Helping people. Saving people. Smiting 'evil.' That's all he did. To many out in the frontier, he was a unquestionably a hero. But to himself, he was a slave and little more. Hoping to find a true purpose in life, Jaune applies to Beacon and heads there eagerly. There, he will learn what it means to be 'free.' NOTE: summary/rating subject to change.

Nora Valkyrie celebrated every holiday under the sun, including the ones she made up. Innocent or not. Only her Fearless Leader had the patience to indulge her whimsical streak, and by perseverance, he meant his inability to say no to her gigawatt smile. Weakness, thy name was Jaune Arc.

He died stupidly at the Battle of Haven. He didn't expect to wake up in a white space. He also didn't expect to meet the Gods. He hadn't expected them to offer him another chance but he took it anyways. Armed with future knowledge, a brand new Semblance and a changed Crocea Mors he is sent back to the past. Only one problem though...

As Ruby and Jaune play Remnant online as the last day was announced of the RPG, but when they wake up they find themselves not on Earth anymore and neither in Remnant Online. They landed in an alternate dimension that is supposed to be Earth filled with monsters, people playing cosplay, and Gods...at least they have the skills of their characters.

Jaune Arc, while he wasn't the strongest, smartest or even the most good-looking kid around, he had his own charms that can bring him attention, either the good sort or the bad sort. However, he also has something which can differentiate him from others; a burning determination and drive to improve. [Jaune x Harem] [Diverges from Canon] [Now M Rated]

Jaune always wanted to be a hero, that's why he enrolled into Beacon hoping it will give him the chance to do so. What he got was a rejection letter for his troubles. Now living in Vale with no direction Jaune asks himself if he will ever have the chance to be what he dreamed to be. Turns out his question was answered with a spider bite.

He opened his eyes as he finds himself, once more, hearing the symphony of gears. He would remind himself, once more, of the sins he had committed and the sins he will continue to commit for the sake of future that felt so far out of reach. He would, once more, damn the life of the boy that showed him hope. Just like he had done countless times before.

For as long as he could remember, Jaune had a special talent: he was able to break anything. Due to his breaking various objects and furniture, he was passed down from family to family, until one day, a professor from Beacon Academy came to visit him.

What if Jaune knew how to use a spear? He just didn't know it yet. StrongJaune! Semblance!

After returning from a whole weekend in Mistral going through paperwork and meetings with her sponsors, Jaune could say that he had never seen Pyrrha so tired before; after all, combat classes, Grimm attacks or even Nora's hyperactivity couldn't knock her down. So, after seeing her struggling to even keep her eyes open, Jaune decided to take the matter into his own hands.

Jaune Arc had no business being in Beacon, so it should've been no surprise when he died on the first mission. For time to reset with every death, however? That was unexpected.

Jaune Arc; weak, dorky, determined, strong, fearless. these are some of the traits he is called but what if all those emotions and willpower gave birth to something of unimaginable power. Let us explore these universe's where Jaune is a Stand User(M rating because of gore and certain Stands) Multi Oneshot (Beta by The Erudite)

You know, you think getting launched into grimm infested forest would be the craziest thing that would happen to someone. But this blue screen telling me life was a game said otherwise. I don't know what to believe anymore, but I'll tell you one thing. I always did like playing a Paladin.

Takes place in an alternate universe. Jaune is a low class citizen despite having aura, which is considered rare. Ruby is a upper class citizen, living a privileged life due to her family status as powerful hunters. They both go through their own trials as they find comfort in each other. Only their type of relationship is forbidden due to social classes. CHAPTER 17 UP! R/R!

AU. Pyrrha is on a full-ride for varsity track, the poster child for the university. She really shouldn't be buying junk food every day from shady convenience stores far from the dorms- but there's just the cutest blond who keeps falling apart on the night shift, and whenever she buys chocolate from him he smiles, so… yeah. Late nights and junk food and baby-blue eyes it is. Arkos.

When Lucifer fell for the second time he landed somewhere new. He took it as an opportunity to start over No more Hell, No more Dad, No more Devil.But unexpected events,from Lucifer beginning to feel for Red Haired Mortal with a familiar soul,to discovering that his Big Sister Eloped with his Head Torturer,force Lucifer to wonder who he is. What does it mean to be the Lightbringer?

Death was not the end for Pyrrha Nikos. Returned from the grave as a vampire, she struggles to control her new abilities and dark urges as she seeks to reunite with her old friends.

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.

Synopsis: Between the destruction of her school, the murder of her idiot headmaster, and her failed last stand against a psychopath, Pyrrha Nikos wasn't having a good day. Waking up back in her bed after being incinerated though, well, that's where things went from bad, to weird. (Time-Travel, Pyrrha-Centric) (Cross-Posted from SpaceBattles)

Forced to admit that Crocea Mors didn't feel right in his hands—no matter how he held it—Jaune Arc struggled to overcome this obstacle through the insane idea that Aura could become more than just the armor that protected him. Barriers broke as he pushed past the limits of what Aura was capable of, creating and forging his very own weapons from the manifestation of his soul.

So I was a bit drunk when I came up with this idea, but Cardin rats Jaune out after the ursa incident, with nowhere else to go, and a dream in hand, Jaune needs to find a job to keep him stable, but what happens when that job...was nothing like he expected?

Haunted by visions of the future, Jaune desperate to help searches for it in the darkest place imaginable. But what price will he have to pay? Will it be worth it? RUSHED FIRST CHAPTER Dracula Untold and Castlevania references! CardinxVelvet

Jaune is displaced through a dust accident, and sent to the 506th Infantry regiment of the 101st airborne to fight in Europe. How will he get back? And how will he adjust back to the life he had before? Experiment fic, first chapter sucks. Slight Band of brothers xover.

When Jaune Arc was just a small child, his mother gave him a tiny seed to grow and nurture as a way to learn responsibility. His father gave him a useless Dust Shard to study power and focus. Only problem, the little Arc had wrongly misinterpreted their lessons and ended up creating Remnant's one and only Dust-Dust Fruit.

Jaune's parents discover that he faked his transcripts and stole Crocea Mors, so they pull him out of Beacon after his first semester. If Jaune ever wants to reclaim his dreams of becoming a hunter, he's going to have to do it wholly on his own. Everything changes. And yet, somethings don't.

Becoming a huntsman had been Jaune's childhood dream. One that he had abandoned years ago to support his family after what happened to his father. What he never expected, was a second chance to fulfill that wish - though it did come in the form of a rather unusual mission. He wasn't qualified to attend Beacon Academy, but Penny wanted to go, and she definitely needed a chaperone.

It didn't take long for Weiss Schnee to be sick of Jaune Arc's constant attempts at courting her, but when the young blond approaches her regarding something other than a date, what does this mean for the Schnee heiress? A tale of an unlikely friendship, and an even less likely romance. White Knight.

While on his journey to the capital, Tatsumi has a vision of what appears to be his future. Haunted by the images he sees, Tatsumi now aims to change his dark future. This fic will follow the canon plot with my own spin on the story, with some anime moments thrown in as well. Pairing will be Tatsumi x Harem with lemons later in the story. Slightly stronger Tatsumi, but not OP.

Faith, Charity, Justice, Sagacity,Prudence,Temperance,Resolution,Truth,Liberality,Diligence,Hope,and Valor. These are the virtues that are adopted by those whom choose the life of a knight. In a world overrun with evil, these are the virtues adopted by desperate individuals whom seek to protect their only chance at salvation-a reluctant heroine turned Empress. Mankind's last hope.

What would you have done if you received a letter from yourself that you don't remember writing?

Everyone but Jaune Arc failed the initiation. Ozpin was speechless. He knew the boy's transcripts were fake, indulged the act, but never foresaw this outcome. Now the numbers were skewed, and a team wasn't possible. Exploiting his forgery would backfire. No, he reluctantly folded the hand Fate bestowed upon him. The Arc must explore Beacon Academy alone.

Two significant events don't quite go according to plan, and Jaune ends up with an interesting ability. Except that he doesn't want to activate it himself, he's not sure how he got it, and it's really only useful if things go catastrophically wrong. That is to say, fairly often. Only Jaune can tell how things will end up! Time-travel.

When the world is destroyed and all that he has known has been taken away from him. One man will unknowingly return to the past and prepare it for the future that is yet to come...just not the way he expected. I don't own RWBY or any of its spin-offs.

Jaune Arc's life takes a turn for the worse before he can ever join Beacon. His dreams of becoming a huntsman almost dashed, his aspirations for the future almost shattered, Jaune finally faces the reality of his situation. He will never become a hunter... without this one pill that suddenly turns a mere human into something... greater. (Jaune on NZT)

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.

She didn't want much out of a relationship. Just someone willing to submit to her. Someone willing to love her. Someone...innocent. (Rated M for Smuttiness and general Naughtiness) ((Cover art by Exvnir))

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.

Jaune Arc is not dumb. He notices a possibility between the Battle of Haven and the start of Volume 6, and demands that Ozpin helps him try and fix something that has haunted him ever since, even after months: The Fall of Beacon. He will not let it happen again.

Ciel Soleil prides herself on following orders and in fulfilling her superior's wishes to the letter. So when Ironwood expresses his desires for Penny to win the Vital Tournament, she throws herself headfirst into the task. However, when this mission leads to her accepting a date invitation by a certain blond, it spirals into far more than she, or anyone expected.

Jaune Arc, Field Agent of the VSS - Vale's Secret Service, or at least that's what he's been told. All he knows is that they found out about his faked transcripts, and now he works in the interests of the Kingdom. With terrorists on the horizon, not to mention a shady organisation and an even shadier group operating under Ozpin, what's a bumbling teen turned secret agent to do?

Jaune never wanted to be a Huntsman. Now, he's thrust into a situation that he couldn't possibly avoid, now he's stuck in the community he refused in the first place. "This was supposed to be Joan's job, not mine. I was never meant to be a warrior, but I don't suppose I have a choice now, do I?" (New chapter is out)

After her passing at the hands of Cinder Fall, Pyrrha Nikos' conscience is forced back in time and into the mind of a certain blonde knight where she decides to try and help him train before everyone arrives at Beacon. But how is she going to do that? At least, without making him go crazy... (rated K for now, will most likely go up in the coming chapters)

Everyone could see Jaune and Pyrrha belonged together –even if they'd never admit it. So Nora starts playing matchmaker, trying to finally get Jaune and Pyrrha together. But a misunderstanding on Ren's part just might get her a match of her own.

So, one day I'm throwing up on my way to Beacon. The next day, I'm being flung from a cliff and wind up becoming a team leader. Now I'm finding out that my games have become real! Gamer Jaune

After more than year missing Jaune came back from the most dangerous place in all Remnant, with new skills and strength and most important ready for everything. (Slightly OP!Jaune and pairing undecided, Sorry for the Summary it will change i promise)

Invited into beacon by Ozpin himself due to his potential, Jaune has to grit his teeth and work to keep the place he earned at the academy. Marvel Colossus powered Jaune and my own attempts to fix what i see as problems for the other characters. Summary sucks, will be improved at a later date. rated M for now to be safe for future chapters.

Blake Belladonna caught Jaune Arc red-handed.

Jaune has been fighting for a long time. So long in fact, that he would love nothing better than to leave the war behind. But what if he got a chance to stop it from ever happening. What if he got to do it his way. The kinder way.

Being Betrayed should never be taken lightly. In Jaune Arc's position, he felt as if the world just decided that he would be one of the unfortunate few that truly feel the worst type of betrayal. The type when the ones called friends kick you to your death in the shape of a grim-pool. Now the knight has returned, and with a raging thirst for revenge. Cover art by KegiSpringfield

Instead of Pyrrha Awaking Jaune's power. Under a Life or Death moment in the Emerald Forest, Jaune awakens his own power...and a dark one at that.

Luke Skywalker has been betrayed. His new Jedi Order is in ruins and the return of the darkness only further complicates matters. The old Skywalker has gone on many grand adventures throughout his life which has solidified him as a legend throughout the galaxy, as a symbol of hope. But now with the galaxy once again on the brink of war, it's time for him to train a new legend.

Miracles had a nasty habit of happening when all hope seemed lost. Belief allowed for the bleakest of moments to become something truly beautiful. Lament summoned Folly in the face of danger. And together they created the Semblance of Hope that bestowed Jaune Arc the strength to protect those that mattered with his sword Durandal and shield Forlorn.

Jaune's love of the Souls-borne series has given him immense ability with weapons of all kinds, but alas his skill with Crocea Mors lacking, his true potential lay untouched, that is until a fateful delivery from home signals the change from an incompetent knight, to a Hunter and a true Lord of Cinder.

A broken knight, burdened by loss, driven by determination, rewrites the destiny of the world.

The Arcs are a proud line of warriors. Jaune, however, inherited none of that talent. When his father takes him to a job fair to find a more suitable apprenticeship, no one picks him. No one, that is, save for a black robed figure who rides in on a pale horse. Turns out the legends got quite a lot wrong, and at least one god still calls Remnant home. [minor Discworld crossover]

Jaune was starting to think that if he didn't want to die, then he needed to catch the soonest flight back to his hometown. But that meant abandoning his team, his dreams. What choice did he have, though? Beacon was a death sentence for him. A mischievous raven gives him the power to see the thoughts of people as if they were his own, so then maybe staying wasn't such a bad idea...

When Jaune woke up back in his house with his sisters and family, all he could do was sigh. Every time he died he was forced to start over again, and this was what... the one thousandth time? More? If it doesn't matter how hard he tries, doesn't matter how much he fights. Then maybe it's time to just kick back and enjoy himself. Fate can find someone else to be its whipping boy.

"To have died once is enough." Virgil (Tracer catches her newest teammate in a rare moment of reflection. Reaper wants the ever-optimistic British woman to leave him alone as he wallows in his misery, but of course the time-traveling Overwatch agent won't leave well enough alone.)

One day, Nora Valkyrie ponders on Jaune Arc's kindness, and mistakes it as a sign of affection towards her. She decides to return those feelings and become his girlfriend. Jaune's in shock, Yang, Blake, and Weiss are confused, and the less said about Pyrrha & Ruby's feelings the better. Ren? He's enjoying his new found downtime. Written because the world needs more Nora x Jaune.

When Maya draws the short straw, (The Vault Hunters literally drew straws) she has to investigate a local bandit stronghold with everyone's favorite Hyperion-Experiment-Gone-Terribly-Right, Krieg.
