Okay, so I brought this idea up back in the main Spacebattles thread for this story, and I decided to go through with it. In essence, these are going to be come in-universe student files written up by Ozpin for the staff of Beacon Academy that give his in-universe thoughts on certain students. And by certain students, I mean the main characters of Team RNJR, BRNN, and TSYP. Basically, this is a small, side thing that'll be complementary to BlazBlue Alternative: Remnant. Now, while this is all canon to the main story, it's all just side stuff giving Ozpin's POV on his students, so it's not really mandatory unless you want some extra reading material or extra content and what-have-you. We'll be starting off with Ragna.
With that in mind, BlazBlue is owned by Arc System Works and RWBY is owned by Rooster Teeth. Please support the official release.
STUDENT FILES
First Name: Ragna
Last Name: N/A
Age: 18
Team: RNJR
Weapon: Aramasa (large single-edged claymore-style sword/combat scythe)
Semblance: Soul Eater
Family:
* Jubei (adoptive father/mentor)
* Jin (younger brother according to information given by Jubei)
* Saya (younger sister according to information given by Jubei)
Description:
Sardonic, anti-authoritarian, foul-mouthed, and rude. These are but a few words that would best describe Ragna. Over the course of the first semester, Ragna has proven to be Beacon's problem child, often getting into fights with other, more abrasive students and disagreements with the staff.
As someone who was trained and mentored by Jubei, whom few truly know the capabilities of, he may just be the physically strongest student at Beacon thus far. He has proven strong enough to lift and throw Grimm as large as Death Stalkers, overwhelm other students with pure brute force and with very little effort, and has even bested the likes of 2nd year team, CFVY, and first year prodigy, Pyrrha Nikos, in combat. Despite his preference for aggression, he has shown a strong degree of proficiency with his weapon, Aramasa, in both its forms, though he prefers its sword form, and is highly adept in unarmed combat, enough so to educate his teammate, Jaune Arc. Still, that preference towards physical strength may prove to be troublesome for him one day. Strength alone will not guarantee him success, after all.
He has perhaps one of the most unnerving Semblances that we have come across. He and his master refer to it as "Soul Eater", and it does as the name implies. With physical contact or by channeling his Aura through his strikes, he can drain the Aura and soul of his victims. This Semblance takes the form of a dark aura that coats his arms, legs, weapon, or even his whole body, depending on where he channels it. Combined with his naturally high strength, it means that he can down most opponents with few attacks, as the initial draining effects can leave them fatigued and almost defenseless if they aren't careful. Something that I should stress is that despite the Semblance directly targeting the soul, the soul itself can recover from these attacks and will heal and restore over time after the fact. However, as Jubei informed me, if one were to be killed by this ability...well, I believe we can surmise what would happen.
Because of this, Ragna has limited his use of Soul Eater and doesn't display it much in combat, only using it when he wants to end a fight quickly or in a fit of anger where he loses control of it.
That is something to bring up that is perhaps Ragna's greatest flaw. He is naturally quick to rage and with it, violence. He's had a number of outbursts very early in the semester and a few weeks in, almost killed a fellow student, Cardin Winchester, in a fit of anger when said student was harassing Velvet Scarlatina. Though thankfully, instances of this have died down as the semester continued.
But even with his faults, Ragna does carry within him a noble soul. He despises injustice and goes against it the only way he knows how. Despite the aggression of his actions, he is ultimately well-intentioned and desires to protect those close to him. Something to note about Ragna is that he's very aware of his negative attributes and does put genuine effort in trying to move past his faults, even taking full responsibility for any damage he causes. He has formed very close bonds with his teammates throughout the year and is very protective of them, especially his partner and leader, Ruby Rose.
Extra Notes:
* Academically speaking, he's relatively average to above average. He doesn't lack intelligence by any means, more so that he just doesn't care for such pursuits, preferring combat to academia. If he chose to apply himself, perhaps he'd be on the same level as the more academically inclined students.
* His relationship with Miss Rose and Mister Arc is similar to that of how an older brother interacts with his younger siblings. His relationship with Miss Vermillion is friendly, but not as close as the other two.
* Seems to be a proficient chef and has cooked meals for his teammates.
* Sleeps outside his dorm room by choice.
* Has a rather strong sense of self-loathing, and will even blame himself for things he did not cause if he played a role in it. Will need to help him regarding this later on.
* ALERT: In light of recent information received, I will make it a point to keep close watch on him in the near future.
Okay, first student file down, bunch more to go. Best part about these things is that unlike main chapters for BAR (my acronym for BlazBlue Alternative: Remnant), they don't take very long to write up, so it shouldn't take me very long to make these. I should have the next one up pretty soon, and it'll be about Jaune, just as a heads up, seeing as we're working backwards for each team, starting with the end letter and working are way up to the first letter, so Ruby will be the last of Team RNJR to have her file set up.
