SLVR Enemies

The following is a list of minor combatants, arranged according to order of appearances, originally made or adapted by Mark Zhang for his Fanmade Trailers featuring Team SLVR. Most information about them, including their very names, are unknown so far, though details observed throughout the Trailers are recorded here.

"Jade Ninjas"
The "Jade Ninjas" (unofficial) are the first round of opponents against Brandon Charbonneau in his debut "Charcoal" Trailer.

Appearance
These fighters all have very similar appearances, wearing uniforms that look to be influenced by a stereotypical ninja's shinobi shōzoku, colored dark green with a yellow hem around the bottom and center folds, slightly open to show off their chests, along with a black belt around their waists. The sleeves and pants only go down to around the elbows and knees, as the rest of their limbs are wrapped in white bindings, and they wear dark tabi socks and wooden sandals over their feet. They even have the same sunglasses and masks made of two separate bandannas - one over their forehead, the other around the entire lower halves of their faces - but there are slight differences in the styles of spiky black hair between members. Their standard weapons are either a long curving blade with a gold rectangular guard and brown leather hilt they hold in their right hands or a basic grey rifle capable of firing multiple shots at a time.

History
They were first driving three trucks - two filled with their ranks, one containing a large box of unknown contents - over the brick bridge in-between two tunnels underneath a waterfall when they were ambushed by Brandon's Magnum Opus shooting out their tires. They surround him after he drops down to their level with at least a dozen warriors on each side and two gunners behind the trucks, but when they try to rush him, he dispatches each opponent one-by-one with what seems to be minimal effort via kicking, punching, twisting them around, firing at their feet or weapons, and ending the battle by catching four blades in the crook of his weapon and shooting them into pieces. At this point, they all run away towards the tunnels they came from, leaving their cargo behind.

"Stone Samurai"
The "Stone Samurai" (unofficial) are another group of adversaries that fought Brandon Charbonneau after the "Jade Ninjas" in his "Charcoal" Trailer.

Appearance
These warriors seem to be completely artificial, each one looking exactly the same and being made of both metal and rock of some kind given how they break apart like dust, though it is unknown if they are technically robots or something else altogether, nor was it revealed if they worked with the "Ninjas" or they engaged Brandon for another reason, maybe protecting their base or sent by someone else to get his new spoils. They are equipped in samurai-like armor colored various shades of grey, with darker pieces around the sode spaulders, dou chest armor, haidate thigh cuisses, shikoro neck guards, and lines down the kote vambraces and suneate greaves. They also have golden kabuto masks with fanged smiles, nostrils, and glaring eyes carved into them, and a green gemstone in the center of the forehead, which is barely seen through the opening in their conical hat topped with a yellow curving horn-like maedate crest. They all wield fangtian ji polearms, with similarly golden crescent blades, spear head, and bottom over the dark red shaft.

History
After Brandon causes the original guards of the cargo to flee, he notices a lone sentry on the bridge behind him, lifting its head and flashing its crystal before adopting a fighting stance, just as over forty of its allies jump from out of the waterfall onto the battlefield, though the thief tries to shoot a few of them away using his gun before they all land. They manage to throw off one of the trucks over the bridge when the first opponent rushes at Brandon, but it is easily sliced apart by his weapon's sword mode, at which point they all charge towards him and get subsequently cut down as well. After performing his aerial move to slice off three of their heads at once, Brandon also activates his Semblance of heat over his blade and gun barrel to destroy them all with even more ease, ending the fight with a finishing blow through the remaining nine.

"White Fang Sargent"
The "White Fang Sargent" (unofficial) is the final opponent against Simin Megistus in his debut "Silver" Trailer.

Appearance
This member of the White Fang shares many similarities to the Lieutenant from the main series. He has a large, muscular physique and wears the same pants, sash, gloves, shoes, and leg armor as the other underlings, but also has armor over his forearms with a different white vest design possessing no buttons and a raised collar. This character also dons a full Grimm Mask over his entire face, though the design is multilayered with different red markings between each fold, and it is topped off with a black hood that is pointed in the back. He also has triangular grey shoulderpads, and the back of his top has the Japanese characters "白い牙", which translates in English to "White Fang", written in red and black over the snarling wolf symbol. Also similar to the Lieutenant's design, this figure uses a modified tool as a weapon rather than for slave labor under the Humans (as confirmed in the comments for the video by Mark), his being a large twisting drill with the body of a rifle he can swing with both hands or even just one, capable of firing shotgun blasts from the head to boost its speed when slamming the stock against opponents.

History
After Simin defeated the White Fang Goons moving crates around in a warehouse using his Kore Kosmou's ice sword and shield against their own blades, axes, pistols, and rifles, this higher-ranking leader comes in just as the last of his men are beaten. He attacks relentlessly, using the force of his weapon to keep Simin on the defensive and withstanding any retaliation. After knocking him around through the air, the White Fang fighter finally manages to press down and shatter his shield, using a spin move to do the same with his sword, and leaps overhead to finish him off, only to be knocked back by Simin's new fire broadsword. With its longer reach and power, Simin matches the drill's size and deals his own blows, even managing to force the other weapon to dig itself into the ground before unleashing a flurry of slashes on its wielder. Delivering another quick series of hits with his ice swords, he throws the fire sword to make the warehouse wall explode and send the "Sargent" flying into Simin's kick. Once outside, the leader commanded his men to rush at Simin, but after he disappeared in a burst of steam, he tossed his wind lance down on the assembled Faunus and sucked them all up in a tornado before they were blown away around the docks, with the "Sargent" sprawled on the ground right in the center.

"Sword and Shield Droids"
The "Sword and Shield Droids" (unofficial) are the robots sent after Vella Moisia in her debut "Viridian Trailer.

Appearance
The two androids are identical in design, both having a bulky endoskeleton of the same grey color underneath jagged pieces of armor over their feet, legs, thighs, pelvis, hands, arms, shoulders, torsos, chests, and faces, leaving the necks, sides, elbows, and knees exposed. They wear helmets with six horns above a colored visor, and they have claw-like digits each holding different weapons. The one with lighter grey armor and a green visor carries a simple sword possessing a matching grey hilt that extends from its square guard containing a hole in the middle into a black-and-green blade, perfectly curved on one side and protruding edges on the other, that it carries in its right hand. The other uses a large shield over its left arm held by a single grip in the center that matches its owner's darker grey armor and red accent, made up of several pointing shapes and three lighter grey circles connected by red-and-white lines across the surface and under a smaller panel on top to the pentagon piece marked with a red circle at the bottom. When damaged and taken apart, the insides of their mechanics glow the same green and red as their respective visors.

History
They appear from the beginning of the "Virdiain" Trailer chasing Vella through a tunnel to a cliff, and she falls off the edge upon seeing them, but the two androids leap off as well, using one's shield as a platform to jump down at faster speeds and catch up. When the sword wielder approaches with an outstretched hand, she shoots it away, and begins to parry with both through the air until blasting the "Shield Droid" into the frozen waters below, then using her Semblance with the remaining robot to slow herself down. Back on the ground, they continue fighting against her both individually and together in sync, though when the "Sword Droid" gets blasted by Chatareus' bow form, its counterpart knocks it aside to charge forward. They keep trying to surround and surprise her until eventually kicking and throwing her across the ice, where she finally uses a special form of ammo that allows her glyphs to be shot at the opponents. By hitting the shield, she knocks its owner away at high speeds so she can slice off the arm of its partner and launch it into the air, then firing it down to the ice in a blue-green explosion. Her last adversary gets riddled with a multitude of rapid shots that also loses its shield arm, and she blasts its head off before slicing the body in half with the help of her glyphs, its remaining hand clenching one last time and lying still.

"White Beowolf"
The "White Beowolf" (unofficial) is a variant of the usual Beowolf species briefly seen attacking Lycan Arcadia in his debut "Linen" Trailer.

Appearance
This particular Grimm was not originally created by Mark, and was instead taken from the early demo for RWBY: Grimm Eclipse, appearing when the other enemies are killed as a. Like the regular Beowolves in the Trailer, this version is taken directly from the Grimm Eclipse models, and it looks the same as the rest of its pack, a bipedal wolf-like monster with sharpened claws, bony spikes along its arms, and a skull-like mask typical of most monsters, though unlike other Grimm, it possesses white fur, dark spikes and talons, and a light grey mask lined with yellow rather than the usual red.

History
In its game of origin, it was significantly stronger than its predecessors and showed superior strength, intelligence, and durability against enemies, though in the "Linen" Trailer, it simply appeared after a few of its brethren had been defeated by Lycan, charging forward and getting tripped up, then punched into the air by him, only to fall back down and get sliced in its side by his newly-transformed Razorbolt claws as easily as the rest of his opponents, so whether it did not have the advanced abilities displayed before or its slayer is simply strong enough to overcome them so quickly is up for debate.

"Omega Beowolf"
The "Omega Beowolf" (unofficial) is another variant of Beowolf that also briefly appears in the "Linen" Trailer.

Appearance
Like its fellow unique Grimm, this Beowolf is different than any seen in canon; while possessing the same black-and-white color scheme with burning red eyes and hulking monstrous figure as usual, it possesses far more armor than even an Alpha Beowolf, including rib bones protruding from its torso, clusters of spines emerging from its shoulders, thighs, and forearms, a long sword-like spike coming out of each wrist, thick horns growing from its mask around the top of its snout and sides where its ears should be, and large bottom fangs. Strangely, one of the places that does not have this is its back along the spine, which is where the largest rows of ridges usually are seen in common and Alpha Beowolves, instead being replaced by a simple line of white.

History
After Lycan manages to defeat every Beowolf in the area that tried to attack him, his attention is drawn to a nearby wall being knocked upon, and this creature crashes through it a moment later, apparently challenging him for a last fight. As Lycan grins and cracks his knuckles, the huge Beowolf bellows out a roar, only to be cut off when it gets stabbed in the back of the head with a sword, falling dead to the ground. The "Ashen Swordsman" who killed it without a fuss gets the blade back from atop its body, and this monster's full capabilities in battle remain a mystery.

"Ashen Swordsmen"
The "Ashen Swordsmen" (unofficial) is a faction that was briefly seen in the ending picture of the "Charcoal" Trailer behind Brandon Charbonneau, though one of them physically appeared as the final opponent for Lycan Arcadia in the "Linen" Trailer.

Appearance
These automated warriors have scale-like mail over their entire forms under pointed black armor protecting their legs, thighs, arms, and torso, each piece lined with silver around the edges with additional sharpened silver pauldrons and small breatplates attached. Their necks are protected by a raised collar in the back, and their heads consist of a hollow dark helmet pointed at the top attached by side hinges to a sawtoothed grey faceplate tipped with three points, two of which curve around the head like horns. These masks contain eye holes made of two angled lines with burning orange light behind them, which glow brightly right before the faceplate opens up and launches an exploding fireball attack. All seem to carry the same weapon, a black-and-grey broadsword with a cross pommel and three crossguards on each side of a red hexagon gem in the center, with the blade about the length and width of its arm with two star-like protrusions neat the tip, though the one in the "Linen" Trailer was shown to be proficient with dual-wielding them instead.

History
The first one to appear on screen arrived halfway through the "Linen" Trailer, killing the would-be evolved Beowolf with one of its swords from behind through its mouth before it could fight Lycan, then pointing the other at Lycan as if challenging him instead. It suddenly rushes forward to attack, its larger weaponry and hardened durability proving to be a match for an opponent specializing in melee combat and quick slashes, and he only narrowly dodges its fireball attack when tossed in the air. They briefly battle on the roof and inside the remains of a destroyed building in the city ruins, and it traps Lycan between a support pillar and its swords until he reveals his Semblance by sending out clones. It finally falls through the ground after getting kicked downward by an exploding Fire Dust clone, and it tries to charge its fireball attack once again before Lycan launches himself at it and stabs the mechanical knight through the face using his claws. This causes it to overload and explode, and Lycan picks up its faceplate with his knives still embedded in it.
