1* CompleteMonster: ''Dark'' gives AdaptationalVillainy to the following duo:
2** [[Characters/RWBYOzpinAndOscar Lord Ozpin]], born Ozma, is Remnant's [[PlanetBaron ruthless and power-hungry dictator]]. Born without a Semblance, Ozma sought to [[AmbitionIsEvil gain all power and magic]] to make up for this trait. Learning under [[Characters/RWBYSalem Salem]] and the Four Maidens, Ozma went behind their backs to learn forbidden magic, before sacrificing the Four Maidens' lives to set up a spell to [[ImmortalityImmorality achieve immortality]] for the sake of his goals. [[BodySurf Hijacking countless people's bodies over centuries]]--with said people [[AndIMustScream remaining fully conscious of this their entire lives]]--Ozma constantly attempts to kill not only Salem but the Four Maidens' successors, regardless of their age. As Lord Ozpin, Ozma takes over the entirety of Remnant; creates a worldwide dictatorship; enables the slavery of countless Faunus people across the planet; turns Salem into a vegetable to slowly kill her; forcibly drafts children as young as 5 to be sent to his hellish academies to be twisted into becoming Hunstmen and Huntresses loyal to only him; [[BadBoss frequently punishes his subordinates with solitary confinement, torture, and death]] if [[YouHaveFailedMe they fail him]]; and ultimately plots to [[YourSoulIsMine absorb all of Remnant's souls]] to obtain all the magic and power he feels entitled to.
3** [[Characters/RWBYTeamRWBY Ruby Rose]] is reimagined as "the Reaper", a psychopathic SerialKiller with ambitions of godhood. Introduced killing her [[SelfMadeOrphan own parents]], Ruby then cuts off her half-sister Yang Xiao Long's arms and eyes out of pure sadism. Enslaving her, Ruby humiliates and abuses her on a daily basis for kicks or for minor or imagined offenses and forces her to kill innocents. Breaking into houses, Ruby slaughters the families inside, children and babies included. One case involves her breaking into a barn, killing an old lady, then "[[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil violating]]" a boy to the point he begged for death. Blocking the escape route during Vale's bombing, Ruby tried to kill the survivors who wanted to flee, taking Cinder Fall's eye. Holding a grudge against Neopolitan for having smacked her in the face, Ruby kills her by cutting her in half.
4* NightmareFuel: Unsurprisingly for a DarkFic, this is expected. The highlights include:
5** Almost everything Ruby does, from [[spoiler:[[SelfMadeOrphan killing her parents]] and enslaving Yang]] to being a [[SerialKiller serial killer]] with no regard for whoever she kills, [[WouldHurtAChild children included.]]
6*** What she done to Yang to do doesn't help, either. [[EyeScream she made her blind]] [[AnArmAndALeg and cut off her her arms]] and forced her to kill. Yang's mental journal in ''365.5'' doesn't help either, [[SanitySlippage showing that she has been]] [[BrainwashedAndCrazy brainwashed.]]
7%%* TearJerker: Cinder's reaction to [[spoiler:Neo's death.]]
8* TheWoobie: Yang loses her parents to her half sister Ruby, who blinds her, has her arms removed, and keeps her as a slave who can't even perform bodily functions without Ruby's permission.
