[Jeanne Arc is a character in RWBY. She is a Huntress, a student at the Beacon Academy, a member of the now inactive Team RNJR and the leader of the remaining members of Team JNPR. Her weapon of choice is Crocea Mors, which consists of a sword and a sheath that can expand into a shield. The weapon was handed down in her family from her great-great-grandfather, who used it to fight in the Great War.]

[She makes her first appearance towards the end of the first episode, "Ruby Rose", throwing up in the Vale Airship. There, she earned the nickname "Vomit Girl" from Ruby Rose.]

[Jeanne is a tall young woman with fair skin, blond hair and dark-blue eyes. She is quite toned, having strong muscles in her arms, shoulders, and upper chest.]

[During her attendance at Beacon Academy, Jeanne wears a black short-sleeved hoodie with detached reddish-orange sleeves and a dark brown image of the bunny rabbit Pumpkin Pete trimmed in white with cute black round eyes. Covering her hoodie and hiding the Pumpkin Pete symbol is a white diamond-shaped chest plate cut off above her lower abdomen, and placed over her shoulders are a pair of white spaulders with rerebraces set under them. Below, she wears blue jeans with a white patch placed on the left knee and black sneakers which have "left" and "right" written in black on the respective shoes' soles. In Volume 1, Jeanne has elbow guards with cords strung through them and she wears black high tops.]

[She has two belts crisscrossing her waist, both different shades of brown, with a pair of small pouches on them. Jeanne wears brown wrist-length gloves with exposed fingertips and small metal plates over the back. Her sword is strapped to her left hip in a sheath that doubles as a collapsible shield.]

[During her attendance at Beacon, she sleeps in blue full-body pajamas with blue bunny slippers and a white bunny face on its chest.]

[Jeanne begins as an outgoing, goofy, and all-around friendly person. She treats people equally and has no problems expressing herself to strangers and bonds with them easily, showing a lot of confidence. When faced with entirely new social situations, Jeanne's confidence leads to bold behavior. This can become out of hand and backfire especially when pursuing romance. Her voice actor, Miles Luna, admitted this by saying when Jeanne tries too hard it can cause a misunderstanding. At heart, Jeanne is a kind, amiable person and means well. Additionally, Jeanne is prone to get airsick, as seen in "Ruby Rose" and "As Above, So Below".]

[Jeanne maintains her unselfish manner regardless of the situation, going as far as to defend Cardin Winchester, who had been blackmailing her and forcing her to do his work. A strong sense of integrity makes her willing to deliberately put herself in awkward situations, such as wearing a dress in public without a hint of embarrassment to uphold her family motto of not going back on one's word. During conversations, Jeanne never contradicts herself and, while sometimes harsh, is always honest with answers.]

[Jeanne is shown to care for her friends and the people around her, being protective of them and having a sense of responsibility as team leader. She focuses only on her teammates' well-being physically, mentally, and emotionally, disregarding her own to ensure theirs. She steps forward when others threaten her friends, and she has proven herself unwilling to do something that may hurt those she cares about.]

[At first, Jeanne's family lineage leads to an obsession with being a hero. However, she was never formally trained like others in her family, causing her to lack self-esteem and assign a lot of importance to her image as a fighter. She values this image so much that she is willing to act dishonestly to achieve it—even using fake transcripts to be admitted to Beacon. The obsession had made her brash and headstrong in battle, jumping in without considering the risks and behaving predictably offensively.]

[Despite not having it unlocked prior to the Beacon initiation, Pyrrha had noted in "The Emerald Forest" that Jeanne possessed a lot of Aura. This has proved useful over the course of the series as her lack of experience caused her to be hit frequently. Over time, Jeanne would use her shield and her durability to her advantage, taking or deflecting hits from opponents in order to force them within striking range of her sword.]

[During the initiation, Jeanne demonstrated the skills to be an adaptable leader, being willing and able to coordinate with allies while under pressure, such as when a Death Stalker attempts to knock down the bridge her future team stands on.]

[Although she initially didn't have much skill in fighting, she did have considerable physical strength than would be expected out of her. While not at the level of her teammate Nora Valkyrie, she is strong enough to deflect an attack from a giant Death Stalker with her shield as well as decapitate an Ursa Major with a one-handed swing of her sword. During her fight with the Nuckelavee Grimm, she was able to hold back its charge for a few seconds. In her brief bout with Tyrian Callows, she was strong enough to hold him up on her shield. During her brief battle with Cinder, she was able to lock swords with her and not budge. She has also shown at various points in the series that she is capable of launching her teammates into the air from her shield with one arm. Her attacks are also shown to be incredibly strong. She is capable of cutting through the flesh of large Grimm with ease and the great force behind her attacks is made evident when the impact of her blade clashing with Cinder's caused a chain behind her to move despite being several meters away.]

[Jeanne's lack of experience had remained an ongoing problem for her throughout the volumes. Despite her noticeable improvement, evidenced by the speed with which she slays an Ursa in each of the first three volumes, Jeanne would always be the person on Team JNPR that contributed the least in terms of physical feats, much to her frustration. Additionally, while her physical strength is notable, she would rarely show it unless enraged by someone like Cinder and would fly off the handle when doing so.]

[Jeanne Arc is a tall and striking young woman, standing out with her athletic yet graceful build. She has fair, almost porcelain-like skin that contrasts beautifully with her golden-blonde hair. Her hair is medium-length, thick and slightly wavy, typically styled in a loose, slightly tousled fashion that frames her face with a carefree charm. Her bangs are parted subtly to one side, with a few strands often falling over her forehead, softening her features.

Her eyes are a deep, expressive shade of dark blue—intense yet warm, always reflecting her emotions clearly. Whether they’re lit with determination in battle or sparkling with amusement among friends, her gaze is undeniably captivating. Jeanne's facial features are delicate but not overly refined, a perfect blend of strength and gentleness: a soft jawline, a slightly upturned nose, and full, expressive eyebrows that move animatedly with her mood.

She carries herself with a kind of earnest confidence, though her body language often betrays an undercurrent of self-consciousness. Her arms and shoulders are strong and well-toned, shaped by constant training and combat, while her overall physique maintains a natural, healthy athleticism—neither overly muscular nor fragile.

Her signature outfit during her time at Beacon combines practicality with a touch of personal flair. She wears a black short-sleeved hoodie over a reddish-orange undershirt, the hoodie adorned with a stylized image of Pumpkin Pete, a childhood favorite, hidden beneath her chestplate. This white, diamond-shaped armor piece rests securely across her chest, trimmed cleanly and stopping just above her abdomen, giving her a balanced silhouette between combat-readiness and casual wear.

Over her shoulders rest white spaulders reinforced by rerebraces, offering protection without overly restricting her movement. Below, she wears snug blue jeans with a white patch sewn over the left knee—an informal touch hinting at either past scrapes or simple style. On her feet are black sneakers with “left” and “right” humorously labeled on the soles, adding a quirky charm to her ensemble.

When in casual or dorm settings, Jeanne is known to wear full-body blue pajamas, complete with adorable blue bunny slippers and a printed white bunny face on the chest—showing off her softer, more playful side.

Jeanne also wears brown fingerless gloves with small metal plates over the knuckles, reinforcing her grip and giving a touch of toughness to her look. Her sword and shield, Crocea Mors, are worn at her hip—an ever-present reminder of her heritage, her dreams, and the weight of the legacy she’s trying to live up to.]
