Allow me to first say that I am not a moderator, just a fellow user on the wiki adding two cents in.

"A) Dig sites aren't supposed to be dangerous. And B) These are adults who are huntsmen as well as archaeologists, so they wouldn't just all willy-nilly go in there without proper scouting. All that takes to understand is a little common sense."

A.) A dig site can still be dangerous, if not by the wildlife the structure of the temple itself may not be as stable as it was in its days of youth so to speak. You have to be careful in order to not damage any artifacts, as well as keeping yourself safe by not making the place cave in on you. You did mention yourself that a landslide separated Emerald from her parents...

B.) All we could tell where that her parents were archaeologists. No mention of them being Huntsman could even be implied, because of the lack of that small detail. Common sense would just lead me to the fact that they had emergency explosives and other gear to just progress through/escape the temple. Not every tomb raider decides to go in guns ablaze like Laura Croft.

"Then why am I explaining my characters so much that I can't have any character development as the RWBY characters also develop? Because whether you see it or not, my characters are being rejected for lack of development that I'm trying to grow with the whole RWBYverse."

You can still have character development, don't get me wrong. That can be formed during RPs (if you decide the RP is canon in your timeline), or even from works of writing of your own stories. You are still able to edit your pages, add in new information, etc. Because so little is still known about Remnant, you should know that all of our OC's are trying to grow as the show progresses.

And no, you're not being rejected for lack of character development. Its because of the low quality description given for the character. Anyone can say their OC is smart, but how smart? That can lead anyone to believe she can be a total genius on Einstein's level, or gets a constant ratio of passing grades in class. Not only that, you should mention why it is she's prideful as nobody is born just acting like they own the place. Was it her upbringing? Did she have a friend who she built that confidence from? Or is it all just a front because she's scared?

And that's just personality, the other sections need more elaboration as well. You have the basis of everything down, but we just need the why of it all. There's a reason for everything and why people are a certain way.

"All you (the moderators) are seeing is that lack of development, instead of actually thinking about where the writer might be trying to lead you. The questions your asking are a few of the ones I want asked, because that means I'm writing well and that you guys want more."

Questions are good to ask, but when someone is asking too many it becomes a problem, a nd not to sound rude, but it doesn't necessarily mean you're writing well. We're not supposed to deduce who Emerald Verona is; in fact we can't if all the pieces aren't there because everyone is gonna come up with a different result that may even be different than what you intended.

You should be asking yourself these questions, and answering them on her page. You should be able to tell us, mainly so everyone is on the same understanding. You are the creator of Emerald Verona, not me, not Piscean, not any other person on this wiki.

If you have any questions, or need advice just ask around. Anyone on this wiki would be fine with helping out.
