Character: Ruby Rose
Current Canon Point: End of v4
Updated Canon Point: End of v5
Updated Background: At the end of v4, Ruby, along with Jaune, Nora, Ren and Qrow, arrived at Mistral. In v5, they...continue to be at Mistral! Alongside her uncle, Ruby and the others implore Haven Academy's headmaster, Leo Lionheart, to help them protect the Relic hidden at the school. Lionheart resists, so the others prepare to defend the school on their own. Qrow brings home Oscar, the host of the reincarnated Professor Ozpin, who decides to teach them combat as they learned at Beacon.
During this time, Ruby trains in hand-to-hand, an area of combat she is weak in, and tries to comfort Oscar when he expresses his frustrations. Eventually, Yang and Weiss arrive at Haven, and tearfully, 3/4th of Team RWBY reunite with a hug. The three of them start to bond again, even as Ruby remarks how she wishes Blake was with them. The balance hasn't quite restored to the team, but they start to make up for lost time nonetheless.
An ambush comes upon Haven one night as Cinder and other followers of Salem show up to take the school's Relic. Ruby attempts to persuade Raven to join them, but her words fall upon deaf ears and the two sides collide. As Cinder moves to attack Jaune, Ruby flashes back to the night atop Beacon tower where she watched Cinder kill Pyrrha, and her magical Deus Ex eye powers are activated. However, she is knocked out cold by Emerald before they can fully manifest. She regains consciousness awhile later, joining Yang in fighting Mercury and Emerald. Ruby takes a page out of Hercules' book and decides to use her head, headbutting Mercury. This is the most important scene for her all volume. (I'm kidding. Probably.)
As the battle goes on, Blake arrives with Faunus from Menagerie, and once Yang returns from the Vault with the Relic, all four members of team RWBY are reunited at last. Their remaining enemies retreat, and the day is won...for now.
Updated Personality: No change here, really! We really only get a glimpse into Ruby's existing motivations when she confides in Oscar about how much the loss of her friends Penny and Pyrrha still hurts and how she keeps fighting to save others from their same fate, even though she is scared.
Updated Abilities: Ruby develops her hand-to-hand combat skills through v5. In Yang's character short, she is shown to be quite weak when deprived of her weapon, and so the training that Ozpin gives her while they stay in Mistral in indispensable. She grows quite a bit better at it by the final battle of the volume. Did I mention she headbutts Mercury? That was great. A+ moment.
Other: Like the others, Ruby will be gone around the 18th-20th or so!
