* KickTheSonOfABitch: When Nora defies RWBY's expectations and ''doesn't'' attack Mercury [[Recap/RWBYV3E6Fall like Yang did in canon]], the group decides to go through with their Plan B to draw Grimm towards the Vytal Festival by gathering the worst of the White Fang and Crimson Thorns ([[EvenEvilHasStandards particularly the child murderers and rapists]]) and terrorizing the shit out of them before killing them all.

* {{Kayfabe}}: In public, Blake Belladonna and Weiss Schnee are mortal enemies, whose groups - the Schnee Dust Company and the White Fang - hate each other to bits. In private, they're great friends and enjoy each other's company after having to deal with [[GenkiGirl Ruby]] and [[BloodKnight Yang]] all of the time.


Added DiffLines:

* MightyGlacier: Attention is drawn to exactly how ''tanky'' Jaune is, what with having a crazy amount of aura and wielding a shield. The glacier part comes in when you remember that his only offensive tool is a sword, and he really isn't all that fast. [[spoiler: During [=JNPR's=] fight with [=CVFY=], he takes enough gunfire from Coco to down a dozen Nevermores by her estimate, with practically no reaction.]]


Added DiffLines:

* NebulousEvilOrganization: The Commission, though not really all that nebulous. It's specifically made to counter Ozpin's AncientConspiracy, as they feel that he's been doing a piss-poor job of keeping the world safe, given the state it's in.

!!''The Commission'' contains the following tropes:
* AdaptationalBadass: Team RWBY. While the girls are decent fighters in canon, but they're still NewMeat. In this fic, Blake and Ruby are the two most feared and wanted criminals on the planet, Weiss rules the corporate world with such ruthlessness that chills Cinder and Yang is at the head of a mercenary company on par with any of the kingdoms' armies and delivers a CurbStompBattle on Neo when they first meet.
* AgeLift: Team RWBY's aged up in relation to everyone else.
* TheCoup: How the girls acquire power, they go to their respective groups and blackmail, intimidate or otherwise muscle their way to leadership.
* CoverBlowingSuperpower: Roman's dust store robbery has Ruby covering his escape instead of Cinder, being that the latter is with Weiss as her secretary. Unfortunately, Ruby's incredible rifle marksmanship clues Glynda in to her being in Vale due to no one else being that good with that particular weapon-type.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: Jaune and Pyrrha, Coco and Velvet, Ren and Nora. People who have just met them tend to assume them all to be couples, only to be surprised when it's cleared up that they aren't (until the former two couples do get together, the latter two have an understanding).
* OnlySaneMan: Fox for Team CVFY.
* PrivateMilitaryContractor: Yang's Dust Devils. It's essentially an answer to [[VideoGame/CallOfDutyAdvancedWarfare Atlas]].
* VillainProtagonist: Team RWBY.
* YouAllMeetInAnInn: The girls of Team RWBY weren't actually together in a team when they were in Beacon. Instead, they met in a bar, bond over a plate of cookies and work their way up from there.
