[up]To be fair, nobody at Beacon caught onto how obviously evil she was until the end either, despite all of the signs Cinder was giving.

I don't think she was in the school that often...most students would probably just assume she's the Alpha ma...B-word whenever she actually was there and none of the teachers would really notice unregistered students.

@Guy 01 how was Cinder obviously evil at Beacon.

Re: Faunus. It doesn't help that almost every Faunus we've seen so far with the exception of Velvet and the monkey girl is or was involved in criminal activity of some kind.

Its amazing how you can Ron the Death Eater a character who's already an asshole to begin with. That takes true talent.

I'm not even sure where the rapist angle came from. Last time I was in this thread we were talking about rooting for villains, and when I get back from work sudden there is talk of Adam being a rapist.

We don't actually know if Cinder was an unregistered student. It's possible that she, Emerald and Mercury were actually registered as Haven students. It would certainly explain why they could compete in a globally-televised event without red flags rising.

They might have deliberately joined Haven to enact the eventual plan. Let's say that Blake was working for the White Fang all along. She legitimately registered as a Beacon student. Ozpin indicated that Blake's route into Beacon was non-standard but considered acceptable (from the point-of-view of admission).

Cinder, Emerald and Mercury (and Neo, for that matter, since she was the fourth) could have taken a similar route into Haven that Blake took when joining Beacon. That would get them through the year-group and the selection process to make their entry into the tournament completely legitimate. They'd only need to engage in the illegal stuff once they've arrived in Vale and Beacon Academy via completely legal means.

Considering how often we see Cinder screwing around with other people's computer networks, I assumed she just fudged some records.

It is possible she did legit register for Haven. I mean, they had the time to do it. They did recruit the White Fang some time after the Black Trailer and we don't exactly know how much time has passed between that and Volume 1. I imagine it part of the plan the whole time so they can eventually bring down the tower and start off an invasion of Grimm.

[up][up]I'd be believing that she registered them that way, because why do anything the legal way when your plans always work?

Also she never goes to her classes...so that's just a thing no one cares about, it's just her two lackeys...minions that have to learn stuff.

Considering we've only seen Beacon, Vale, and surrounding areas, it is possible she did go to classes at Haven to maintain her cover.

edit: Of course, post-V3 she may no longer be going in her cover given that she accomplished her goals. So we may never know.

See, this is the opinion that caused the FNDM to say there's no Faunus discrimination, despite extreme evidence to the contrary in RWBY.

Double posting because that was weird as hell and need to that post as-is for a bug report.

[up]x3 That's not an apt comparison. Faunus have been onscreen with humans and not on the receiving end of any discrimination far too frequently.

Faunus discrimination is also way more important to the plot than the details surrounding Cinder's enrollment, so it's more of a storytelling failure.
