 Origin:  Limbus Plain was born into an arms dealer family up in Atlas, who manufactured weapons across military and asserted mercenary groups with ‘reliable’ income (The family was corrupt). Anything to get a profit was there moto and their down fall (More on that later). Limbus’s father won’t strike you as the man to be corrupt, but there were some shady dealings hear and there, that was... not suited for public knowledge.

But by this point Limbus’s semblance kicked in at the age of 9 and was found more of curse to him then a gift. His semblance, foresight. And it always remained somewhat active through use of visions or somehow knowing what to predict. He and his father didn’t want to go into huntsman lifestyle, meaning he sticked away from combat, unfortunately Limbus’s father began to use Limbus’s semblance to his advantage, Which made Limbus feel more of a tool then a son

A few years pass and the old White fang leader steps down and the new one rises, as we all know violence was used a lot more often. The White fang first set there eye’s with perhaps a deal with Limbus’s father’s company in return there company won’t be part of anyy attack. A day before the deal, Limbus receives his first true vision, or how he would putit ‘inevitable forthcomings’. These visions occur in his sleep and unlike his other small visions which have a chance of happening these, are guaranteed to happen. The vision showed Limbus the White fang turning against his father and attacking the house with there weapons, and the house burning to the ground with his father in it.

Next day Limbus warned his father about what he saw and when it was time to make the deal, Limbus’s father refused. The White fang in angre later that same night decided to attack the house and steal what they could and to destroy the family business. This was the very first major attack the white fang ever made and it worked, which caused a chain of events like security for other rich family’s to increase and uprisings to happen more often. During the attack, Limbus received heavy scares for what he had to witness but all and all was unscafed. Yet still he was the only survivor during the attack thanks to his foresight having saved him. However, to the world he was dead, as he ran away making everyone believe that he was also killed during the attack.

After this, Limbus changed, scared, alone and forgotten, Limbus had to changed. He would stick to shadows, hiding his true Identity beneath a mask and watch on the sidelines, not interfering with large events. And the only time he would make a move, was when the future was not guaranteed.

 

 Character description:  Limbus Plain can be found wearing very dark purple or plum with various changing color of streaks along the sleeves, in the form of offhanded clothes being a hoodie with the hood always up, and a plain pair of pants which are white with black trademark symbols on it. Limbus’s most defining feature is that of a mask that he where’s during combat, it looks like a stone pallet of an old man, cracked and worn down but enough to cover his face. This mask is grayish and lifeless from the outside. On the edges of his arms are arm braces, with one metal retractable thrown disk attached to either side.

Facial features include, hazel eyes, poshly combed short black hair and a dark skin tone. Limbus isn't muscular, he lives on his own, making him famished, yet he doesn't steal to survive, after all, he was raised manners. his income comes through deeds of good to locals when he's not wearing the mask. The stuff would be like take this from point A to point B or tell someone there fortune, he only does this to survive, he doesn't really care for it.

 Personality:  Limbus’s personality is monotoned and to the point, he shows a lack of emotion to others around him and focuses on being reserved. Known to not get involved in big debates like the fall of Beacon, he sticks to small tangible threats, like burglary or petty disputes. His foresight makes him like this and he more or less chooses to stick to the sidelines as he sees the world will fall to chaos from a true vision. He show's no care if a true vision is involved as to him, it's already happened there's no point in trying.

 The five years:  During this time Limbus lived alone, roaming Atlas like a nomad, using scaped parts to build his weapons and doing favors for the locals under the name Mortem meaning dead. This attitude for him not returning was due to people using him for his semblance as a tool for marketing and dealerships, he wanted to remain outcasted from this life, so he started another. The mask Limbus where's was once apart of his families house and for him a grim reminder of what happened (it was part of a clay statue), so he always falls back to that light even if he doesn't want to, even his new life is still linked to his old. Limbus doesn't kill humans but wounds them. Faunus are not so lucky as they to Limbus are rabid dogs that can be put down if not on their leash.

 Name Origin:  Like most RWBY characters, their names have some sort of origin for how they are. Limbus plain is no different, his name if spelled just a tad bit different is Limbo plain. Limbus is medieval Latin for limbo, and limbo is the place of purgatory, between heaven and hell. This would match on how Limbus feels what should happen for him to get involved hence his name.

Limbus’s old man mask has origin too, the mask is supposed to represent Janus, a Roman god who could see both future and past, Or in Limbus’s case future and present. Janus is depicted as a two-faced man, one face can see the feature. Limbus in this case where's the mask as a depiction that he can see the feature. And his face underneath the present.

 Motives:  Limbus shows little to none with motivation in saving places like Beacon, and instead hurts those who will soon turn to crime or misconduct by applying violence in Atlas, you could say he’s a small-time vigilante, with some bais. Limbus doesn’t like Faunus, no need to explain why but his hate could be seen as criminal offence as he will attack a Faunus uprising before they are even planned due to his foresight, but to others. It looks like he just attacked them. Yet since Atlas isn't fond of Faunus, Limbus isn't pursued.

 Semblance - foresight:  Limbus has two types of foresight as I mentioned. One is more casual and is always somewhat active. In his own mind, he just knows, but preferably action. He won’t know what someone would say but what they will do. This foresight is weak, and can only see up to a few minutes at most. His other foresight only can come to him in dreams that look real. This foresight is a lot stronger and is guaranteed to happen, no matter what he does, this one can span for years to come. There is also a mid ground, if he were to concentrate on a person he could see their potential future for days to come.

 Weapons  : The two metal retractable thrown disks on his arms are just that, metal saw blades that are thrown at a target, Limbus has little combat experience and tries to stay at range. These disks can bounce and ricochet off surfaces, making it fancy, his foresight also aid's him in this regard as a way to through the disk.

 Powers / Skills:  Limbus has little combat experience, and he relies on his semblance a bit too much during his fights. This could be seen from the opponents point of view that Limbus looks like to be a skilled fighter, able to predict his opponents moves as well as his thrown disks that never seem to miss and just bounce back to him. But in reality he’s just a big push over.

Limbus's fight style is played along the lines of knowing where to throw, his foresight sharply predicts where he must throw the disk for it to hit the target and come back. Limbus can track the target through walls and floors, knowing where they are at all the times, in a short radius for five minutes. This knowing causes Limbus to be unable to be ambushed by his target and remaining at a distance. If coming face to face in close quarters, Limbus's best bet is to dodge and get away, as his thrown disks are useless up close. if Limbus is at a range he will try to stick to hard to hit sightlines to play by his advantages, knowing where to throw the disks and how.

Limbus's lack of combat skills could be seen due to lack of Grimm in Atlas, meaning head to head combat is often rare and he never took training in his previous life.

 Relations:  Limbus’s closest relation would be of course Weiss and her family, having being rich and a citizen of Atlas. This relation would be along the lines perhaps friends or business related.

Another relation could be with Torchwick and Neo, having his father used the business in a corrupt nature that could of supplied them with weapons and guns.

 Likes: 
 * Remaining at ease.

 Dislikes: 
 * His foresight (though he does use it alot, he wishes he had something else instead.)
