Welcome to the August AU Planning Meme for Daybreak Academy! This post is intended to help prospective players plot their AU and figure out who their characters are in this setting and where they want to go, as well as work together with other players to plan future CR, build Secret Societies and Clubs, and generally determine where they want to start their characters, and where they want them to go. In addition to posting up the form, you are encouraged to tag around to other people's forms and discuss potential CR and plans with them. This post is an open forum for all prospective players to hash out interesting ideas for their characters ahead of joining the game.
Not sure where to start? Feel free to look through the Premise and FAQ for notes on what the game is about, and what to expect. We also encourage you to take a look at our information for in-setting Powers and Secret Societies to help flesh out your character's backstory.
Please note, simply posting here is not enough to guarantee your spot in the game. If you are interested in playing a character, you will want to Reserve them.

PLAYER NAME: Erica
CHARACTER NAME: Jaune Arc
CANON: RWBY
BLURB: Jaune enrolled in Beacon Academy the same year as Ruby and was also made team leader like her. He started out as very untrained and frankly fairly weak, but thanks to the support of his friends and training at school he got better. And then Beacon fell and he lost a truly important person to him. He joined Ruby and his remaining teammates on a quest across Remnant to solve the mysteries behind the fall of Beacon. He’s gotten in over his head several times on that journey, but continues to improve as a fighter and a leader.
AU INFORMATION
CHARACTER AU NAME: Jaune Arc
STUDENT OR FACULTY?: Student
CHARACTER BLURB: Jaune Arc was nothing to write home about. One of the youngest of a large family and the only male-child, when he was young he was expected to take up the mantle of a Rune Guard like his father and grand-father before him. However, as time passed, it became apparent that Jaune just didn’t have the aptitude for it and resigned himself to a normal, simple life on the farm. He was the weak one, but he had a good head on his shoulders and his family eventually dropped any mention of going into the Rune Guard. Although, that doesn’t necessarily mean that Jaune stopped dreaming of it.
So it was a little surprising to everyone when Jaune showed potential as a Candle. He was a late bloomer, his power not manifesting itself until he was nearly 15, but it flared big when it did. His parents decided pretty quickly that Jaune should transfer to Daybreak, but it wasn’t exactly something he was thrilled about. He doesn’t like to talk about it and feels like he’s grossly behind everyone else in terms of ability and performance, still usually struggling with his abilities.
PRE-ESTABLISHED CR:
The Arc Family has several famous members who serve or have served as Rune Guards in the past. They are especially well known for their shield constructs.
Students, since he is 17 and has been attending Daybreak for a few years now? Although, he’s pretty useless and probably has a reputation as being the bullied kid.
DESIRED CR:
Friendships and people to make him feel useful, probably help him build his self-esteem as well.
COMBAT TRAINING...cause Jaune sucks at fighting but is determined to get better
OTHER:
Thinking about giving Jaune a sword/shield as part of the Rune Guard background, it’s from his great-grandfather, but since Rune’s are pretty custom-fit it doesn’t have much of its magical property left. Or so it seems. Jaune is pretty stubborn about getting it to work.
Candle ability will likely be some sort of defense/shield power or maybe healing.

hello hello! i am here for both friendship and combat training. i am SO excited to see how he develops in this game! i'll be tagging you with ruby, obviously, but i also have an OC (anastasia) who's probably going to try to get into a rune guard... and rizavi from voltron who's a mess and would be super fun to bounce off of jaune with.

:3 Thanks for pointing me in the direction as I have greatly missed playing Jaune. It'll be a weird mix of early canon Jaune but maybe not QUITE as pathetic? IDK, still working it out in my head. But obviously these two will need to have a friendship all over again.
I'm obviously not sure HOW famous Jaune's family might be, but it'd be pretty cool if some people had heard of the Arc's and then meet Jaune and are like "say what?" At least that's how I picture it...like when everyone in your family goes into the military and you're like the odd duck out?
I welcome any friendships with Jaune.

even if I plan on playing V here eventuallybut I currently play a student here who'd aggressively befriend Jaune!! She's relatively new so she probably has no idea about Jaune's reputation honestly.no subject

... well, uh, have fun getting dragged into shenanigans, Jaune?
no subject
He's not good at saying no.

Yes, good. :>c She'll be willing to help him a little with combat training too, at least so there's that.
