Yang Xiao Long

A once happy and cheerful girl, now depressed. A member of Team RWBY, which was broken up after the Fall of Beacon. She had her arm cut off by Adam Taurus during the Fall of Beacon. She is depressed after the loss of her right arm and Beacon's fall.

Yang is a tall, fair-skinned young woman with lilac eyes and long, thick, wavy bright golden hair that fades to pale gold at the tips with a cowlick sticking out at the top, greatly resembling her mother. When her Semblance is active, her eyes become red and her hair gains a fiery glow.

Yang is a cheerful, energetic, and bright young lady. She is arguably the most flippant, carefree, and adventurous member of her team, frequently making sarcastic comments and jokes even in the heat of battle and often taking combat and hostile situations lightly.

She enjoys puns.

However, after the loss of her right arm, she is closed off and depressed, lashing out when she feels like she is being pitied.

The mention of her missing partner, Blake Belladonna, agitates her. She feels as if Blake abandoned her.

After the deaths of Pyrrha Nikos and Penny Polendina, the Fall of Beacon, the losses of her right arm and her partner Blake, Yang sunk into a reclusive depression.

Her little sister, and team leader, Ruby Rose left weeks ago to find the people responsible.

Yang suffers from PTSD.

Yang's Semblance, Burn, lets her absorb kinetic energy from every blow she takes and use it to make herself more powerful; this is a form of kinetic energy absorption, with Yang subsequently redirecting said energy against her opponent with double the amount of force. In simpler terms, getting hit makers her hit harder.

Yang's weapon of choice is Ember Celica, it is radically different compared to those used by her teammates, being a pair of gauntlets which can retract into bracelets. Yang's fighting style involves combining her punches with explosive shots from Ember Celica for moderate or short-ranged attacks.

Her mother is Raven Branwen, who left her when she was very young. This is where her abandonment issues stem from.

James Ironwood gifted her a robotic prosthetic arm, which she refuses to wear due to her depression.
