Corsac Albain

**Corsac Albain** is a character from the *RWBY* web-animation series.

Corsac is the older brother of Fennec Albain. He is a representative of the White Fang on the continent of Menagerie.

In the XP4 fics, Corsac debuted in the XP4 Heroes Coalition - Remnant Chronicles.

## **Appearance**

Corsac wears a red hood that functions partially as a cloak, made of two pieces held together by yellow buttons and string. He wears a black tunic with two sections extending farther down than the rest at his front, and a hole is cut out for his tail. Both the hood and tunic have white trimming. He also wears detached white sleeves, bound at the mid-bicep and the wrists. Black gloves serve that function and attach to his middle fingers. His white pants are pleated. He wears black open-toed sandals with fabric extending up to his knees.

## **Personality**

Corsac is not too dissimilar from his brother personality-wise. He is a rather soft-spoken individual, but this belies the lengths he is willing to go to promote the White Fang's beliefs in what is best for the Faunus, which includes assassination. Unlike Fennec, Corsac appears more readily willing to follow Adam Taurus' leadership, despite acknowledging the questionable state of Adam's mental health. He acknowledges that Adam's leadership may not last very long, but believes it to be the best course of action for the time being.

Like Fennec, Corsac is shown to be manipulative, convincing Ilia Amitola that assassinating Ghira and Kali Belladonna is necessary, and that Ilia should use her former friendship with Blake Belladonna to help accomplish this.

However, after his brother's death and Blake's rallying speech, Corsac starts to show regret, and to a degree, remorse towards his actions.

In Chapter 2, Corsac, alongside Fennec Albain, were present during Ghira Belladonna's speech in front of the Belladonna Residence in Menagerie when it was suddenly interrupted by Ilia Amitola, calling the Belladonnas traitors, angering and confusing everyone on the process. Both him and his brother took pleasure on this.

In Chapter 5, Corsac, alongside Fennec Albain, are seen inside their hideout somewhere in Menagerie when Ilia Amitola made her presence. The two then told Ilia that Sienna Khan vanished without a trace and Adam Taurus has taken over the White Fang. After telling Ilia their next move, Ilia left the room. The two then watches a holographic message from Adam Taurus telling everyone to slaughter the Belladonna Family and bringing Blake Belladonna to him alive. Then Yuma entered the room and told them that he has taken care off Ghira Belladonna's messenger, much to their pleasure.

In Chapter 8, Corsac, alongside Fennec Albain, made their presence in the Belladonna Residence and prepared themselves to face Ghira Belladonna.

In Chapter 9, Corsac, alongside Fennec Albain, are seen taking on Ghira Belladonna in the burning Belladonna Residence when Tukson arrives to help the Belladonna patriarch. Then Blake Belladonna and Sun Wukong arrives, Ghira then told Blake to look for her mother. After Blake left, the brothers braced themselves when Ghira, Sun and Tukson charges towards them.

In Chapter 10, Corsac, alongside Fennec Albain, are fighting Ghira Belladonna, Sun Wukong and Tukson somewhere in the Belladonna Residence when they came across Blake Belladonna taking on Ilia Amitola. As the fight continues, Corsac is taken out by Ghira and later witnessed Fennec getting crushed by the burning balcony. Later, Corsac tried to attack everyone in anger but is stopped by Ilia. Later, Corsac is captured by the Menagerie Guards.

## **Abilities**

Corsac and his brother Fennec show leadership skills as they lead the assault and both are seen wielding spiral patterned daggers. In "A Perfect Storm", it is shown that their weapons can be loaded with Dust. Corsac's is seen channeling Fire Dust, which can be combined with his brother's Wind Dust in a collaborative attack.

Corsac demonstrates his strength in "True Colors", engaging Ghira, a much larger and stronger opponent, in hand-to-hand combat.

## **Trivia**

* The Albains were planned pre-Volume 1 and were intended to be the original antagonists of the Volume before Roman Torchwick's role was expanded. One of the revealed ideas was for them to use Grimm liquid during the Beacon Academy Initiation.
* Corsac is most likely named after a species of fox known as the Corsac Fox.
