I doubt she could do it single handedly. Maybe with the help of Pyrrha and her sick burns.

Yeah, it really burned her up inside, and she just couldn't keep it together.

Wait...

Am I the only one that suspects Cinder might've been the original Fall Maiden or one of the Fall Maidens at least?

She did say the power was never truly Pyrrha's to begin with.

Maybe what she was really trying to said is that the maiden power are destiny to Salem and not anyone else.

Regarding Grimm Pyrrha i can think of a way it can work without seeming forced:

Comment on TV Tropes:

You know what the most deliciously evil thing Salem could do to Pyrrha? Bring her back, just like this, but NOT brainwash her. Just release her out into the world a twisted, partially corrupted monstrosity with all her memories, ideals, and emotions intact, and sit back and watch as people attack and turn against her for what she did at the Vytal Festival and her hideous new form. God, imagine if she was like an Avatar Tuner from Digital Devil Saga? Forced to glut herself on human flesh to sate the Grimm inside, before it takes her over completely and starts attacking anything that moves like some rabid animal, all while fully aware of what a sick, horrible, disgusting thing she's doing is. But she still wants to do good, she still wants to help people, she still wants to be a hero. It'd be the worst kind of torture for her. I mean they won't it do it because it would be too dark even for RWBY but it would be the worst kinda of torture and she can't even tell her friends.

If I was a spiteful writer, I would have Pyrrha brought back to life (in any kind of form), spending some tender moments with Jaune, who swears that he will never let her go again...only to have it so that Jaune is forced to kill her with his own hand. evil grin

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.

wild mass guessHow I would do it: Grimm Pyhrrah is brought back and attacks stuff. It eventually gets to the point where Ruby and Jaune are the only ones to believe she can be saved. And also I would present both sides of the debate as equally valid.wild mass guess

I wonder if Salem will be revealed to be a Grimm herself, evolved to humanoid form.

The denial about Pyrrha is still strong I see. Like seriously, she was disintegrated. That's frequently Deader than Dead even in settings where resurrection magic exists. Barring time travel or honest-to-god divine intervention, I don't think we're going to see more of Pyrrha outside of flashbacks and/or family members.

[up][up] I see countless characters die in ways that screams "He's fucking dead Jim" and then come back one way or another. YMMV on that but the possibility exist, even if incredibly low.

Plis, no more "Pyrrha's death" shenanigans. It gets tiring after a while.

I think one of the reasons for people saying Pyrrha will come back is... she was turned into gold dust by cinder when she died. Either that is an artistic way to die, or a future plot point.

Also, wild mass guessRuby isn't Dorothy. She's this generation's Dorothy. Which means Jaune won't become Cyborg!Jaune because he's the Cowardly Lion. Instead, Cyborg!Ren.wild mass guess

Salem seems like the type who engages in psychological torture. It would make sense for her to deploy a brainwashed Pyrrah against them

There is another theory about why people is so denial about Phyrra.....

They like the chararter and dosent want to die, so people are complaing which feel the troll boner of Miles and Kerry.

I said before: who cares about Phyrra? Bring back Roman!

[up] [up] Exactly! We must carry on fighting the good fight for our leader, Roman Torchwick!

No, his death was really senseless and abrupt, when deeper depths about him were hinted at.

He should have thought about the deeper meaning of his life before he decided to stand on top of a floating ship surrounded by flying man-eating monsters just to wail on a teenage girl.
