[up]Simple. Tzeentch exists to plan and scheme. He plots and schemes, turning wheels within wheels, gambits within gambits, each of his plans designed to sabotage another one of his plans which in turn sabotages another, and so on ad infinitum. The irony is that if Tzeentch were ever to truly dominate and win, there would be nothing left for him to change and therefore no point to his existence. Hence why his plans ultimately fail - the true measure of his Chessmaster skills is that none of his countless schemes allow him to be too successful, even by accident.

I just don't see that happening.

Pyrrha was a greater fighter than anyone else in the main cast students. And she was still defeated by Cinder, after Cinder had just fought Ozpin, and then would've soundly beaten Ruby if not for Deus Ex Silver Ao E Grimm Flashbang Paralysis Eyes.

And even that probably did nothing. It's not just going her way, it's falling right into her lap on a silver platter.

Wouldn't he have to deal with the other three Elder Gods or whatever if he actually did win? Since I very much doubt any one of them would let him rise above all of them.

So what then Cinder loses and does not gain the Fall powers? That would not really have made her a threat plus it would underplay the theme of the season where the risks got higher. I didn't like Roman being killed for good, but that at least showed no one is safe anymore.

Just Makima.

On more hilarious note, notice how three fourth of Season 3 deaths were forwards redheads?

PROTECT NORA FOR ALL COST

[up] No, because there is no body to be shown openly for someone.

[up][up][up][up]Nope. If Tzeetnch wins, they're dead. That's how Chaos works, if one of the 4 (technically 5) wins, the others lose

[up][up]Go right ahead.

[up]Yeah, I noticed that. PROTECT THE CINNAMON ROLL! [lol]

Wait, 3/4? Who's the other 1/4?

[up]x4 So wouldn't Tzeentch always fail then, since the other Gods or whatever the fuck they are would constantly be trying to stop him?

I'm just going to float out the idea of adding the latter part of Volume 3 as a whole to the Broken Base entry.

If nobody feels there's enough dissent concerning it, fine, but it feels like there's enough to a least sugest the possibility.

Cinder's primary goal was to gain the Fall Maiden's powers. Maybe take out communications and kidnap(?) Ozpin. And instill chaos as per Salems orders, I guess. Everything else was puppy punting. As for everything turning up Cinder: The council was too trusting of Ozpin this volume, and Ironwood had his head up his ass.

Salem seems to want to watch the world and Ozpin burn.

There was literally no point to her death than show off Cinder's "awesome" new powers and to showcase how high the stakes were now, because apparently everything that had happened since "Fall" hadn't done that enough.

Not to mention that this comes after spending the entirety of the second half of this season being emotionally and physically broken. Pyyrha's treatment this season was scornful, spiteful and downright exploitative. There was literally no reason she had to die, especially not in such an over the top gruesome matter.

I will think ways of reviving the three major deaths in hilarious ways to infuriate the FNDM

Penny: She shows up all mangled up in Atlas. She says she went sleep mode.

Roman: We see him show up without explanation as a bartender. He explains the Roman Ruby saw die was actually Neo's weird illusion thingy.

Pyrrha: It was actually a decoy created by Ozpin. She went underground with him and will show up on volume 12

@Gojira: Malal, who is semi-canonical, and exists to spite people.

[up][up] I have to ask, why are you even here at this point? It's abundantly clear you don't like the direction RWBY is going (and was planned to go from day one), and that's fine; the show wasn't for you, though I will admit they dragged out the cheerful part of it for way too long.

Honestly, I think the most advisable thing to do is wait till everything cools down a bit, before we start adding tropes. It been one hell of a finale. So where all pretty much tensed and hype.

Let's just hold out on the troping, k?

Also, it's really unlike Pyrrha, who pretty much knows her limits, to go off after someone Ozpin said not to fight.

[up][up]Except it isn't. She went off because she cared for her friends, and knew if she didn't do something people (Jaune) would get hurt. That's perfectly in line with Pyrrha's personality.

We've never seen her stop doing something because she knew her limits.
