History Fanfic / RedLikeBlood

* AdaptationalBadass: Ruby, in addition to her natural abilities from her home series, is turned into a vampire at the beginning of the story, granting her many new abilities on top of that.

* BlessedWithSuck: Ruby now has all the powers of a vampire added on to her natural abilities as a Huntress-in-training, but those abilities come with many drawbacks. She's prone to SensoryOverload many times since she doesn't know how to work with her enhanced senses, sunlight hurts like Hell, she frequently struggles to keep her bloodlust in check, she now has many razor-sharp canine teeth that freak anyone out when they see them. Really, it's pretty accurate to call her powers a curse.

** The mercenary Cinder employs to replace Mercury is clearly based on ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}.

* AdaptationalBadass: Ruby's turned into a vampire at the beginning of the story, so add her natural abilities with all the powers of a vampire and she's ''way'' more powerful than her canon counterpart by a landslide.

** The mercenary Cinder employs to replace Mercury is fairly obviously based on ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}.

** Instead of Pyrrha dying to Cinder during the Battle of Beacon, [[spoiler:Yang is killed by a stab through the back from Adam, and Ruby in return kills both Emerald and Adam]].

* BloodKnight: Quite literally with Ruby and Legion, as both have a sadistic urge to rip powerful enemies to pieces. While Legion is accepting of this, Ruby doesn't like her newfound bloodlust.

* HumanoidAbomination: Legion, all the way. She's actually the physical manifestation of a portion of the souls Alucard absorbed after fighting Walter, and has all the disturbing power that the No-Life King had.

* BloodKnight: Quite literally with Ruby and Legion, as both have a sadistic urge to rip powerful enemies to pieces. While Legion is accepting of this, Ruby really hates her newfound bloodlust.

* TooDumbToLive: The Vale Council refuse to make so much as a token gesture towards Faunus rights in order to spite Legion, and effectively do exactly what she publicly accuses them of in an attempt to see her defeated. This goes about as well as you'd expect it to.

* TheStationsOfTheCanon: Much of what happens in ''RWBY'' happens here. Because very little change happens, much of the events are skimmed over outside of the differences.

* ImplacableMan: Vampires, as in ''Hellsing'', are incredibly hard to kill, and this is actually taken a step further once Aura enters the equation, since it's implied each soul they assimilate bolsters it even further. Exploiting a vampiric weaknesses is the only real way to even slow them down.

* AdaptationalBadass: Ruby's turned into a vampire at the beginning of the story, so add her natural abilities with all the powers of a vampire and she's ''way'' more powerful than in canon by a landslide.

Ruby encounters an odd, injured woman and tries to help her. Instead, she finds herself bitten and cursed with dark power that she struggles to control. Can she become a Huntress while controlling her newfound dark urges?

* BloodKnight: Literally with Ruby and Legion, as both have a sadistic urge to rip powerful enemies to pieces. While Legion is accepting of this, Ruby really hates this.

* OnlyICanKillHim: Or rather, her, in this case. Both Legion and Ruby want to be the one to kill [[spoiler:Cinder, to the point they are actively preventing the other from finishing her off. It's not all to Cinder's benefit, as at one point, Ruby gets her out of Legion's grip by cutting off her arm.]]

** Instead of Pyrrha dying at the Battle of Beacon, [[spoiler:Yang is killed by a stab through the back from Adam, and Ruby in return kills both Emerald and Adam]].

* TooDumbToLive: The Vale Council refuse to make so much as a token gesture towards Faunus rights in order to spite Legion, and effectively do exactly what she publicly accuses them of in an attempt to see her defeated. This goes about as well as you might expect.

* ScaryTeeth: All vampires have these. Ruby's teeth get replaced by razor-sharp canines, and many who see them either find them creepy or think she's faunus and [[FantasticRacism treat her accordingly]].

** Hellsing Abridged gets a few nods, and Yang directly quotes Alucard at one point.

* DeathByAdaptation: Mercury gets killed by Legion early into the story's events. [[spoiler: Instead of Pyrrha dying at the Battle of Beacon, Yang is killed by a stab through the back from Adam, and Ruby in return kills both Emerald and Adam]].

* OnlyICanKillHim: Her, in this case. Both Legion and Ruby want to be the one to kill [[spoiler:Cinder, to the point they are actively preventing the other from finishing her off. It's not all to Cinder's benefit, as at one point, Ruby gets her out of Legion's grip by cutting off her arm.]]
