RWBY A Chance from God

by BelialGamingFF

Jaune expected to see Pyrrha waiting for him when he died in the fight against Salem. Not a young man dressed in casual clothes holding weapons and what looked like armor, telling him he could go back and have a second chance to save the world, at the cost of his memories. What idiot would miss that chance, especially with such cool weapons! JaunexPyrrha First story guys!

1. Overview

This is the overview for my new RWBY fanfic that will be released soon. It contains the differences that will be happening in the fanfic, along with the new Jaune, his weapons, armor, and semblance. It will also include his hobbies, and other skills. If this seems to OP don't read it, its my fanfic and my decisions so suck it up. RWBY is owned by Rooster Teeth, not me, sadly, if it was Pyrrha would still be alive, and with Jaune by now.

Weapons

Jaune's new weapon(s) are called Purity and Damnation. They are dual mechashift weapons, with 4 forms, and one technical sub-form. Each form has a dust crystal embedded in the weapon (one for Purity and one for Damnation). The dust crystal has been alchemically created by the most generous writer/god (Jaune: in his dreams Me: HEY I COULD GIVE YOU A STICK AS A WEAPON). The dust crystal can change to any dust element with a small thought and some aura. The dust crystal also has a limitless charge, just so the writer can do some Weiss bashing. Each weapon also has an aura generator/supplier for the dust crystal inside them, so the weapon does not require the user to constantly supply aura to keep the weapon elementally charged, but only this, any blade beams require aura to fire, among other things. Purity and Damnation are linked to Jaune by his aura, and will not let any other person use it without Jaune first deactivating this security feature. Anyone who tries to use Purity or Damnation without Jaune's consent will be sent flying from a burst of aura released from the weapon(s) itself/themselves. If Jaune were to die, Purity and Damnation would become useless to the world, along with anything else linked to his aura, as Jaune's soul gives the weapon life, and without that life the weapons no longer work. Purity and Damnation are crafted from materials found in multiple other dimensions (Me: Adamantite, Luminite, Australium, Meteor Ore, and others I can't remember, add your ideas if you wish), making the weapons near impossible to destroy or damage. In addition to this, each weapon is partially infused with some of Jaune's aura, making them keep a permanent edge and give them the ability of plot armor (XD im pretty sure jaune's semblance is plot armor anyway but whatever). Purity's color scheme is a base pure-white with gold engraving, and a gold metal Arc family crest located in different spots depending on the current form, Purity is a right-hand weapon. Damnation's engraving design is a mirror image of Purity's (flipped to make the two appear symmetrical), with a color scheme of pitch-black base and red engraving, with a crimson colored metal for the Arc family crest located in different locations depending on the current form. Damnation is a left-hand weapon.

Purity and Damnation Forms

Form 1 is a hand cannon/revolver form, acting as Jaune's form of ranged combat. The weapon style is that of a Smith and Wesson 500 Magnum with a bigger barrel that extends downwards to make the barrel appear bigger and bulkier, and allow attachments (grenade launchers, flashlights, etc.). The guns are modified to take special 50. Caliber rounds meant for heavy caliber sniper rifles like Ruby's sniper scythe Crescent Rose. Above the trigger is a small toggle switch similar to that of an AR rifle safety switch. The switch toggles through 4 different modes, safety, regular (which is the only mode that allows for elements so Jaune is not completely op), an armor piercing mode for tougher enemies, and an explosive mode for groups of small enemies. The grips of each weapon also have a reinforced bottom to allow for extra damage when pistol whipping.

Form 2 is a combat knife form. The weapon style is a mix of military combat and bowie/hunting edge. This mode is meant for Jaune to attack with quick strikes and retreat in a hit-and-run style, or a stealthy approach to a problem. As the blades of the knives are roughly 7.5 inches, making them big enough to be used when blocking a slash from a short sword but small enough that with enough skill, can be snuck past guards or other individuals, in other words, act as a concealed weapon. The knives are also weighted in such a way that the knives can be thrown, throwing knife style, if enough skill is present. As the weapons are linked to Jaune's aura, so when Jaune throws the knives, they will, using special powers granted by the writer because he can't think of any other way around this, fly back to Jaune.

Form 3 is a short sword form, and the form that Jaune usually carries them around in and feels most comfortable with. The weapon style is a 15-inch-long norse style, double edged, straight blade, with a small groove running down the center. Purity has angel wings as a cross guard and a cross for a pommel. Damnation has devil claws as a cross guard and a regular rounded pommel with a ribbon shaped and colored like Hell fire attached to it. This form also includes the sub-form in the shape of a shield for Jaune to use, Jaune can transform one or both his short swords into kite shields. The shield designs are the same as Crocea Mors' sheath shield, just with Purity's and Damnation's color schemes respectively. The blades are wide enough, that with good reaction time can be used to stop bullets connecting. The short swords allow for better each than form 2 with less speed and less control over the blades. Each blade can release a small wave of pure or elementally enhanced (via the dust crystal) aura as an attack or to deflect or slow down charging opponents/enemies. The wave reaches roughly three feet away from the blades tip when extended as far as it can go.

Form 4 is the only from of Purity and Damnation that is a single weapon form. The form 3 short swords mechashift together to form a two-handed single edge curved blade katana. The length of blade can change depending on Jaune's choice, ranging anywhere from 23 to 28 inches. If Jaune needs more range, at the cost of speed and control, he can make the blade longer. If Jaune needs more speed and control over range, he can shorten the blade. At the cost of defence, some speed, and even less manoeuvrability, this form is meant for more attack than other forms, mostly heavy attacks. Aura "blade beams", as I call them (play RWBY Grimm Eclipse and use Blake to understand what I mean by that), can be fired from the blade, either made of pure or elemental aura. The blade beams reach about 10 feet before dissipating. This form is also the only form in which Jaune can use the offensive portion of his new semblance, which is explained later.

Armor

Jaune's new armor is far different from his plate armor in the original RWBY series. It offers far more coverage protection, and probably more protection, than his original armor. His new armor consists of an armored duster, black dust weaved jeans, a white undershirt just because, black combat boots with white highlighting, fingerless black gloves, and a special metal face mask. The duster is made of Grimm Dragon leather (once again the writer decides to play god) devoid of its grimm spawning ability (so Jaune does not bring an army of grimm wherever he goes). Along with the already tough grimm leather is metal plates made from a light weight version of the metal used in Purity and Damnation. The plates are located on the shoulders, biceps, forearms, sides, and the small of the back. The same metal is weaved into the leather of the lower half of the duster (the part that usually flows in the wind in every iconic stereotypical movie where the hero wears a duster) to give protection without taking away from the aesthetics. The plates can extend to connect to each other to give full protection of the arms, sides, back, and shoulders. This extended armor limits the range of movement ever so slightly (if Jaune could just barely reach the small of his back he can't now, but front movement is not hindered at all). The very front of the duster is unarmored and left open as inside the duster are hidden inside pockets, usually meant to hold vials of dust, or extra ammo, among other things. The combat boots have spikes/teeth in the bottom that can retract or jut out to stop sliding or grip slippery surfaces (Me: the new Jaune calls his boots Toothles because he once joined me on a trip to another universe New Jaune: *blushing* HEY NO I DON'T). Jaune's face mask is a simple face mask with dust strengthened glass for eye holes (for design think of the mask on the zombie clown Tricky from Madness Combat, just with glass covered eye holes). The mask can change Jaune's vision (through the mask not his actual vision permanently, I totally didn't think that's how night vision goggles worked in real life, heh… heh… please don't laugh at me). It can toggle through four different vision modes, regular, plain and simple, night vision, for nocturnal missions or navigating Beacon to steal food at night, thermal vision, to see body heat even through walls or to check if Nora's pancakes are finished cooking the proper way (Jaune: wish I had that in the original RWBY universe, I tried cooking Nora pancakes and messed up the texture apparently, she is scary when angry over pancakes *shudders*). The final vision is a special vision that can bring up information on whatever Jaune focusses on, weapons (materials, crafting style, different modes, etc.), plants (species, uses, etc.), or other people (basic info available about a person). Each mode also changes the eye color of the mask, regular vision is an ocean blue, night vision is an acid green, thermal vision is a blood red, and info vision (as I dubbed it) is a deep black. The face mask is colored somewhere between grey and black, with red edges for intimidation factors.

Aura and Semblance

In the original RWBY anime, Jaune only gets his aura unlocked by Pyrrha in initiation. In my universe, Jaune gets his aura unlocked very young, and gets much longer to train and use it, longer than most huntsman his age when he enters Beacon. Jaune's new semblance is called Arc's Gifts, and comes in three separate portions, an offensive portion, a defensive portion, and a passive (always there) portion. The offensive portion, as mention before, can only be used when Jaune is using the fourth form of Purity and Damnation. This ability involves storing up large amounts of aura in a weapon while retaining control of said aura, then releasing all the aura in one tidal wave of power, causing massive destruction, and damage to anyone caught in the wave. The attack drains Jaune of about half his aura however, by the time he reaches Beacon. The defensive portion of the semblance is a near unbreakable aura wall that Jaune can put up. The downside is it consumes aura faster than a simple aura shield, takes a few seconds for Jaune to focus the aura needed and put up the shield, and when Jaune has the shield up he is completely immobile. Finally, the passive portion of Jaune's semblance is an increased healing factor and faster aura regeneration. Jaune's aura heals wounds far quicker than most, and it takes far less aura to do so. This healing factor also transfers to any aura Jaune is using to heal someone, but the person being healed does not retain this after Jaune heals them. The increased aura regeneration rate is just a needed requirement for Jaune due to his massive aura reserves, a regular huntsman has about half the aura of Jaune, so where a huntsman might take a day to fully recharge his/her completely depleted aura, Jaune would take two days, but since Jaune has the faster aura regen. rate it would only take a couple hours of rest to fully replenish, OP yes, do I care NO.
