A mixture of light and shadows. That's what everyone, including her parents call her. She's the daughter of two well established Huntresses, her auntie was in charge of one of the biggest companies on Remnant, her other auntie like her mother's was an accomplished huntress that wielded a deathly mechanical scythe. She burned hotter than the sun but has the ability to easily blend into the shadows, the only difference between her and her parents. She was a wolf Faunus, no one can explain it but aside from that minor detail she was an exact combination of the Yin and Yang couple. Bright yellow eyes, black short hair, a temper like her mother as well as her bright colour scheme, her mother's bladed weapon preference, she took her fiery mothers height and often teased her older brother who took his cool, calm mother's height. She was 17 years old and a talented fighter, a fighter her parents were proud of. Then again, they were proud of both of their kids. Her brother was training to be a huntsman alongside herself. She was enrolling at Beacon Academy along with her brother, like their parents before them. Her name? Her name was Blaze Xiao-Long Belladonna, the daughter of Yang Xiao Long and Blake Belladonna.

Her semblance was an odd one to say the least, it seemed she inherited her Grandpa's abilities combined with her mother's destructive semblance. It was called Supersonic Howl, when she got angry she almost turns into a werewolf, when she howls…it blows her enemies far and hard as well as destroying her surroundings. It was fair to say, her parents did not enjoy the day she discovered her semblance or training her to control that semblance. Thankfully, her Grandad Tai and her mother managed to teach her to only use her semblance as a fall back and to always keep a level head. Her mother told her the dangers of rushing in without thinking, using her arm as the primary example when she rushed in to save her mom. This of course taught Blaze that strategy was key, her whole family pitched in to help her and her brother train and practise. Her aunt Weiss taught her the perfect form for fighting, her aunt Ruby taught her how to move fast, her mom taught her stealth, her Grandad Tai and her mother taught her self-control, her Grandpa taught her how to use an opponent's strength against them and her Grandma taught her how to use household items to fight as well as asking for help when needed.

Her brother was taught similar skills and tactics when he was growing up, he was now a second year, he was a heartbreaker like their mother, Shadow Xiao Long Belladonna. He was a member of team JSPR (Jasper), the other three of his teammates were from different parts of the world Jae Byzz was their leader, a fox Faunus from Mistral, Percy Razz was from Atlas and finally Robin Ceila was from Vale. Shadow was fond of his female teammates and got on well with all of them, despite the fact that he liked to flirt with them playfully, often being told off by his mom and cheered on by his mother, which in turn earned her a slap on the arm by her wife. Since, Blaze was about to join her brother at Beacon, he was asked by his parents to watch out for his little sister, which Blaze was annoyed about but then again, Shadow has been protective of his little sister, broke several boys and girls bones for looking at her the wrong way, not entirely believing that they were related since Shadow didn't have any Faunus traits even though their colour scheme was practically the same. Other than that, Blaze didn't have any other relatives, Aunt Ruby and Weiss were waiting a few extra months to start a family, they thought about adopting a couple of Faunus kids and give them a better life which brought her mom to tears. Both of her mom's in fact, though her mother wouldn't admit to it. Her Grand mom Raven, came in every now and then but it wasn't often, her mother was happy at the fact that she would visit her grandkids in person but still pissed off about that fact that she never done it often, but Blake had convinced her that she often saw a Raven looking at Blaze whenever she was outside, which was true. Raven, always had a funny way of showing that she cared about someone. Her uncle Qrow much to everyone's dismay taught Blaze and Shadow a few things about life that he maybe shouldn't of. Including the talk…which made everyone uncomfortable, her mother even more so when he used Yang as the main subject of the conversation, detailing how she was conceived. That being said, he was drunk to a point where he couldn't stand, let alone speak so, a lot of things came out of his mouth. It was then that their mom sent them to their room so that the adults could deal with the drunken Huntsman. They haven't spoken about that since. No one dares to bring it up either.

Blaze grew up in Patch and attended Signal academy, same as her mother and her aunt. She was taught by her granddad and her uncle Qrow, it was here that she developed her weapon: Solas Sgàil. It was a combination of her parent's weapons, gauntlets like her mother but instead of shooting shotgun shells, she had extendable blades that could be fired as well as simple dust ammunition. It took after her colour scheme, black gauntlets with golden blades, they also had her symbol: The Yin and Yang, which ironically enough, was how her mother asked her mom to marry her. Part of her is thankful that she didn't develop her mother's sense of humour and that her brother got it but at the same time it was simply genius, because that's what they were: Yin and Yang. Blaze's name was odd, since when she was born she looked almost exactly like her mom but she soon found out that she got her name when she started crying and was extremely hot, her mother had to handle her, hence the name Blaze. Shadow on the other hand got his name because of the jet black hair that he had when he was born plus the brightest lilac eyes anyone had ever seen. He was brighter than Blaze, ironically enough; he wore a lot of gold and funnily enough blue: an unlikely combination. No one really questions it though. Her fighting style was her own a mix of martial arts and fencing, her brother was a kick boxer with the agility of a ninja. Her brother's symbol was one that everyone looked at with a bit of controversy; it was a dragon with claw marks diagonally across its face. It looked similar to the White Fang's old symbol, when asked about it, he simply said 'a dragon is beautiful but has been injured by a beast' their parents were shocked as to how similar their kids symbols were to their own stories. But their symbols came from the heart, not their heads. Shadow was the troublemaker of the family and Blaze preferred to draw, write and read but that didn't mean to say she didn't enjoy a party. One year when her parents had went on a mission and entrusted the two newly turned 17 and 18 year old to behave…big mistake. They threw a party and they discovered Blaze has a higher alcohol level than Shadow, drinking two times more than him and only feeling tipsy whereas he had passed out. Her parents never found out and will never find out.

All Blaze was focused on was becoming a Huntress, even though she didn't know of the upcoming threat.
