Talk:Remus Romulus/@comment-24105599-20140120012832

I am well aware that being a faunus does not affect the way that a person would think. However, there is also no reason why a remote village could not operate based on a caste system in place of a governing body.

Appearance: Remus's appearance is no longer attributed to his faunus background, and is simply what he looks like naturally. Removed claws after consideration because I agree that they were over the top.

Background: The form of the background has nothing to do with adherance-to-canon or the feasibility of a character. This was already previously read and accepted, even though it was written differently. A large part of it was also written according to instructions from, and reviewed and accepted by, Torr.

Weapons: He does have multiple weapons. However, they do NOT both transform, for one. And the one that does transform is merely for show. A .22 caliber rifle can easily be weak enough to fail to take down a deer. It's not a fighting weapon, and is merely to reinforce the character's background. I disagree that martial arts is an art form, but I'll still provide a counter. Remus has a sword and his gauntlet (not counting the rifle part) and Grimm Chance. There's 3. Lie Ren has his dual SMGs, the blades of the SMGs, and is described as "proficient in martial arts." 3 and 3. Blake has her gun, the sword form of the gun, and the kusarigama form. It's all compact, but its still three weapons.

"In addition, it's highly unlikely that a simple hunting villiage living entirely separately from Vale or any of the other four Kingdoms would surive attacks by Grimm without heavy defences of some sort." The point was that they didn't survive. Yes, it was a hunting village. But the village literally revolved around the strength of individual members. And considering that they raised their status by hunting Grimm, its plausible that the surrounding area was relatively clear of Grimm. It's been shown that a single person (albeit Ruby, a main character) can take down a horde of Beowolves. A large group of what are essentially warriors, even with more primitive weaponry, should be able to accomplish the same feat, for example. However, its been shown that four people of comparable skill to Ruby had a rough time defeating a single deathstalker, which easily explains why the members of the village could NOT take down TWO deathstalkers amid a panic.
