I think Weiss as Emi's and Yang as Ryuko's voice actors are some of the best pairings on the list.

[Ulvenes]

I have no clue about any of that. :/

[The Templar High Council]

I have no clue about any of that. :/

How tho? Aiden is going to be heading to Leika's class, and I don't think Blake has that class, unless I'm an idiot and there was no Grimm Identifications class in the show.

There is Grimm Identification classes in the RWBY-verse (Professor Port handles it).

The diagrams of various Grimm creatures plus the taxodermic recreation of a Boarbatusk hanging above the whiteboards indicate that it is Grimm Identification/Studies.

Well, he does hunt Grimm for sport as well, and knowing the anatomy of your target (They are training to kill these things after all, not humans) made me believe he was combat.

I think Glynda is the "Combat instructor" while Port is a more Grimm studies and combat teacher. Judging from the make up of his class room and how he teaches I think it's similar to Defense Against the Dark Arts in HP.

TEAM INFORMATION
Team Name: SGRN
Team Members (with short bio):

• > team member 1 <
  Symbol: A white diving swallow on a blue circle background.
  Gender: Female
  Race: Half Faunis Wolf
  Age: 18
  Height: 172 cm
  Weight: 61 kg
  Outfit: Ice Blue, White
  Accessories: Belt, Weapon sheaths.
  Handedness: Ambi
  Hair Color: Light blue on the verge of being white
  Eye Color: Ice blue
  
  Appearance
  Silber has straight shoulder length silvery white hair with a pair of silvery white wolf ears on top of her head. Her eyes are an icy blue color and her skin pale white. She wears a white long sleeve shirt with snap cuffs above the elbow. Over the shirt she wears an ice blue corset and an ice blue hooded cape. She wears ice blue thigh highs and a long flowing ice blue skirt with white lace trimming. The skirt ends at her knees. She wears ice blue boots that end at mid calf. The boots have white soles.
  
  Personality
  Silber was raised as an outcast, her mother thrown out of the family and her father a faunus, her childhood was not easy. As a young girl she was picked on and abused by other children. She got into fights and was depressed and angry. But when a drunk and angry faunis attacked her school and murdered the very children that had bullied her while she hid and watched, to scared to do anything. Satisfaction was not wat she felt. Remorse, guilt. She felt that she should have done something. She decided she would never hurt another person again, and while she may never be able to live a happy life, maybe she can make others lives happy. Thus while kind and gentle, Silber always appears sad.
  
  In combat she is quick, deadly, and serious, especially when lives are on the line. She has never been good at tournaments since she finds it hard to fight others for no reason than just to fight.
  
  She has worked hard all her life. Foregoing friendships and a normal childhood in order to hone her combat skills. All so that she could be able to step in when others were in danger. When she got accepted into Beacon there was no cheering just smiling and hugs among her and her parents. Beacon was not the culmination of some life dream, it was another step, on her path to protect those who couldn’t protect themselves. Another step to relinquish her quilt.
  
  Background
  Silbers mother Eis Schnee was the sister of the mother of Weiss Schnee, therefore making Silber, Weiss’s first cousin. Eis Schnee was always considered a rebel, she often fought with her mother and her father and disagreed with them on many issues. All in all Eis got in trouble. About seventeen years ago Eis’s parents discovered that she was A) pregnant and B) dating a Faunus. Eis was then cast out from the family and disowned. Eis eventually married her Faunus boyfriend Ken’ichi Kasai. They moved into a small apartment and together set forth to start a new life and raise their daughter. They named their daughter Silber for her silvery hair. The two also changed their last name to Schwalbe, Swallow.
  
  Growing up Silber was taught respect and kindness by her parents, but she often questioned why she should be respectful and kind to everyone. Silber was a faunus with a pair of very obvious wolf ears. In pre-school she was bullied and discriminated severely. When she got into elementary school her parents told her everything would be fine that people would be more tolerant, they weren’t. And so she hid, at every possible chance she hid. She began to become angry, she found herself plotting revenge against the students who bullied he. One day however an angry and drunk faunus attacked the school and went on a rampage. All but twelve students were killed. Silber survived because she had been hiding from the bullies in a cupboard. While hiding she witnessed as the enraged faunus murder the students who bullied her while she hid only a few feet away. This incident would stain her conscious the rest of her life.
  
  Throughout the rest of her childhood, Silber found herself wishing that she had been able to do something, to save those students. She didn’t care that they had bullied her, all she cared about was that they had been killed and she hadn’t tried to stop it. It was this grief that set her on the path to becoming a hunter, for she wanted the ability to keep innocent people from getting killed in horribly brutal ways. Working hard, ignoring prejudice, and saving money, Silber was able to make her way all the way to Beacon Academy so that she could finally become a hunter.
  
  One of the things that changed about Silber after the incident was that she never tried to hide being a faunus ever again. Silber acknowledged her heritage and is actually very proud to be a faunus.

  Symbol: A half moon with a wolf howling at it
  Theme: Iron- Within Temptation
  Gender: Male
  Race: Human
  Age: 18
  Height: 213.36cm
  Weight: 267 kg
  Outfit: Dunkelgrau and Black
  Accessories: none
  Handedness: Right
  Hair Color: Blonde
  Eye Color: Blue
  
  
  Appearance
  Grau has short messy blond hair and blue eyes. He wears a dunkelgrau trench coat that splits to at the waist so it doesn’t cover the front of his legs. The coat is worn over a pair of dunkelgrau pants paired with set of Black calf high combat boots and a dunkelgrau military tunic. On his head he wears a dunkelgrau bergmutze. He also wears a pair of black gloves and yellow shooters.
  
  Personality
  Grau is the strong but silent type. He rarely says anything, even his acknowledgments are grunts or shrugs. Many of his friends have often wondered if he is actually capable of talking. Despite his apparently cold demeanor Grau is actually very gentle and kind hearted and cares a lot about his friends and those close to him. Deep down Grau feels both admiration for his adoptive family but also great shame, and wishes to atone for what he did wrong. In a way protecting Silber is his way of doing this to the best of his ability.
  
  Background
  Grau was borne to a happy couple of middle class parents. His parents worked for the Schnee corporation and over the years began to resent it and it’s practices. They began to outright oppose and protest the company and then one day, when Grau was six, both his parents were mysteriously killed.
  
  Grau was left abandoned and on his own. For the next year Grau lived as a street child struggling to get by. Eventually he just couldn’t go on and gave up. Slumped up against the side of building in an alleyway he decided to just starve to death. That was when Adalbert Jaeger, founder and leader of the Jaeger mercenary band found him and took Grau in as his own son. Grau was taught to fight, and by the age of twelve was already a combat worthy member of the band. Grau had finally found a new home.
  
  The Jaeger mercenaries were a band of human and faunus soldiers who, in the war, abandoned their brethren and joined forces to fight for whatever army would pay them the most money. When the war ended the mercenaries began hiring themselves out to private companies. Their biggest contractor of course was the Schnee corporation, which hired them to run security for their more questionable mines. When the company started taking flak for many of the poor labor conditions (specifically following a riot were the Jaeger mercenaries killed 14 workers) the Schnee company started placing all blame on the mercenaries and ended their contracts. The Jaegers were not happy about this and set up a second organization comprised of their elite faunus members. This second organization called themselves the Schwarzer Fux and began launching terrorist raids on the Schnee company. The Jaegers used this as a means to show Schnee just how much they were needed to protect their business. The Jaegers were rehired however, when word got out that it was the Jaegers that created the Schwarzer Fux, the Kingdoms declared the Jaegers to large of a threat. A join military operation was launched and the Jaegers annihilated. Only Grau survived, having been ordered away prior to the battle by his father. Grau then found residence with Devin Colt, a Schnee warehouse clerk and former black market supplier for the Jaegers.
  
  Grau has since learned of just how terrible his adoptive family was, yet still holds hatred for for the Schnee company for their treatment of the Jaegers and the murder of his parents. Grau decided to enroll in Beacon in order to use his skills to help people, and possibly be able to take revenge on Schnee.
• > team member 3 <
  Symbol: A diving purple phoenix with lightning instead of fire.
  Gender: Male
  Race: Human
  Age: 18
  Height: 186 cm
  Weight: 77kg
  Outfit: Black and Dark Purple
  Accessories: Chest armor, leg arrow holsters, right shoulder arrow holster, left wrist sword holder
  Handedness: Right
  Hair Color: Black
  Eye Color: Purple
  
  Appearance
  Ryusei has neck length black hair and purple eyes. He wears black combat cargo pants, black combat boots and a black long sleeve shirt. On his thighs are strapped two arrow holsters. On his chest he wears a plate carrier that somewhat resembles a samurai chestplate. On his left shoulder is a large rectangular arrow holder. On his right wrist is a rectangular holster for the two swords that make ups his bow. The holster and arrow holder can combine to make a sort of surf/snowboard.
  
  Personality
  Ryusei is the quite type. Not mute like Grau, but not talkative like Napier. Napier is the type to not engage in small talk, preferring only to speak if he feel it really matters. That being said he is extremely sarcastic and responds to Napier’s comments and remarks with quick witted comebacks or sarcastic burns. In combat he is calm and collected, using his abilities to keep the team organized and up to date on the battle.
  
  Background
  Ryusei’s family was and is the sworn protectors and best friends to the Savage family. This servitude goes back to the Faunus War. Ryusei’s father and his squad were trapped by Faunus soldiers and it seemed that they were doomed to death. However when all seemed lost when a lone gunship swooped in and eliminated the assaulting Faunus. It turned out that the gunship was piloted by James Savage, son of Curtis Savage the founder and owner of the North Atlas Aircraft Company. James had heard Ryusei’s father’s distress call and separated from his flight, despite being low on fuel and ammo, to save them. James ended up having to ditch the gunship and was picked up by Ryusei’s father who was so grateful he pledged servitude to James and his family. James however was so grateful to Ryusei’s father for taking him back to safety that he made alterations. James said that as a favor for a favor he would make sure that Ryusei’s father and his family would live like kings and that any children they had would grow up as equals not as servant and master. This was how Ryusei and Napier ended up with such a friendly relation.
  
  Growing up Ryusei spent much of his time studying or spending time with Napier. When they entered adolescents Ryusei ended up getting dragged into Napier’s love for combat competition. The two fought together as a team, often besting any that went up against them. However there were those that always stood in their way. People like Pyhrra for instance. While this did annoy Napier it didn’t really cause Ryusei much of a problem.
  
  Because of their relation, but also because of their bond of friendship, when Napier went off to Beacon Ryusei went with him.
• > team member 4 <
  Symbol: A purple flower with a four pointed star in the center.
  Theme: Holding out for a hero - Shreck 2 version
  Gender: Male
  Race: Human
  Age: 18
  Height: 180 cm
  Weight: 77 kg
  Outfit: Black and White
  Accessories: Aviators, weapon sheathes
  Handedness: Ambi
  Hair Color: Brown
  Eye Color: Green
  
  
  Appearance
  Napier has short black hair, which he meticulously combs every day to make himself more attractive, and a pair of napier green eyes. He wears a pair of black slacks with a pair of black and white sneakers and a black dress shirt. On top of all of this he wears a black leather trench coat and a pair of black aviators. He wears his carbine’s strapped to either hip.
  
  Personality
  Napier is probably the most energetic and carefree member of team SGRN. He’s not dark and brooding like it’s leader Silber, a mute like Grau, or reserved like Ryusei. Napier is headstrong, brazen, and arrogant. He’s also extremely charismatic and a total ladies man, but not quite a player. Of course when you're raised as the heir to one of the largest companies in Remnant that may happen to you. So on the outside he’s a charismatic asshole who everyone loves. Like every book however you can’t judge it by it’s cover. In reality Napier is extremely serious. He knows that one day the future of his father's company will rest on his shoulders and that his decisions will affect that future. So while Napier may have a strong image, it’s just that, an image.
  
  Background
  Napier was born into the Savage family, the owners of the mighty North Atlas Aircraft company well known for it’s military airships and aircraft. As a young boy Napier was schooled in the arts of business management, aircraft design, speech writing and giving, and of course combat, aura and the like. His father also floated on many occasions that Napier should think of marrying one of the Schnee children for a merger between the two companies would make the North Atlas Aircraft company the most powerful in the world. As a boy he became close to the son of his father's bodyguard and his own future bodyguard Ryusei. By the time he was thirteen Napier was designing and building model aircraft and airships as well as his own weapons. It was also around this time that he got into tournament fighting.
  
  Napiers first few tournaments went well but he succeeded mostly on his semblance and sheer dumb luck and always lost at some point. Napier however, understood that raw talent alone would not be able to take him far. So he trained, honed his skills and perfected his weapon design. eventually he became one of the best tournament fighters there was. Only to find that time and time again he lost or tied with one person. Pyrrha Nikos. The one obstacle he could for some reason never climb. He swore that one day he would beat her.
  
  Unfortunately when he was shipped off to Beacon by his parents it looked like the opportunities to achieve this goal was beyond his reach. When he learned that both Pyrrha and Weis Schnee would be attending Beacon he quickly realised that it was going to be the perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

Team Loadout:

• > team member 1 weapon <
  Her weapons are a pair of Katar’s with two pistols on either side of the grip. The blade is extendable and retractable and can extend to a total length of 3 feet or retract completely. The entire setup is part of a gauntlet that contains a curved hand guard that covers the entire knuckle area with the pistol barrels and blade sticking out of them.
• > team member 2 weapon <
  Grau’s weapon is a lance and tower shield. The tower shield is tough enough to survive most weapons and Grimm attacks. The lance is also an 88mm bolt action magazine fed recoilless anti-tank rifle. When in firing mode the lande splits open revealing the rifle barrel. When in rifle mode the lance halves can be rotated down becoming stabilisers for the rifle. There is a hatch in the shield that Grau can stick the barrel through to protect himself while he fires it.
• > team member 3 weapon <
  His weapon is a Katana and Wakizashi that combine to form a Yumi bow. Using his aura Ryusei can manipulate the dust in his arrows to get varying effects.
• > team member 4 weapon <
  A pair of carbines. Each carbine is a break open revolving action made with a wood handguard and straight grip wood stock. The barrel, magazine, action and trigger are all made of metal. The trigger is flatter than normal to allow each carbine to be wielded similar to a sword. Running from the end of the barrel (extending over actually by a couple of inches) to the start of the handguard, on the bottom of the gun is a single blade. He hand guard is large than normal to allow the weapon to be easily flipped around and twirled.

Team Semblances:

• > team member 1 semblance <
  Silber’s semblance is she can heat or cool and object, her own body temperature, or the air around to well above boiling and well below freezing. This power combined with the taper on outer blade of each of her weapons, allows her minimal flight by using the effects of thermals and air currents. She often heats or cools her blades depending on the what effect she wants to have.
• > team member 2 semblance <
  Grau’s is strong and so is his aura, but his control is poor and when he gets really into a fight his aura poor’s off of him in visible waves that intimidate his opponents. Grau’s semblance is actually to just boost the base effects of his aura ten fold making himself even stronger and tougher than he already is. He can also poor his aura into his comrades to boost their strengths or smother his opponents under the crushing weight of it.
• > team member 3 semblance <
  Ryusei’s ability allows him to detect Grimm and people within a one mile radius per one hundred feet of elevation. Furthermore he can identify the strength and color of a person’s aura, which in a way allows him discern friends from foe.
• > team member 4 semblance <
  Napiers semblance allows him to see several seconds into the future but only works for events happening within discernible sensory distance. This ability allows him to react to that event making his fighting skills extremely high. However it has it’s limits, he can dodge a bullet, he can dodge three bullets, he can’t dodge machinegun fire.

Team History:When the team was formed the only members that already knew each other were Napier and Ryusei who used their powers to find each other without making contact with anyone else. Grau and Silber stumbled across each other with no prior contact at all. The four met up upon acquiring their relics and made for the safe zone together. However they encountered a large mass of beowolves and ursai backed up by a King Taijitu. At first they fumbled and things were looking bleak despite them all individually having lot's of skill. It was Silber's quick thinking and intelligence that organized the group into a team and allowed them to quickly deal with the enemies. Over the next year the team, duped SGRN "Sea Green", continue to perform valiantly, both as a team and on the individual level.
