After Team RWBY defeated Salem, the relics were safe, but Remnant wasn't. The Grimm under Salem's control weren't eradicated. They mutated beyond how they'd existed under her and ran wild. Now, the Grimm tower like true giants, the kingdoms are more like survivor hovels, and the silver-eyed warrior lives in legends. Huntsmen academies are no more, except tiny schools run by families. Some of the heroes that defeated Salem banded together to teach others how to fight; others became cut off and lived apart from their old friends - like the surviving villains.

You were born to one of these heroes or villains, maybe even two. You're grown enough to be a good Huntsman or Huntress, but you have even greater goals than killing Grimm - locating and destroying the Grimm's central spawning ground for each region, and finding the Maidens and the silver-eyed warrior, who are critical allies for that task. It won't be easy, but you and your friends learned from the best.

With the moon risen over Remnant and conditions near apocalyptic, can you find a way back? A way forward?




This is a next-generation RWBY RP where the players' characters are all OC descendants of canon characters. Characters for this RP will begin in two groups:

- a group in central Vale, raised and trained in a small combat school run by canon heroes
- a group outside the kingdom who met because they were all pursuing a lead about the Fall Maiden.

The groups will eventually converge looking for the Fall Maiden.​

The goals for each major arc are:

- Find and confront the Maiden (each kingdom will have a single Maiden located in it)
- Overcome obstacles - villains, Grimm, limitations of the Maiden - as they arise
- Destroy the region's central Grimm-spawning ground in a harrowing climactic fight

Each kingdom will present unique challenges; the details of the setting will be fleshed out if this idea gets enough interest for me to start the RP and create the thread.

This RP's plot will move forward with some ideas from me and some from you. I can throw some good material into play, but I will not be throwing all of it, because I find it more fun when everyone has a hand in making the story.




This RP is for you if...

- you're excited about RPing a new take on RWBY's universe.
- you're coming in with ideas about the plot and cool with collaborating.
- you can write 1-3 standard paragraphs per post, and you are confident in your writing ability​

I'm looking for 4-8 players. If you're interested, please comment on this thread! Feel free to discuss character and plot ideas, but refrain from claiming canon parents until the official OOC thread is set up. I look forward to hearing from you.

@Quincunx Do your character have to be a descendant? I don't mind just wondering.

@Renny A character is good, but also, if you could help out with plot, that'd be great (I'm expecting everyone to give a few ideas for NPCs or events during each arc). Also, I think players should have creative control over the character(s) their OC was descended from - if you control Weiss's kid, for example, say whether she regained control of the Schnee Dust Company and what happened to hwr.

I can probably explain better once I get the official OOC up. I think once I get one or two more players and I'm not at work, I'll set it up.

@Quincunx Sounds like a great idea. I can definitely offer up some NPC's and potential plot-points if you need them. As for my character and their descendants, I was wondering if you had a cap on the offspring of certain characters. Important ones like Ruby Rose for instance, I know she'll be coveted for her Silver Eye genes?

@Renny Thank you! I'm thinking I will make a short list of the ones I won't allow, or perhaps a long list of ones I will. I will probably not allow a descendant of Ruby Rose, because she'll be a major NPC, making it a bad idea to cede control of her backstory over her to someone else.

@Quincunx Good, that should eliminate a good deal of frustration considering character creation lol. Well now I must choose who my characters parentage shall be. I'm off to do some research.

I can't help but be curious, my love of RWBY and interesting alternate timelines both are touched upon. However my track record with roleplay, while extensive, isn't great. Hmm, I will have to think on this matter, if even there is room for me at this point.

I'm never not interested in RWBY.

Probably looking to make a faunus, probably part of the second group. Not sure whose descendant they would be - was considering one of the villains', if allowed.

Hey everyone,

I'm sorry, especially for doing this so suddenly, but I made a mistake and have to abandon this RP and leave the site. The RP concept is free for you to use, but I can't manage it.

That said, my friend @boredbrain has generously offered to run this RP in my stead. He and I have RPed together for a long time, and I trust that he'll bring creative fervor and steady management to this RP.

Once again, I apologize for stepping down. I hope this is a choice that will allow the RP not only to survive but to flourish, and one that will work for everyone who's expressed their interest.

Hello everyone! First of all, it's a pleasure! To get to know me: I am a nerd, I love anything from anime to games so chat away! I'm a 23 year old who spends way too much time playing League Of Legends. If you need anything please PM me!

Secondly, I would like from all of you one-two sentences on what you would like to see in this RP, general or specific!
