Dust

Dust is an energy source found all across Remnant.
==Description==
Dust is an energy source found in a crystalized form in nature. Humanity, Humans and Faunus alike, have come to find ways to harness this energy source beyond its raw form. The most common variation is through the use of containers of refined Dust powder, often provided by the Schnee Dust Company. Dust is the primary source of energy used by all forms of technology across Remnant, and a majority of weapons.

===Artificial Dust Types===
Humanity has found a way to create artificial Dust types. It is unclear how this works, but it most likely is done in a similar fashion to combining Dust types in the first place, such as Water and Wind dust fusing to make Ice.
Notable artificial Dust types are:
* Hard-Light - Created in Atlas.
* Metal - Created in Atlas by the Fulmini Dust Company.
* Psionic - Created in Atlas by the Fulmini Dust Company's own Sublimino.
* Sound - Created in Atlas by the Fulmini Dust Company's own Lord Decibel.
==Relation to Semblances==
Multiple Semblances have some form of relation to various Semblances. 
* Aura Extension - Gwen Tennyson can use her Charms of Bezel to integrate Lightning, Gravity, or Fire Dust into her Aura constructs.
* Bad Copy - Albedo Tennyson's Aura transforms his body into a different creature based on the Dust types used.
* Feather Dance - Dani Lancer can utilize different types of Dust in combat by conducting it through her tail features. She can also do this through the rest of her body, though this causes more discomfort and pain, and quickens how fast her Aura drains.
* Glyphs - The Schnee's are able to transfer Dust through their Glyphs in combat.
* Hero Time - Ben Tennyson's Aura transforms his body into a different creature based on the Dust types used.
* High Voltage - Nora Valkyrie can use Lightning Dust to empower herself.
* Killer Quartet - Each of Flynt Coal's clones can utilize Dust from his duplicated weapon.
* Numbing Agent - Hazel Rainart can block out pain to inject Dust crystals into his body for combat.
* Shadows - Blake Belladonna can create clones that are made out of Dust types she has in Gambol Shroud.
It is also possible for Dust to be utilized in Grimm, such as a Geist being able to possess Dust geodes, or Salem integrating Gravity Dust into Monstra to grant it flight.
==Trivia==
* Metal Dust was referenced in the side-series RWBY: The Grimm Campaign when Gravity Dust was misinterpreted.
