*ChessMotifs: Just like I'm the main series, teammates are chosen by a selection of chess pieces.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Facepalm}}: Lyla pulls this the second time Verse and Cherie smack into each other.


Added DiffLines:

* MeaningfulName: All of the character's have a name that reflect their color scheme, but a few go deeper than that.
** Verse reflects his poetic nature. In writing, a Verse is comparable to a stanza in a poem.
** Orion is named after the constellation Orion, also known as The Hunter. Orion himself is studying to be a huntsman.
** This also applies to Licorice, but by her last name, Hullu, which is Finnish for [[spoiler: crazy.]]
* MotorMouth: Licorice tends too lean this way.


Added DiffLines:

* NamedWeapons: Everyone has a specialty weapon with a unique name. Just to name a few:
** Verse's is Falchion Lyric, a fullered crusader sword that doubles as a shotgun of sorts.
** Orion's is the Day's End, a modular axe that can break apart and be rearranged a number of different ways.
** Lyla's is Stellar Wind, a wooden SimpleStaff that acts as a long-range sniper rifle. It can also unfold into a glider and glove using a RecoilBoost.
** Noir has two. Night Sun is a whip that can mechanically fools into his mask. Blood Moon is a simple pistol.


Added DiffLines:

* PreAsskickingOneLiner: Orion gives one to Licorice before he [[CurbstompBattle ends their sparring match]].
--> '''Orion''': You should really focus on the match, or else your opponent might do [[CurbstompBattle this]].
* TheQuietOne: Noir usually doesn't say very much, so when he does speak, it's usually meaningful.

Added DiffLines:

* DarkIsNotEvil: Noir. Despite [[CastingAShadow his]] [[LivingShadow semblance]] and his past, he's a good guy who's fighting to protect the innocent and [[TheAtoner make up for his crimes.]]


Added DiffLines:

* LivingShadow: Basically, Noir's semblance. He can control his actual shadow and affect the real world with it.

* AmnesiacHero: Noir can't remember who he really is due to his [[IllBoy sickness]].
* AmusingInjuries: Used occasionally for a humor break. Verse and Cherie can't seem to stop [[CrashIntoHello running into each other]]. And there was that one time Lyla crashed into Noir during initiation.
* AnAxeToGrind: Orion's weapon has three forms, the primary of which is a large axe.
* AncestralWeapon: Celeste's bow has been passed down for generations.
* AnIcePerson: Anyone who uses Ice Dust in their weapons.
* ArcNumber: 4, just like the original series.
* {{Asexuality}}: Razz, according to her bio.
* AsYouKnow: Used by Headmaster Pine to describe the War of Remnant.
* AttackItsWeakPoint: A boarbatusk gave Verse a scar on his shoulder, and it's a major weak point in his body. On the flip, he was able to deduce this about the boarbatusk's underbelly and exploit that to kill the beast.
* AttentionWhore: Diamond claims this of Verse. This causes Verse to break out in rage and [[spoiler: admit he's a Faunus.]]
* AwesomeButImpractical: Razz's weapon is extremely powerful, but only holds one shot and is inaccurate.
* AxCrazy: Licorice.
* BadassAdorable: Lyla and Diamond try to be stylish, but they can still kick ass.
* BadassFamily: The Hart family. Nyanza and Sage are huntresses in training, and their father Daniel is a retired huntsman. You have to be badass in that business to survive to retirement.
* BadassNative: Celeste.
* BadassTeacher: All of the instructors at New Beacon have to be this in order to teach the students.
* BadBoss: [[spoiler: Baki and Qara execute underlings who disappoint them.]]

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12452809/1/Second-Generation RWBY: Second Generation]] is an OriginalCharacter fanfiction by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/9093647/VerseWarden VerseWarden]] about an AlternateFuture for Remnant. Set twenty-five years after the fall of Beacon and five years after the War of Salem, the story follows eight students enrolled in New Beacon. While there, they all get caught in a massive pileup of conspiracies of both a political and mystical.

The story focuses on team VOLN, comprised of [[WarriorPoet Verse Warden]], [[PlayingWithFire Orion Brean]], [[TheChick Lyla Marko]], and [[DarkAndTroubledPast Noir]] as they learn the ins-and-outs of being Huntsmen. As they have a lot to learn, sinister forces are building up a plan to destroy everything. Will they be able to survive what's coming?

The story currently has one volume of twenty chapters, but the author has confirmed release of a second volume beginning May 15, 2017.

----
!!''Second Generation'' provides examples of:

* AbusiveParents: Orion's father definitely qualifies, if tying him to a post and beating him counts.
* AcheyScars: overlaps with AttackItsWeakPoint. Verse has a scar on his shoulder from a boarbatusk in initation, and it is a very weak point in his body.
* ActionDuo: Initially, the main characters were all paired before coming together. The best example is Nyanza and Sage, who were this well before the timeline of the story.
* ActionFashionista: Diamond.
* ActionGirl: Due to [[WorldOfBadass the setting]], every female character is this to some extent.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Chapter 13 focuses entirely on [[spoiler: the Jericho Initiates]].
* Adorkable: Many characters go into this at times, but props go to Orion, for his ManChild tendencies.
* AFatherToHisMen: Gender inverted with Cherie. Her caring for her team is one of the reasons Headmaster Pine appoints her as leader of Team CRNS
* Ahem: Used by Dr. Oro to get his class's attention.
* AlcoholicParent: Orion's dad, Tyler.
* AllJustADream: [[spoiler: Verse's encounter with Centani.]]
* FantasticRacism: Best shown off by [[spoiler: Cobalt Drew]]
