The "Just for fic" thing is a crutch to not have to fix anything, and we are predominantly, of not entirely a role play site. I am not the only one on Staff who thinks this. Though, while you aren't allowed to make pages specifically /for/ those AU Canon Characters, you may still use them in your fics. After all, i sincerely doubt that there is a single person here who does not know who the main cast of RWBY is, you don't need to make pages specifically for them here.

As for using characters as a base/template, faceclaims are still alright. I'm talking if you take characters from other series (Kirito, Master Chief, etc) and make them fit the RWBYverse. We don't need a million Narutos running around here.
