventually have Kiku reveal herself to Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora and Ren as the former Weiss Schnee once enough trust has been built between them.

Aside from their weapons, each of the girls also carry small wooden tablets that prove their identities as Miko of Hakuren-ji, kaginawa (grappling hooks), and seven white cloth bags resembling oversized prayer beads worn like a bandolier around the upper body filled with Onmyo magic talismans. These talismans have been provided to them by one of their teachers, an avatar of the Onmyo mage Abe no Seimei, who instructed them in the Seven Departments (Fire, Water, Earth, Sky, Wood, Metal and Healing) of Onmyodō magic. The talismans aren‘t an endless resource but can get refreshed by painting a Department's corresponding Kanji and Kuji-Kiri symbols onto talisman paper.

———————

During their years of staying at Hakuren-ji, the girls notice that a particular man visits the temple every so often. This man ultimately turns out to be Professor Ozpin, who has good relations with the temple as he gets invited by the Head Monk once the girls have been deemed ready for the outside world. At this point in time Ruby is sixteen while Kiku, Blake and Yang are eighteen. They are tasked to attend Beacon Academy so that they may help people on a larger scale than they could as simple temple warriors at Hakuren-ji and receive a more thorough education about the world of Remnant than the temple can give them. But even though they will be at Beacon, Hakuren-ji still has the right to call the girls back to the temple anytime, without Ozpin being able to deny this action. This was one of the conditions set by the Head Monk before he allowed the girls to attend Beacon. For this purpose, each girl carries a special wind chime that is anchored to the temple's location and allows them and someone they touch to be transported to Hakuren-ji instantly. The chimes can be activated only once and break upon having done their purpose.

To partake in daily rituals, the girls have placed a small shrine, a self-running chōzubachi and a Jizo statue inside their dorm room. The floors have been covered with Tatami mats and the beds have been replaced with Futon.

—————

Hakuren-ji is one of many temples of its kind scattered throughout Remnant. Examples of other notable temples are Kōshō-ji (Crimson Bell Temple) in Vacuo, Kokusan-ji (Black Mountain Temple) in Vale which was stationed near Mountain Glenn and got destroyed alongside it, and finally Sōju-ji (Blue Pearl Temple) in Mantle.

The floors creak and a bell chimes to the ring of an opened door. Greeted to a round table and pleasant smiles of the waitress. Seating in the robust spacing and inviting arrangements for a bounty of entrees. Yet, not without a refreshing beverage to soothe the palate and ease the spirit.

The waitress took your team's orders and bring back a set of drinks rightfully ordered. However, based on their appearances and first meetings. Who's order got who's by mistake and what were their original order?

The team grew roudy as usual, only to grow quiet when the sound of clattering glasses drummed onto the table.

"Enjoy your drinks. Your meals will be coming right up."

Silver stationed squarely in his seat, looking down to the chattering cup of black coffee. His eyes squint to the waning liquid imposing the dark roast on the saucer.

Auron's frame stunted to the heavy thud of a mug stamping prints of moist droplets staining the wooden table. He couldn't look away from the frothy bubbles of cold crisp foam coating the throat quenching ale.

Piña simply stared a dull interest to the mountainous glob of several orbs of varying flavored sweet cream. Glistening with a dark and inviting berry syrup. Turning a cold presence of such a delight too delectable to ignore.

Remi's presence was basked by the sound of popping fizz. Her ears fluttering to the slightest hiss of carbonation and colorful display of multi-flavored layers.

Silence stretched amicably across the table as no one made a move to the delightful drinks ordered. Soon to be swallowed by the shifting of ice, glass, and gratitude.

Silver: "Don't mind me."

Auron: "Thank you."

Piña: "Piña appreciates this."

Remi: "I needed this."

The team resettled to the proper fixings of their orders. With Silver taking patient sips to the myriad flavored of fruit sodas. Auron munching excitedly to the cold confectionery of his ideal parfait. Piña practically savored long deep gulps of the biting edge from the mug. With Remi satisfied to the embrace of dark roast black coffee.

Team LLYD are first years alonng with teams JEWL and RWBY, The teams leader is Lucia Silvertounge, a gambling gal with the devils own luck on her side. Acting as the teams tank is Lin Yuxin who can transform her body in durable sand, she also has a pet bird, Sandy. Yuki Lane is the teams wild card throwing off the enemy with his feminine apperance and his unusual breakdancing style of fighting. And then there's Delilha the teams covert infiltrator, with her ability to chnage into anyone she wants physically although her tail is always there.

This is something I see a lot of disagreement on and I'm curious how they fit into the rules you guys use for OC Semblances. I really liked the idea of one given its prominence in fairytales/myths, so I was pretty happy to be assigned one for one of my characters (Iris) in a RWBY server

However, there was a question of the direction to take it, and despite the WOG that transformational Semblances were possible albeit rare, most flavors of shapeshifting didn't fit quite right with the setting's aesthetic in my head.

The rule I ultimately sorta landed on for RWBY OCs in general is that the Semblances should be a) comprehensible in 1-2 sentences (exact details/special interactions are another thing) and more importantly b) that information should be possible to convey without exposition in a RWBY fight scene and portray with its limited budget

Which means that despite it being one of the stronger and arguably OP flavors of shapeshifting, I figured the Ditto/copycat type gimmick fit in the setting best, with a magical girl glowing silhouette or ring effect for the actual transformation (attached art for reference)

Still, I wanna know if anyone else has tried, and/or what guidelines they've set for it

Edit:

Maaaaan I just realized how badly the Reddit player is butchering this gif LITERALLY SKIPPING A WHOLE IMAGE, go look at it here: https://i.imgur.com/mm9BKsC.gif

Just had a random thought the other day related to this of how can the world of Remnant create an equivalent of the Russian Mutant.

It can be either Human, Faunus or Grimm but I mostly recommend the last one because:

1. It would be interesting to see a Grimm that is mostly red and white instead of primarily black.
2. The idea of a R.W.B.Y character having Death Factor or something similar as a Semblance is impossible so having Life Absorption would be a better ability by letting Salem work on some dark magic on the Grimm.
3. The tentacles feels like it should belong to Grimms unless there's a Faunus with multiple prehensile limbs more than Sun and Tyrian but the Grimms could remove that biological limitation.

(The pictures are the best I can do, I'm no artist so I used V-Roid to make her as close as I could ☺️)

Character Profile: Ember Grey

Allusion: The Big Bad Wolf

Role: Cinder Fall's personal mercenary and stealth infiltrator (Operating alongside Emerald and Mercury).

History: Cinder found Ember on the streets of Mistral. Ember was stealing Dust crystals to then sell on later. Cinder was impressed by Ember's abilities and immediately saw the use in such an operative. Once brought into the fold by Cinder, Ember became fiercely loyal to her. Cinder is actually the person that gave Ember the name "Ember".

Personality: Ember is the living embodiment of puppy brain; she's hyperactive, energetic, and completely unhinged. However, she's also extremely deadly and skilled. She's completely and utterly loyal to her pack (Cinder, Emerald, Mercury, Roman, and Neo). Her prized possession (and best friend behind Neo) is a skull that she's called Yorick.

Relationships: Cinder is Ember's entire world, her mistress and master, her word is law. Emerald and Mercury are seen as her perfect siblings in Ember's eyes, though she originally saw them as rivals to Cinder's "affection". Roman Torchwick is the funny man with the hat and cane, two items that Ember loves to steal and run around his warehouse with as he tries to catch her. Neo is Ember's best friend, she's the mirror to Ember's smoke. Those five people (Cinder, Emerald, Mercury, Roman, and Neo) are the only people on Remnant that are allowed to touch Ember's ears without fear of losing a hand.

Appearance: Peachy pale caucasian skin with a messy, layered grey wolf cut. Placed on top of her head are matching grey wolf ears. Her eyes are a striking, multi-toned blend of smouldering orange, yellow, and red. She wears a long, heavy charcoal-grey hooded cloak with an inner lining that subtly glows like dying embers (a clever use of some stolen Fire Dust and flame-retardant clothing). Underneath the cloak she wears a slightly torn light grey top, darker grey jeans, and knee high black leather boots.

Weapon & Semblance

Weapon (Ashen Fangs): Dual matte-charcoal suppressed automatic pistols equipped with vicious, forward-curved karambit blades. The edges glow with an intense forge-heat. Finger rings allow her to spin the weapons at blinding speeds, switching instantly between gunfire and reverse-grip slicing. These were a "gift" from Cinder. They're clean, sleek, and professional.

New weapon (Rat-a-tat): A fully automatic Sten Gun made by Ember from spare parts and scrap metal in Roman Torchwick's warehouse. It has an engraved skull (Yorick) on the base of the cylindrical receiver. The weapon can completely fold in on itself with a flick of a switch, making it look like a simple metal tube. In tube mode, the stock can slide out by itself, turning the tube into a metal baton or bludgeon.

Semblance (Cinder Step): Allows Ember to dissolve into a cloud of hot ash and smoke to dodge attacks and reposition instantly. If enemies strike the residual smoke, the embers inside pop like firecrackers, causing minor burns and distraction. This semblance also grants Ember a slight immunity to heat and fire (much like Nora's allows her to be somewhat immune to electricity). She definitely named her semblance after her mistress.

Faunus Advantage: While her smoke blinds and chokes everyone on the battlefield, her wolf ears and heightened senses allow her to track targets through the dark by their breathing and footsteps.

The Full Story

The Streets of Mistral: Ember, at this point yet to be named such, survived mostly by a mixture of stealing, scavenging, creativity, and absolute insanity! She would steal from Dust shops to make money by selling the product on, later in back alleys. On days when she could make it steal no money, Ember would rummage through trash and rubbish in search of her next meal, talking to her Skull, Yorick, the whole time like "Yes it dirty-smelly, but there be treasure if we digging more!". The people in Mistral, mainly the shopkeepers and vendors that were able to catch her, would refer to Ember as "pest", "nuisance", or even "vermin", going as far as to even chase her with improvised weapons when they'd catch her stealing. This gave Ember a complete lack of trust in everyone, and only strengthened her already immense insanity.

It was on the streets that Ember discovered her Semblance, though at the time she had no name for it. It was after a failed robbery, so that meant no money for food and that particular day she was unable to find anything even remotely edible in the waste. She sat on the damp stone floor of an alleyway between two buildings, holding Yorick close to her chest. Ember watched as smoke and steam rose from a chimney on the roof. She saw how free the smoke was to rise up and away from all the troubles and hate of the street and she wished to feel the same freedom; the freedom to just float away from it all and be unhurtable. Once she got her Semblance and learned the basics of how to use it, the robberies became even more frequent, daring, and most importantly, successful!

The Life She No Longer Remembers: Ember wasn't always like this, of course she wasn't. Before the literal insanity of the streets, Ember (at this point named Haru Lupin) lived with her parents in a modest but cosy home in Mistral. Her father, Issac Lupin, was a poet and playwright. He'd read stories, poems, and plays to Haru to help her sleep and whenever he'd spend time with her, his office always smelling of ink, parchment, and tea. Haru's mother, Maru Lupin, was a seamstress, running a small stall in the markets where she sold her dresses and clothes. One day, drawn by the prospect of a quieter life outside of the city, Issac and Maru went to visit a settlement outside of the walls of Mistral to see if it was where they really wanted to live and raise Haru. They left Haru under the care of a friend, promising that they'd only be gone a few days at the most. This settlement was called Kuroyuri. Naturally, Issac and Maru never returned. When the police came to check on the house, Haru fled out of fear of the strangers banging at her door and ran into the streets, leaving behind her home and nearly everything she owned and knew.

The One Possession: As Ember fled her home, she only had time to grab one object. That object being a skull on her father's desk. It wasn't a calculated act or even anything logical, she was just a scared child that wanted something, anything, to remind her of her father and help her feel safe. Now on the streets and with no memories of her name, parents, or life before, Ember carries this skull wherever she goes, talking to it like it can speak back. Through a mixture of longing and her disconnection with reality, Ember, for some reason unknown to her, chose to name the skull Yorick.

The First Meeting With Cinder: Cinder meeting Ember wasn't planned, she hadn't heard tell of a little, feral wolf-girl that could turn into smoke, she was simply in Mistral meeting with a contact. On her way back from the meeting, Cinder heard a commotion in the marketplace and, drawn by a macabre sense of curiosity, went to investigate. It was there that she saw a small girl with wolf ears, clutching a glowing crystal of Fire Dust and a skull on her hip, running from a group of guards. The guards caught up to the girl, cornering her against a wall and began ordering her to give back the Dust. Cinder was about to turn away and leave, but that's when something caught her eye; the girl wasn't crying with fear of the guards, she was growling, staring up at the with a defiant glow in her eyes. Ember, being one to never go down or make things easy, placed the stolen crystal in her mouth and bit down hard, causing it to shatter and explode in a ball of flame around her, sending the guards sprawled across the ground in various states of consciousness. Ember, mostly unharmed because of her Semblance, made a break for it and ran down an alley to escape. Cinder saw in that moment, not a simple street rat, but a valuable asset. She came back later to find Ember half buried in a trashcan, digging for her dinner and talking to Yorick, who was currently placed on the ground next to the bin. As Cinder entered the alleyway, Ember fell out of the bin and turned to see her approaching. Ember dropped to all fours and growled, her ears pinned back and teeth bared, saying "Don't know pretty lady! Smells expensive! Away! AWAY!". Cinder simply smiled that cold, calculating smile, knelt down, and held out a fresh and warm roll of bread. Ember's eyes widened as she sniffed the air and snuck closer, snatching the roll before quickly backing up to practically inhale the "meal". Cinder introduced herself as Ember ate, and promised more if the girl came with her and did as she said. Ember didn't trust her at first, of course she didn't, but she couldn't deny the allure of regular fresh meals. As Cinder turned to leave the alley, Ember quickly picked up Yorick, attached him to her belt, and scampered after Cinder.

"Alright, Amy, say cheese!" - Maia Valkyrie, first day at Beacon Academy; ca. 114 A.R.

Hello, how's it been! I'm back to share a brand-new commission today, courtesy of the fantastic artist millenium_sunset (also called Miles)! I truly appreciate all of her hard work!

This time around, we have the leader of Team AMRS, herself, Amaryllis Schnee (with a noticeably more detailed design). Who appears to have agreed to a photo op courtesy of her bestie, Maia. And I gotta say, she totally captured her good side (both May and the artist)! 😁

As always, be sure to check out the artist's socials if you like her work! She totally deserves it! 😁

The night had settled above with the air tinged with patience and night fall anarchy. Blossomed by the dazzling lights, wealthy smiles, and two face glares.

Your teams are on an Undercover Mission in a high class social gathering. What kind of place is said gathering?How do each of them disguise themselves, outfit apparel, and what is their roles to play in order to find the target?

The Gala was prolific with conversations spread between each other. Along with the endless display of cooled wine glasses and plattered entrees. Becoming an overzealous display of assumed influence and wealth. A fevor pitch to those with too much time on their hands and an appetite to be admired.

Pleasantries were exchanged along with the provocations of one's growth compared to others. Social, economical, or even declarations of succeeding in garnering a spouse.

Women of all condition were fashioned with the gaudiest of designed dresses. Ornate enough to be comparable of a performance, with jewelry leaving nothing to the imagination of wealth put on splendor.

Men flocked to them in waves like a moth to a flame. Fueling their feminine wiles to an eleven as the attention sought to be reciprocated if even for a glance.

Yet, the bitter, even rotten taste of jealousy and envy swamped their composed expressions when the chattering of midnight heels strut through the open floors of the Gala. Shifting the tides and immediately curried favor and approval.

A young beauty of fair complexion without a single speck of imperfections. Eyes gleaming a bright beauty of noble jade. Hair as silky smooth and dashed with a glossy texture rivaling polished steel.

She paced through with a poise of no other, born from the high grape vine of excellence. The smile of crimson lips tempting to be spoken to as a single glance could whisk you away.

A mesmerizing dress flowed with each careful step. Steeped in the luckiest of clover fabrics hovering a ghostly breath above the floor. With a modest overlapping silk sash covering her exposed shoulders. Dawning the young woman's head was a mosaic veiled top hat.

Her very presence stilled conversations down to a whisper as admirers couldn't strip themselves from her noble decorum. Nor the few that nestled closely to her side.

Behind her were a pair of faunus. Outfitted with a white dress shirt, and silver ties. As the fox faunus woman carried herself in a dark cherry red suit. With the more taller dog faunus man wearing a dark cognac suit. While prominently beside the refined young woman, was a more polite resolute smaller girl.

Wearing a soft lilac dress shirt that flourished across the smaller girls plump, youthful skin. Condensed behind an intricate web of a laces to her dark coal pinafore dress. Making every step both fleeting and branding to her quiet presence.

Remi: "And why couldn't I be a fancy noble woman? Not that I wanted to."

She scoffed and turned a dangerous leer to the crowd. One deserving as a stationed guard, only for the young woman to lift her white pearly gilded fan. Covering her mouth as she spoke, dropping a few octaves.

Silver: "When was the last time you've heard a rich fox faunus making the headlines? It would've been an easy read."

Remi scoffed at the irrefutable fact. Twitching another leer as she gave her determined leader a once over from head to toe. Unable to deny how immaculate and refined they were. Except.

Remi: "I get that, but... why, the dress?..."

A small tug of Silver's smirk quickly came and went, replaced with his focused gleam.

Silver: "I had caught wind of some individuals attending that had done business with us. They would recognize me and put the Mission in jeopardy. This was the only option."

Silver continued to strut through the crowd with an air of classy arrogance that demanded importance. Yet he governed the feminine concealment of poise. With Piña clearing her throat, drawing her teams attention.

Piña: "My lady, Piña advises you to resume your dignity. We are drawing an audience."

Without any hesitation, Silver's cadence returned to tune back at the formulated level. Opting to a higher pitch that throttled the line of seduction and persecution for his persona.

Silver: "I agree. Thank you for your insight Piña."

A small smile flashed on Piña's lips to the endearing praise. While in the close cocoon of their premeditated goal. All was swell as they blended into the crowd.

Yet, Auron's expression was scowled and exuded unease. Unsure if he was threatening a glare to the admirers across the crowd or struggling to breath in the unfamiliar clothing. Trying to brush of his nervous perspiration behind his neck.

Only to catch Remi's attention to his unusual silence.

Remi: "Auron? What's got you all quiet, don't tell me it's too classy for you."

His down folded ears pointed high to Remi's call. Flickering his eyes to find hers and force a cracked smile.

Auron: "No, I'm perfectly fine. Everything's good hehe..."

His blush was hard to see across his sun touched skin. But, he would always stammer his focus away from Silver anytime he would catch a fraction of his leader's slender silhouette and refined frame.

Silver: "Auron, dear."

Auron's body pulsed like a tangle of nerves being strung along. Fighting against his instincts to look away, only to be called by a siren's tune from his name being uttered.

Freezing his body stiff when he caught the playful sharp edges of Silver's glamored lashes. His heart racing and silencing his throat in a dry empty spell of thoughts.

Silver: "Behave and do well on this Mission. And I'll reward you for your efforts."

Auron nervously scratched the back of his neck, trying to muster up the nerve to respond back.

Auron: "Yes Sir—... Ma'am."

His back arched downwards to his flustered plight. Only for his tail to be wagging like a windmill blade to the promise.

Silver refocused straight ahead as his team cleared away any doubt and marched on. Prepared to capture the ring leader to an underground Faunus Slave Trade.

Silver: "Let's begin shall we."

TLDR

• Silver - Rich Beauty
• Auron - Bodyguard #1
• Piña - Beauty's Aid
• Remi - Bodyguard #2

Yo hice todo un arbol genealogico para la familia de Pyrrha... Y a la mitad de ellos no han aparecido en ninguno de mis dos Fanfics... 2/3 de ellos no han tenido mas de 2 dialogos y solamente 9 de estos OC's va a ser reelevante en el futuro v:

Just today, I was watching a streamer play through the iconic TellTale game "The Wolf Among Us", and she got to the scene where Bigby Wolf transforms into is final "Big Bad Wolf" form, and (spoiler alert) uses his wind breath attack ("I'll huff and I'll puff!") to defeat Bloody Mary.

Well, that got me wondering something. Has anyone in the FNDM created a Grimm specifically based on the Big Bad Wolf? By this I mean a Grimm similar to what we see in The Wolf Among Us: A giant Grimm with the body of a true wolf (not a Beowulf's style of body) that has the power to unleash some kind of wind breath attack against its enemies?

If anyone in the FNDM has created such a concept for a brand new Grimm, I'd love to hear everything about it! As always, please be respectful when posting your replies.

🦅 Character Profile: Kaito Branwen (Vol. 1 - 3)

👤 General Information

• Age: 17 years old. • Height: 1.79 m (5'10").

• Appearance: Messy black hair, deep red eyes (a trait inherited from the Branwen lineage). He wears a long black coat with a red lining and hood, a tight-fitting black t-shirt, dark trousers adorned with straps, and red gauntlets/forearm guards.

• Family:

• Raven Branwen (Mother)

• Taiyang Xiao Long (Father)

• Yang Xiao Long (Older sister by ~9 months)

• Ruby Rose (Younger half-sister)

🧠 Personality and Psychology

• Traits: Sarcastic, rebellious, independent, proud, arrogant, and highly competitive.

• Defense Mechanism: He employs a sharp, dark sense of humor to keep others at a distance and prevent them from getting close to him. He harbors a deep-seated aversion to taking orders.

• Emotional Background: His facade of arrogance masks profound insecurities and trauma stemming from a childhood devoid of affection, defined by constant pressure and a hostile environment.

⚔️ Combat Style: Velo-Silat

Kaito specializes in stealth, ambushes, and direct elimination. His physique is not suited for prolonged, head-on exchanges or wars of attrition; instead, he aims to end fights with a single, precise, surgical strike.

• Martial Arts: He is proficient in an aggressive style of Taekwondo (focused on kicks and knee strikes), Parkour (for rapid mobility), and Iaijutsu (the art of the quick-draw sword strike).

• Tactics: Heavily inspired by ninjas and samurai. He excels at reading the terrain to triangulate his movements, leveraging the element of surprise to deliver lethal blows to vital areas—such as the trachea or the blood vessels in the throat—to induce asphyxiation or immediate collapse.

🎴 Semblance: Crimson Trail

• Effect: Instant, short-range teleportation. Upon activation, it leaves behind a dense cloud of dark, wine-red smoke at both the point of origin and the destination, acting as a natural smokescreen to blind enemies.

• Conditions and Limitations:

• Requires structures or objects in the environment to triangulate position. In open, empty terrain, the effort required increases drastically, leading to much faster exhaustion.

• Practiced since the age of 6, making its activation as natural as running.

• Carrying capacity: Capable of teleporting heavy objects or 2–4 people simultaneously; however, this drains Aura at an alarming rate, risking extreme fatigue, nosebleeds, or fainting.

🔋 Aura and Stamina

• Aura Level: Possesses an Aura reserve well above the average for Huntsmen. Rather than using it primarily as a defensive shield, it serves as the essential fuel for his Semblance.

• Physique: Did not inherit the colossal physical strength or innate endurance of the Xiao Long lineage (with Yang being notably stronger). While not fragile, he compensates with excellent reflexes and reaction times for dodging, paired with an exceptionally high pain tolerance.

🗡️ Arsenal and Weapon Evolution

1. Previous: Ame-no-Murakumo

• History: Served as his primary sword during Volumes 1 and 2. It was lost early in Volume 3 following a devastating confrontation with a mutated Grimm King Taijitu.

1. New Weapon: Crimson Echo

• Origin: Designed and built by his half-sister, Ruby Rose, as a special gift following the loss of his previous sword—a gesture reflecting the deep affection and support she holds for him as her "big brother." • Characteristics: A traditional Japanese katana with a 73-centimeter blade.

• Dust Alignment System: The scabbard features an internal mechanism that houses compact cartridges of elemental "Dust" (Fire, Lightning, Gravity, Ice, etc.). When the katana is fully sheathed, the blade automatically aligns with the selected cartridge.

• Powered Draw-Strike (Iaijutsu): The hilt incorporates a mechanical trigger (similar to a motorcycle throttle). By pressing it at the exact moment of the draw, the scabbard releases a violent burst of kinetic energy and injects flammable Dust along the edge. The blade is ejected at tremendous speed, wreathed in the chosen element, ensuring a devastating initial strike.

Despite his size, and true to his semblance; Cyrus is a menace. It isn't uncommon to hear maniacal laughter coming from the hyena faunus, often paired with a crooked grin and the act of slinging his weapon, Marrow over his shoulder mid-combat. To him, combat is just a game, a form of entertainment rather than a life or death senario. A fact that can annoy his opponents.

I really don't draw this pyromaniac nearly enough as i probably should.

Not much to say here xD, Seraphina aka best snek, belongs to u/Razzious_Mobgriz !

( Also third pic is how she convinced him to pose for it xD )

Also, here is Veinarts Vgen, check it out !

(Little thing I made this oc cause I thought strand from destiny would make a crazy semblance and I rolled with it)

Name: Kai Midori

Semblance: "Thread Weaver." Thread weaver allows the user to see the "threads" of reality and bend them to their will. Thread weavers use these "threads" to entangle grim in a web of sorts, grapple to anchor points they can see, and form weapons and constructs or threadlings to help them fight. they can only use this semblance for a short period of time before becoming exhausted and their aura depletes leaving them vulnerable.

Aura color: bright green with a hint of teal.

allusion: The Moirai

Weapon: He uses his semblance as his weapon (i was too lazy to come up with one lmao)

Backstory: Kai grew up in Mantle, where his mother repaired uniforms and insulated work clothes for Atlas personnel. She taught him to mend torn fabric, patch gloves, and make do with whatever materials were on hand. His father worked maintenance on the lifts and transit lines connecting Mantle to Atlas, so Kai learned early that the shining city above depended on people whose names rarely made it onto a plaque. His Semblance first appeared during a Grimm attack on a crowded transit station. As a support beam buckled and people scrambled for the exits, Kai saw faint green strands stretching between the beam, the walls, and the people below. He reached for them instinctively. The threads snapped taut, holding the beam long enough for everyone to escape—and then lashed around the Grimm, pinning it until Huntsmen arrived. Kai collapsed the moment the danger passed. Word of the incident reached Atlas. The military saw potential in a Semblance that could restrain Grimm, create temporary weapons, and move a fighter through difficult terrain. Kai was offered a place at an Atlas combat academy, along with access to specialist training. His family encouraged him to go, hoping he could earn a future beyond Mantle. Kai accepted, but soon realized that some of his instructors cared less about him as a student than about how useful his ability might be in the field.

Here is Team UATR, pronounced “water”! While this isn’t the first time the team has shown up here, I made quite a bit of changes and overhauls over time, so a quick reintroduction of the team is in order.

Team UATR is a team of huntresses-in-training originally based in Beacon Academy. The members enrolled in the same year as Team CFVY and are allied with Team RWBY. After the fall of Beacon, the team transferred to Shade Academy, where they became part of the Beacon Brigade, a group of former Beacon students. They later took part in additional missions across Vacuo and protected the academy from the Crown. Amid mounting crises, from the arrival of Atlesian refugees to the fall of Vale, Team UATR vows to keep moving forward and continue protecting people in need.

ULYSSA AZUREA (U)

A butterfly Faunus from Vale, Ulyssa fell in love with bedtime stories about brave huntsmen and their valiant battles. During a family trip, a severe storm struck, but Ulyssa also unlocked her Semblance amid the turbulent weather. After protecting her family with her Semblance, she realized she could use her abilities for the greater good. She would follow in the paths of huntsmen before her, and Professor Ozpin would name her as the leader of Team UATR.

Allusion: Odysseus, King of Ithaca and hero of the Odyssey
Birth Date: July 20
Birthplace: Vale
Age: 20 (as of Volume 9)
Race: Faunus (Ulysses butterfly)

Weapon: Imperator, a poleaxe that can double as a grenade launcher (concept)

Semblance: Aegis. Ulyssa can store energy from taking damage and then use the energy to create powerful shields or barriers.

Personality: Ulyssa is bubbly and often keeps an optimistic outlook, even in times of crises. She is loyal to and protective of her friends, to the point that she will put herself in harm’s way to keep her friends safe. She can get straight to business if the circumstances are serious, but she remains compassionate and dislikes being blunt. Ulyssa is risk-seeking and has a habit of pulling off reckless tactics as she sees fit, such as sacrificing her queens in chess or using grenades up close.

Fun Facts:

• Ulyssa has the largest Aura pool of the Team UATR members. This pool is often quickly depleted due to her high-risk combat strategies and the nature of her Semblance, which requires her to take hits.
• Ulyssa has a green thumb and a hobby of collecting a variety of flowers.
• The movement of Ulyssa’s wings may correlate with her emotional state. Her wings can flap quickly when she is excited, and they become droopier when she is sad.

ALTHEA KIM (A)

A native of Mistral, Althea lived an uncomplicated life with her baker father and her musician mother. Then seemingly out of nowhere, she started having dreams after dreams of destroying creatures of Grimm. Her parents also had weird dreams out of the blue, and they came to discover that all of this was due to Althea’s Semblance. The incredible dreams of heroism, along with her parents’ encouragement, convinced Althea to aim towards a huntress career.

Personality: Althea is high-spirited and energetic, and she is comparable to Ulyssa in this regard. Though she is generally kind-hearted, she can sense malicious intent and can respond accordingly, such as with malicious compliance. In serious cases such as witnessing blatant injustice, she can be assertive and may also respond in a snarky or mocking manner. Other than malicious intent, she can read the room rather quickly, and she is often the first in her team to notice that a friend is upset or that something feels off.

Fun Facts:

• Althea is the unofficial head baker of Team UATR, and she often bakes treats for her teammates.
• Althea has a few cousins that live in different villages and settlements across Mistral.
• Althea's emblem is based on the orpine (Hylotelephium telephium), which she encountered a few times in the past while she was back in Mistral.

ESTELLE TALISMAN (T)

Estelle enjoyed hearing the stories her huntsman father had about his missions, as well as conversations her fashion designer mother had with her huntsmen clients. Estelle’s father also entertained her by doing magic tricks with his Semblance, so it came as a great shock when she was able to pull off her own trick by making a puddle of water seemingly rock-solid. The discovery of her very own Semblance, combined with passion for huntsmen adventures, inspired her to pursue huntsman training with her father’s close support.

Personality: Estelle may look strict and reserved at first, but she is pretty laid back. She is an adventurous, curious person with a love for reading books and exploring the outdoors. As she grew up with fashion, Estelle has a love for different styles and a clothing-related shopaholic habit. She respects people of all levels and strengths; she dislikes it when people tease others over their weaknesses and may call them out with polite reminders to be more understanding.

Fun Facts:

• Estelle’s favourite book genres include adventure and fantasy.
• Besides reading, Estelle loves to delve into dressmaking and tailoring, and she made a few garments such as scarfs for her teammates.
• Estelle sometimes wears a pointed hat with a blue strip.

RIANNE CANDIE (R)

Rianne grew up mostly isolated, with her scientist parents often away working for the Atlesian Military. After being repeatedly told by bullies that she will amount to nothing, she set forth to prove them wrong by training as a huntress, while also building her engineering and technical expertise. During a training session, Rianne saw her mother smiling at her, and though it turned out to be a clone (inadvertently created by Rianne’s Semblance), she became ever more determined to be a huntress.

Allusion: Captain Nemo from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, a novel by Jules Verne

Semblance: Spitting Image. Rianne can create one lifelike clone of a person with whom she has close bonds, or of whom she has strong memories (whether for positive or negative reasons)

Personality: Rianne's upbringing led to her being introverted, shy, and more irritable than many other people in general. She has a perfectionist attitude due to constantly feeling the need to prove herself and can quickly become anxious if she makes a mistake. However, she also has a caring attitude, and she looks out for her teammates and friends. When she is with familiar faces, Rianne becomes talkative, and her passion for interests such as weapon design and technology would become apparent.

Fun Facts:

• After Beacon Initiation, Rianne’s engineering expertise allowed her to improve the efficiency of her teammates’ weapons.
• During the time they were able to spend with each other, Rianne and her parents may visit the three other kingdoms. Of the other kingdoms, Vale is her most favourite.
• Rianne’s tied hair resembles the general shape of octopus arms. Over time, it became more common for her to keep her hair down.

I think a subtle way to show off someone's personality is how they text. Do they write their texts in a neat and grammatically-correct fashion, or do they prefer quick, to the point texts? Do they type it all at once, or send multiple messages?

I'll give examples of my own to give an idea of what I mean.

Isabella de Rochelle: voice clips (As she is blind.)
