* TokenEvilTeammate: Harriet is obsessed with competition and will regard even allies as a challenge she must compete against. Vine admonishes her for this behaviour when they're first properly introduced to Team RWBY; her only interest in the heroes is to see what they're capable of. Team RWBY and Ace-Ops end up fighting when Ironwood orders Team RWBY's arrest and the heroes resist. Harriet tells Ruby that she had Team RWBY pegged from the start and proceeds to try and defeat her violently, even attempting to strangle her with her legs. In the middle of the fight, she and Marrow argue about it: she admonishes Marrow for holding back against Weiss while he criticizes her for behaving excessively towards Ruby, whom she's only supposed to arrest. It reaches the point that, when Winter and the Ace-Ops turn on Ironwood upon discovering his intent to bomb Mantle, Harriet doesn't and goes so far as to try to carry out his plan herself.

* EmotionEater: His Semblance allows him to physically remove negative emotions, with the strong implication that he used it as a means to placate tensions between Mantle and Atlas citizens and leadership. In the game itself however, he is made to use his semblance to place negative emotions into containers to attract Grimm.

* FantasticRacism: That an in-game Faunus NPC expresses trepidation at him while human Mantle [=NPCs=] express nothing but admiration for him, and the fact that he targets Faunus labor for the few scenes he's in, shows that he considers them more expendable for his goals.

* RainbowMotif: Neon leaves a rainbow wake in her path. Even her ''[[WingdingEyes starry eyes]]'' are rainbow gradient!

* {{Conscription}}: After Salem arrives in Atlas, Ironwood is forced to use all his available troops to fend off her invading Grimm. When his forces start dwindling, he starts drafting the students of Atlas Academy, Team FNKI being the most notable of them [[HelmetsAreHardlyHeroic thanks to not wearing helmets.]]

A musician who resents the Schnees, and a self-duplication Semblance. He mostly supports Neon in combat, but is still extremely dangerous on his own thanks to his trumpet.

A hyper-energetic cat Faunus who likes rollerblades. Not shy about dropping insults, Neon skates around the battlefield and uses a pair of nunchaku to deliver painful strikes on her foe.

%%[[caption-width-right:350:some caption text]]

The self proclaimed Mayor of Mosset Town.

%% * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He is quite a strange man when the girls encounter him.
* TheHermit: He lives in a smelly old cave, which he calls his village.
%% * MayorOfAGhostTown: He is the self-proclaimed mayor of Mosset Town. He actually lives in the Mosset Grotto.

* VillainHasAPoint: While Jacques ''is'' an evil douche, the one thing he always brings up as a huge concern is Ironwood's abuse of power. At first, this might seem more as a selfish thing since most of what he was doing was inconveniencing the Schnee Dust Company, but come Volume 7 and the dictatorial things Ironwood pulls gives Jacques some legitimacy, especially when he tries to get the council to throw him out. By the end of Volume 8, everyone has turned on Ironwood for his abuse of power, and Ironwood ends up in a jail cell next to Jacques, who can't resist needling him about the consequences of his abuse of power.

* ParentalSubstitute: Weiss's mother is a neglectful alcoholic and her father is a self-absorbed businessman who is only concerned with maximizing profits and his own image. Klein, on the other hand, is a friendly butler who uses his ability to shift personalities to cheer up Weiss when she's feeling low. He provides her with coffee after she's been in a cold room, uses his rude and grumpy personality to make her laugh by mocking Jacques's behaviour, and has a motherly personality that fusses over her well-being. Once Jacques detains Weiss for her insolence in Volume 4, Klein doesn't hesitate to secretly help her escape the family mansion and flee Atlas. Thus, Weiss considers Winter and Klein as the only family she has left. If the debatable canon of ''WebAnimation/RWBYChibi'' is considered, he was this for Winter as well.

* GreaterScopeVillain: While Cinder wasn't exactly the sweetest kid, it was years of her foster family's abuse that would turn her into Salem's [[KickTheDog dog-kicking]] pet monster.

* SatelliteCharacter: Ciel only exists just to center around herself being Penny's partner for the doubles round and makes ''no'' further appearence outside of that one scene. Not even when Penny is destroyed or when Penny is rebuilt in Volumes 3 & 7 respectively.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Jacques is a CorruptCorporateExecutive and a ControlFreak, but he is not a murderer. In ''ComicBook/RWBYJusticeLeague'', [[spoiler:he hires assassins to kill Victor Stone to cover up the nature of the failed space mission which would implicate the SDC for the failure]].

* MagicalBarefooter: Here footwear consists of shinpads that cover the top of her feet, and trouser bands that loop over the middle of her feet, leaving her toes, heels and most of the soles exposed despite the harsh climate of Solitas. She uses her feet to anchor herself when in battle by sheathing her feet in energy that plants her into the ground like the roots of a tree.

* FriendlyRival: They're introduced in Volume 3 as one of the teams representing Atlas in the tournament. When Flynt and Neon fight Weiss and Yang, Flynt is hostile to Weiss because her father put his father out of business and Neon spends the fight insulting Yang's weight. However, as soon as they lose the fight, Flynt compliments Weiss's willingness to sacrifice herself for her team-mate and Neon begs them join them for a party because she thinks they're completely awesome. The whole team is also willing to help Team JNPR and Oscar train during Volume 7; Neon again trash-talks her opponents but is quick to bestow compliments and praise once the fighting is over.

* EmotionEater: His Semblance allows him to physically remove negative emotions, with the strong implication that he used it as a means to placate tensions between Mantle and Atlas citizens and leadership. In the game itself however, he is blackmailed and made to use his semblance to place negative emotions into containers to attract Grimm.

* EmotionEater: His Semblance allows him to physically remove emotions and place them into containers that then can be used to attract Grimm.
