***RWBY: Grimm Eclipse* (Grimm Eclipse or GE)** is a video game from Rooster Teeth regarding a second mission to the ruins of Mountain Glenn released on October 13, 2016. The game introduces Doctor Merlot, a key figure in the Mountain Glenn Disaster that killed hundreds of civilians and displaced thousands of orphans including Juniper White.

## Coeur on Grimm Eclipse

On October 14, 2016; Coeur Al'Aran makes his first reference to *Grimm Eclipse*, inquiring the users of the Professor Arc Forum if it was "any good." He states that he has not played it yet.

On April 10, 2017; Coeur states in an Author Note for *Forged Destiny* that he has still not played the game, but read the wiki to gain details regarding the plot. On April 17, he provides further insight, learning that Merlot was responsible for the Mountain Glenn Disaster and using that as precedent for an event of sacrificing a sentinel within the passage of Book 2: Chapter 11.

Vale

**Vale** is a kingdom on Remnant.

## History

It is not known exactly when Vale was founded, but according to Doctor Oobleck, the Valean Secret Service had centuries to establish themselves and their tactics, implying the kingdom itself must be several hundred years old.

## Government

### Known Agencies

Valean Secret Service

Valean Special Police and Recon
Santa Claus

**Santa Claus** (Date Unknown, Year Unknown - December 25, 1 AB) is an omnipresent entity who delivers joy, happiness, and presents to little boys and girls across Remnant. The existence of Santa is frequently disputed among characters, but it is established that he exists within *Professor Arc: The Night before Christmas.*

## Allusions to Santa

When Jaune Arc was younger, he initially believed in Santa; although lost faith in his existence sometime in his teenage years. Some omakes do mention Santa as well, although those are generally considered to be "non-canon" to the context of the story.

It is not known if characters other than Jaune believe in Santa.

### Death

On December 25, 1 AB; Santa ventured out from the North Pole to deliver joy and happiness to the little boys and girls of Remnant. As his flight path brought him over Vale, his sled was shot down by the anti-air defense mechanism of Beacon Academy because Glynda Goodwitch forgot to turn it off, killing three reindeer in the process.

In spite of crashing, Santa survived the incident and made it into the headmaster's office, where he was attacked by Ozpin at around 1:30. Unfortunately, Santa did not have his aura engaged, and succumbed to his wounds thereafter.

It is implied that after this, the Beacon staff in the *Professor Arc* continuity have to deliver joy and happines for the boys and girls of Remnant each year by December 25.

TV Tropes

**TV Tropes** is a website devoted to cataloguing aspects (or 'tropes') of literature, animation, film, and television programs. Several aspects have been referenced across FanFiction discussion, leading to some integration between the two components. In the context of Coeur Al'Aran, he was first referenced on TV Tropes on March 27, 2016 by Nroque18, with several other deconstructions appearing on the website in the years after.

## Timeline

Writing Year 2019

**Writing Year 2019** encapsulates a 365 day period between November 11, 2019, and November 10, 2020. It is the latest period in the chronology of Coeur Al'Aran's writing years.

## Defining Characteristics

### Literary Logistics

According to Coeur, Writing Year 2019 provides a present issue of limiting certain genres. At this point in time, there are two comedy-based genres in Headmaster Arc and Rabbig Among Wolves, a time travel piece in Relic of the Future, and criminal perspectives within future work Null and Rabbit Among Wolves. Coeur is not fond of the idea of writing three comedy pieces a week, since it leads to burnout, but will likely supplement the position using romance with an unusual pairing outside of standard relationships.

Nicholas Arc in The Beacon Civil War

**Nicholas Arc's role and characterization in *The Beacon Civil War***is primarily one of quotations and references by Jaune Arc. Nicholas makes no direct reference, but one piece of advice played an indirect role in initializing the male mobilization to start coordinating as a cohesive entity.

## Biography

At one point, Nicholas told Jaune Arc that "a small bit of charity could go a long way." Jaune uses this piece of advice to give some chocolate to other males in Beacon Academy. Jaune provides another section of advice to Lie Ren from Nicholas as the preface for Chapter 1 of Lie Ren's book on the Beacon Civil War, primarily philosophy about war, mercy, and life before Juniper Arc calls him away.

Professor Arc Omakeverse

The **Professor Arc Omakeverse** encapsulates the end-chapter omakes for *Professor Arc* and *Headmaster Arc*. Since all other standalone works released by Coeur do not have omakes, they constitute as separate works rather than being part of this continuity, no matter how surreal, outlandish, or comedic they may be. The only exception to this rule is "Minimakes" in *Staffroom Chronicles*, which Coeur states are a series of uncompleted omakes that did not make it into the original story.

The following is not necessarily in order of chapter release, rather it is arranged in as close to a chronological order as can be managed with the limited information provided.

## Plot

### Combat Miniskirts

In 10 BB, Glynda was still attending Beacon with her partner Satin Scaralatina and teammates Ozpin and James Ironwood. While in discussion about events preluding the Faunus Rights Revolution, Ozpin suddenly proclaimed that he would become the next headmaster of Beacon and replace the "bitter" teachers. One of the proposed policy changes that Ozpin would make is requiring all huntresses to wear "combat miniskirts", much to the celebration of Ironwood and chagrin of Glynda, who stated that she would "die" before either Ozpin or James forced her in a skirt.

### Pavlonian Cardin

In 1 AB, Cardin Winchester visited Professor Jaune Arc's office regarding his racism against Faunus. Cardin's main issue was that he did not "hate" the Faunus, yet felt obligated to due to his father's miserable experience in the wars. Cardin understands that the Faunus have never done anything to him specifically, but feels like he should to make him proud, even though his father is not present. He states that after the initial episode when he and the other members of CRDL bullied Velvet Scarlatina made him feel "horrible."

Jaune decided that Cardin was suffering from a Pavlonian reaction, deciding that the best way to dissuade Cardin from bullying Velvet is to associate bullying with a negative feeling. A short while later, Cardin encountered Velvet again and made an action to start bullying her via pulling her ears, but before he could engage in the action, he was chaired by Jaune. Sometime later, Jaune would start using an electric jockstrap on Cardin as a means to dissuade bullying, leading him to experience a "painful erection" for three days.
White Lies (Professor Arc)

**"White Lies"** is the fifth chapter of *Professor Arc* published on February 12, 2015.

## Synopsis

Jaune Arc begins his first teaching lesson with Professor Peter Port. Jaune observes details around the room, noting the layout, boards on the back wall, diagrams of Grimm, live Grimm in a cage, and a gold bust of Port. As students are shuffling in, Jaune heads to lock the doors when team RWBY and RVNN enters. After organizing themselves, Port begins telling his stories of his experiences hunting Grimm.

Ruby Rose is struggling to stay awake due to Port's uninteresting presentation of Grimm studies. Observing other characters in the room, she notes Jaune sitting patiently and Blake Belladonna reading a book close to her face. Weiss Schnee reprimands Ruby due to not paying attention, to which Ruby responds by not paying attention. In frustration, Weiss responds that she is a "true hunter" when prompted by Port.

After the class, Ruby talks with Yang Xiao Long and Blake regarding Weiss's emotional situation following the battle with the Boarbatusk. They eventually discuss Jaune as Blake is confused why Yang and Ruby are particular fans of him. Ruby states it is due to his hunter characteristics such as protecting the class and not failing while Yang enjoys the chase and challenge of trying to seduce a professor. Ruby decides to look for Weiss to determine why there is friction between them.

Port congratulates Jaune for achieving his first class. Jaune inquires whether it is risky to sic Grimm on the class and if all classes will be practicals. Port states that it will not be the case due to the logistical difficulties of acquiring Grimm. Port warns Jaune about the unusual ways of females marking their territory, stating he has to resist it due to betting 10,000 lien on his potential relationship. Jaune is surprised by this and realizes Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck and Headmaster Ozpin placed bets as well. Weiss enters the room and apologizes for possibly interrupting, but was hoping to speak to Port. Jaune obligates by leaving to get rest, but hears crying, and investigates to find Ruby in an dissatisfactory state because she is a bad leader. In response, Jaune states everyone is a bad leader because eveyrone needs to learn to become better leaders to become great leaders. Ozpin informs them this is wise advise, as "leaders are based on potential to become strong leaders." After Ruby is comforted and goes away, Ozpin tells Jaune that he will be promoted to a position of counselor as an approachable figure. They engage in a discussion about Velvet Scarlatina and her apathy towards discrimination towards her when Glynda enters and massages her temples due to Ozpin's antics.

Super Saiyan Cyndaquil

Super Saiyan Cyndaqul's Profile Photo

**Super Saiyan Cyndaqil** is a FanFiction writer for pieces including *RWBY* and *My Hero Academia.* According to archives, he is the first known person to have networked with Coeur Al'Aran. It is not known when they first started interacting, but archives from *One Good Turn Deserves Another* suggest they first worked together in December 2014, with the first mention on chapter eight. A refined date cannot be worked out, but according to *Auburn: Original*, Coeur and Cyndaquil started collaborating by chapter 7 of the original *Auburn's* publication. As late as May 23, 2015, Cyndaqil was the only person in Coeur's "Favorite Authors" tab.

As of December 22, 2017, Super Saiyan Cyndaquil has not posted any further updates to his stories.

The Writer Games

***The Writer Games* (TWG)** were a series of 67 anthologies written by Coeur Al'Aran and College Fool within a timespan of 15 minutes when provided with an original prompt. TWG took place between September 26, 2015 and February 19, 2016. It would later inspire the creation of "The Writer Games: Forum Edition" on the Professor Arc Forum on August 25, 2016.

Many plot points and ideas from TWG later appear in Coeur's publications, such as "Bear Witness" for *From Beyond*, "The Beacon Civil War" for *The Beacon Civil War*, "Dating What Daddy Hates" for *Dating What Daddy Hates*, "Weapon" for *Null,* and "Healing Hands" for *Raise*. This makes it a useful source examining how Coeur and CF comes up with plot ideas in the short-term and how they change with more frequent syndication.

Taiyang Xiao Long

Taiyang Xiao Long as depicted in Relic of the Future by Jack Wayne

**Taiyang Xiao Long** (38 BB - ) is the father of both Yang Xiao Long and Ruby Rose. He was originally a student at Beacon Academy as part of Team STRQ before graduating. Shortly after, he married Raven Branwen before she fled and Summer Rose before she died, though not at the same time.

Ruby Rose

Ruby Rose Depicted in Arcanum by Z-Comix

**Ruby Rose** (Date unknown, 15 BB - ) is a character appearing in a majority of literary canons by Coeur Al'Aran. Unlike the original *RWBY* canon, Ruby is often shoved out of the limelight as a deuteragonist or even a minor character, such as within *Not this Time, Fate.*

The first official Coeur publication which centers on Ruby as the main character is the April 2019 piece *Arcanum*.

## Biography

### Early Life

Ruby was born in 15 BB as the second child to Taiyang Xiao Long and the first child to Summer Rose. It is known that some photos exist of Ruby in a young state.

At an undisclosed date, likely around 12 BB, Yang takes Ruby in a wagon to try and find Raven Branwen, who had gone missing two years earlier. They are nearly killed by Beowolves, but are saved in time by Qrow Branwen.

### Death of Summer

In 10 BB, Summer Rose went on a mission to Vacuo and was killed by Tyrian Callows and Hazel Rainart. This unfortunate setback led Taiyang Xiao Long to enter a depressed state, forcing Yang to become a more mature figure for Ruby whilst Taiyang recovered.

### Signal Years

In 2 BB, when Ruby was thirteen, she partnered with another student on a school trip to a fair.

Beacon Academy

**Beacon Academy** is a huntsman academy located within Vale set in a majority of Coeur Al'Aran's fictional works. Within the canon RWBYverse, Beacon collapses from a coordinated attack by the White Fang and Grimm, leading the individuals of RWBY and JNR to venture to Haven in aiding in their defense.

## History

It is not known precisely when Beacon Academy was established in the Coeurverse, but details from Ozpin in chapter 19 of *Headmaster Arc* suggest the institution predates 145 BB. This contradicts information from *RWBY* itself, which states that Beacon was founded 80 BB.

According to Sun Wukong, the last instance when Beacon recruited a student without an application predated Shade Academy. He says that for Shade Academy, this happened around the 80s BB, meaning Beacon had to have recruited a student in an earlier year.

## School Structure

According to Jaune Arc, there are three semesters of school in the year.

## Current Staff

* Teachers
	+ Professor Ozpin - Headmaster
	+ Professor Glynda Goodwitch - Combat Teacher
	+ Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck - History Teacher
	+ Professor Peter Port - Grimm Studies Teacher
* Other Staff
	+ Kitsune-chan - Head Infirmary nurse

## Events

* **2016, Tuesday**: In response to Nordlending expressing interest about the similarities and differences from canon, Coeur states his strategy to deal with mirroring canon without redoing it is by skipping the irrevelant scenes. He reveals his mindset towards points of divergence, which is that authors tend to remake Jaune and have that disparate version of him go through the story. He also notes that, as the story is told in past tense, one potential interpretation is that Jaune is retelling the events to his friends.

When ZonkRT inquires whether a tragic backstory is incoming, Coeur rhetorically asks if he is one to write tragedy, but immediately realizes that he was three-for-three in terms of character deaths in previous stories. The Immortal Doctor Reid also asks about the name of Jaune's first pet, which Coeur responds that it is likely "Kevin" and that this was removed from the original point.

Roman Torchwick

Roman Torchwick depicted in Service with a Smile by mysterywhiteflame

**Roman Torchwick** (29 BB - ) is an antagonist within the canon and literary pieces of Coeur Al'Aran. Depending on how screwed up the timeline is, Roman can serve as either an ally, an antagonist, or a comedic backdrop for the cause of the primary characters. Within the canon material of *RWBY*, he is tossed aside in favor of more fearsome villains such as Cinder Fall, Tyrian Hallows, and Salem by the end of Volume 3; but he plays a greater role within Coeur's literary canons.

He utilizes a gun-cane weapone titled Melodic Cudgel.

## Early Life

Not much is known about about Roman's childhood, but it is known

### Beacon Life

When Roman was attending Beacon academy, he was on the same team as Bartholomew Oobleck, specifically the leader of team 'torch.'

## Trivia

* Roman is one of Coeur's favorite characters.

Supporting Characters in Null

*This page is a work in progress*

In the context of *Null*, there were many characters involved in the story whose perspectives were never shown, including those aligned with, opposed to, and neutral to the common conspiracy to harness the Null zone.

### Neopolitan

**Neopolitan** is a human weapon introduced in chapter 23 whose purpose was to defeat Jaune by exploiting a vulnerability in the Null Zone. When Jaune activates Null, the Aura and Semblance of others around him are removed, leaving them vulnerable to damage. Neo's semblance uses illusions, in which Jaune cannot see where she is unless he deactivates his semblance, at which point she likely would have approached near enough to strike him, effectively using Jaune's strategy of surprise against him.

#### Background

It is not known when Neo was born or when she was taken in by Chivalric Arms, but it is shown that she received extensive combat training with her semblance and physical attacks, unlike Jaune, who was relegated to immobility for experimental purposes.

#### Null from Neo's Perspective

Roman Torchwick initially thought Neo was a child, and was creeped out since she had no clothes. It's not known why Neo had no clothes,

Schnee Dust Company-White Fang relations

**Schnee Dust Company-White** **Fang** **relations** extend for decades shortly after the end of the Faunus Rights Revolution past the Fall of Haven. Relations have generally been negative with the Schnee Dust Company and White Fang unofficially declaring a "war" against the other for perceived misdeeds and transgressions. In recent years, the White Fang intensified raids, ransoms, and executions of members of the SDC. In response, the Schnee Dust Company bolstered their security forces.

A proxy conflict of the ideals of the SDC and White Fang is explored through the conflicts of Weiss Schnee and Blake Belladonna, both being daughters of figures (Jacques Schnee and Ghira Belladonna, respectively) on opposing ends of the argument.

## Background

### Schnee Dust Company

The SDC was established by Nicholas Schnee shortly after the end of the Great War for the purpose of purpose and distributing dust. After several years, corporate leadership was transferred to Jacques Gele, who exponentially increased the profits of the SDC via the sacrifice of some ethical principals and loosening of regulations.

### White Fang

The White Fang started as a political movement after the end of the Faunus Rights Revolution, but became more organized as more individuals joined the cause. Eventually, the organization started to turn more radical under the leadership of Sienna Khan, and factions began developing within the White Fang on whether they should remain peaceful or if they should incorporate more militaristic aspects into their movement.

## History

It is not specified when the first clash between the SDC and White Fang took place, but it is known that they have been actively fighting one another since Sienna Khan's inception into power. Weiss Schnee states that she can recollect family and acquaintences being attacked, tortured, and killed by members of the White Fang.
Team Variations

**Team Variations** within the context of Couerverse literary canons determine who is on which team and how they interact over the course of alternate history. Within several canons, the teams are within the default RWBYverse setting, but others have the teams completely changed, leading to fascinating developments between characters who normally do not interact.
