Although taken in by Raven and her Tribe as a kid, Jaune never saw eye to eye with the Spring Maiden, for both practical and moral reasons. When Raven sends him to Beacon to spy on Ozpin, Qrow, and Yang, Jaune must decide what lines he is willing to cross in order to become his own master. What good is being a better person than Raven if you're too weak to break free from her?

When quirks appeared, humanity dealt with the greatest power shift it had seen in millennia. The sudden change gave women powers never seen before, but men were left behind. It was an age of heroes. Now 200 years later, the rest of humanity began to catch up... and it all started with a man gifted with Total Command over every function of his body.

Yander Harem. Jaune only wanted a few things in his life. To be a hunter, find a girlfriend and make his family e last thing he ever wanted was for a last-second impulse buy to grant him the ability to make a harem for himself! Nor did he expect that the thing that once was a gateway to his dreams would become a key to his nightmares as Jaune learns the horror of young love

Jaune hasn't had a home since he lost his friends, not since the world truly fell apart. But when he enters into a curious arrangement with Remnant's most dangerous artist, only time will tell if he's ready to find a new one.

The System awakes, and so does Jaune Arc. Of course, one is awakening from an eons long slumber and the other went to bed too late the night before and slept in far too long. The System adjusts to a methodology suitable for a teenage boy, and as such accidentally invokes the god-given right of living a video game. Jaune's in for a wild ride.

Inspired by Coeur Al'Aran's Professor Arc story, this asks the simple question: What if Jaune had actually attended the Vacuo Academy for Gifted Youths as he claimed? Between a fake resume, a sociopath for a partner, criminal contacts, White Fang agents, and overall bad luck... it's going to take everything he's got keep his cover at Beacon.

Ten thousand years, the Tower has lain without an Overlord. Ten millennia, the world had known relative peace, aside from the random creatures of Grimm wandering the land and a few other lesser evils, like Salem. Ten thousand years of waiting for a new Overlord to come, and bathe the world in true darkness. Ten thousand years of... Absolute boredom driving Gnarl mad!

All Deacon Lex had wanted in life was a loving wife and maybe a pet. He would happily serve the gods in peace. Imagine his surprise when he is chosen as Prophet and sent on a mission to ancient Lordran. With a knight of Astora at his side, will he save the world - or will he settle for being a witch's plaything?

Dr. Merlot could be described with three words: Insane, Brilliant and very Dead. However just because the creator was dead didn't mean that his creations would share the same fate. A victim of chance Jaune Arc becomes the subject of an experiment meant to test out one of the Doctors creations. But maybe this is a Blessing in Disguise.

Yang just wanted to be a better friend to Jaune and help cheer him up, but one thing led to another. That one night together was all it took for them to see a different side of each other. Sides seldom seen... but they're still just friends. Yang is definitely not noticing the dork more and Jaune is certainly not falling for another girl. It's just some clean release. Nothing more.

"Stuck repeating everyday? Bored out of your mind? With only your friends along for the ride? Why, it's just like school! Of course, the Infinite Loops are a lot more fun then Beacon Academy, as Ruby Rose is about to find out. Part of the Infinite Loops project.

A song can say a variety of things. Especially about the affairs of the heart. Whether it be a declaration of love or for the search for closure. Watch as Jaune Arc uses both with many of Remnant's fair maidens. (Series of one-shots. Should go without saying but I DO NOT own any of the songs in this fic.) (Coverart by Khor Evik Vlakhavlakh)

Everyone knows that there are four hunter academies in Remnant right? Well that's not entirely true. You see there are acutely five hunter academies in remnant, Shade, Beacon, Haven, Atlas academy and Bastion. Now you've r heard of Bastion for a good reason. You never, under any and all circumstances want to go there. But that's just were a reaper and a knight are sentenced to die.

An ordinary life as a bartender was all Jaune expected out of his meager existence. Mixing cocktails and listening to the woes of those who needed an ear were the staples of his night. However, while stumbling down the wrong alleyway our protagonist is thrust into a situation where he'll have to face the things that go bump in the night. Welcome to the Midnight World Mr. Arc.

Somehow stuck in dark souls, Kaylen, Oscar and loads more characters go on an incredible journey to change the destiny of the chosen undead. Lost Izalith will become found Izalith, mushroom men will attack and Priscilla's tail will be fondled. Warning: Be prepared to joy puke your face off.

Jaune had always wanted to go to a school to learn to battle the creatures of Grimm. But as a boy with no huntsmen training, no huntsmen knowledge, and no huntsmen transcripts, he had absolutely no chance of getting into a school like that legally. After scouring the darkest corners of the CCTNet, he finally found a lead. A place called Grimm Academy. Cover art by RKS-Kogiro.

Yang and Jaune both are people who have suffered pain and loss, can two friends help each other to heal the scars of the past? Maybe along the way also find something between them that will lead them to rethinking their relationship as simply friends to something more? (Takes place right after Season 5) Yang/Jaune, Nora/Ren, Blake/Sun with some Ruby/Oscar and other pairings.

A year. A whole year in the lab, mixing dust and building her machine. A machine that could bend time. And Ruby decided to test it on herself. What she found on the other side was something she wasn't ever expecting to find out. Her mother.

A huntsman- Thats all Jaune ever wanted to be. A hero like his ancestors. It didn’t really matter that he didn’t have any strength, smarts or skills to speak of, right? Not really no, he could change all that with the tap of a button and a little hard work. And once he was strong enough, he’d show his enemies that there’s a reason why you should fear the spirit of vengeance.

Jaune Arc always wanted to be remembered. Doing his best to avoid any sort of violent confrontation, Jaune strove to be someone important, a hero. That is until one day a hooded girl with silver eyes rescues him from the beating of his life time. Now she wants him to train to become a mixed martial artist? What!

Ruby's life had never been easy, but it had always been simple. As a faunus slave, all she had to do was to follow orders from humans and hope for the best. When she meets her new owner, however, things get a little more complicated. She just hopes it will end up being a change for better.

The war has torn Remnant apart. The Hunters have failed and Grimms now lay siege to the city. Everyone we know and love are gone. But there was still a chance to set this right. A chance to change things... for better or for worse. And sadly, the only candidate left was the weakest among them. But perhaps... it was enough. Fan art by Keji Springfield!

So you find yourself in an environment considered hostile even on a world full of monsters. What do you do? Try to survive, of course. And if you manage to do that? Well, then things can change...

Rejected from Beacon, Jaune gets an offer to take a new path into the unknown world of the supernatural, and quickly learns that grimm aren't the only creatures that stalk the night. It might not be what he wanted, but if it means keeping his dream alive, he can adapt. After all, dealing in magic can't be any harder than being a huntsman.

Ruby was the purest soul on Remnant. An adorable wolf faunus destined for great things. Unfortunately fate decided to be cruel. After 11 years, all they found is a broken girl with skills honed for one thing. Killing. Rated T mainly for violence, There is some foul language and other minor adult content.

Remnant never knew what true horror was until demons more terrifying than the Grimm arrived, seeking to conquer a world they think belongs to them. Nor the limits a warrior stripped of his humanity would push himself, and others, to exterminate the Slaves of Doom and their mortal allies. His path of perpetual torment continues and this time he will no longer be walking it alone...

Jaune's Semblance has activated and he is about to restart his life, long ago helost track of how many lives he has lived. Though this trip proves to be different, for the first time ever someone has gone back with him. Jaune for the first time is not alone as he prepares to face off against Cinder and her allies with Yang at his back does he finally have a real chance?

After his mother's death, the life of Jaune Soleil Arc takes a turn for the twisted darkness. How will an Arc shine, when he's made of darkness itself? A heart of gold under a layer of coldness: what will happen when he will have to fight for the ones he loves and protects? A journey through acceptance, redemption and maybe, just maybe, even love.

In a life-or-death moment, Ruby Rose frees a Demon from the necklace her mother gave her. He would've been immediately shot down, but Ozpin saw it as a chance to fulfil some weird ancient legend. Now she is burdened to keep an eye on him, find four Relics, and save the world. How is that fair?

Every marker has a choice. Every choice sets a whole new adventure for us to travel. That is what Jaune is to expect as a single question will send him on many different paths each with its own outcome, with love, loss, and victory that comes from a hero's journey. To think that all this would come from a simple question. Who'll come with him on a mission?

Gaining the knowledge and life of an unknown being from ancient time. Is this a blessing or a curse? Jaune will have to find out if it worth having, even if it means changing his dream as a Hero.

Death was never a pleasant thing, not the first time not the second time and not the three thousandth time. Jaune had lost count of the number of times he was "sent back" sent back to save the world to save everything but fate is not always kind. And after a while, the benefactors of his that keep him in the fight decide to send him back with a bit of a twist to make things, lively

On their trip to Mistral, RNJR comes across an unexpected person, Cinder Fall. Cinder claims to be Pyrrha, who has somehow taken possession of the body of her murderer. Some of RNJR is accepting of Cinder really being Pyrrha, while others remain skeptical. Is this really Pyrrha? Or is it just a ploy by Salem? How will this change Canon? Co-authored by Engineer1869.

What's the line between love and obsession? Once you've broken, can you fix what's left inside? Ruby Rose never meant to kill Roman Torchwick - at least, that's what she tells the mysterious girl who haunts her dreams. Neo has other ideas. Dark Soulbond AU. Multiple ships. Three complete novels, with a fourth in progress. Beta'd by Vixie.

Despite the common belief, Grimm aren't the only monsters that scour the world of Remnant. Mortals beware, for you are no longer safe. They wander and roam in search of victims. The dead will dance, all of hell shall sing and the vampires will take walks because someone couldn't bother hooking up some damned DSL.

Blake is in trouble. As the only member of Team RWBY still in Beacon for the break, she is tasked with her hardest and most dangerous mission to date. Dog-sitting Zwei.

Blake is on a boat returning home, when she notices a cloaked figure on one of the decks watching her. Who could it be? White Fang? Adam? Sun? Nope! Seems like a certain knight didn't join up with Ruby and the others, and has instead been traveling on his own. But he's not exactly the same goofy guy Blake remembers from before the Fall.

The Grimm have been the predators of Humankind and Faunus since the dawn of time. The Dust has only halted the tide, but has not pushed it back. Jaune Arc discovers his Semblance in his hour of need, and the Grimm will learn to fear their new predator. Yet, he must overcome the madness within his Semblance, lest he become one of those he hunts... AU. Jxmultiple. Cover by Aedevel

Its all fun and games until everything becomes real. Noah knew that, but it didn't really sink with him until he ended up in Undertale, a world where everything can be erased at the whims of a child. Now, stuck with no way home, and his only companion being a Human Hating Angry Child and a little Cinnamon Bun that couldn't see or hear him, Noah curses his life with every word.

So when messing with a dust experiment, RWBY and JNPR are transported to Earth, only to encounter an eccentric, occassionally drunk fanfiction writer. What will happen? Will the writer retain his sanity? Self insert, Drunken fic OC/Winter I don't own RWBY. If I did, I wouldn't be writing fanfiction. Cover by Kegi Springfield. HIATUS

After Jaune finds himself stranded on an island mostly undiscovered to humanity, he gets roped into some unfortunate adventures of a few of its weirdest inhabitants, and he must earn their trust to help him get home, preferably in one piece. -A harem, monster girl AU- -NOT smut, but a little perverted, and even some fluff!-

Qrow is aggravating. Jaune thinks so. Winter thinks so. A strange agreement that leads them down a surprisingly long path. It's not a particularly easy path, but one ultimately worth traveling down. Especially together. Rated Teen for Teen stuff, and the fact I think Qrow swears in his head.

Beacon is reclaimed several years after it fell. Now Jaune Arc and Ruby Rose contemplate warmer memories they shared when they were still students here, straining to find a little comfort in the past knowing how jaded they are in the present. [Future AU]

A terrible future. One in which no one wants to live in. Especially Jaune Arc. Robbed of his family, his loved ones, his future, he takes a once in a lifetime chance to go back to a past where he can gain everything he desires and stop the horrors that were fated to happen. Guided by a sentient crystal and a will to live, Jaune will suffice in creating a new era. That he promises.

What is life except for a puzzle, a riddle, a test, a mystery, a game — whatever challenge you wish to compare it to. But with everything in life, there are things that affect your life with choices or events that are out of your control. What can the cast of RWBY see when they throw the dice and see what kind of life that their blond knight can, will, or has lived?

Just when Jaune Arc lost all hope at the Vital invasion and during Pyrrha's death he makes a wish to go back to the past and stop the invasion from happening. He never realize how far in the past he was going to go. Strong Jaune through slow development Archarem confirmed Jaune/Pyrrha/Ruby/Yang.

He took pity on her, and decided to take her in off of the streets. Being her knight in shining armor wasn't something he planned on. Rated T for now.

Jaune Arc hated dying. This is an odd state of being for one to state they hated, as dying happens only but once. Twice maybe if you're lucky. Then again, you aren't the universe's chew toy either... Jaune x Harem. Rated M for swearing, gore, sexual themes and terrible jokes.

His father was known as King Nicholas The Great. Jaune Arc, heir to the throne, takes power after his father's death in battle. But what will be waiting in the new world for his royal majesty? Jaune Arc, King of Vale will navigate through politics, war, and love, all to become the one king to rule them all! (Medieval AU)

War gives birth to weapons. Some of them marvelous and others horrifying. Some say soldiers are the best. Others would disagree. Sadly the students of Beacon are about to learn sometimes the best weapons aren't the ones you can fire or swing. Sometimes they're the ones you can't touch or even expect. Like a friend... or a virus.

Shouldering a burden can take a toll on a man. Especially when he feels isolated and responsible for what happened. Nora has been watching Jaune for a while now and she can see the pain in his eyes. Will she be able to help him? Will anyone else attempt to help as well? Will Jaune even accept it or will the darkness in his heart consume him and drive him to do something rash?

Before they have a chance to celebrate their success in defending Vale from the Breach, RWBY, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren find themselves in the Archive, a vast multiverse library complex. There they will watch their friend Jaune in a variety of situations. Set between V2 and V3. Inspired by JC of the Corn's "Endless Possibilities." Chapter(s) 34 is up.

In the early days of Beacon Academy Jaune Arc awakens his semblance seemingly by chance. Gifted with the power to stop time itself, rather than grow to become the hero he dreamed to be, he finds his attention being drawn to other, more pleasurable pursuits. Save the world and live up to his family name? Yea, sure, whatever. But let's see if it can get him a girlfriend first. Or six

Every family has its odd member, the one that doesn't fit. Jaune was just that, the black sheep. He had always wanted to be the hero, to be a Huntsman. But when your name is Jaune Salem Arc - Prince of the Grimm - and your mother is understandably against the idea, what is a young man to do? Why, run away to attend Beacon in pursuit of a dream, of course. What could go wrong?

For the past 11 years, Summer Rose was missing and presumed dead after a fateful mission. Alone, locked away to see her daughter again, away from her family, she was giving up hope... Unless a familiar face comes along. Rated T. Ladybug and bits of Freezerburn. Suggestions for RWBY Chibi is up. (Very Slow Updates)

In the world of Remnant, Dragon Riders are all that stand between civilians and the creatures of Grimm. During a time when the rights of dragons are still in question, illegal hybrids are being bred for shady purposes, and a rise in egg thefts has been reported, the new students at Beacon Dragonry will have their hands full simply keeping their partners safe. (DISCONTINUED)

Jaune may have lucked out on this. Before Roman robbed Dust Till Dawn. Ruby split into Three girls. now we have Ruby, Kelly and Ashen Rose (No OCs. Kelly and Ashen are exactly like Ruby). Lancaster with more than one Ruby. PreparedJaune! MultipleRubys!

Falling in love is easy for everyone. Falling in love with a famous band member? Still easy. But befriending them and hoping they'd return her feelings? Nope. Not easy. Yang never takes it the easy way, though. So, if there's a line between being a fan and a girlfriend, then she's going to break it! (Band AU - Fangirl Yang/Ruby - Musician Blake/Weiss)

Despite some uniquities, Jaune's life had always been rather normal and he wasn't against that, but he had always dreamed big of living up to his ancestors and even parents' heroics. And thus he set out, bent on following through with his dream, though little did he expect exactly how much he'd miss that normalcy as it gets extinguished in nothing short of the strangest of manners.

After losing his wife to a mysterious illness, widower Jaune struggles to find solace as he is left alone to raise his daughter as a single parent. It is a story of family, loss, hope, love, healing, regret, and forgiveness in this journey as Jaune tries to live through life without his wife. Then, he reacquaints with an old classmate who changes his life and then some. {AU}

They weren't lovers. They certainly weren't friends. At best, they qualified as acquaintances. However, one crazy night changes all of that. Pretending it didn't happen would have been the smart choice. Unfortunately, neither Blake nor Jaune is all that good at making smart choices.

[Now dropped. Only here for reference until I finish my new project.]

One day, a young student of Signal Academy receives a package from home, containing the journal of a long dead relative. But what is Jaune Arc going to do with said journal, and how will it change not only his world, but that of those around him?

Jaune Arc cheats his way into Beacon, but in a karmic event he becomes The head of Beacon's IT department instead! A collection of emails, logs, green texts and other electronic recordings depicting Jaune's struggles with trying to deal with the tech problems of the students and staff of beacon. Inspired by the Green Text "Anon works IT" and the Tumblr Series "The IT Wizard."

(Real world) Ruby and Yang get the chance to spend some time with a relative they haven't seen in a while, their cousin Jaune for spring break. He takes them to a lake to have fun together alone, but Ruby eventually discovers what exactly the kind of relationship Yang and Jaune have had for a while. Making her wonder, will she be apart of it?

He hadn't gone to combat school; he hadn't even taken an entrance exam. But Jaune Arc figured if he could at least make it past Beacon Academy's initiation, then he might just have what it takes to become a huntsman. And in a sense... he's right. The little training he received from his sister may just be enough.

In his final moments of life, Jaune realizes the truth. Now, back where it all began, he has to relive his whole life with the illusion shattered. COMPLETED.

What if, when you died, you just... woke up that same morning? What would you do? What would you change? Jaune Arc is trying to answer that same question. But some things are out of even his control. Inspired by, and drawing heavily from Live, Die, Repeat and Not This Time, Fate, this is yet another "Groundhog Day" type of fic.

When Ruby runs into her crush, Blake, at a costume party, her anonymity and a little bit of alcohol give her the confidence she needs to make a move. (blake with a D, PWP one-shot, by commission)

"Do you believe in destiny?" "Yes. I do believe in destiny if only so that I can stab it in the face."

Two blondes. One joke battle. One thousand lien on the line. Let the battle... begin! (Edited - 12/19/18)

"All the Remnant's a stage, and all the men and women merely players, merely pieces on the board, each and every one of them guided by hands unseen. And as they play their parts, they'll soon come to learn that true darkness resides not just behind the soulless eyes of the Grimm, but also within the hearts of men and women not too dissimilar to you and me."

Receiving a letter from a dead person proved very unnerving for Jaune. Despite the constant warning signs of it either being a trap or a sick prank, he set out for answers. After reaching the sketchy address mentioned in the letter, Jaune found himself standing outside of a lonely apartment complex filled with people who aren't quite alive nor truly dead.

Blake Belladonna always believed in reincarnation. Even more so after receiving a belladonna flower on her thirteenth birthday, proving that is true as she finds out about her previous lives...and while each one is more different than the last, one thing is common: there's a girl with silver eyes always by her side. (Ladybug Week submission)

There are worse things than the Grimm that live among the people of Remnant. Things that prey on the innocent in the dark of night. A chance encounter with a such a creature rips Jaune's humanity from him. When monsters guise themselves as humans and faunus, who can he trust?

Life couldn't have gotten worse for Jaune. After getting kicked out of Beacon for his fake transcripts, he just wanted to drink to forget it. Too bad he couldn't remember anything afterwards and woke up in bed with that dark-skinned beauty he met at the bar. Rated M for obvious reasons

Ruby won. She killed Salem, wiped out the Grimm, obtained all four relics and inherited all the maiden powers. But their's no point in having the power of a god if no one is left to share it with. As punishment for letting the world come to an end, the gods of creation and destruction send her back in time to drown in her failures for all eternity.

Ruby is a neurotic prodigy who thought Beacon would teach her to kill Grimm. Instead, she's dropped into a world of schemes and secrets. Hopefully she'll figure things out before anyone's agenda catches up with her.

Chara woke up, not in their room, but on a bed of golden flowers down in the Pit. There's a human child sitting next to them, so this obviously could only mean one thing: Human invasion. So, they'll just murder the child, go home and make sure mum, dad, and Asriel are all okay. It's not like they woke up years in the future where they've been dead the whole time, right? [Charisk]

For some people traveling was a vacation. For Amber, it was her life. Always on the move, never able to settle down, life as the Fall Maiden was difficult and lonely. Still, it wasn't all bad. She got to see the world, experience new things, and you never knew what interesting things you could find on the side of the road.

The most minor changes to history can have massive ramifications. In a world without the Great War, where Faunus are still second class citizens, Velvet Scarlatina struggles to find her place in the world.

There are many paths in life, some that are set in stone and some that are in a state of flux...then there are the ones that defy the course of fate. This is one such path, where the course of destiny is defied and the path of a Knight is forged in blood, steel, and magic. This is the Rise of the Remnant Knight.

Oscar didn't know what to expect when he walked up to the red hooded girl, but it wasn't this. Blind/Bookstore AU. Rosegarden Week Day 4: Touch

AU. In a world where humanity is on the brink of extinction in the face of the Grimm, the kingdom of Vale has resorted to arranged marriages between its strongest citizens, hoping against hope that a miracle hero will be born. In a romance initiated without free choice, is it even possible to find happiness? Lancaster

Summer and Ruby were in a car accident, but one didn't make it out alive. Qrow is left with a daughter he never got the chance to know and one more opportunity not to mess everything in his life up (again). The kicker is, Ruby has no idea that her new caretaker is actually her father. How will the two of them ever learn to live with each other in Summer's absence.

Ruby is born with an unusual and dangerous power: the power to summon Grimm. Sheltered, shy, and carefully watched, Ruby is suddenly invited to join Beacon Academy. With the awful potential her power carries and a disturbing deformity that could out her to her peers, Ruby is tested in protecting the humanity of Remnant while keeping a dangerous secret. - AU, sorta follows canon.

Jaune is a Huntsman, sworn to protect the religious, fearful town of Vale from Grimm and all other creatures of the night. Pyrrha is a werewolf alpha who is expected to one day become the leader of her pack. Nature has made them enemies. Fate has decided that they must work together in order to save both of their homes from destruction. (Cover art by Nicodemus Tibbitts.)

Jaune once had the desire of becoming a hero. While that desire still remained, he had a new goal by the time he tried to enter Beacon. But while he may have entered Beacon, it wasn't as a student, much to his own surprise. And now he must contend with the perils of his new job whilst preparing to combat a great threat. But can he do so when darkness is all he now sees and knows?

What do you get when you give Jaune bloodthirsty, sociopathic and all around perverted traits? Add in some troll qualities and pretty sad no life aspects. Strong Jaune. Eventual Harem.

Frisk opened their eyes. They sat up and their eyes landed on the golden flowers again. How many times had it been now...? A story on Frisk and Sans, both trapped in an unstoppable RESET loop and unaware of the inner demons each faces alone. As time passes and neither can escape the repetition of the days, the two must work together before they become enemies forever. Complete.

After getting launched into the forest by the scorpion, Jaune decides he can't let himself be weak anymore. He grows stronger through extensive training, aura manipulation, and a bit of courage. It probably won't flow the cannon RWBY river but hey that's why it is a fanfic. Okay so I know this summary sucks, but I would appreciate a review.
