Act 1 of the Emperor's Prophecy Saga: the most wanted criminals in Atlas have been sent to Beacon Academy under the watchful eye of Ozpin. But is all as it seems? What alliances are happening in the background? Who is under the mask of the Fanatic? And what will happen when Destiny arrives?

Throughout time, many men and women have raised up against the darkness that has plagued the world, while others have made a name for themselves as traitors to their race. Some have immortalized their names in history, and others are forgotten, as well as their deeds. These, are the Champions of Remnant.

A prequel for my future story 'Scorned of Beacon': The eight barons of the Scorn are notorious criminals and monsters. But what if they weren't born into the world of Destiny, but instead, one of bloody evolution. Will these eight emerge as heroes in this world, or is it their destiny (Yang approves) to be criminals?
