RWBY: The Hero in your Heart

by SlimPickensUK

Over the many centuries, the Gainsborough bloodline has given Remnant numerous warriors, scholars and artisans who have all been revered in some way, whether it be small or large. But after a horrible tragedy befalls the latest generation, only a son is left. Will he carry on his family's legacy and honour the name? or will he be consumed by his own selfish desire for vengeance?

Regarding my OC

To clarify a few things:

The surname is derived from Thomas Gainsborough and as well as a county that I visit frequently in the north, even parts of the OC's appearance are based on some of Thomas' works.

As for the first name, that evolved from many different renditions of the name. starting out as Erin, then to Aaron, to Aerod and finally settling on Aero. after I even looked up the etymology of the name and also intend on incorporating that into the story for a much much later plot point if I can.

Now some may have noticed a similarity in name between my character and another character from a quite popular game series (you can probably guess which). this is why I have tried to keep this on the down low and why this Authors note is labelled as a spoiler. the similarities are intentional, admittedly they weren't initially. the reason for this is because I plan on writing a crossover story much further down the line with my OC being an integral part of the story I am crossing over with.
