## Yang Xiao Long

The daughter of Raven Branwen and Taiyang Xiao Long, Yang Xiao Long is none other than the older sister of Ruby Rose and final member of Team RWBY. After surviving the Battle for Beacon, Yang Xiao Long managed to graduate Beacon Academy and became a traveling Huntress.

She sometimes stops by Beacon Academy every now and then.

## Story in RWBY Fables

Yang Xiao Long much like her sister Ruby Rose attended Beacon Academy to become an adventuress huntress for the sole purpose of finding her mother, Raven Branwen. But during her time at Beacon with her friends and team, her personal goals slowly changed in support of her team, friends and family.

So it was to no one’s surprise that Yang Xiao Long was among the first to jump up to protect everyone she cared about at the Battle for Beacon. Fighting through both Grimm and White Fang Operative thugs, Yang placed herself on the frontlines to find her sister Ruby. While fighting her way through Beacon securing safe zones for the civilians, she eventually came across her partner and friend Blake Belladonna who was being attacked by Adam Taurus of the White Fang.

In a fit of rage, she leapt into battle to save her friend, but she lost her right arm and blacked out in the process.

When she woke up, her team and friends as well as Beacon were saved. Sadly out of all the criminals that were captured, Adam was among the numbers to have escaped. That didn’t sit well with Yang, but she had no choice to sit out for a while due to her injuries. Thankfully, she received a prosthetic right arm from the Kingdom of Atlas for her valor and courage in the Battle for Beacon.

After Beacon Academy was up and running again with Glynda Goodwitch as the new Headmistress, Yang returned with her team to complete their training, thus officially graduating and becoming full fledged Huntresses of Remnant.

Not seeing herself as a Professor at a Huntsmen Academy, Yang travels around Remnant dealing with both Grimm and Bandit problems. But she always finds a way home back to Patch.

## Personality

Yang is described as being a cheerful, energetic, and bright young lady. She is arguably the most flippant, carefree, and adventurous member of her team, frequently making sarcastic comments and jokes even in the heat of battle and often taking combat and hostile situations lightly. She is very sociable and extroverted, even in unfamiliar situations as her love of adventure is the main reason that she decided to become a Huntress.

Yang is quite mature. She is extremely nurturing and motherly towards those in need, particularly toward her younger sister, Ruby, of whom she keeps in contact with when they eventually went their separate ways as Huntresses of Remnant. Yang pushes her into being outgoing and also worries a great deal about her sister across the many battles they fight in.

This protective and encouraging nature extends to also having an effect on both Blake and Weiss who are working as Professors of Beacon Academy.

Much like her teammates, Yang is quite unforgiving towards those who perform acts of evil for any form of ends and hates those who act off of discrimination.

## Weapon : Ember Dogma

Yang's weapon of choice is the single upgraded version Ember Celica, Ember Dogma. Upgraded from her Ember Celica, Ember Dogma is a shield gauntlet which can retract from her bracelet into a full arm gauntlet that allows Yang to combine her punches with shotgun rounds of explosive shots for moderate or short-ranged attacks.

Ember Dogma also comes with a retractable shield that allows her to use a better form of a defense from incoming attacks.

## Semblance : Burn

Yang's Semblance, Burn lets her absorb kinetic energy from every blow she takes and use it to make herself more powerful; this is a form of kinetic energy absorption, with Yang subsequently redirecting said energy against her opponent with double the amount of force.

As a side-effect of her Semblance, Yang's eyes turn red and her hair sometimes begins glowing and even becomes covered in flames.

Yang's Semblance does not make her angry, but anger has sometimes led her to impulsively activate it.
