History Recap / RWBYV2WorldOfRemnant

* EmotionEater: Grimm are attracted to negative emotions. This can create devastating vicious circles for villages that are trying to survive. If a village is attacked by the Grimm, it might be able to fight back. However, the attack itself will trigger feelings of panic, which attract even more Grimm to attack the village.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: The Female Narrator sounds human enough, but every time she talks about humanity, she talks in terms of "them" and "they" as if she is not a member of the human race, or considers herself somehow separated from humanity.
* UnreliableNarrator: The narrator constantly speaks as though she is lecturing about a world she is not a part of, often referring to humanity in terms of 'they'. She speaks in terms of what humanity knows about its world, but always ends her episodes with an ominous hint that she [[{{Foreshadowing}} knows things]] that humanity doesn't, and that the truth isn't necessarily what she's just explained in the episode. For example, in the 'Dust' episode, she hints that the origin of Dust isn't what humanity thinks it is, while in the 'Grimm' episode, she hints that there's a dark reason for why the Grimm are so determined to kill humanity.

* {{Cliffhanger}}: The Female Narrator ends the episode by reiterating how dangerous the world of Remnant is and that the key to humanity's survival is the ability of the four Kingdoms to stand united. Her voice is sly and ominous; as she says the key is for them to stand united, the beacons of light representing the four Kingdoms on the map suddenly extinguish like snuffed-out candles and camera abruptly fades to black.

* WeatherManipulation: Humans can use Dust in their raw form; this is described as an elegant and destructive use of Dust, and the description is accommodated by the visual of a person tosses Dust into the sky to create powerful thunder and lightning. The narrator warns that attempting to use Dust in this form requires the user to be extremely disciplined as it's easy to lose control of Dust this way.

* MagicAIsMagicA: Dust requires Aura to be triggered, can be woven into clothing, used raw, infused into a person's body, or manufactured into cartridges. Dust's importance is paramount in the survival of Remnant, but no one is sure where it originates from. It also will not function outside the planet's atmosphere, making Dust-powered space missions impossible. It may sound like magic, but it's not.

It also will not function outside the planet's atmosphere, making Dust-powered space missions impossible. It may sound like magic... but magic does exist on Remnant and it is something else entirely. [[OutsideContextMagic Something that doesn't use Dust]].

* GreenRocks: In its raw form, Dust is a crystal that can be found anywhere in Remnant. When applied to objects, weapons, clothing or people, then activated with Aura, it can have magic-like effects. Dust mining is a dangerous business that leads to serious, long-term health problems.
