Introduction

A fanfiction combining BlazBlue and RWBY, or more precisely, Calamity Trigger, Continuum Shift and RWBY Volume 3.

Blazblue and RWBY will share the same world, Earth. The events of RWBY Vol 3 and Calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift will take place during the tournament held in the 13th hierarchical city.

People of Remnant are from the another continent. The students and the casts of RWBY are in 13th hierarchical city for the joint tournament, the first ever crossover tournament between the Remnant and NOL.

Jin and Noel are alumnus and will not be in the tournament. Jin graduated four yeas ago and Noel three years ago.

Naoto and Raquel's origins will be different. They are students of the military academy, and Naoto will join the tournament. They will be one year older than Weiss, Blake and Yang.

The origin of the Grimms is the Black Beast. When the Beast was killed, its remains became Grimms.

No Unist and Persona because there are already too many characters to keep track of, even though I'm more of a Persona fan.

Drive and Semblance are not the same. Semblance is more like the X-men's mutant power. Drive is a term referring to natural born power and more. e.g Ragna wasn't born with Soul Eater, it was a power given to him by the Azure Grimoire. It's more like Hatsu from Hunter x Hunter.

Seithr is in a way, unrefined energy, only usable through Grimoire.

Seithr is everywhere, but is thicker in the NOL control region, and is used to power NOL's weapons, airships, everything.

Grimoire, devices powered by Seithr are used primary by NOL.

Aura is the power of the soul. In magic terms it's called Mana. Used by both the RWBY and Blazblue casts.

Blazblue's casts aura are tainted by Seithr, so while the RWBY casts' Aura looks like steam or mist, Blazblue casts' Aura resembles blue flame.

Dust technology is mainly used by the kingdoms of Remnant.

Remnant is more advanced in science, while NOL is more advanced in Ars Magus, a simplified form of sorcery and alchemy. All sorcery are magic, but not all magic are sorcery.

NOL controls the production of Grimoire, but as long as Remnant don't use Grimoire, NOL have no power over them.

NOL military might is equal to the four kingdoms of Remnant.

Beastman, Kaka and Faunus have the same origin, they were created to fight the Black Beast. Some Beastman have more animal traits than others.

The Kakas have a half human, half feline face. Think Thundercats.

The main characters are Ragna, Jin, Noel, Naoto and team RWBY.

Less quantum physics thought experiments, more straightforward plot. There's still time travel though. Blazblue's story just doesn't work without time travel.

I may not get every lore detail right, so if that happens, just think of it as this world's canon.

It will also highly inspired by Hunter X Hunter. My favorite manga series of all time.
