Menagerie, a small landmass situated in the southeast of Remnant. Two thirds of this land is covered by desert, forcing its people to congregate in small, dense settlements. This landmass is home to the Faunus, a humanoid species that possess animal traits such as a dogs ears or a lizards tail, or a rams horns.

Sadly, this land was originally meant to be their prison. Like Earth's Australia had once served as a penal colony, Menagerie was where the faunus were to be confined and kept away from the general "human" population. Until recent years, they were forbidden from even setting foot in the four kingdoms.

Then the Faunus rose up, sparking a revolution that they hoped would change things for the better. While they earned the freedom to settle in the kingdoms, scrutiny against Faunuskind remained. Shops refused to serve them, faunus children were bullied and discriminated by their human peers. To truly bring about an age of peace and unity between the two people, the White Fang was founded. It worked tirelessly to mend the damage caused by the Revolution, until its founder stepped down allowing a woman named Sienna Khan to take the reins.

Khan rejected the founders peaceful methods, favoring violent merhods and acts of terrorism, furthering distrust between the two peoples. Both man and faunus came to fear the White Fang, for in their eyes, if a faunus didn't agree to their methods, they were deemed an enemy.if their people. But not all were cowed by Khan's regime.

In the outskirts of Vale was a large farm. The barn was covered in White Fang graffiti, and anti-human sentiment. This did nothing to quell the rumors regarding man who owned this land.

What were these rumors? That the owner, an old bear faunus named Grizzley Braun was a member of the White Fang. The rumors were false, of course, what with Grizzley being a pacifist. But when a group of White Fang sympathisers come knocking on your door, what else are people going to think in this day and age?

They had come with the usual jargon and bluster, trying to justify the White Fang's atrocities as justice for their people, prompting the old bear to snap back at them, calling them hypocrites and savages. They responded by returning after nightfall, stealing his harvest and vandalizing the barn and his house with White Fang propaganda. Grizzley, though dismayed by their actions, decided to turn the other cheek, knowing that their actions were misguided and that no one was harmed. His eldest son, however was furious. "We should be making those bastards pay! They can't push us around like this!" Said Tychus as the Braun family was gathered for dinner.

Grizzley Braun was an absolute unit of a man! He was 6'8 with bulging muscles, though with his rotund build and choice of apparel, a blue plaid shirt and black overalls, with black boots, you would never be able to tell. His brown and graying hair was shoulder length and tied back to stay out of his eyes when he worked the field. His eyes were squinted to the point where you couldn't make out the color of his irises, and on the top of his head were two furry round ears, like those of a bear. His mouth was obscured by a very, very thick brown beard. "You listen here, boy. I will not stoop to the level of those hypocrites. There's enough fighting going on already, if the Grimm are any indication."

His son, Tychus Braun was 6'4 and muscular like his father, but he didn't share his father's build, instead having more of an athletic physique. His hair was brown like his father's, was cut much shorter, and was swept back, with furry round ears atop his head, similar to the ones on his father's head. His eyes were a deep bronze color. He wore a black muscle shirt under a brown leather coat, blue jeans held up by a brown belt, and black boots. "They stole our crops! The barn's covered with their damned propaganda! We can't just let them get away with it!!"

"We won't" said Grizzley, frustrated by his son's behavior. "I already told the police what happened. They'll look into it."

"Look into it?! They won't look into it!! Those White Fang jackasses are going around town saying that you joined up with them, and that you gave them the crops just to spite the neighbors!"

"Watch yer mouth, boy... They're only rumors, Tychus. They'll fade away soon enough."

"But Pa--" "But nothing!" Grizzley was fuming. He didn't raise his son to be some rabble rouser. Better to live in peace than die over a dumb cause. The rest of the evening went by in uncomfortable silence, with Tychus' younger sisters, twins Maxine and Maria, visibly shook by the exchange.

Tychus, however refused to ignore the matter...

At the local pub, three faunus in attire styled to resemble the uniforms worn by members of the White Fang were enjoying a drink, while making the evening uncomfortable as possible for the human patrons.

One was a young man with slicked-back, dark green hair, green scales on his arms and snake-like eyes. The second was a large man with a shaved head and a rhino's horn jutting from his forehead. The third was a teenage girl with short black hair and a rat's tail.

"How long do you guys wanna bet it takes Old Man Grizzley to reconsider?" asked the rhino faunus.

"The old fart ain't gonna back down just cause of some rumors and graffiti." Said the snake faunus as he downed his drink. "We gotta do something bigger."

"Maybe he'd sing a diffrerent tune if something happened to his family." remarked the rat faunus with an evil grin in her face. "Papa Bear seemed pretty protective of those daughters of his."

It was then that Tychus had burst through the front door. He had traded his jacket for a rough looking, bronze breastplate, with a single pauldron. In his right hand was a shield resembling a bear's head, with a spiked metal ball in its mouth. He was wearing a set of bronze greaves over his jeans and bracers of the same color on his forearms. Over the breastplate was an opened long black coat with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows.

"Welly-welly-welly-welly-well!" said the snake faunus as he rose fom his chair, his compatriots accompanying him as they approached the bear faunus. "If it isn't Grizzley Junior! Thanks again to your old man for those supplies!" He said loud enough for the other patrons to hear.

Tychus was not in the mood for games. He leaned in towards the snake faunus, looming over the White Fang wannabe. "I think I speak for everyone when I say you've worn out your welcome around these parts." His voice was low, his words coming out in a growl. The snake faunus was scared, but managed to regain his composure.

"I-Is this about stiffing you on the pay? Appy-polly-loggies for that, my good man, but I'm sure our captain will pay generously for your contribution once we get the supplies to him for distribu--"

Tychus suddenly swung at the snake faunus with his free hand, causing the snake to duck, yelp and back away behind the rhino faunus. "U-uh, any complaints can be redirected to my associates! Get him, you droogs!!" Snake turned around and ran for the bar, vaulting over the counter to cower in peace. Rhino swung back at Tychus, who caught the punch and slammed his shield into Rhino's stomach, sending him reeling back.

Rat drew a dagger and managed to jump onto Tychus's back. Tychus reached behind himself, grabbing Rat by the collar of her shirt, and threw her into the jukebox.

Rhino had recovered and readied his war hammer as he grinned maniacally, intent on killing the bear faunus. He charged forward with a battle cry, only for Tychus to catch the blow with his shield. The two stood in weapon lock, neither side giving way as Rat stumbled to her feet. Noticing that Tychus was too focused on Rhino, she slinked her way to the bear faunus' flank, driving her knife into his side and causing him to falter.

Rhino saw his opening and pushed Tychus away, raising his hammer high above his head! Tychus rolled out of the way just as the hammer came down and embedded itself into the floor of the pub. As Rhino tried in vain to free his weapon, Tychus gave the beserker a kick to the head, his body crumpling before he tried to reorient himself. Tychus then turned his attention towards Rat, who gave a sheepish smile as the bear faunus loomed over her.

CLANG*

Rat had been struck by Tychus's shield, and was launched into the rows of bottles behind the bar, landing next to Snake who was currently drinking a martini. Noticing his rodent compatriot, he simply smirked and said "So who's winning?" Rat responded by throwing the martini to the side and throwing him back over the counter, where he was now face to face with Tychus. Snake took a rather comical boxing stance like you would see in an old cartoon. The bear faunus pulled Snake's leg out from under him with his free hand, raising his shield and using it to slam Snake down into the counter. When the dust cleared, Snakes eyes had turned into swirls and little birds were flying around his head.

Rhino had finally snapped out of his stupor, noticing Snake was now embedded in the countertop, and pried his hammer from the floor of the pub. He charged and swung at Tychus, who simply ducked under the hammer, causing Rhino's weapon to smack into Rat, who had just climbed onto the counter, sending her crashing into a wall.

Tychus and Rhino were the only two left standing, with the latter still grinning like a madman as he brandished his weapon. Tychus knew this opponent wouldn't go down easy, he couldn't play defensively for long. So he figured it was time to use his weapon's alternate mode.

CLICK*

Tychus pressed a switch in the shields handle, releasing the metal ball from the bears mouth as it fell to the ground on a long chain that lead back into the bears maw, crashing into the floor. Rhino's eyes widened at the sight, but he was still determined to beat Tychus into a pulp!

Tychus took hold of the meteor hammers chain, swinging it around as he kept his grip on his shield. He swung the weapon towards Rhino, the chain wrapping itself around the war hammer's shaft before being yanked away by the bear faunus, disarming the beserker and swinging the chain back around towards his opponent. With a flick of his wrist, Tychus released the war hammer from the chains grasp, sending it flying back to Rhino, who easily caught it...

With his face! The beserker reeled back from the impact before seeing Tychus swing the meteor hammer's head back around.

CLANG!!* Strike one went into the stomach...

CLANG!!* Strike two went below the belt...

CLANG!!* Strike three went right in the kisser!! Rhino was practically blasted out the door of the pub!!

Snake had managed to regain consciousness and pull himself off of the now destroyed bar. He looked up to see Tychus looming over him with a very angry look on his face.

Snake was now in need of a clean pair of pants.

"I want you and your friends outta town by tomorrow," growled Tychus, "but first you're going to do a few things for me."

"W-whatever you need my good man!" said Snake, hoping the bear faunus didn't notice what was going on behind him.

Rhino had stumbled back onto his feet, his head still spinning from that last combo. He noticed Tychus threatening Snake as he peered through the doorway.

"First, you're gonna give back the crops you stole from my Pa's farm!"

"Yes, yes of course!" cried Snake, mentally shouting at Rhino to do something.

"Second, you're gonna stop spreading rumors about my old man!"

"R-right..."

"And third--"

"RRRAAAAGGH!!!" Rhino charged toward Tychus, intent on impaling the bear faunus with his horn!

"YOU'RE DEAAAAAuuuuu-huh?!" Rhino had stopped dead in his tracks just before impact! Tychus looked over his shoulder at the berserker, smirking at him before stepping off to the side and...

SNAP*

CRASH*

With a snap of Tychus' fingers, Rhino had launched forward twice as fast as he was running, crashing into Snake and sending them both flying through the wall, leaving a hole in the exact shape of the berserker.

"...You're gonna check into a hospital."

A few things. I know the last "trailer" was too short, and I apologize for that, I was too busy trying to make it cinematic to notice the length. Hopefully this trailer makes up for that! I'm working on stuff to add to the Steel trailer to make it longer and provide some extra context, otherwise's stuff's gonna get confusing when we start the story proper, or if you guys want, I can leave the Steel trailer as is, and it can be considered a teaser trailer.
