Welcome to RWBY. Created by Monty Oum (1981 - 2015). Written by Monty’s best friends, Miles Luna and Kerry Shawcross. Songs performed, produced, and mixed by Jeff Williams, publisher of Jeff WilliamsMusic (ASCAP). Lead vocals by Jeff’s daughter, Casey Lee Williams.
Rooster Teeth was an entertainment company headquartered in Austin, Texas. It was founded in 2003 by Burnie Burns, Joel Heyman, Matt Hullum, Geoff Ramsey, Jason Saldaña, and Gus Sorola. Burns bought the brand back from Warner Bros., the studio that shut it down in Spring 2024, with his independent company, Box Canyon Productions. Let’s just hope he doesn’t make the same mistakes that led to the company’s downfall in the first place.
In RWBY, almost every character is based on a fairy tale, mythology, history, pop culture, etc., but are not one-to-one replicas.
When the show was first starting, the voice cast consisted of mostly Rooster Teeth employees before eventually being able to hire actual voice actors, alongside other internet content creators.
The “Red” Trailer introduces Ruby Rose, based on Little Red Riding Hood and voiced by Lindsay Jones, a supervising producer and frequent member of Rooster Teeth’s Achievement Hunter.
The “White” Trailer introduces Weiss Schnee, based on Snow White and voiced by Kara Eberle, who used to be Rooster Teeth’s receptionist. Not in this trailer, though. Weiss’ singing vocals are provided by Casey Lee Williams.
The “Black” Trailer introduces Blake Belladonna, based on Beauty and the Beast and voiced by Arryn Zech, a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in journalism.
The “Yellow” Trailer introduces Yang Xiao Long, based on Goldilocks and voiced by Barbara Dunkelman, a Rooster Teeth creative director and their resident pun master.
Also introduced in these trailers are the Creatures of Grimm, named after the Brothers Grimm. Each type of Grimm is based on a different animal (Ruby faces a bunch of wolf-like Beowolves).

Headmaster Ozpin, based on The Wizard of Oz and voiced by Shannon McCormick.

The “Archive Men” poster is a reference to the aforementioned Achievement Hunter, Rooster Teeth’s video gaming division, founded by Geoff Ramsey and Jack Pattillo in 2008. It was originally based on the achievement mechanic in video games but grew to become a core component of RT, hosting a wide variety of videos related to video games, earning it the name Let’s Play. It dissolved after publishing its final video in 2023. The six men featured on the poster are caricatures of channel’s former main six, Ryan Haywood, Ray Narvaez Jr., Jack Pattillo, Michael Jones, Geoff Ramsey, and Gavin Free. Other members included Lindsay Jones, Jeremy Dooley, Matt Bragg, Trevor Collins (who married Barbara Dunkelman), Mica Burton, Alfredo Diaz, Fiona Nova, Ky Cooke, and BlackKrystel.

But the main event is the introduction to everyone’s favorite RWBY antagonist, Neopolitan, named after Neapolitan ice cream (vanilla complexion, chocolate and strawberry hair), based on Hecate aka Trivia, the goddess of a three-way crossroads, and was added so late in production that CRWBY couldn’t find a voice actor in time, so they made her mute.

This also introduces us to the Color Naming Rule, a set of guidelines that define how the characters are named. The rules were first revealed by Monty Oum as a guide for naming fan-created original characters. Virtually all canon characters follow the rule.The rules state that names of characters in RWBY must live up to at least one of the following requirements: Be a color, sound like a color, mean a color, or make people think of a color. The rule applies to first name, last name, and even the combination of the first and last name as well as their surname, whether it’s as obvious as Mercury Black or more subtle like Weiss Schnee. In addition, all team names must be a four-letter acronym that spells a word that also abides by the above criteria. Ship names have also been given color-based names, as did Ruby’s team attack names while fighting Torchwick.

“Worthy” also marks the last episode where May is voiced by Kdin Jenzen before she cut ties with Rooster Teeth in 2022 due to… unfortunate working conditions that led her to refuse to associate herself with the company ever again as a result. This almost happened with Jessie James Grelle (Tyrian). She heard of the hard time Rooster Teeth was giving Jenzen (alongside tons of other controversies about the company that were starting to pile up around that time) and announced that she refused to work for a company that thinks belittling queer people is funny. Now that RWBY is owned by VIZ Media, this is no longer the case, and Grelle is looking forward to returning.

As shown in both "Jaundiced" and "Extracurricular" sparring matches at Beacon are one-on-one. However, the opening scene has Pyrrha schooling Team CRDL in a free-for-all. One wonders why Glynda let this happen. Did Cardin ask for his teammates to back him up, and Glynda figured he was so outmatched she okayed it, or did Pyrrha request it so she can give Cardin some extra-payback for what happened to Jaune?
In the forever fall forest Jaune is being beaten by team CRDL for throwing a jar of sap at Cardin, after they finished Jaune was out cold laying on the ground bruised and bloody.
Cardin: that what you get(to his team) come on let get back to the group before someone sees us.
What they didn't know was while they were beating Jaune they didn't notice an Ursa Major sneaking up behind them, when team CRDL turn around they came face to face with the Ursa as it roar.
Few moments later Jaune came to when he got up he saw team CRDL laying on the ground not moving cover in blood, he stumbles to check on them but Russell, Dove and Sky were dead jaune then hear moaning it was Cardin he was still alive.
Jaune: Cardin hold on I'll call for help(pull out his scroll).
Cardin:(gasping) this is..all your fault Arc, kiss your dreams of being a huntsman goodbye i'm..I'm telling everyone about your transcript.
Jaune stop just as he was about to call Ruby, look at Cardin this was his dream he couldn't let Cardin ruined it jaune put his scroll down and place his hands over Cardin mouth and nose.
Cardin struggled trying to get jaune hands off but he was too injured to move arms and moving his body didn't work either, Jaune just press harder keeping his hands in place preventing him from breathing till finally Cardin stopped moving.
Jaune removed his hands and look at Cardin lifeless body as he pick up his scroll and called for help.
Later at beacon infirmary Jaune told Ozpin and Goodwitch what happened ecept for one detail how team CRDL beat him up and when he woke up they were dead, Ruby told them earlier that she, Pyrrha and Weiss come across an Ursa cover in blood when they heard screaming and that it what killed team CRDL.
After Ozpin and Goodwitch left Pyrrha, Ren, Nora and team RWBY check on him Jaune apologize to Pyrrha and took her offer to help train him.
Jaune felt bad for killing Cardin but as long as his secret was safe.

RWBY: Team CRDL Weapons, Semblances, and Allusions
I wanted to put my headcanons for Team CRDL from RWBY here.
Cardin Winchester
Weapon: Executioner. I kept the mace mode, but I decided to have it also be able to extend into a flail or shift into a flamethrower.
Semblance: Growing Confidence. Cardin can grow in size based on how confident he is. I based this on his inconsistent sizing in Volume 1, which while just animation errors felt like it was a good basis for his semblance and fit his personality. He likes to feel big and strong.
Allusion: Henry Beaufort. An antagonist to Jaune's Joan of Arc.
Russel Thrush
Weapon: Shortwings. I kept it so that they're daggers that can revolve between Dust types, but I decided to add in the ability to turn into chakrams, as well as combining into a chunky bow.
Semblance: Ravenous Advance. With each successful attack, Russel gets a boost in strength, speed, and ferocity. However, he risks losing himself to that ferocity. Not that he really cares much, mind you.
Allusion: Mongol Army. An antagonist to Ren's Hua Mulan.
Dove Bronzewing
Weapon: Hallshott. I kept the sword mode, but I also made it so it can retract to become a pistol or open up to act as a giant shears.
Semblance: Blindfolded. If Dove can't see, he becomes an even better fighter. Yes I based this on Kaleidoarms's Evermorrow AU, and yes it's a reference to the fact he always looks like his eyes are closed.
Allusion: Hector of Troy. An antagonist to Pyrrha's Achilles.
Sky 'Loon' Lark
Weapon: Feather's Edge. I kept the halberd and rifle modes, but I also made it so it can shift into a very interestingly shaped blade.
Semblance: Bird Call. Loon can perfectly mimic any voice or sound he's ever heard, and can project it from multiple locations. Yes based on Kaleidoarms's Evermorrow AU again, I can't help it if others have good ideas that I greatly enjoy.
