Hey everyone, Coons here!! I’m not sure if people have noticed yet, but as of about 11:30 today, you weren’t allowed to make edits to the spreadsheet anymore!

Well this is because we have officially closed new character submissions for now! Of course, we’ll be re-opening it up for new submissions later, but for now, the mods would like to focus on the muses we currently have so far so we can also spread our attention to other things around the AU that needs cleaning up and retooling!! It’d be a little hard to do that if half of our attention was focused on constantly accepting apps, haha

If your muse’s name is on the spreadsheet, but their app is not yet made. You’re okay. Just submit their apps as soon as you can!

–

Speaking of apps, we’re steadily working through those!! Our goal is to get 2 or 3 accepted every day, so please make sure to finish them up soon so you can get those accepted!!

You know how humans go through puberty?  Seems like Faunus do that too, and certain Faunus might even go through multiple puberty’s!  Weird, huh?  And because they resemble Grimm, they even have different names for the stages, such as Venipede -> Whirlipede -> Scolipede!  That’s so weird!!!

Some don’t do that though, what the heck?  More info about this, coming…eventually!

(( It came to our attention that some people may not be aware that in RWBY AU, evolution usually works like puberty, and we apologize!!  Like real life puberty, these transformations can take a relatively short time, or a very long time, it’s mostly up to your discretion.

As a general rule, take the level at which the Pokemon evolves, divide it in half, and you get the age at which your Faunus will usually hit puberty. So, for example, A Zorua evolves into a Zoroark at level 30. In the RWBY AU, a Zorua Faunus would hit puberty at age 15, and after however long it takes for it to finish puberty, it’d be considered a Zoroark Faunus. There are, of course, early and late bloomers who ‘evolve’ before or after the average level.

Stone evolutions need to be in contact with the appropriate stone for some amount of time.  Some species may have specific rituals, others might not really care.

Item trade evolutions may vary from species to species.  For example, Kadabras must find a certain spoon that resonates with their soul in order to evolve, like a spiritual quest.

HOWEVER, be aware that the puberty method is simply a suggestion!  Some Faunus may evolve near-instantly, others may not.  In the end, evolution must be approved by the mods, and you must tell us how your character will be going about this.

When reading the Daily Firehawk, you come across a relatively new column, one you’ve…never really seen before called KEEP KALOS WEIRD.

It’s apparently a Faunus Activism column that interviews Faunus on the more unique aspects of their bodies and releases it ( with permission, of course ) in order to promote understanding and easier access to specialized faunus resources. There also seems to be polls and information on Grimm habitats & behaviors, too!

Though, for a faunus activism column, the name is…well…weird? Really?

[ A column in the daily firehawk Co-Run in secret by Kalosian Professors Viola and Valerie, providing information on Faunus and Grimm alike!

Have some faunus-y headcanons? Go ahead and share em here! Or do you have ideas for Grimm and their habitats and/or hobbies? ALSO share those here! Just like Alexa’s corner, just send us a blurb through the submit box and we’ll post it for all to see!!

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, KALOS~!

Welcome to Alexa’s Corner, a section of the Daily Firehawk that wheels and deals in rumors all about Kalos, its academy, and its up-and-coming hunters and huntresses! Move over, Malva, because I’m your hostess for this segment!!

If you’re a student of Kalos Academy, you may know me as Miss Viola’s older sister, Alexa! I’m a free spirited reporter that goes where the gossip is! You got some juicy details? I got the place to put ‘em! Just step on into my office and we’ll make some interesting stories happen!

And don’t worry! I speak nothing but the truth! Word for word word-of-mouth is my game, so there won’t be any twisting of vernacular here!

[ Welcome to Kalos’ most popular gossip and whisperings column, where muns and muses of the PAC RWBY AU alike can get their fix of quick & dirty facts about what’s going on in Kalos and Kalos Academy!

Got some juicy rumors to spread? Or maybe someone in Kalos is up to no good? Or do you just wanna advertise a personal event you’re planning? Click on the blog’s ‘submit’ button and tag it with #Alexas Corner!

And by that I mean stuff most of us have talked about in private hitting the forums. As such I think we’ll be reorganizing the world building forum a bit today to make it more practical while new topics go up!

See topics such as the Alexander Weapons Company and the Kantonese Special Forces School for examples!!

If you have an institution that you want to add to our ever growing world, please post it in the worldbuilding forum and if the idea is good, we’ll move it to our brand new, and currently empty, worldbuilding subforum! We appreciate everyone who wants to make a contribution to this story, and thank you all for the building excitement!

Remember though, if you want to redo your launch day threads, or even do ones to start if you’re with a new team, get those apps accepted and come talk to us! We don’t bite! 

(( Alright guys, Seth here again! With the straw poll closed for now with a grand total of a 75% yes, we’re gonna implement the themed group chats!

Now, as people get more familiar with eachother we’ll encourage chats for things like clubs to be made, but since it’s kinda hard to just jump into things, our first set of themed chats is going to be Regions!

These chats are going to be centered around the six regions, with KanJoh acting as one. The main purpose of these chats is for headcanoning, and also to help get to know other muses from the region! We think it’ll really help expand the world of this AU, as well as everyone’s backstories!

There are only two caveats to joining these chats: you must either have a muse who spent a good chunk of their past in the region or was born there, OR you must have a significant chunk of headcanons for the region!

Additionally, the KanJoh and Kalos regions will be very subject to mod rule, so you must be okay with some things getting shifted around! Plots and whatnot. We gotta keep SOME secrets!

At the moment, I’m composing a list to make these! In order to be added to this list, you must send me which region chat you’d like to be in and your skype name. If you have me on skype (search ‘Sleth’) you can just tell me there! Otherwise, please go to my ask box!

The First Five chats we’re making are KanJoh, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, and Kalos!

There’s a small update to moderator progress! Remember to finish those apps and find those teams! Not necessarily in that order, that is. :’D

Well close enough, it’s a changelog and updates and VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON THE NEW RWBY 2.0

WELL

SORTA NEW. IT’S MORE LIKE A REBOOT

Remember if you have any questions at all feel free to ask me or any of the other moderators listed in the post! 

I still need money anD SINCE RWBY IS STARTING UP AGAIN how about I do a tiny thing, hmm? + u+

(( WHO’S READY FOR A REBOOT??

Coming: Soon.  This Summer B)

OK!! Since I’m the idiot that made the masterlist I should point out a couple of things!

1: DO NOT BE ALARMED IF THE TEXT DOESN’T SHOW UP ON THE ‘TYPING’ CELLS. They’re actually White Text on a White Cell, so YOU’RE INPUTTING SOMETHING, but....you won’t see it. :’D All you need to do is select the cell, click the paintbucket tool, and pick the color that corresponds with that type under the ‘custom’ button! We....should have had enough muses by now for every type to be down there hopefully....chokes.

2: Make sure to check over the teams already listed!! There might have been some shuffling and pushing, so if you don’t currently have a team, go to the SECOND tab labeled ‘no team’! Even if you’ve got a partner in mind, there’s a field for that, so if you have a partner, people looking for teams will know if they need one or two spaces open for you!!

3: IF YOU HAVE A RWBY BLOG!!!! The third tab has everyone’s inputted so far!! Please make sure to add the urls and muses featured on that blog!! * v * So everyone can make sure they’re following everyone!!!!

That’s so sweet <3

You’re looking at someone who’s conquered 4 leagues, bro.

See, it’s one thing, waiting for you to go visit a gym. If we’re going into caves, I should at least come along and make sure nothing bad happens. :I
