Also known as: RubyRose, ルビー・ローズ, ルビーローズ, ルビー
The protagonist of RWBY. She is the "R" in RWBY, and is associated with the color red.
She wields a large Scythe/Gun hybrid weapon named Crescent Rose, a "High-Caliber Sniper-Scythe" (HCSS). Her symbol is a Rose, and red Rose Petals appear when she uses her speed semblance (special ability).
She has Grey Eyes and short two-toned gradient Red Hair/Black Hair, or black with Red Streaks. When in the presence of Grimm (Rwby), her eyes are able to glow brightly with a silvery light. When this ability is used, any Grimm (Rwby) in front of this light will be turned to dust or petrified, depending on how large the Grimm is; very strong ones may be able to partially resist the effect.
Her character design is inspired by Little Red Riding Hood (Fairy Tale Character). She is usually seen in a red Cape or Hooded Cloak secured with Cross-shaped pins. Her default outfit includes a long sleeved Black Dress (with red frills) tied with a Corset, Black Pantyhose, and black Knee Boots with red laces. Her Belt is a Bandolier with large Bullet cartridges. Most of her oufits include a Rose-shaped badge somewhere on them.
Her Beacon School Uniform consists of a white Blouse with Neck Ribbon, brown Blazer, and Plaid Skirt, plus her customary red cape.
Yang Xiao Long is her half-sister. She likes cookies, drinks milk, and has a cheerful disposition.
