That maybe a good idea, though it would be kind of tricky to give an acronym of a team, given the fact that our character names are like:

Ashley Caldwell
Hannah Blikdase
Onyx Dace
Lucas Blixen

I would form a team within a heartbeat, though as I said before, if there are any of us that have ideas for a team acronym, then the concept of a new team will never get off the ground.

A H O S, for the other char that does not have a team. Doesn't the team leader name start first?

The team leader's name does start first; however, given that I'm uncertain whose going to lead the team upon its formation, I have no clue who the team leader is going to be. Maybe Hannah at best and probably not Ashely, since she is more like the assassin of any given team, and considering the fact that Hannah's semblance is literally spawning a total of expendable clones of herself out into the battlefield and having to command them around like if she's a field commander. Otherwise, I'm sort of leaving the position of team leader open for anyone who wants to take that role instead.

So if Hannah is leader then it could be H O S A, H S A O?

Precisely, if there is no one else who is going to taking the role as a team leader.

I do not know if Onyx would be a leader really and we would have to a ask Legatia what they want. Also Lucas already has a team.

Alright then, but before I continue any further, I hate to say this so nonchalantly, but that eliminates Lucas out of the picture now that you've mention that detail. That left us with the following members:

Hannah Blikdase
Ashley Caldwell
Onyx Dace
(Empty Spot)

Whether or not Legatia want to take the role as team leader, Hannah's position as team leader will remain indefinite until said otherwise later on.

Considering Arriety(?) and Adrian are already in teams, I wouldn't use them. That being said, you can go with Team HALO if you have an L.

True. Zimt could be, temporarily perhaps (I don't know that will go) a part of a team. Perhaps the same as Laylas. I dinna know.

Well, the rest of my 3-person team has sort-of vanished.

Yeah and what are our team strengths so far?


In terms of semblances and weapons, here are the statistics:

  • (Ashley - Cryogenic Liquid Mimicry): Ashley can be able to turn into liquid nitrogen (if there is cold air), liquid oxygen or liquid hydrogen (if she is standing in cold water, snow, or ice). This semblance can be very useful when Ashley has to escape from being immobilised by constructions made of ice, or when she has to escape from near-situations in arctic environments (such as, falling off a cliff or drowning in frigid icy water); however, this semblance has some downsides that can either be a curse or a blessing. Being that Ashley is cryogenic liquids when using her semblance, she can be easily spotted on any surface due to the telltale sound of bubbling and generation of mist wherever she is moving, and if she is liquid oxygen and/or liquid hydrogen, she can suffer a sudden explosive death with one spark; however, being that she reduces the temperature of her surrounding environment when using her semblance, she can temporarily become liquid nitrogen and return back to her original human state (albeit with her aura depleted and being covered in soot/ash from the ensuing explosion).
  • (Hannah - Combat Replication): Hannah can spawn clones of herself and command them out in the field like if they were true soldiers; however, unlike similar semblances who specialise in cloning, Hannah's clones are group-orientated and they are otherwise slow to adapt out in the field when left leaderless, but take note that her clones can stick together and hold the ground until they have a commander (specially and strictly, Hannah). In addition, because Hannah's clones do not have any kind of aura, each and every clone are easy to kill with one to three bodyshots (with pistol rounds, arrows/bolts, and buckshot rendered useless by the helmet), and are almost literally walking meatbags; their heads will explode if struck with a large caliber rifle (12.7mm or greater), their limbs will fly off if sliced or shot at in the joints (any greater than 12.7mm), they'll spatter blood all over the place if sliced or shot in the neck, they'll explode into a pile of bloody giblets, body parts, and clothing if struck with a direct explosion, and they will bleed to death if they are left unattended while either groaning or screaming to death as they die slowly and painfully before succumbing to their wounds, unless a fellow comrade can help them up and get them back into action before it is too late. In the worse case scenario, once a clone has died in battle or finished bleeding to death, the corpse begins to slowly decompose into ash and dirt before billowing towards Hannah and reabsorb into her flesh, which can either give away her position, or she will be left coughing and hacking as she breaths and absorbs the remains of her fallen clone soldiers (if she does not have a gas mask on); however, Hannah can be able to respawn a fallen clone soldier when their corpses have completely decompose (albeit, spawning each individual clone soldier will come at the expense of depleting 2% of Hannah's aura, and she can be able to regain that 2% aura from each individual clone that comes back alive from combat).
  • (Onyx - Spectral Sight): Onyx is able to see the aura of any living being (regardless of any given obstacle, whether it be seeing through walls, smoke, or even natural barriers like trees). His semblance comes in handy whenever Onyx or his allies need to keep track of each, or whenever there are any hidden threats (such as, enemies hiding behind thin cover, or camouflaged combatants). Lastly, Onyx's eyes dilate into a bright shade of blue when he is using his semblance.

===()===

  • (Ashley - Frostlite): Frostlite is a transformable weapon, which can turn into a longbow with a simple compound pulley system, or turn into a pair of sabers or machetes. Ashley can be able to effectively launch arrows at an effective range of 220 yards (without the need of raw muscle due to the assistance of the simple compound system); however, beyond 220 yards, the arrows will gradually lose stopping power and speed. In addition, because of Ashley's time in being out in the wilderness for two long years, Frostlite is quite literally a space-age upgrade to Ashley's primitive wooden longbow, as evident by the fact that Frostlite is made of stainless steel reinforced with a titanium inner core and polymer lining to minimise any chance of electric conductivity in case Frostlite were to come into contact with any electric applications.
  • (Hannah - Trofastegin): Although not exactly the most exciting weapon if brought in comparison to other weapons wielded by other huntsmen and huntresses, the Trofastegin is an assault rifle that was originally one of the fewest high quality weapons given standard issued only to the most experienced and well-trained soldiers back when Hannah was in the militia. Personalised and modified by Hannah following after her desertion and reunification with her family, the Trofastegin came equipped with a telescopic bayonet that can be found hidden within an underbarrel shroud (which can be used to deflect bladed weapons, or act as an improvised manual saw). Given the addition of new features and modifications under Hannah's possession, the Trofastegin can take the role as either a mid-range designated marksman rifle (especially when mounted with the low powered scope), a basic yet extremely reliable assault rifle, or a charging weapon (when the telescopic bayonet is in use).
  • (Onyx - Vigilance): Vigilance is an advanced repeating crossbow that can transform into a Woldo. When in the crossbow form, Vigilance can use use both basic bolts and/or specialised Dust bolts; however, the crossbow can suffer from deteriorating accuracy and bolt drop when used for long ranged shots, and is best used at medium range. In addition, Vigilance can collapse on itself to form a Woldo, which it's blade can charged with Dust if needed.

I'd be glad to take on team leader. However, RWBY acronyms go for color first, not based on who would be leader. If Savannah was the lead, I only came up with SHOA- Show- perhaps red, like stage curtains.

SHAD is leagues better, but did we mention a character who has D as an initial?

Are we even allowed to use last initials for team name letters? I'm not entirely sure, but it'd be great if we could.

Ren used it, so why not?

Also, I can't help but read it as "Shade". Fortunately it's also color-related.

Then if there's no objections, I'd say SHAD (Shade/Shadow) would be a great idea.
