Team Brothers (BTHS)
Alright so a little disclaimer. This is my first fanfiction ever. So, it may suck. There won't be an upload schedule. And who knows where I'll be going with this. I don't own Ruby, but I do own these characters now. Yay! They are loosely based of me and some good friends. All constructive criticism is welcomed. I am not a writer, but a guy doing this for fun. Anyway here are the backstories of my characters and how they ended up applying to Beacon.
Brendan Roe
Height: 6 feet 2 inches (187 cm)
Weight: 215 pounds (97.5 Kg)
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Light Blue
Weapons: Fire Sword/Sniper Rifle (Burnout), Holo Shield (in backstory)
Semblance: Shockwave
Motto: "Brains always beats brawn."
When Brendan was 13 his hometown of Gradele, in southern Atlas, was raided by Grimm. Much of Brendan's past is unknown. All that is known is that he is the sole survivor of that tragic day. When the rescue teams found him. He was missing his left arm and a chunk of the left side of his head and couldn't remember anything but his name. He was taken back to Atlas by Commander Ironwood, who offered him a choice. He could live a civilian life with one arm, or he could train to be a hunter and receive a new weaponized robotic arm and robotic eye.
After accepting Ironwood's deal. Brendan started to design his weapons. He knew that he wanted nothing flashy or technical to use. He thought about simple weapons with a twist. He immediately thought of a sword and shield. And he knew he needed something for range. The test facilities at Atlas were very generous to let him try our different ranged weapon types. He tried assault rifles, sub machine guns, heavy machine guns, chain guns, and more. None of them felt right in his hands until he picked up the sniper rifle and was instantly in love. He had his three weapons, but now he had to make them unique. He pondered what could be done with each weapon and decided on two things. He wanted to use dust and he needed a lightweight shield. And with those ideas he got to work.
After months of working and perfecting his weapon, its done. He holds the fire dust infused sword/sniper rifle in his hands and loves it. He affectionately names the weapon Burnout. The shield was a trickier matter. The solution was right in front of him the whole time, but couldn't see it until he opened a panel to do some maintenance on his robotic arm. And then it hit him. Put the shield in the arm itself. He asked the forge master how he could create a holoshield that would come out of his arm. They worked on large scale hollow projectors, trying to downsize them, for weeks. Until they finally cracked the code. Installing the projector into his arm, he was finally ready to uphold his end of the deal. He trained with the now General Ironwood intensively. While under the general's tutelage, Brendan found he had a knack for strategy and tactics. When his mentor asked him if he would join Atlas, Brendan politely declined saying that he wanted to become a Huntsman not a soldier. And while saying that, he sent an application to Beacon.
Teigen Berry
Height: 5 feet 6 inches (177 cm)
Weight: 147 pounds (66.7 Kg)
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Brown
Weapons: Twin Tonfa Blade/SMG's (Hidden Delight)
Semblance: Teleportation
Motto: "They can't hit what they can't see."
Teigen berry never knew about the world around him, and he didn't care either. It was just him and his older brother, Kidna, against the world. They would steal from wherever they could, whenever they could, they stole food, lien, clothes, and other small items. Teigen learned a lot while living like this. He learned that he had a way of getting under people's skin with his words. While Kidna was good at moving unnoticed. Teigen would anger the vendors while Kidna stole from them. Life was good for them. Until one day they got bold and careless.
They decided that they needed to arm themselves. And the only way they knew how was to steal some weapons from the local weapon smith. So Teigen went in to talk to the smith and distract him. A few moments later Kidna would sneak in and steal something good. The plan lasted about 5 minutes. What the two brothers didn't expect was the smith to be a retired huntsman. He caught onto what they were doing and acted immediately. He reached back and grabbed Kidna and made a grab for Teigen too. Teigen teleported away and his brother told him to run. Teigen grabbed the first set of weapons and ran. He ran right back to the abandoned shack the he and Kidna called a home. He waited for two days to see if his brother would return. And on the third day he knew his brother was gone.
Teigen knew that without his brother things would be much harder. He had no choices about what to do, all he had ever known required two people to pull of correctly. But there was something he could do. If he could pickpocket some people for their lien. He wouldn't have to do much work. He decided to go and try it. Unfortunately, his first choice was a man with black hair, red eyes, and a red cape. As soon as he reaches for the man's back pocket, the man grabs his wrist tightly. Teigen knows he has messed up and tried to flee, but the man was much faster than he seemed. Teigen revealed his blades hoping to scare the man off, to no avail. He and the man clashed and Teigen was easily defeated. But the man looked at him and said "Kid, you're gonna have to be better than that."
"I've had no training." Teigen replied.
"Really. Are you living on the streets?"
"Yes I am. It was me and my brother. Now it's just me."
"Interesting. Tell you what kid, I'll make you a deal."
And with those words Teigen's fate was sealed.

Hair: Black
Eyes: Green
Weapons: Chainsaw/Flamethrower (Chained Fury)
Semblance: Immovability
Motto: "I will stand where other won't, because I am the one who can stand it."
If Hunter had to describe his life in one word, that word would be boring. Don't get him wrong, he loves his life, his family, his friends, and his village. It's just that being the son of the villages only blacksmith makes for a boring life. And being as big and bulky as he is, not much of a choice for work. All Hunter wanted to do was to make his make on humanity. He wanted to make his family proud and leave his mark on history. But alas, fate was not kind enough to give him the opportunity. But his father always told him that adventure is just around the corner.
One day when his father had a cold. Hunter was told to go fetch some wood for the fire. What usually happened was that Hunter would watch the smith while his father would fetch the wood. But since his father was ill, Hunter would have to fetch the wood. Hunter grabbed the family chainsaw and headed out into the forest with the wood wagon. As he reached the first suitable tree he picked up the chainsaw and immediately noticed how good it felt in his hands. After a few hours of wood chopping, Hunter returned to the village. As he walked through the center of the village he noticed something was off. The village was empty, like completely empty. And then he felt it. Something staring at his back. He turned around and saw the biggest Ursa he had ever seen.
He had two options; fight or flee. As he pondered what he should do, the Ursa charges at him. He only had one choice and with that choice he grabbed the chainsaw and charged forward. As he was running toward the massive Ursa he had no idea what to do. Hunter figured he would just hit it, a lot. He swings his chainsaw from right to left and hits the Ursa directly in its bone skull. The Ursa bats him away with its powerful paw. Hunter gest bck up and rushes the Ursa again. He swings his saw and connects with the Grimm's shoulder. The Ursa roars in pain, not expecting to be hurt the creature looks back at the human with intent to kill. The Ursa then charges forward looking to ram Hunter. Hunter adjusts his stance ready to attack with his chainsaw. The Ursa and Hunter collide with a massive crash. Shocked to both Hunter and the Ursa, Hunter doesn't budge and inch. The Ursa climbs on its hind legs and roars to the heavens. Just as the roar is released Hunter jams the chainsaw into the now exposed underside of the Ursa and pulls up. The Ursa splits in two and falls to the ground, disintegrating.
After the fight the town rushes Hunter and call him a hero. He saved the town, he made his father proud, he would be remembered by all these people as their hero. And it felt good. No, it felt amazing. As the crowd was praising him, he heard someone say that he should be a hunter. Now that was an idea, and a good one too. He looked down at the chainsaw in his hands and thought about being a hunter. With the idea ingrained in his mind he decided. He would apply for Beacon, and maybe upgrade the chainsaw too.
Steven Piecho
Height: 6 feet 0 inches (182 cm)
Weight: 173 pounds (78.5 Kg)
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Brown
Weapons: Dust Infused Gauntlet and Full Auto Shotgun (Deadly Miracle) (Weapons work in tandem)
Semblance: Aura Recovery/Boost
Motto: "You break it, I fix it. I break it, it was in my way."
The Piecho family is a very well known medical family. They are famous throughout Remnant for inventing dust healing. Using dust for healing got the attention of the Schnee Dust Company where Jacques Schnee offered a partnership. The SDC would supply Piecho Inc. with the dust to create its medical supplies. And in return would take 30% of the profit. It was a deal that benefited both parties involved. The Piecho's became the fourth richest family in the world. Having all the money in the world might change many people. But not the Piechos. They moved into a small town called Mushang and immediately helped the town flourish. They gave to the community and the community welcomed them with open arms. The Piecho's had found a place to settle down and have a family.
Steven Piecho is the first-born son to the Piecho family. He was loved by his mother and father and both older sisters. Even from a young age Steven loved to help people. He went to school with the rest of his peers and learned humility and empathy. Most kids didn't see Steven the rich guy, instead they saw Steven the friend. Steven was always a brilliant child. We has a genius. He loved seeing how dust worked and what he could do to it. He tinkered and tried many different things. He found when you mixed certain dusts together you could create different effects. Such as mixing electricity and gravity dust creates a speed boost. Or how earth and ice could create a stamina boost. He was going to show these two his parents and maybe they could use them to help people.
The day he went to show his parents his new boosters, as he called them, would be a fateful day indeed. His parents were in a town hall meeting at roughly noon. He was going with his sister Mary and they were going to get ice cream while they waited. Then the Grimm attacked. They swarmed the city. But thanks to the Piecho's money, the town had many Huntsmen to defend the town. The attack was swiftly fought back and the town had suffer almost no damage. There were only two injuries and one of them was Mary Piecho. Steven watched as a Beowulf charged him and his sister. They started to run but the Grimm was faster. The Grimm caught up to the two and lunged at Mary scratching all over her back, piercing skin. As the Grimm was about to finish off his sister a Huntsman appeared wielding a full auto shotgun and mowed the Beowulf down to dust. After seeing what happened to his sister, Steven wanted that to never happen to anyone ever again. He went to the weapon shop and asked the owner if he had a Doomfist gauntlet and a Full Auto Shotgun. After buying the weapons Steven added a few features to his new weapons. He added many different types of dust and his boosters to the gauntlet. And he made it so what ever dust was currently being used in his gauntlet could also be transferred through the gauntlet into the shotgun, firing dust rounds. After what happened to his sister he was going to make sure he did all he could to help people. And it was then that he applied to Beacon.
