Description I'm gonna be one of the fans that want Pyrrha back to life. However, I always acknowledge that reviving the dead is bullshit. But the least BS way I can think of is having Salem perform necromancy (going to presume she can), resurrect Pyrrha Nikos, instill dark power into her, and make a deadly villain out of her who can summon more lances via dark red portals (same one used by Cinder and Raven) which she can control using her enhanced Semblance. She is faster and stronger than before, but forgoes defense and relies more on strength and range, although she can still perform deceptive feats using her teleportation powers. My current name for this Pyrrha, go figure, is Pyrrha Necros.

She can also summon dark copies of Jaune Arc to serve her (inspired by Cia and her Dark Links from Hyrule Warriors). These clones are initially stronger and more capable fighters than their original counterpart. They can absorb Dust elements, completely embodying the Dust and wielding their elements (albeit one element for each clone). And because of their shields and superior defense, they can more than make up for Necros' own lack of defense should she summon them in battle. Their shields each have a symbol resembling the combination of both Jaune and Pyrrha's emblems (her spear over his crescents).

Now personality-wise, Necros is a complete opposite to Nikos. She is arrogant, harsh, condescending, sadistic, ruthless, vengeful, bloodthirsty, power-hungry, and almost pure evil. I say "almost" because she still retains her love for Jaune but to the point of lust and obsession, strong enough to even resist Salem at times. In Volume 4, I want Jaune to pursue and try to free Pyrrha from Salem's power and bring her back for good, while Pyrrha Necros will try to get Jaune to join her side. I also expect her to express some jealously towards Ruby for "replacing" her among the team. Despite following Salem, Necros' motives are mostly fueled by an accumulation of all her stress and negative emotions buried deep inside her as Nikos. She has a bitter grudge against the world--the way it works, the systems used by the four kingdoms and all its huntsmen and huntresses--blaming it all to be the reason for her separation from Jaune, the only person she genuinely cares for. As such, she wishes to completely destroy the current world and recreate a new one where she and Jaune can be together forever. However, as long as Jaune is still on the opposing side, Necros is not above lashing out against him or engaging him in combat, attempting anything she can to force him into submission. In a sense, she has yandere-like tendencies towards him. Necros would even dismiss her original "destiny" of saving the world, asserting that her only real destiny must be to be with Jaune forever. So although her love for Jaune is her driving force, it is also the only source of light in her heart that continues to prevent her from being completely wrapped in darkness; henceforth it is a force even Salem cannot conquer. (Yeah I know, power of love, cheesy, don't normally use it, but Jaune and Pyrrha is an exception for me; it just has a special place in my heart for reasons.) Of course, the chances of me getting what I want in a series has always been painfully low but hey, gotta pour these ideas out somewhere and this looks as good a place as any.Β 

As for her appearance here, yes, her attire is much bolder and more revealing, with black sickled motifs everywhere. Her hair is jagged too and has black highlights. Those diamond shaped patterns on her trousers are holes inspired by Ghirahim from Zelda: Skyward Sword. She has dark tattoos on her arms, neck, and abdoment; she wears eye make-up and black earrings; wears a black crown; has sharp canines, and a long tongue (I have my fetish). Her boots expose her knees which have her emblem. Her spears are longer and have bigger-wedges at the end; they are more dangerous than her usual Milo.

Now, reviving a dead character that I like is only one of the reasons for all this. Other reasons include:
1. Incomplete teams are just hard for me to look at sometimes, even if Ruby's with the rest of JNPR.
2. If Volume 4 is indeed starring Ruby and JN_R for the most part, an evil Pyrrha could make for a fitting antagonist.
3. Pyrrha has always been so renowned for her power and skills among her generation that I'd love to see just how threatening she can be as a villain given some enhancements.
4. If Jaune does continue to train and become stronger, him vs Pyrrha would be called for. If he can defeat Pyrrha and even purify her (and bring her back for good), then that could be a great testament to his growth and development as both a fighter and a character.

Yeah in my original prediction for Vol 4, I envisioned Blake being a "Persephone" to an OC named Hades Mepheon, a White Fang rival to Adam.

I'm thinking Pyrrha is and in fact she is not the fall maiden but in fact, the spring maiden, perhaps it passes to her while corrupted and it cures her, peraps with a piece of her soul inside Jaune its literally on his lips, and kissing her returns the soul and with it her new powers, thus she's reborn as the spring maiden(plus this can allude to a fairy tale 'true loves kiss can break any evil spell')

Can't say I'm a fan of that. Not only does it require a previous spring Maiden (instead suddenly becoming one after being purified from evil), Pyrrha has already been associated with Fall even without becoming a Maiden (colors, the theme of gratitude, etc.). Making her the spring maiden just seems like such a forced and unnatural idea, to say the least.

TheCrossoverer89 In reply to CapricornGuy [2017-01-05 00:59:02 +0000 UTC]

True, but who says she gets new armor after that's more spring-ish(with new lighter colors, plus her color is a shade of pomegranate), perhaps she kills the spring maiden (or her puppeteers body while her soul is inside Jaune) it clings to Jaune's lips, not working but rather waiting for Jaune to return her soul to her body and thus the powers can finally reach the new candidate, giving Pyrrha new purpose and a new destiny

Also RT tends to purposely misdirect things, I think Blake is a definite for fall, plus spring and Pyrrha have green eyes while Blake and fall have amber eyes like Cinder, the problem was the process was forced, it wasn't naturally passed, Cinder did that and Ozpin attempted before

When I say forced, I meant on RT's part. Either way I really don't like the idea of changing Pyrrha's seasonal theme. Surround her with one and I don't want to see a second. Also, I'm not going to think of Blake as a Fall just because of eye color. If Team RWBY were to become the maidens, I'd pick Ruby to be the Fall Maiden. The wind element suits her and her weapon is a scythe (associated with reaping/harvesting, Fall imagery). More importantly Cinder is most likely to be Ruby's archnemesis so Ruby can kill her to obtain the Fall Maiden's power.

yeah I guess I should say "Open Minded" saying it in the wrong way can sound smug, I just like to play around with ideas

I think there are 12 guardians in total and a wizard (like I said I liked to play with ideas)

Silver and Red(?) eyed guardians-The Sun and Moon-Yang and Ruby

4 seasonal maidens-Spring,Summer,Fall,Winter(Pyrrha, Nora,Blake,and Weiss)

2 somethings-something-(Sage and Scarlet?)

and a Wizard-Time-Ozpin/Oscar

You said 12 but I counted 9. Plus if you ask me, Team RWBY's practically already the four maidens. Yang's summer, Weiss' winter, Ruby's fall, and Blake would be spring. Admittedly the last one is harder to justify, but (1) there is the theme of renewal that she's looking to bring and (2) her powers can compliment well with delicate yet unpredictable gimmicks of spring (lots of flora and vegetation, ideal environments for stealth and just animals like herself in general). Also, excluding Jaune, Ren, Sun, and Neptune leaves a bad taste in my mouth whenever you already included some of their teammates. Ozpin/Oscar can easily be something separate from the 12. They're already exceptional in more ways than one.Β

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing about Salem being a "Fairy Godmother" to Cinder. Judging from Cinder's personality and desires, she just might have lived with a shitty surrogate family just like her counterpart did until she joined Salem.

I just realized that it might not be necessary to give Salem necromancy for this to work, we already know that teleportation exists in this show (plus it seems odd that RT would use the same particle effect for Pyrrha's "disintegration" as they did for Cinder's magical arrow trick) and it's implied that the person Salem is talking to in the stinger is Ozpin and he must have gotten to her somehow. Maybe Cinder teleported both Pyrrha and Ozpin to her mistress.

This might just be me following my golden rule: Don't assume a character's dead unless there's a body. But it's both plausible enough and foreshadowed enough that I can see RT doing it.

Just noticed the edit. Yeah, I know one other person that also has that rule (you're not Baylaust are you?) Although someone who would assume she's dead what just use the disintegration as proof. But you know me by now, I can see otherwise.

66666 In reply to CapricornGuy [2016-04-28 18:11:13 +0000 UTC]

Baywho?

To me the disintegration bit is just suspicious, pretty much all of Cinders actions were done to advance her goals. So why disintegrate Pyrrha? If she wanted to leave a message along the lines of "the invincible girl couldn't stop me, what makes you think you can?" a corpse would be far more effective. If it was done to make sure she was dead decapitating her would be simpler.

Plus the fact that RT's comment's on Pyrrha try to make you think she's dead but never outright say it causes a little voice in my head to scream "SHE'S COMING BACK".

CapricornGuy In reply to 66666 [2016-04-28 19:47:00 +0000 UTC]

My thoughts exactly! The arrow alone would've sufficed in delivering any message.

I'd also like to go back to one of Cinder's earlier quotes about overpowering the enemy vs taking away what power they have. They're supposed to be different, but if Cinder really killed her like that, then what would be the difference?

Instead, to me it would make sense to interpret that as taking away their power and using it for "ourselves."

That said I stand by my earlier comment that this would more likely happen in season 5 or 6, The angst cow needs milking and that takes time.

Also I came across this fanfic that seems to be a perfect fit for this www.fanfiction.net/s/11919641/… Ok maybe not completely perfect but very close.

CapricornGuy In reply to 66666 [2016-04-29 06:18:14 +0000 UTC]

I don't have time to read it, but as far as us viewers are concerned, it will already be a long enough wait for Volume 4, plenty of time for the "angst cow milking." But actually even within the series, seeing how the time transitioned from fall to winter and how the rest of JNPR are already looking sharp after the incident, that too is plenty of time.

But if I hadn't mentioned this before, the reasons it will work for Volume 4 are:

1. Volume 4 is set during the winter, a fitting season to involve the dead (or undead), so that by spring, if Pyrrha returns to the side of good, it'd be fitting.
Β - Although of course, since spring can also convey a theme of rebirth, purifying before summer (let's say volume 6), that too would fit symbolically. But to be fair, I'm just assuming each volume is literally a season, it may differ.

2. More importantly than seasonal themes, Volume 4 looks like it will be THE RNJR volume, showcasing more of the rest Team JN_R. For that reason, Pyrrha Necros would be all the more fitting for a volume-length villain. I don't want Pyrrha Necros to drag on nor do I want Team JNPR/RNJR to take RWBY's place as mains beyond Volume 4, even if I like JNPR better in general. That being said, Reason number 2 is the main reason I'm against it happening in Season 5 or later.

3. On an additional note, because the incident was rather recent, it would be a perfect opportunity for Salem to further taunt or berate Ozpin's decisions (assuming he's her prisoner) by bringing Pyrrha back. "This was your student, you sacrificed her all for nothing, this is what you get, have a good look cuz now she's your enemy..." yadda yadda.

66666 In reply to CapricornGuy [2016-04-29 13:18:13 +0000 UTC]

Personally I thing Spring would be a better seasonal theme for this than winter but that's because for me spring starts horribly (after the snow melts but before everything starts blooming) but ends beautifully. Which now that I think about it is probably a good metaphor for how this would go, going from horrifying "he's mine and if you get between us I'll kill you myself" to what is probably going to be the most heartwarming moment in the seriesΒ  "I love you Pyrrha" "I love you too Jaune".

Also I don't think that the rest of team RWBY will be out of focus and I would love to see these happen is volume 4

1. Weiss call the old man out/punch him in the face
2. Blake either link up with team RNJR or go full blown ninja against the white fang
2. Yang recover from her depression, get a robot arm and start kicking ass and taking names

Team RWBY will still have scenes sure, but I expect RNJR to be the main focus of V4.

Can't say I feel the same way about Spring as you do, so I'm not with you there. I'm all for Pyrrha Necros in Volume 4 and that's not changing until the actual show proves otherwise.

That's actually very possible! The disintegration thing did seem a little too extra. As for Ozpin, my 1st guess was that Salem intervened and took him away, since it looked like Ozpin was still stronger than Cinder.

Maybe not the heart, but the arrow did protrude out of Pyrrha's back as well. I'd imagine some vital area might've been damaged. Maybe the lung? The spine? Β

OK she might be paralyzed or have a punctured lung. But we already know that something happened to Ironwood that necessitated halving half his body replaced so it's likely that remnant's medical tech can treat that. And if she doesn't have access to that wherever she is then it's likely that Salem can heal her with whatever powers RT sees fit to give her.

CapricornGuy In reply to Monksyd [2016-04-24 14:01:26 +0000 UTC]

Personally, I don't enjoy seeing depressing material being spread like that but that's just me. Anyways, if Vol 4 is going to focus on the remaining JNPR members (aka RNJR), it would fit most for Pyrrha Necros to be the main villain for Vol 4.

Moreover, if Vol 4 will be set in the winter for about the whole time, then symbolically, dealing with someone who's already died would befit the season. Bringing her back for good by the end would fit the transition into the brighter spring.

As for Penny, what I have in mind is for Neo to take over her. If my theory is correct and Neo IS the computer virus Cinder's faction have been using, taking over Penny would be easy enough for her as long as the body is fixed. And assuming Roman has survived, if Neo returns to him while possessing Penny, that can mirror the relationship between their inspirations--Pinocchio and Candlewick from the same fairy tale.

One of the things I want Pyrrha Necros to do early in Vol 4 is to trash Atlas. While doing so, she can let Neo search for Penny and maybe even kill her creator.

So by having both dead characters return as enemies in the same volume, even temporarily, we can avoid repeating sth like that in a 2nd volume.

Speaking of which, as I've spoken with some1 else about it, in Vol 5, I want the focus to be on dealing with the White Fang with Adam as the main volume antagonist. But that's a topic of its own.

Neo...is a virus? I've...never heard of that theory. I always though Neo was someone Roman found and started looking after and so she started helping him. When Roman said "It's what I can't afford to lose" I though he meant Neo. Anyway, back to Pyrrah, her thashing Atlas as RNJR go to Haven would be awesome! Winter tries to fight her off with the military and her father as she send Weiss away to find Ruby, Blake does...Blake things, I don't know and Yang snaps out of her depression and begins training again. Despite everyone wanting her to get a mechanical arm, I'd think it would be better if she learned to fight one handed with kicks thrown in instead, like a certain apprentice assassin.

CapricornGuy In reply to Monksyd [2016-04-24 18:32:57 +0000 UTC]

I don't really want Yang to use kicks. Fists and punches are her thing, and I'd like to keep that dynamic between her and Mercury. So I'm with the mech arm group. However, sticking with the winter to spring theme, I want her get out of her depression after seeing all her friends return and then get a nice golden arm at the end of volume 4.

It is possible that Neo may have been a human Roman knew before she became a digital being (may explain why she never speaks), not to mention one that may have power data from Cinder, Mercury, and Emerald:Β capricornguy.deviantart.com/ar… Like Emerald, she can cast illusions. Like Mercury she is a fluid kick-fighter. Like Cinder, her powers possess the motif of glass shards, including her illusions and disguises. More over, even the "glass shards" she shows look digital to me.

As for Necros attacking Atlas, maybe Weiss' father can send her to find Ruby at a later time but I want her to be amidst the chaos (partly to show that Weiss, one of the 4 main characters is still involved in some of the big conflicts in Volume 4 in some way shape or form). I want to see her fighting a bunch of Jaune clones that are stealing her father's co.'s Dust. Necros will take pleasure at "Jaune" attacking the girl the original used to crush on, until she is interrupted by Ironwood. She goes to fight him but easily bends his right half out of shape, critically injuring him. Pyrrha then attempts to finish him off until Winter arrives, fights her and loses. In desperation, Weiss goes to defend her sister and summons the whole ice armor, knocking Pyrrha some distance back before collapsing herself (due to aura taxation). Furious, Pyrrha attempts to kill the Schnees until their father arrives repels Pyrrha and teleports them away with some space-time Glyph. At around then, Salem calls her back. (Note: Pyrrha may be obedient to Salem now, but later on, she'll act on her own volition.)Β 

Back at home, as Weiss and Winter's father heal them both with a healing Glyph, Weiss is breaking down in tears and despairs about all that has happened, until Winter comforts her, compliments her mastering her summoning, reminds her what her goal as both a huntress and a heiress is, and encourages her to continue her journey and whatnot. Sometime later, they train together.

Thanks! Yeah, fanfic's a good word to describe it as it is; but oh how I hope Volume 4 won't be too far from my ideas. Monty's got a plan for the whole thing detailed or not and I'm trying to connect as many dots as I can to come up with predictions and theories that can satisfy both my bias as well as whatever fairy tale connection, what possible hints may have already been provided, the general tone of it, all that good stuff.

I guess if there's anything that may challenge what I want it's that the show becoming darker, which is something I have mixed feelings about. I don't enjoy depressing material but I don't agree with trying to escape it either, and yet sometimes I feel like that's what I'm doing when I create someone like Pyrrha Necros. So to compensate for it, I want her to be near saturated with darkness. But to me, that still isn't depressing and dark enough and yet when people tell me how scary it is, it does please me because the impression that I'm getting from volume 3 is that the scarier something is, the more likely it can happen (and here it's in a way that I can enjoy)! But even in those darkest moments, there's always some hint of hope, one example being the cut to Penny's "father" after her destruction.

And so, using the seasons as an excuse, I want Volume 4 to have it's dark, cold winter moments but end with a truly radiant light of spring.Β

This is a pretty good idea. But to be honest I think this plot arc would work better if this happened in season 5 or even 6 and beginning at the end of season stinger perhaps going like this.
Jaune Arc knocked out and separated from the rest of RNJR comes to in a cave surrounded by grim, after a short panic he realizes that the grim are barely reacting to his presence. He idly asks "Why aren't they attacking?"Β  to which a voice answers "Because I'm not letting them". He looks around startled demanding whoever said that to show herself. A few moments later Pyrrha walks out of the shadows slowly going to Jaune, she then embraces Jaune looks him in the eye and speaks four words "Hello again, my love" cut to black.

CapricornGuy In reply to 66666 [2016-04-22 01:48:22 +0000 UTC]

I chose season 4 because I thought that might be the one and only RNJR season for a while and I figured Pyrrha Necros would be a fitting enough antagonist for this one alone. One volume to resolve all that, I'm totally okay with. Besides, my guess is volume 4 is mostly going to take place in the winter, which at least in some cultures has a theme of death. If Jaune can successfully bring Pyrrha back by the end of vol 4 (i.e. springtime), it too will be very fitting indeed, with spring representing vitality/birth/in this case rebirth (which is also the theme of Ren's the symbol--the lotus!)

Also, in addition to all that I've imagined for Volume 4, I have my own ideas and wishes for Volumes 5 and 6--needless to say, none of them might actually happen but briefly here's what I have in mind:

Vol 5: More on the White Fang with Adam Taurus being an even bigger antagonist (if not the main for just this volume) and new White Fang members being introduced, one of whom I'd like to see compete with Adam for power and control over the organization. (I actually have an OC in mind called Hades Mepheon, but since OCs are OCs, I can leave it to RT to create whomever.)

Vol 6: By the end of season 5, Adam's White Fang rival (so let's just call him Hades for now) usurps the organization after Adam's latest defeat. However, Adam will still have supporters of his own, thus dividing the White Fang into two factions eventually leading to a 3-way war between them and our heroes (or maybe even 4-way depending on where Salem and Cinder's faction would be in all this).

I'd tell more about where to put Salem in all this since she would be one to contribute but I don't know enough about her to say much. But yeah, these are my ideas and so-called "predictions", pretty fanficky but there you have it (even more so my Vol 7 idea which is really just an exodus of my own OCs so no point going over that one lol!)

Makes sense from a symbolic standpoint but a lot buildup is required for something as big as this, more than I think 1 volume can handle.

Though to be fair I'm just nitpicking at this point, I love the idea you have here and wouldn't mind seeing you expand on this

For me I think his ideas for volumes 4 through 6 should happen simultaneously, as to provide better pacing for the story.Β 

Although I still think Ruby is not going to be the one to save the day at the end.

Yeah I haven't given as much as thought to Vol 5 and 6 as I have with Vol 4 (but of course). But however much buildup there should be, all of the volumes thus far seem to speed things up rather quickly. Volume 1 seemed to have covered a full semester. Volume 2, I'm not 100% sure how much time has passed between chapters 4 and 5, maybe I'm just forgetful. Volume 3, by chapter 6, we're already in the finals and ch 7 could condense at least a summary of some of the villains' backstory. I dunno, I just feel like there's a lot that can be done within a single season even if it doesn't already look like it.

Damn thats scary. Imagine a scene where pyrrha and jaune fight and she revealed what actually happened during the fight with the ursa that attacked him and cardin and he lost all confidence he had since

He really wouldn't lose all that confidence for at least 2 reasons:
(1) Compared to his supposed fight with Necros here, that Ursa fight would seem so minor; plus he knows how much he depended on Pyrrha in the past in general.
(2) For him to even fight Pyrrha, he would have to be a lot stronger than before. I imagined him undergoing rigorous training from Qrow.

Hmmm never thought about that. I really thought it would have been a bomber for him

Only the first time seeing her like this would shock him, maybe even make him despair, but only briefly. If he sees that Pyrrha is alive one way or another, he will gain hope like never before and swear to bring her back and that can motivate to want to train harder and Qrow seems like a valid mentor for him (dare I compare it to Sakura--who masters healing powers--training under Tsunade--not to mention another drinker--from Naruto? Esp. since Jaune's Semblance just might have to do with healing/regeneration?)

I thought anyone with aura could heal small wounds

I don't think so. From what I gather, aura is meant to protect, not necessarily heal. Jaune's the only person we've ever seen that could heal himself from his aura so I'm sure it's unique to him.

Yeah i got to admit that it would be original that jaune would have some form of defensive semblence as the others all have offense ones

Defensive and restorative--some life based power.
