Roman's "divorce" crack was just a joke at Cinder in V 2 E 1.

I think Merc's problem is more his dad was training him to be cold blooded killer, the drunk thing was just an added bonus.

Since Merc's insights come off as tools of the trade.

Wait, if they were originally looking for Marcus, what was Mercury's role in the whole scheme?

[up] I'm assuming at that point, the whole "fuck up the Vytal tournament" plan hadn't even been formulated. At that point, Cinder was looking for a disciplined expert in killing other humans, an assassin.

Basically, Cinder wanted The Guy. Marcus was The Guy, and Merc was The Kid. Now Merc is The Guy.

Hi everyone, Syrika here! Just thought I'd advertise that I'm liveblogging RWBY, and I'm about to start the second episode.

I can't look at this thread or add it to my watchlist because I have to remain totally blind, but if this post irritates you, send me a PM and I'll stay out of here! [lol] Thanks.

Currently writing something. Currently procrastinating.

[up][up]well Salem and Cinder plan is pretty much divide and conquest, so Marcus could be used to disposed problematic elements.

Just found out that people made RWBY song customs for Rocksmith. Here's one of them:

If there's one thing that RWBY does right, it's that the adults of the setting are NOT overshadowed strength-wise by the younger protagonists.

Sure, RWBY and PN (still unsure of Ren's actual threat level, probably somewhere between 0.75 and 1 Blake, maybe 1.1 if we're generous) are skilled and competent in their own right, but older characters like Roman, Banesaw, Cinder, the Ozluminati and Adam etc, are all significantly stronger fighters (by varying degrees) and more competent

Basically averting Adults Are Useless.

They, in quite a few cases, are still useless when it comes to solving the parts of the conflict we see (e.g. more or less entire vol.1 past ep.1, first half of vol. 2 also has no good adults doing anything useful). But, yes, when they do show up on the battlefield, they are noticeably stronger than those still in training.

That said, sometimes, battlefield can significantly alter the power balance between characters: Pyrrha would never fare anywhere as well as she did against Cinder in an empty field with no extra metal for her to control.

I would question Banesaw. For all we know we haven't ever seen him since the crash of the train. He might be dead unlike Roman who survived the cr-wait.

...

...oh right. ;^;

I have read in many places that Roman's semblance might be related to come back from the dead of something like that. Could that be a cool ability or the Denial is real?
