(We all know it's going to be Jaune so don't ask who's it supposed to be.)
Sorry if it seems long because I have to do some little world building (I lied. I have to create RWBY from scratch because the lore are non-sensical & made no sense.) Because I want to provide my reader better quality story telling.
Some changes I made is as follows:
- Grimm are stronger now. The heroes will have to work harder to even beat a beowulf. With a few special one able to gain self awareness and have some "slight" reality altering power. Think the witches from Madoka magica franchise.
- Of course with the Grimm getting stronger. So does the Huntsman. With someone like Qrow or pretty much any Huntsman older than the main cast no longer be a pushover.
- Rank System for the Huntsman.
- More (named) students at Beacon.
- Huntsman are treated like a Rock stars.
- There will not just be four relics but hundreds of them. Each with varying degrees of power. And most are monopolized by the state.
- Don't know what to do with the maidens though. Any suggestions?
- Grimm no longer feed on negative human emotion. Biggest reason for the removal is that it contradict the Faunus Racism subplot. And I don't know about you but I think racism is one heck of a negative emotion. (They still want people dead though)
- Faunus Racism subplot will be handled much better.
- Salem still can't be killed but she can be sealed. With her needing to be sealed every few decades or so.
- Grimm will appear less frequently and only starts appearing more and more when the seal around Salem starts to weaken.
- There will be a cult dedicated to bring back Salem and serves as the primary antagonist.
- Of course everybody favorite part of prequel trilogy. Politics. But it mostly be in the background until it isn't & the heroes are then forced to make a choice.
- There are other group beside the Huntsman fighting Grimms and they hate their guts.
- The event of Ice Queendom is mostly canon and even part of the Grimm Eclipse. Because I needed something to pad out the world building.
& there's more but I would like to keep some a secret for now.
And yes many character's story will be expanded or in a few case rewritten. Adam especially will be rewritten to better reflect the freedom fighter he supposed to represent. He's angry at the world but not an a-hole.
And that's about it I'm already halfway in and I will post the 5k fanfic soon as a form of early preview.
How many confirmed LGBTQ characters does RWBY have? So far I can think:
Blake Belladonna (bisexual)
May Marigold (transgender)
Shion Zaiden from IQ (non-binary)
Yang Xiao Long (sapphic, orientation not confirmed)
Saphron Cotta-Arc (sapphic, orientation not confirmed)
Terra Cotta-Arc (sapphic, orientation not confirmed)
Ilia Amitola (lesbian)
Coco Adel (lesbian)
Scarlet David (gay)
Nolan Porfirio (mlm)
Carmine Esclados (lesbian-coded)
Little (non-binary)
Then there are characters that are implied to be LGBT either in canon content or side content like RWBY Chibi (see: Velvet in the novels when it was teased but not confirmed that she used to have a crush on Coco back at Pharos Academy, and when in Chibi they went on a date—or Cinder implying that she hasn't tried but wouldn't mind dating women but then again that's just Chibi so it doesn't count lmao. And more, I guess. Headcanons and vibes exist).
"My name is Shion Zaiden... I will now invite you into the dream."
Surprise! Kerry and Eddy have plopped Shion's giant hat on me!
And as a bit of a treat, here's a clip from the RWBY Ice Queendom dub featuring as Shannon McCormick as Ozpin, Tiana Camacho as Glynda, and myself as Shion.
*Shion is canonically non-binary, so I will be using they/them to address this character
Shion Zaiden is a character introduced in RWBY’s recent anime spinoff, Ice Queendom. Their occupation is a special kind of huntsman. Using their dream catcher, they hunt Grimm that occupy people’s bodies and minds.
Besides this, we know next to nothing about this unique character. So today let’s see if we can possibly find an allusion to tie them with and possibly find any source of motives or possible backstory.
Let’s go through what we know about Shion. As said before they are a huntsman that specializes in Possession type Grimm, the Nightmare, due to their unique dream wandering semblance. Shion also seems to have a fairly unique fashion sense, sporting large portions of drapey purple topped with a pointed almost witch-like hat. After doing some tough research, I think I found a good candidate.
Let me introduce you to Woot the Wanderer from The Tin Man of Oz, the twelfth entry of the Wizard of Oz books. Woot the Wanderer is a boy from Gillikan Country who travels around the world of dreams, the Lands of Oz, in search of new experiences and people.
The people of Gillikan Country are represented by the color purple. Shion wears a lot of heavy purples, just like the Gillikan people. Shion is also named after the purple flower, Aster Tataricus. Additionally, Woot is often depicted with a large cone hat and walking staff, which translates into Shion’s witch hat and dreamcatcher.
Shion was called by Ozpin, which connects the Wizard of Oz characters together. After helping team RWBY, Shion ventures out to Remnant in search of other Nightmares, such as Woot venturing out into the World of Oz for adventure.
Woot is only in one of the Oz books, so in a way it’s fitting that Shion is sort of one and done. Still, they were a pleasent addition to the cast, and I hope we can see more of them in the future, maybe even in the OG show proper.
Shoutout @schtroumpfalunettes for their contribution
So seeing that I will finally reach 300 subs. (Not including the porn bots) I will be posting something as a reward for my loyal followers in the future.
Originally I'm only going to post the first chapter (10k long) of my long RWBY fic that I been wanting to make for a long time. A RWBY adventure fic featuring characters from an American classic Moby Dick. This will serve as a sequel to Ice Queendom. And also for my fic too. Back in January. So read it first if you want to know what happened beforehand. And don't forget to leave a kudos.
but I also did made promise that I'm going to post smut. I'm going to shave it into 2k-5k because I'm way too busy writing for the other stuffs. But I don't know if you all would be interested in it. So I'm just going to put it into a vote. And a second vote for the ship. If this win of course
Also I'm making a special project called Project: Konzert but it's still mostly a secret until it's released. It will not be released anytime soon you can still vote for it, this is just to see if anyone will be interested in it. It will take places in an AU and it will feature characters cameo from RWBY.
Also don't worry you will be able to read all of them in the future. You just going to decide what you will get 1st.
A look at Project: Konzert. Featuring you all know and love.
The AI images are just for visual aid. Also do be warned that all 8 of them will suffers from a terrible fate in this story. But none more so than your favorite blonde boy. Well how horrible you ask? You will see him losing everything he loves and his hope crushed until he becomes the very thing he swore to destroy. Just imagine...
So apparently an original character made for the Ice Queendom anime, named Shion Zaiden, was confirmed non-binary on the surprise Talk CRWBY to Me they just held. So that’s cool news to lighten this day a bit.
So far, this is my favorite mechanic from Ice Queendom; it’s just so cute. ^^ I wish I could call my best friend Shion on the phone and ask “what are these horrors” IRL
