Weiss Schnee

Weiss Schnee, also known as Ice Queen, Princess, Snow Angel, Snowflake, Nice Weiss and Wise Huntress, is one of the main characters from the RWBY series.
== Charactah Account ==
Weiss is a Huntress, a former student of the now-defunct Beacon Academy, and former heiress of the Schnee Dust Company. Her weapon of choice is a Multi-Action Dust Rapier (MADR) named Myrtenaster.
Weiss appears as a young girl, dressed primarily in light blue, white, and some red. She wears a pale blue bolero jacket over a similarly colored thigh-length dress with a piece of black lace making up the neckline of the dress. The inside of the bolero is red and the sleeves turn blue as they get closer to her wrists. The back of the bolero displays the Schnee Crest, which bears a resemblance to a snowflake. The same design seems to appear when she uses her Semblance. According to Weiss, her dress is a combat skirt, which Ruby Rose also wears.
As the former heiress of the vastly influential Schnee Dust Company, Weiss made her first appearance in the "White" Trailer. After enrolling in Beacon against the wishes of her father, Jacques Schnee, she becomes a member of Team RWBY alongside Ruby Rose, Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long. She is the younger sister of Winter Schnee and the older sister of Whitley Schnee.

== Trivia ==
* Weiss alludes to Snow White from Snow White and the Seven Dwarves by the Brothers Grimm.
* The name Weiss means "white" in German.
** Despite Weiss' name being German, the 'W' in her first name, as well as the 'nee' part of her last name are not pronounced as they would be in German. Monty stated that this is because real-world countries, such as Germany, do not exist in Remnant.
* Weiss' surname Schnee means "snow" in German.
** It may also be a reference to Scheelite, which is a type of tungstate mineral, which has several industrial age applications not unlike dust.
* It was stated by Miles Luna and Kerry Shawcross that Weiss prefers drinking coffee over tea. In "Destiny", Weiss suggests that she and Blake get coffee, but Blake opts for tea instead and it was also mentioned in the Fan Service Podcast.
* Weiss' Huntress license number is 63600-32812-80617.
* Weiss is often addressed by nicknames:
** "Princess", "Snow Angel" or "Ice Queen" by Ruby, Jaune Arc, Neptune Vasilias, Sun, Yang, even Torchwick and the White Fang Lieutenant.
** The nickname "Ice Queen" is also given by Qrow to Winter (Weiss' older sister).
* During an "Ask Me Anything" question and answer session on the Rooster Teeth website, Kara said that Weiss' favorite season is winter, her favorite color is baby blue and her favorite ice cream flavor is blueberry frozen yogurt.
* Weiss has her own official Twitter account at RT_WeissSchnee, like Ruby, Yang, and Jaune, all of which are currently inactive.
* Weiss is a playable character in BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle.
* Weiss appears in the 110th episode of Death Battle, where she faced off against Mitsuru Kirijo from the Persona series but lost due to her over reliance on Ice Dust and Mitsuru being able to absorb Ice with her Persona, and Weiss' limited aura couldn't tank hits as well compared to Mitsuru. She's the only member of Team RWBY to lose their fight.
* On July 19th, 2019, a limited event collaboration between RWBY and SMITE was announced. Team RWBY is confirmed to appear as voiced skins with Weiss as a skin for Freya.
* On June 29th Weiss joins her team, Salem and Qrow as playable skins in Paladins during a crossover with RWBY. She appears as a skin for Furia.
* Weiss' voice actor, Kara Eberle, compares her to Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy from the Harry Potter series .
** Also, if given the choice between fighting one horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses, Weiss would rather fight one horse-sized duck.
* In the official artwork shown at the end of each trailer, Weiss is holding Myrtenaster in her right hand, despite being left-handed and this is because the drawings in the Team RWBY composite are early concepts.
* Weiss' yellow time dilation glyph she uses on Blake during the Checkmate combo attack in "Painting the Town..." is extremely similar to the one used for the "Haste" spell in Dead Fantasy, a series that Monty Oum worked on before RWBY. Monty even refers to it as "Haste" in the commentary.
