|Personality|
♦ Protective ♦ Hardworking ♦ Overbearing ♦ Calm ♦

Tai is a calm and parental person who cares for those around him almost like a parent to a child. He's hardworking and bit of a perfectionist which makes him work himself and others harder then they should. On the other hand he can be overbearing of others as he always think he knows what best for others even when it's clearly not. He also likes to take care of others rather it's cooking or cleaning for them as he feels it's an obligation to the people he's around. He also has a more dangerous facet to his personality as he's deathly protective of others almost to the point of obsession and may even turn his attacks to his allies if he feels they are about to do something reckless and fatal to their health and only relenting once he feels the people he take cares is strong enough to protect themselves.

|Place of Origin|
Ba Sing Se, Earth Nation

|History|
Tai Yu Ming was born in Ba Sing Se as the oldest of nine children in a middle class family. Even at a young age Tai was a care Taker as he he took care of his siblings as their parents were always busy making a living to keep each child fed and happy. Tai also learned he was an Earth Bender at a young age when he used to it find one of his hiding sisters in a game of hide and seek. After that his mother taught him to earth bend as she was an earth bender herself and was a member of the Earth Nation army. When he was being trained by their mother all of his siblings were also learning that they were benders so he eventually he started to teach each of his siblings bending after his lesson with their mother.

Tragedy stuck the family when he was a teen. Their mother was killed in combat, as she froze to death by the hands of a water bender. Tai was thr first to recover as he had to take of his siblings as their father has fallen ill after her death. Tai was working himself to the bone, he was feeding, cleaning and training his siblings while also taking care of his father and starting a job to earn some money until their father recovers, he had help with some of the older kids helping around the house, but he was doing most of the work even still. Tragedy struck again when the oldest of the brotherswas attacked by a water bender and then killed shortly after he joined the Earth Nation army, soon enough each of his siblings started to join the army to avenge their sibling and mother, at first Tai let them join without much resistance as he believed that it was their choice to make. But when his siblings started to drop like flies one by one, he started to falter and his father was doing worse, soon enough their was only two siblings left, the twins sisters who were close of age to join the earth nation army. One night the twins went up to him and say they aren't joining the army which relived him to no end, but he was horrified what he heard next. They wanted to leave the earth nation and make a new living elsewhere away from the sadness in the household. Tai did something they didn't expect, he ask to fight them, to see if they were strong enough to survive, the fight lasted three hours but the twins won using teamwork, he was quiet but then he put on a fake smile saying they were strong enough to survive, but unknown to them he and their father fallen into a deep depression after they left.

His father died shortly after the twins left, he left himself after putting up the graves of each of the dead family members, there was too many. He became a vagabond helping people when ever he can rather it's feeding then, cleaning their houses or using his bending to fix problems but it was all meaningless to him without anyone around to take care of, he has never knew a life of loneliness. It was disheartening and odd but he kept moving forward each day better then the last. He is hoping to find purpose in his family less life.

|Extra|
His scared of Ice and freezing water. Should hate water benders but doesn't. Is the lightest sleeper ever.

Paris Rosaline - Vale Docks - Monday Morning

 @agentmanatee@KiltmanBagz@Dawkins @Vilhelm@OneWayOut @boomlover@datadogie

Just as Paris' nose was crinkly from the smell of fish and other ungodly things from the sea, a soft and shy voice brought him back to reality. He knew who it was immediately, he smiles softly then turned his face and body away form the rising sun to his Deer friend, Heather Di Mint. A member of the team he leads, Team PYCH. She is a Faunas but to him that didn't matter she was a trusted teammate and he would stand up for her when people tease her, although they been in a team for a whole year she's still shy towards him but he blames himself for that, since he does tends to be overbearing at times with her and Yami, but it best for him to reply.

"Howdy, Heather!" Paris smiled brightly at his friend and team mate, his bright red eyes was almost sparkling with emotions, a rare thing when at his parents estate.

Before Paris could continue talking with Heather a new arrival came up to then, it was one of the members of the other team, Rust of Team FRST, an oddball that one but reliable in combat as he remembers. But one wouldn't guess that by looking at the half dead man walking towards the two looking like he could pass out at any moment not a morning person, Rust.
The lazy man introduced himself to the pair with a somewhat rude nickname to Heatherm Paris shot Rust a quick but stabbing glare at the nickname even if he didn't meant any ill will by it, Paris won't allow name calling to his Faunas team member, but his expression quickly returned to his normal smile once he calmed down. "Greetings, Rust... I hope you have a nice nap." Paris spoke to Rust who slowly but surely started to take a nap in the middle of the dirty and wet Docks, Paris was trying his hardest to not yell at him to at least move on to a bench so he wouldn't ruin his clothes and pillow.

Suddenly when his guard was lowered another voice spoke up behind him, at the start of last year he would've jumped in fright and karate chop the space where the voice came from that startled him but after being around Yami, he never reacted the same way or else he would get in trouble. Paris spinned around quickly in place and looked up to meet the eyes of his follow manly team mate, Yami Crimson.

"Hiya, Yami, long time no see~ Even though Yami had a whole foot over Paris, Paris was the more confidant of the group, besides Carlin who hasn't showed up yet, which was odd for her. She must be busy this morning. " How are you two this fine morning?"

RWBY: The Last Dawn

Paris Rosaline - Rosaline Estate - Two Days Ago

A young man stood under the light of a giant glowing Cherry Blossom. The young mans pink hair swayed in unison with the tree's branches giving the appreance that his hair was apart of the trees leaves. The young man pushed aside his swaying hair out of his face as he studied the fully blossomed tree with indifference, his red eyes barely moving as he focused on the shattered moon behind the leaves and branches. If he wasn't feeling such a hazy mix of emotions he would find it all symbolic but instead it was just sad. His entire existence was bound to this damn tree, he is to take care of it and keep it from destroying everything his family owns. Sakura Rosaline, is what the tree is called. When his family found it, it was already hundreds of years old but shortly after it started to absorb the dust minerals from a now abandoned Mine. Normally when a tree is in contact with dust and especially how much this one had absorb it would kill it and cause untold destruction to the area. But this tree was different. It was in harmony with the dust, for the most part. It still needs a caretaker to keep it from destroying itself in a massive display of fire, earthquakes and winds and other dangers of catastrophic levels, this was done by the Rosaline family whose unique Semblance allowed them... him, to stabilize the dust within it bark to keep it under control for a few weeks before he would need to do it again.

He sighs outloud, this tree was his master to put it bluntly, if it wasn't here he would be free to have control of his own life and be free but instead he's on a tight lease until he has kids of his own to deal with this blasted thing but he would be no better then his parents. This tree has caused so many cycles of resentment. But it was just the life of a Rosaline, a life of duty to the family and of Vale.

The young man raised his hand which carried a scroll by his follow Classmat, Fern of team FRST, he has read dozens of times already, he has already sent letters to his teams relaying the news of the content of the scroll to them. He closed thr scroll slowly, as he remembered the details such as how both his and Fern's teams will group up at the Vale Docks on Monday and go on a mission for the Headmaster himself, a sort of recon mission from what little she told him and if he knew ozpin as he likes to think so, it wasn't her fault. For thr Headmaster has a reputation for always hiding the truth from people, even from his most trusted associates. But that's not the pink haired youth place to judge if he has a mission for him he will do it for that's the duty of the Huntsmen, a true Huntsmen.

Paris stared intensly at the scroll blankly before he smiles at his own naivety, a Huntsmen are just human and Faunas like anybody else, they aren't inherently good people, that's impossible to be no matter how hard people like to think otherwise. A person is made by their choice. Paris had limited choices due to his lease to this tree but even so, with his life tethered to such a tight lease around this duty, a lease can be pulled both ways, and he will pull until he's free enough choose his own life.

His own choices.

Paris Rosaline - Vale Docks - Monday Morning

@agentmanatee@KiltmanBagz@Dawkins

Paris was looking over the docks onto the sea with a smile as the sun raised over the horizon, making the seas and skies into beautiful hues of reds, oranges and yellows as the final Remnants of the night are all but gone.

His hair swayed in the early misty breeze. His smile showed the world his comfort of who he is, for the first time since the start of his school break. His family always has a way to make him second guess himself with everything. But that not important now, what's is the mission detailed to him by Fern who is to meet him here any second now. As he was patiently waiting for both of the teams he is was hoping he wouldn't have to wait much longer. For the fishermen were starting to arrive with their nightly game.

Voice of Paris (Ken Amada - P4AU )

"Being good isn't a thing you are, it's a thing you do."

Name:  
Paris Rosaline

Age:  
18

Gender:  
Male

Race:  
Human

Appearance:  
Paris is petite as he stands at only being 5 feet tall and has a lithe but strong figure as he only weighs in at a mere 101 pounds. He often wears tailedcoats with dress pants, belts, gloves, armbands,  and leather boots ensemble giving him a look of elegance. His combat armor is designed not to look that different from his civilian outfit as its make it easy to move in with hindrance and blend in if necessary since his combat style is dependant on being able to keep his distance from combatants so he doesn't need much armor to protect himself but gives him the ability to dodge at a moments notice.

Weapon Name:
Blossoming Hope

Weapon Appearance/Function:

Type:
Static, heavily Ranged, Dust powered weapon.

Weapon Derivation:  
Bow, Staff

Holstered/Sheathed Appearance:
Blossoming Hope appears as a simple Bow with a rose Bud atop the limb's tip and a few Rose Quartz embedded into the limbs and grip, the body of the bow looks to be a simple branch but in reality it's sturdy yet bendable enough to be use as a powerful Bow if it had a sting.

Form 1:
Blossoming Hope's combat form looks almost the same as it does while sheathed with the two biggest difference being is that a string is made from the upper ad lower limb's made out of refined form of dust compatible with the Rosaline family Semblance and the Cherry Blossom atop the upper limb fully blossoms.

Personality:
Paris is a flirty, confidant, well spoken and affable person. An extrovert though and though as he loves being around others and spending time with his team members, otherwise he gets overwhelmed by his emotions when left alone for an extended amount of time. Because of this he loves being the center of attention and the feeling of being loved and needed by others, although he sometimes comes off as needy and high maintenance because of this. For all his confidence he still deals with self doubt and fear about his future. He is hard working at everything he does to the point of obsession, rather it's school work, hunting Grimm,  playing video games or even cleaning up after everybody in his team, he always needs to be doing something at all times.

History:  
Paris is the only child of the famous Rosaline smiting family of Vale, living a life of high expectations and responsibilities, but also of luxury and wealth.  Even from a young age he was being trained in the way of weapon making as well as tending to the family's historic Cherry Blossom tree, a job that belongs to the Rosaline' heir and Leader. Paris hated all the expectations placed on him and his duties to his family, and he desires nothing but to get away from his predestined life and make a name for himself.

He will become a Huntsman.

Huntsmen and Huntresses in the Rosaline' family are rare and far between but not impossible as their family Semblance gives them a unique fighting stlye by controlling the dust within the Cherry Blossom tree and making a normally weak material into powerful weapons with powerful attacks and abilities. Paris' made his weapon out of a branch and fashioned it into a bow with a single bud that blossoms during combat. It was the only thing he was never given by his parents  as they forbade him from fighting at first since being the heir apparent means if he died or gets hurt the family would be Heir - less and the Tree would lack a care Taker. But Paris was adamant on his choice and after weeks and months of arguing he managed to convince his parents to let him join signal to train with the excuse that his Semblance will be stronger so it would be more useful to taking care of the cherry blossom.

In his years at signal he did his best to be more then his last name and heritage, he had high grades both in grades and combat pratice, but it was never enough to make his parents stop asking him if he wants to quit and come back home as they didn't see his full potential. He always says no, and was getting tired of never reaching his parent high expectations and would avoid talking to them as long as he could.

After Signal he joined Beacon where he became a part of team PYCH, it is now their second year and he's ready to do better.

Rose Pink

Ranged combatant with a multitude of powerful and heavily debilitating dust based attacks. But terrible at close range combat.

Strengths and Weaknesses:

+ Powerful Dust Attacks

+ Debilitating Attacks to debuff enemies.

- Weak Close range attacks
- Prone to causing Friendly fire
- Lacks durability and endurance

Semblance:
DustBinding
Paris's Semblance is hereditary being transferred to each member of his family. This Semblance is the power to control and stabilized dust and use it effects to its fullest even without a weapon but he needs to be incredably close to the dust to do so. The main use of this Semblance is that they are able to use a rare type of weapon made out of an Acient Cheery blossom tree that has been infused with dust, that amplify the power of the dust within the weapon and can use it to shoot out powerful lasers beams, for example it can shoot out lasers that freezes, burns, Paralyzes and explode.
