## Personality

Ever since she was little, Ruby has had a romanticized view of the Huntsman profession. She is quick to reveal she wanted to become a huntress in order to be like the great heroes in fairy tales, She has also shown a distinct lack of ability picking up social cues due to being a very open and honest person.

It is revealed that Ruby has had a fear of large crowds, but she has overcome them entirely.

In combat or dangerous situations, she is shown to be quite impulsive and battle eager, This trait contrasts with her adaptability, for she is quite capable of forming attack plans with others in order to take down stronger foes, Ruby begins to take her role as leader of Team RWBY seriously. However, future instances of recklessness are when none of her teammates are near her.

Ruby can be ruthless when it comes to protecting her loved ones.

## Abilities

Ruby skills and abilities far surpassed her peers. Wielding a dangerous weapon like Crescent Rose required strength, balance and adaptability.

Ruby developed skills as a decisive leader, being able to formulate and execute plans with others in order to take down tougher foes, However, perhaps Ruby's greatest strength is her ability to give hope when it is needed most. She has a knack for finding the right words in the right situation, whether when rallying her teammates, comforting demoralized or suffering allies, or trying to sway enemies to her side. While Ruby's willingness to negotiate has occasionally backfired. She has also inspired many with her words, actions and perseverance as a leader and Huntress.

Ruby's sense of balance stands out, particularly in precarious situations like perching on a taut ribbon or running off an exploding airship. Despite her small size, Ruby's physical strength is considerable, given how skillfully she wields the large and bulky Crescent Rose.

Ruby's fighting style relies heavily on her creative uses of and methods for achieving momentum, relying on a combination of her Semblance and Crescent Rose's recoil to allow her to achieve massive impact force, as well as creating slipstreams and even small whirlwinds using her Semblance.

Ruby also has some skills as a seamstress. she made her original outfit herself.

**Weapon**

Ruby's weapon of choice is Crescent Rose. Ruby is self-admittedly obsessed when it comes to weapons, which shows in her complex design and craftsmanship of her weapon, a High-Caliber Sniper-Scythe which she designed herself at Signal, as well as her eye for detail when observing other people's weapons and tools. This weapon can transform between a scythe and a sniper rifle and can fire Dust rounds in either form with massive force.

**Semblance**

Ruby's Semblance, Petal Burst (also known as Speed), allows her to dash with an inhuman speed in whatever direction she chooses, often leaving trails of rose petals in her wake. However, this is, of course, at the cost of Aura so Ruby can't rely on it indefinitely. Ruby is shown to be capable of creating powerful tailwinds with her Semblance; if she gathers enough momentum, the resulting turbulence is capable of lifting people off the ground.

Ruby's Semblance is not like other speed-type Semblances, though she does not elaborate.

Ruby's Semblance allows her to disassemble herself at a molecular level and reassemble at a chosen location, negating her mass. With practice, she has proven able to do the same with anyone she is in contact with, she can carry at least four people along with her. This allows her to go around obstacles or through paths that she would not otherwise fit. She has also proven able to negate gravity while using her Semblance. Her Semblance can be disrupted, forcing her to stop.
