I've made more mistakes than any man, woman, or child on this planet... - Prof. Ozpin



Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long. Team RWBY; an exceptional group of huntresses in training. However, there are always great people being born. Some are wasted and in the end fade into obscurity. Others however stand out like lights in the darkness. Beacons, you could say.

One year before there was RWBY, a few such lights gathered.

- - -

So why Haze? What does it have to do with anything? Well Haze has many meanings. Freshman, first years, new-bloods, Hazing is something done to them quite often. It can be a test to see their dedication, to test their resilience... and other times it's just a cruel prank. Haze can also mean a mist that obscures. It can also speak about confusion. Which of these meanings will matter? One? The other? A combination of two? . . . All of them?

Cruelty, obscurity, and confusion. Quite the combination, don't you think? Well, I'm sure it means nothing.

- - -

RULES:
You should all know these by now, but I'll put it here anyway so there is no question.
- No GODMODDING. You can only control your character and you cannot kill off other characters without permission. You will be told when you're allowed to control/kill things besides your own character.
- Me and RyuHll are the gms, so please listen to us. We will listen to your concerns, we're not going to rule with an iron fist or anything, but if decisions need to be made, we'll have the final say. We're nice I swear! (Well, I am anyway...)
- In accordance with the above, if you have any crazy ideas, run it by us in OOC or PMs first.
- I'm not gonna be a huge jerk about it, but there's only a few of us in this, so try to make decent sized (4-5 line minimum on average) posts. Each post should be meaningful.
- No speed posting. Everyone in a "room" must post before the cycle may begin anew. If groups are separated, then try not to get too far ahead of the other group. There's no iron clad post order, just think before you post, 'aight?

Other than that... common sense please.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I have a problem with this. What's this about no iron fist? This is NOT what I signed up for. xD

I'm going to get this out of the way right now. I will not be able to post between the 14th and 17th of this month as Gen Con is happening then and I will be there the whole entire time. I am also going to be driving the two days before that, but I hope I'll be able to post at least when I'm at a motel/hotel as I will be bringing my iPad with me. I highly doubt I'll be able to post during the event though.

Sorry Blaz, but we've come to a decision, so no need. Tweak or not, we've made a decision based on other factors. It was a hard decision, even with your character as it is, but me and Ryu have decided.We'll be taking Abel and Maggie. Abel's personality fits better with the plot we've come up with, and we think Maggie will add some spice and conflict to the group, but without overlapping with the other characters' combat styles.We looked at everything, and that's what we came up with.Now, the last thing to figure out... TEAM NAME!!!!N, A, M, and O.MANO, MONA, AMON?Well, it seems a few people didn't listen when I said no vowels, though Odette was admitted to only be a placeholder.Anyway, let us all move over to the main thread and begin thinking of how to handle this.


Looks like I did indeed miss the part about vowels. My apologies--but hey, at least I'm in. I can help with the team name. There's a website called Word Hippo that has a function perfect for figuring out team name. The best ones I found are 'dyNAMO', 'cinnAMON', 'eNAMOr', and 'iNfAMOus'. If Odette's name is changed, even more possibilities open up. Hope that helps.

Hm...dyNAMO and iNfAMOus could be good ones. Those are my top two, personally. Let's wait for Killa and the other teammates, though, to get their input. If Odette's name changes, we'll figure some other ones out anyway.

Hey all, just getting home, psyched for this, and like I mentioned, "Odette" was simply a placeholder, so you guys can literally pick whatever letter and I will get another name for Miss Persinette. Though I admit Team dyNAMO sounds pretty awesome.

Unfortunately I don't think it would quite count if we pretended other letters exist. In RWBY, they're all pronounced as they appear. RWBY, ruby, JNPR, Juniper, CRDL, Cardinal. The words they make all begin and end with letters in the team name.

AMON is an Egyptian spirit/god, so if we kept with the letters we have, we could use that and it's kinda cool. Otherwise, I think we'll need some new letters.

I know Hero is willing to change Odette's name. Lugubrious, are you at all willing to pick a new name?

There's definitely room for interpretation. If I didn't know the proper names, I'd be pronouncing those 'ruwubby' 'jinpur' 'curdle' and (for the latest one, team CFVY, properly called 'Coffee') 'cuhfuvvy'. Some of those might just be me being stupid, but the 'n' in Cardinal is a noteworthy addition.

I'd prefer not to change Abel's name, given his theme and the idea of brothers Abel and Kane in his backstory, but I suppose if there were no alternatives I could change. Just factoring out the 'o', however, a slew of possibilities appear. We've got Tsunami, Sunbeam, Napalm, Dynamite, Moonbeam, Phantasm, Ornament, and Namesake, as well as new ways to approach Infamous (using i or f) and Dynamo (using d or y).

Naturally the final word is all yours.

Maybe we could be Team NAME? Or DAMN. Or...something. To be honest, having N and M together makes it tricky to come up with a team name that makes sense. Well, maybe it's doable and I am just not smart enough to think of one. Because I think of N_M_ or M_N_. Maybe I'm just terrible at this.

What about Team MAIN? 'Cause we're the MAIN characters (I think)?

Word Hippo gave me these options:

amen damn
hymn limn
main mana
mane mans
many mean
mend meno
menu mien
mind mine
mini mink
mint minx
moan mong
monk mono
moon morn
mown mung
muon myna
omen

MYNA might be good.
SAMN = salmon? Strong fish that fight the current.
ANME = anime (lol) or enemy if you pronounce it right.
ANMA = anima sounds pretty cool and has a cool meaning

Also, crazy idea, any chance people would want to change their names so your team name could be HAZE? Just throwing that out there. XD

Edit: I kinda like ANMA actually. Hero, you could even change your character name to Audette, and it would almost be like you had the name you started with. It even means noble... which... well... considering her history, it's fitting.

Of course that's only if you're all interested.

I like ANMA actually. Changing it to HAZE is too much of an ask I think.

That's two votes. Well, one and a half since I'm not on the team. :P
Well, mostly we just need Hero's opinion, since Odette is the one needing a name change to make it work. Fortunately there's a million female A names to pick from, many of which end in "ette" if that's important.

I do so like ANMA, sounds kickass. Definitely got my vote. Odette will now be known as Aurelia Persinette to match.

Well, I think that's good enough for a final decision. Barring any sudden complaints from drewccapp, that's gonna be your team name. I will start this RP up tomorrow.
