Well, I get the personality for the RWBY who said Taiyang is over protective and eccentric so for me yang quirky personality and team mon actituded come from him, while her blood knight or thrill seeking should come from Raven.

[up] the real question here is the interaction between Qrow and Taiyang....that should be VERY instersting to see

I hope he's like Joseph Joestar from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure part 2 - silly, fun, a little lecherous, but very noble and completely deadly.
Oh god yes, please [lol]

In other news: I was doing some math and scaling and realized something:

Ironwoods's revolver is FUCKING HUGE.

Seriously, I added this to his entry because holy shit: If one goes by the official height chart's listing of Ironwood being 6'3, his revolver appears to have a barrel length of about 1'1, which is larger than the largest sized barrel of the Smith & Wesson Model 500 (10.5 inches), the largest production revolver in Real Life. The full length of the revolver, from tip of the barrel to the end of it's grip is 2'1.5 long.

That's about the same size as the average Sawed-Off Shotgun. There's Hand Cannons, and then there's this thing which is actually veering into BFG territory [lol]

[up]Also there is another thing: is one of the few weapons who dosent become another thing, is not sword-gun,hamer-gun,chainsaw-gud....is just a regular gun.

That in this setting, make it unique.

[up]Exactly.

Boring Yet Practical, or Simple, yet Awesome? Honestly it's a YMMV on which (I like the simplicity of it though)

Edit: I just noticed something on the Hand Cannon page:

"The Pfeifer Zeliska revolver: [.....] It weighs 13 pounds unloaded and is over 21 inches long in total. [.....] Also, it's the gun in the page picture."

.... Ironwood's gun is about as long, if not longer than the largest revolver ever made

Holy shit.

[up]Well, that explain why it dosent need to be something else, with something that big and heave he can just hit them and cause the same freaking damage.

Also in a somewhat related thng...is just me or glynda and ironwood have(or used to) have something? it seen they know each other before...

[up]Especially because, if you look at the Pfeifer Zeliska on the Hand Cannon page, it's barrel is very skinny compared to Ironwood's, meaning his revolver could easily be double the weight (though it could also be made of lightweight materials, I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and guess it at about 20 pounds).

Yeah, no wonder the thing made a Sickening "Crunch!" when he Pistol-Whipped that Grimm, it's literally a club when used as a melee weapon [lol]

And yeah, they seem to have a "Like an Old Married Couple" thing going on. Maybe an old fling between them perhaps?

[up]Mabe Ironwood weapon was a club that is ALSO gunevil grin

And yeah, for what I see they look like they have a flint in the pass, my headcannon(or fanfic idea if you like) is wild mass guessIronwood and Glynda where both Ozpin students and a couple for a while until the accident that Left Ironwood actual condition, maybe because he rush to battle or something, that cause a breach that left to their break upwild mass guess

Anyone think that a suitcase as a weapon would be awesome. One side it has a Hidden Sub Machine Gun the other side it has a Hidden Rocket Launcher and then there's a button that creates a long handle and can be used like a hammer.

We already have a purse/Gatling cannon.

Why would you even want a hidden weaponry briefcase? Though, I'm pretty sure that one like Sven's wouldn't be too out of place in Remnant

If Jaune's weapon is a normal sword and shield, what would his Remnant!Spanish cousin Juane's weapon be?

Juane would have a Zorro-like sword as a weapon.

[up]And he'd be carving the letter 'J' in every single Grimm he kills.grin

Wouldn't the extra weight of Ironwood's super revolver help manage the recoil?

Now, I can't help but wonder what Juane's Semblance would be. [lol]

[up][up]More than likely. I mean, the Pfeifer Zeliska .600 Nitro Express revolver weighs 13 pounds because that's the only way it's practical as a weapon. Because .600 Nitro Express is an ELEPHANT GUN RIFLE round. The recoil of even a .600 round isn't enough to make something that massive fly around.

Now, I'd say Ironwood's just strong enough to not really care about the recoil, and that also seems the case, as he fires it one-handed from his non-cyborg arm.

I seem a lot of Taiyang and Raven talk in relation to how Yang turned out, but wasn't Summer the one who raised her during her early years? Surely there's some nurture to go along with that nature in how she developed. What attributes might Summer the "Super Mom", to use Yang's own fond description, have shaped in Yang?

BlackSunNocturne Since: Aug, 2013
#26019: Feb 11th 2016 at 9:05:06 AM

I think probably Yang's dependability, niceness, sociability, and outgoing nature is from Summer's influence in all honesty.

Seeing as how Ruby also has those traits, it's very likely.

[up]Oh god, if it's ever revealed that Summer is the reason Yang's a Pungeon Master I'm going to lose so much respect for her [lol]

Also, I just realized a Hilarious in Hindsight regarding some of the RWBY AUs people come up with. Most of the "RWBY as adult Huntresses" fanarts have either Ruby or Weiss being the ones with missing arms. Oh the irony.

[up]We were all predicting Ruby was going to loose an arm fighting Neo because of the whole "Neo's gonna do something that'll make us hate her" thing. Then Adam did his Jetstream Sam impression. Ruby could still loose her arm... or become like Dunban.

if Summer is still alive, them clearly Yang have her plot amour and hability to not dyingevil grin

But for serious I would Yang and Ruby friendly personality

I wonder if Ironwood's Compensating for Something. Maybe it's advertisement for his iron wood.

The whole comparison with Yang and Raven I think is case, with Raven being a Social Darwanist. Also, I don't think Raven is the Big Bad. It feels tact on. She comes off as someone who would do her own dirty work and take the power for herself than someone who works through minions and such to me.

[up][up][up] Well, Neo still has to do her Incredibly Heinous Deed, so she's probably fine. We haven't seen her "die" anyway, just Mary Poppins off the airship.

Roman... well, here's hoping.

[up] Maybe she's doing some work herself in the land of Offscreen RWBY, securing other Maidens and what have you?
