[RWBY] RWBY Shorts

[AJ_Talon]

At some point AI will get good enough that truly autistic fans will be able to redo their favorite TV shows that were turned into utter garbage.

Me? I'd redo RWBY with more volumes at Beacon, make Pyrrha's death actually mean something, not have Ironwood turn fascist, not have Adam turn simp, and have the Ever After actually mean something with as satisfying an end as I could manage. I'd keep the romance light and hinted at, no firm end couples save for Ren and Nora. But no fucking Bumblebee, that's for sure. And a lot of other changes.

I'd need someone to keep my ADHD ass from adding endless subplots but I'd make it into something worthy of Monty.

So I was thinking about cross posting everything I wrote on the SB thread that got thread marked over here, but my QQ name is different from the one I used on SB, so I don't know how that would work, or if it would matter.

My SB name is Dark Knight Zero in case anyone is wondering.

I'd probably spin off Shar'Vel into its own thing pulling some future plot points from Sons Revalations and create an original series.

It honestly looks possible. Effectively your "Legally distinct RWBY with the serial filed off."

Same for me. I just need to know where to start with the idea. What story do I base it off of?

It won't matter, you can easily grab whatever you posted over there and bring it here.

Well you'd probably have to change the setting a bit and make clear what the tech level is.

Honestly given your proclivity for producing military vehicles, scrap the idea that hunters are civilian free agents and that they're part of the army that hunts monsters.

You can make them a sort of Elite Shock Troop school to keep the whole aethstetic of Hunters and their eccentric weapons and unique combat style. Perhaps some joint international initiative if you want to let diverse nationalities clash.

Now are you sticking with shadow monsters or are we going with classic horror beasts? Perhaps instead you may want to rip open a portal to hell and these are literal demons and devils coming through. Basically do what Trench Crusade refuses to do.

Or the beasties are literal "Others" from outside space. Humanity has no idea what they are or what they want but their presence has been detrimental so they must be destroyed.

Probably keep them as Paramilitary and Freelancers-The world is too big to rely only on the military when these monsters are everywhere. As for them?

I'd use the revised Fable for it: Not Salem used her magic to try and bring Not Ozma back to life... And it unleashed the monsters upon humanity, a plague of darkness.

Original sin out of love and an inability to let go.

Fantastic. Now are we keeping ourselves limited to one planet or are we going interstellar? And what's the limitations on that?

One planet, keep it simple. Like Monty I want to take inspiration from anime and JRPGs and keep it to a one world epic adventure.

Though an adventure in space or on the moon not out of the question.

And the team I would work with would probably have Whitley in place of Weiss.

 

[GraveyardShift]

And how do you handle the tech/magic split?

What is the tech level for this world?

And are we keeping dust and aura?
