@pokefreaks-resurrection

Hachiko "Fang" Lupin, leader of team FNTM and the only guy on his team at that, was leaving his aforementioned team alone in the cafeteria. The dog faunus had a mixed reputation, some saying he had the best nose or hearing, some saying he was loyal to a fault, and a few girls circulating he was quite doglike, very open to praise and petting. It was a lead to follow for anyone curious enough to trail after him.

Azura looked at Hachiko with interest. The young women had heard the rumors herself, but she really didn't pay much attention to them. However, she was curious why he was on his own at the moment. Deciding to see for herself, Azura went over to Hachiko to ask him. @pokefreaks-resurrection

The Sunnydale Herald Newsletter, Saturday, September 14

XANDER: The center of Sunnydale's Hellmouth was- BUFFY: Under the library. XANDER: Right. Now, exactly where the library was, we have- BUFFY: Principal's office. DAWN: So he's evil? BUFFY: Or in a boatload of danger. XANDER: The last two principals were eaten. Who'd even apply for the job?

[lonepine]

Lone Pine is a small town in New Mexico, near the border, built upon the blood and sweat of late 19th century gold miners. You will be an influencer coming to sign a contract with the trillion-dollar company, Forsythe-Newman Technology Management (FNTM), which is a household name and widely considered to distribute the best, most high-quality film making equipment on the market.

You take a plane to the Albuquerque International Sunport, and from there you head south on the Rail Runner Express, the state-wide railroad. You ride in the train car for several hours, watching the sprawling desert scenery rush past, and notice the presence of humans becoming dauntingly scarce. You disembark in Truth of Consequences, the home of the infamous Toybox Killer, and from there, your contracting company provides a car with a driver to take you the rest of the way down to Lone Pine.

The driver explains that you've been provided with housing, food, and brand-new production equipment in exchange for living in Lone Pine to produce content regarding the eerie paranormal activity reported there. They make extended and uncomfortable eye contact in the rear-view mirror, and when they stop to let you out, you hardly have time to take your bags from the car before the driver peels out and races back down the road from whence you came.

[gunn3r-d4mn3d-d15pl4y]

Finally went and redrew my first set of RWBY OCs from years ago. Formerly Team FNTM (Phantom), they have been rebranded as Team HRBK (Heartbreak)

Info under the cut

Hachiko “Fang” Lupine

Male Dog (Akita) Faunus

A bit of a flirt, having inherited the quality from his late mother, half sister, and his adopted uncle, Fang is the dedicated leader of Team HRBK, treating the rest of his team like sisters. While he's an efficient sharpshooter, he’s sweet like a dog, letting anyone he’s particularly fond of pet him. He has a bad habit of saying what’s on his mind with how much he hears and the scents he picks up.

Weapons: Bad Dogs - Custom dual heavy pistols that can flip into dual daggers. Both bullet and blade can be enhanced with capsules of dust loaded into the weapon. He keeps clips of rubber bullets to rebound his shots.

Semblance: Bloodhound - Passively enhances the user's sense of smell and hearing past that of most animals along with the ability to sense emotions and intent. Unable to be turned off, it makes the user particularly weak to sound or scent based attacks. When focused, the user can track and distinguish between targets for several miles out.

Mesa Rudras

Female Bear Faunus

A former star student of Atlas with an attitude, she transferred to Beacon out of boredom, believing the kingdom to be too stuffy. She has a habit of charging ahead, preferring to go in guns blazing and let her team plan around her. Having lost her arms in her initial attempt at making her weapon, a new set was commissioned by her grandfather's employer, provided he postpone a well deserved retirement.

Weapon: Big Rig - A mechanical great sword that shifts into a dust cannon that’s held from the top of the range pulses before needing to recharge on its own.

Semblance: Technologic - Mesa can control electronic signals to hack into or manipulate electricity based technology, pull up its full schematics, shut down, turn on, take control of its systems, or rewrite its coding. She often jokes that she's never tried messing with anyone's head.

Nepeta Bell

Female Human

Having been raised by sentient cats in the forests of Vale (generations of dust experimentation and breeding), Nepeta has several catlike qualities to her despite being a human. While not as gifted academically, her combat and survival skills are first rate. She tends to ignore personal space, often climbing on people when she wants to feel tall.

Weapons: Catscratch - Dual tri-bladed claws connected to metal and wood gauntlets via large gravity dust crystals that can be launched, retracted or pulled towards each other.

Semblance: Zoomies - Nepeta's perception of time speeds up, making everything seem like it's moving in slow motion, greatly increasing her reaction time.

Tsuguri Kusanagi

Female Human

Despite her secretive look, Tsuguri is basically her team’s mom, making sure to keep everyone's health up to par in and out of fights with her mother's teachings. Otherwise, she’s a somewhat studious girl with a tendency to get wrapped up in her own work, usually going out into the wild to gather herbs to use in homemade medicine.

Weapons: Shadow Lily - A kodachi that swivels into a double bladed staff at the base of the hilt then into a fuma shuriken.

Semblance: Doppelganger - Tsuguri can create a number of featureless silhouette clones of herself and switch places with them at will. These clone are capable of fighting alongside her by repeating or mirroring her actions, even using a copy of her weapon.

"I certainly do enjoy it. Especially from a lovely lady like yourself." He teased. "So, guess I should introduce myself. Name's Hachiko Lupin, but everyone calls me Fang for the most part. I'm the leader of team FNTM. And you are?"
