Amy and Sparky's AU Fanon Timeline

This is my page for keeping track of my OC's timeline and the events that surround and shape them in the world of Remnant. Events in Bold are canon (to a degree), and since the world of RWBY hasn't shown us a dating system, we'll assume the year in which Volume 1 takes place to be Year 0.

If I RP with your characters, I may request you to allow me to put major events from their backstories in this page. It'll be optional, but I like to have an overview of the fanon backstory.
