Team ZRVT

Once, there was a team. A team with such pride and courageousness. From Haven Academy, they were the idols the students looked up to. One team that will never be the same again. Team ZRVT (pronounced: serpent) had been the objects in the interest in their headmaster, Leonardo Lionheart.

Of whom he was trusted with not only civilian lives, but also their lives as well. The leader, Zerena Slithers, is a snake faunus who was a dominant woman among her male teammates who kept her team in tact. Her father was killed by members of the White Fang for being a human. Those of the faunus whose parents are humans, are punished with execution.

Here we also have Roth Mandle, some have feared him due to his muscular appearance. But has a soft side growing herbs for medicine. But trained his body by any means. Which is proven useful. His mother owns a flower shop which was closed due to the business of the Schnee Dust Company. So he planned to win it back by making lien as a huntsman.

Jupiter Vasilias, many women find him quite handsome. But he never accepts some proposals of relationships as he was too serious and cold. But according to rumors, he has a rebellious streak compared to any man and boy. But regardless, he has high IQ of 800. But he also hates Atlas, as he saw the kingdom as nothing but corruption and pollution to the world.

Last but not least, Tyler Shepard. A wolf Faunus who was raised by thieves. At the age of 17, he was nearly sentenced to life in prison. But Lionheart met him and offered him a deal to enroll into Haven in exchange for the charges to be dropped. His thievery skills were proven useful to disarm their enemies. All the members have respected Lionheart as their headmaster and mentor.

Later they were sent on a mission. To travel to Atlas and free the faunus being forced to work in the dust mines by the Schnee Dust Company. The one industry they hated most. As soon as they infiltrated the mines, they failed to notice that there was a bomb inside. As a result, the failed rescue mission was a set-up. Faunus we're killed with Team ZRVT alive. Being thought as the individuals who placed it.

They tried to tell the Atlesian leader, General James Ironwood that Lionheart was the one who sent them there to rescue the Faunus. But nobody believed them. They were sentenced to life in prison for something they didn't do. Feelings of a hunch was directed at Lionheart as they were sunk into a ship meant for prisoners sailing to Vacuo.

The next thing, they cannot remember anything as they were landed on Salem's palace. Pains and screams inside of pods of Arthur Watts. The man responsible for their memories to be erased for them to become assassins in their own regime. Team ZRVT have awaken, not as their own individuals, but as the Black Vipers.

The Vipers were proven to be a deadly force. Sent on missions to assassinate every huntsmen and huntresses. Powerful than any huntsmen in the world. Even the White Fang will never stand a chance at winning against them. But the more they were out on a hunt, the more flashbacks they were given. Which left them to question about their lives as human and faunus beings.

Later back in the palace, Zerena heard a conversation between Salem and Watts. Both of whom they have sworn their loyalties to. "The four of them must not remember of who they truly are. They will grow to despise us if they find out the truth." Said Salem.

"I will make them in their likenesses should anything fails." Assured Watts.

"Do what you must, Arthur." Said Salem.

"Yes, your grace."

As she went away from the main door. Zerena then left to find some answers for herself and her team. Going through Watts' lab and found a series of messages between Lionheart and Watts. Revealing who she and Team ZRVT were once were, the files, the dealerships. And the last part is the bomb, it was all a set up for Watts to frame them and kidnap them. And Lionheart was the one who sold them out of cowardice.

Shocked by the events, Zerena informed her team of what she had found. Angered, they swore revenge on Watts, Lionheart, Ironwood, and then Salem. For the years they have stolen from them. But remained in the act as they have to think of a strategy for what happens next. "My four warriors, because of your effort and loyalty to me. No one was left to oppose us. Still we have threats among us. But with your help, we can conquer Remnant by retrieving the Relics. Now rise, and let us discuss how we can operate on the destruction of Haven Academy."

"Yes, your grace." They all said together, standing from one knee.
