[[folder: Other Characters]]
!! Alexander Arc
Jaune's uncle and a CEO of an as-of-yet unnamed company.

* BadAss: From what little is known about him, he has a reputation as this.
* BashBrothers: With Andreas and Siegfried.
* BoisterousBruiser
** GeniusBruiser
* CanonImmigrant: He and Gretchen Faust originate from a different fanfic based on Weiss Reacts written by a different author.
* DynamicEntry: RunningGag in 'Diary of Glynda Goodwitch'- he often enters scenes with his chariot, drawn by [[EverythingsWorseWithWolves Beowolves]].
* {{Expy}}: Of [[FateZero Iskander]].
* FluffyTamer: He tames Beowolves to serve as his stead.
* LargeHam: '''GLORIOUS CONQUEST.'''
* RatedMForManly: Of course, he's ''[[FateZero Iskander]]''.

!! Andreas Arc
Jaune's father. Secretly the reincarnated Kamina of GurrenLagann fame.

* ActuallyIAmHim: When Blake catches out his lie about not being Kamina.
* BackFromTheDead: He voluntarily left the afterlife. Why? [[ItAmusedMe He was bored of being dead.]]
* BadAss: What did you expect? It's freaking [[GurrenLagann Kamina]]!
** The reason he was reincarnated? He was ''bored of being dead''.
* BashBrothers: With Alexander and Siegfried.
* BoisterousBruiser: What did you expect? It's '''Kamina'''.
* TheCasanova: Well, enough that he can seduce Death, at any rate, into letting him go free.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: His motivation for not revealing his real identity.
* LargeHam: He's freaking ''Kamina''. What did you expect?
* MeaningfulName: Andreas' linguistic root is a word for 'man'. [[FridgeBrilliance If you think about it, its pretty obvious why Kamina would get a name like that.]]
* OCStandIn: For Jaune's dad. [[GurrenLagann Only not really.]]
* PapaWolf: Towards Jaune.
* PeggySue: Is actually the reincarnated [[GurrenLagann Kamina]].
* RatedMForManly: Well, of course. He's freaking ''Kamina''.
* {{Reincarnation}}: See all of the tropes above.

!! Siegfried Schnee
Weiss' father and the CEO of the Schnee Dust Corporation.

* AbusiveParents: Actually averted in a RWBY fanfic for once. Most fanfics depict Weiss' father as an abusive or overly-controlling man, but Siegfried, well.... [[BoisterousBruiser is]] [[ShipperOnDeck very]] [[GoodParents very]] [[PapaWolf different.]]
* BadAss: Has a reputation as one. It helps that his name is associated with one of the [[TheRingOfTheNibelung most badass characters ever]] and that he hangs out with- and matches- [[GurrenLagann Kamina]].
** BadassBookworm: Need we remind you that he is also a CEO of one of the biggest companies in the Reactsverse?
** BewareTheNiceOnes: He has one of the nicest portrayals of Weiss' father in any fanfic featuring him. He also usurped his father when he made the mistake of abusing Weiss.
* BashBrothers: With Andreas and Alexander.
* BerserkButton: [[PapaWolf Do. Not. Abuse. Weiss.]]
** Don't hurt his TrueCompanions. You will regret it.
* {{BFS}}: Balmung.
* BoisterousBruiser: Then again, [[FateZero considering]] [[GurrenLagann who he hangs out with]]....
** GeniusBruiser: He IS the CEO of the Schnee Dust Company.
* DotingParent: While Weiss is sometimes embarrassed of him, she truly loves him and there's a reason why.
* TheDragonslayer: His weapon Balmung is called this and he literally slew a dragon Grimm. [[ShoutOut Called Fafnir.]]
* {{Expy}}: His weapons are based off of [[{{Berserk}} Guts]].
* IntergenerationalFriendship: With Yang.
* OCStandIn: For Weiss' dad.
* PapaWolf: Oh, most definitely. The main reason he usurped his father as CEO was because [[AbusiveParents he abused Weiss]] and [[StarCrossedLovers forced his wife away from him]].
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: What he did to his father after he abused Weiss.
* ShipperOnDeck: For Ruby and Weiss. [[TsunDere Weiss is unamused.]]
* {{Troll}}: To his own daughter.

* BeleagueredAssistant: To Cinder.
* DeadpanSnarker: The few times he appears, he often calls out Cinder on her obsession with burritos.
** Chapter 75 displays his snarker tendencies more.
* HeelFaceTurn: Did one at an unspecified time (implied to be around the time of Volume 2) before Weiss Reacts along with Cinder.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite being an immense snarker, he does show a soft spot for Chieri. And earlier, he squees over sitting next to Rise in a club.
* OnlySaneMan: Again, to Cinder.
* RealMenWearPink: He is a [[{{VideoGame/Persona4}} Risette]] fanboy and his favourite anime? Anime/CardcaptorSakura.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Pulls this due to the insanity of the Diary Arc for a week. Cinder searches for a replacement quickly because [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking who would buy her burritos if her slave isn't around?]]
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Did we mention he was a Risette fanboy?
* {{Tsundere}}: A male type A to...well, everyone.

!! Freya Schnee
Weiss' mother and a Vytalian J-pop idol.

* HappilyMarried: To Siegfried.

* ParentalAbandonment: Enforced by Weiss' grandfather. [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge Siegfried did not take this well.]]
** Subverted as of chapter 69.
* OCStandIn: For Weiss' mom.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Despite being Weiss' mother, she looks young enough to be compared with [[{{VideoGame/Persona4}} Rise]] and [[{{Main/AKB0048}} Chieri]].
* SecondLove: To Siegfried, after [[{{AKB0048}} Chieri.]]

!! Siegmund Schnee
Weiss' grandfather, and an as-of yet unseen character that nonetheless has had an effect on the Reactsverse.

* AbusiveParents: What he was to Weiss. This, combined with forcing Freya to leave Siegfried, did [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge not have a good effect upon the latter.]]
* BigBad: As far as the [[SliceOfLife Reactsverse]] can have one anyway. He is the reason Weiss had a terrible childhood and the reason her mother had to leave her.
* FantasticRacism: Is definitely a racist to Faunus.
* TheGhost: He has yet to show up in any Reactsverse fics.
*JerkAss: Despite having absolutely no part in the Reactsverse present, he still manages to come off as this. To count:
** He abused Weiss when she was a child.
** He forced Siegfried, his own son, to cut off links with all of his friends and his wife.
** He is the main reason the Faunus hate- or at least used to hate- the Schnee Dust Corporation.
* KnightOfCerebus: Every time he's mentioned, the story takes a turn for the darker temporarily.
* NoNameGiven: If hints are to be taken, though, he might well be named [[TheRingOfTheNibelung Siegmund]].
** His name is confirmed to be Siegmund as of chapter 73.

!! Ysengrim Belladonna
Blake's father.

* AnimalMotifs: A wolf.
* BadAss: From what little we know of him.

Jaune's aunts and uncles.

* AnimalMotifs: A fox for Reynard, a lion for Aria.
* BadassFamily
* {{Expy}}: All of them:
** Reynard is an expy of, well, Reynard the Fox.
** Azur and Cota Arc are expies of [[GurrenLagann Simon and Nia]], respectively.
** Aria Arc is an expy of [[FateZero Saber from the Fourth Grail War]].
* MeaningfulName: Reynard is a LoveableRogue, Azur has navy blue hair and Cota is based off the French word for 'near'.
* ThisIsADrill: Azur's weapon of choice.

* GenkiGirl: Compared to Mercury.

* NiceGirl: But of course, it's Rise.

!! Nanako Dojima

* CallBack: [[{{Persona4}} She calls Jaune a manwhore]]- [[ThePornomancer appropriate considering Jaune's Semblance.]]
* CelebrityParadox: Ruby knows of Nanako from Persona 4. Weiss doesn't comment on the fact that Nanako is both a video game character and a real child standing in front of them and instead tries to stop [[TheKnightsWhoSaySquee her looking like a stalker.]]
* CutenessProximity: Induces this in Yang and Ruby, much to [[OnlySaneMan Weiss' irritation.]]

** Also, Junes.

!! Yukari Takeba

* AuthorAppeal: Calls the author out on this- specifically, on having her even show up in Weiss Reacts.
** Out of universe, the author considers her one of his favourite characters, so she's probably onto something.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: See above.
* CelebrityParadox: Absolutely nobody mentions to her that she's also in a video game, despite meeting Ruby and Yang, both Persona fans.
* TheCameo: Shows up in 'RWBY at Animecon' and [[EasterEgg 'Weiss Reacts to Curtain Fics']]. She also shows up in another chapter to [[TakeThatUs call out the author on using her to make crappy jokes]].
** Featherman, the series she acts in, is constantly mentioned for the ten chapters before her cameo.
* LikeAGodToMe: Ruby and Yang absolutely lose it when they meet her in person.
* NoNameGiven: Her first cameo. Her second makes it very clear who she is.

* {{Yandere}}: The Goddess of them.

!! [[CodeGeass Jeremiah Gottwald]]

Ruby's uncle.

!!Characters include:

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder: Team RWBY]]
!!Weiss Schnee

* ACupAngst: A fact Yang likes to make fun of.
* BiTheWay
* ButtMonkey: The primary example, although many other characters suffer with her.
* CanNotSpitItOut: Until chapter 72, she refused to ever come close to admitting she had feelings for Ruby. When [[BigDamnKiss Ruby made the first move, however....]]
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: To her team. Much to her distress.
* CompanionCube: [[EverythingsWorseWithSharks Sharkie-chan.]]
* CovertPervert: Despite claiming to hate perverts, she has a lot of [[EroticDream fantasies about]] [[LoveInterest Ruby]].

* IdolSinger: Just like her mother.
* MsFanservice: Only Yang and Pyrrha get more.
* OfficialCouple: With Ruby as of chapter 72.
* OnlySaneMan: To Yang and Blake.
** NotSoAboveItAll: She has her moments of insanity, though. Also, Blake theorizes that Weiss actually ''loves'' antics and only pretends to hate them. In typical {{Tsundere}} fashion, Weiss denies it.
* RageQuit: Any game she plays, really. Also, Fanfic/ReactWatchBelieveYikes.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: She has no attraction towards [[LoveInterest Ruby]] whatsoever. She also does NOT find her [[{{Moe}} adorable]] at all!
* TrademarkFavouriteFood: Vanilla sorbet.
* {{Tsundere}}: A textbook Type A one towards Ruby. Yang even lampshades it by claiming that RieKugimiya, a seiyuu well known for voicing tsunderes, would be appropriate for Weiss, which [[IResembleThatRemark she denies.]]
** She's even this to Ruby when ''the latter is her girlfriend''. She's also implied to be one towards the art of pranking in general.

!!Yang Xiao Long

* BadAss: She regularly spars with the Lagann as a stress test and casually dodges a hallway full of traps meant to ensnare Weiss for Velvet.
** She uses her Persona as [[MundaneUtility pyrotechnics.]]
* BigEater
* BuxomIsBetter: Especially when it comes to teasing [[ACupAngst Weiss]].
* BerserkButton: Don't touch her hair. Or Ruby.
* ChivalrousPervert
* LoveableSexManiac: Is incredibly perverted to the point that even Blake can't stand her sometimes.
* MetaGuy: Along with Blake.
* PlayingWithFire: Her Persona, [[FantasticFoxes Kyuubi-no-Kitsune]].
* SeriousBusiness: Antics. She ''declares war'' because Ren accuses her of being unable to prank properly.
* ShipperOnDeck: For Ruby and Weiss.
* TricksterArchetype: Pranks everyone.
* {{Troll}}: Especially to Weiss.

!! Blake Belladonna

* BadAss: Pretty much, her entire characterisation in Weiss Reacts.
** AdaptationalBadass: While still badass in canon, Blake's badassery is taken UpToEleven here.
** BadassBookworm: She retains her bookworm traits from canon....
** BoisterousBruiser: .....but now has a tendency to channel [[GurrenLagann Kamina]] in her personality. She is, however, a GeniusBruiser.
** CoolShades: TriangleShades, based off, well, [[GurrenLagann it should be pretty obvious by now.]]
** {{Determinator}}: A requirement when handling Spiral Power. Also, she is this during her time in the White Fang.
** UnderestimatingBadassery: A MarySue does this to her, resulting in a CurbStompBattle, then she does this to [[CuteBruiser Vivi]].
** One example of badassery: She plays [[BlindGuardian Mirror Mirror]]. With [[ThirtyHs Fuckslayer]]. Using a frigging [[TengenToppaGurrenLagann Core Drill]] as a pick.
** The reason for this? It's implied that GurrenLagann influenced her emotional development so instead of becoming the quiet girl she is in canon, she became, well, Reactsverse Blake.
* BerserkButton: Don't hurt her friends. Seriously.
* CovertPervert:
--> '''Blake''': ''(talking about the Ninjas of Love novels) [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial "THEY ARE ART OF THE HIGHEST CALIBRE!"]]''
* DaddysGirl: When she finally sees her father Ysengrim during chapter 72.

* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Punches Pyrrha in the face when the latter mopes about Jaune going with Minako to the dance. Complete with "LET'S SEE YOU GRIT THOSE TEETH!".
* LargeHam: She takes after Kamina, of COURSE she would be,
* {{Irony}}: Blake in canon is one of the [[TheQuietOne quietest]] and most [[OnlySaneMan rational]] characters in RWBY. Blake in Fanfic/WeissReacts.....[[BoisterousBruiser well,]] [[RatedMForManly see]] [[BadAss for]] [[TheKnightsWhoSaySquee yourself]].
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: She is a [[GurrenLagann Kamina]] and [[{{VideoGame/Persona3}} Mitsuru]] fangirl.
* RatedMForManly: She has been taking lessons from '''KAMINA'''. She also hates her canon self simply because she isn't badass/manly enough.
* ThisIsADrill: Uses a '''[[GurrenLagann GIGA DRILL BREAK]]''' to dispatch a MarySue for hurting or attempting to hurt Weiss. Specifically, she creates one by spinning [[WhipItGood Gambol Shroud]] into a drill shape.
* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Despite being a girl, Blake is nonetheless one of the most testosterone filled characters in Weiss Reacts. However, her favourite anime? It isn't GurrenLagann, it's ''Anime/CardcaptorSakura.''
** She also reacts somewhat uncharacteristically softly when [[DisappearedDad her father]] shows up to watch her perform at the music festival.

* CuteBruiser
* LoveableSexManiac
* OfficialCouple: With Ren.

!! Pyrrha Nikos

* BiTheWay: Despite being confirmed to be in love with Jaune, one scene in 'Weiss Reacts to Tournament Arcs' involves her glomping ''[[LesYay Weiss]]''.
* BadAss: Despite being OutOfFocus and a ButtMonkey, Pyrrha still effortlessly takes out a MarySue in a CurbStompBattle, thus earning her badass credentials in the Reactsverse.
** BadassAdorable
* ButtMonkey: A minor case, but she has gotten caught by various antics when trying to kidnap Jaune.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Towards Jaune.
* GeniusBruiser: She is one of the best Huntresses in the year and manages to keep up in antics with Yang and Blake, among other things.
* DeathGlare: That makes Yang and ''[[FearlessFool Nora]]'' back down.
* [[DoggedNiceGuy Dogged Nice Girl]]: Towards Jaune, who is in love with Weiss, who might be in love with [[BiTheWay him and Ruby]]. [[{{Polyamory}} And it's implied that the latter two would not be averse to welcoming them into the relationship.]]
* TheDreaded: Even ''Ren'' refuses to mess with her.
** Averted with Minako.

* {{Tsundere}}: Towards Lukas.
* WoodenKatanasAreEvenBetter: Twin Heavens, her chosen pair of weapons.
** SimpleYetAwesome: They are capable of keeping up with weapons like [[RoyalRapier Myrtenaster]] and [[ImpossiblyCoolWeapon Crescent Rose]] in effectiveness, despite being a pair of wooden clubs.

[[folder: Other Students]]
!! Cardin Winchester
The leader of team CRDL. In the Reactsverse, instead of being a JerkJock, he is a JerkWithAHeartOfGold.

* BadAss: He took out a MarySue, explicitly shown to be overpowered by the standards of RWBY, with one punch to the face.
** AdaptationalBadass: His canon self is a DirtyCoward JerkJock. Here, Cardin is a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, averting his characterisation in most other fanfics.
** TranquilFury: When he REALLY loses it.
* BerserkButton: Do not insult his mother, his friends, and definitely do NOT insult Melanie.
** BewareTheNiceOnes: While somewhat crude and brash, he is one of the downright nicest characters. However, piss him off and he WILL destroy you. Just ask [[JerkAss Dove]].
* BigBrotherInstinct: Towards the cast. It would be a very bad idea to hurt any of them.
* TheBigGuy
* CurbStompBattle: Basically, Cardin against anyone stupid enough to anger him. Even a MarySue falls prey to it; he's knocked out in [[MegatonPunch one hit]].
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Most definitely.
* {{Expy}}: His characterisation is based off of [[{{VideoGame/Persona4}} Kanji]].
* GentleGiant

* SingleTargetSexuality: To Melanie.

* CloudCuckooLander: Definitely.
* CuteBruiser
* DoggedNiceGuy: She just wants Weiss to notice her.....she just goes around it the [[ClingyJealousGirl entirely wrong way]].
* GoldfishPoopGang: She's only actually succeeded in kidnapping Weiss once.
* GirlWithPsychoWeapon: In her case, a humongous axe with a chainsaw edge.

* ImTakingHerHomeWithMe: Her reaction to all things Weiss.
* MetaGuy
* SingleTargetSexuality: To Weiss, although she has some ShipTease with [[ChickMagnet Jaune]].
* StalkerShrine: Owns one.
* StalkerWithACrush: To Weiss.
* {{Yandere}}: To Weiss. She often attempts to kidnap her for her own needs.

!! Elsa Schnee
A clone of Weiss created by Velvet. She gained life and sentience when she was exposed to [[AppliedPhlebotinum Life Dust]].

* AnIcePerson: Her Semblance.
* BuxomIsBetter: Despite being a clone of [[ACupAngst Weiss]]. This causes the latter much distress.
* BookWorm: Likes reading. A lot.
* CloningBlues: Averted, she feels no angst whatsoever towards being a clone of Weiss.
* {{Expy}}: Of [[HaruhiSuzumiya Yuki Nagato]].
** Her one shown technique is an expy of [[LeagueOfLegends Yasuo's Last Breath]].

!! Coco
A member of team CFVY with a crush on Velvet. She is revealed to have [[SplitPersonality several different personalities]] as of chapter 78.

* ApologisesALot: Coco and Latte.
* BiTheWay: Espresso, most definitely, although Coco is hinted to be.
** DepravedBisexual: Unfortunately for Tohru and Fox.
* ButtMonkey: Mocha and Coco. Espresso to a lesser extent.
* CuteButPsycho: Mocha. Coco herself could qualify.
* [[DoggedNiceGuy Dogged Nice Girl]]: Latte is this to Weiss.
* {{Expy}}: Coco's default personality is this of [[FruitsBasket Tohru]].
** Making the contrast with the REAL Tohru even funnier.
* LoveableSexManiac: Espresso, definitely.
* MsFanservice: Espresso, again.
* NiceGirl: Coco.
* ThemeNaming: All of her split personalities are named after types of coffee.
* SorryIFellOnYourFist: Coco, again.

** Latte is this to Weiss.

!! Dove Bronzewing and Russell Thrush
The other two members of team CRDL that the fic features.

* ButtMonkey: Almost all of their appearances have them either being beaten up by Cardin or scared by a teacher.
** Even ''[[ActualPacifist Tohru]]'' scares them,
* DirtyCoward: They like to insult Cardin, but when he starts getting angry, they immediately run.
* GoldfishPoopGang: They pose no threat to the cast at all. Especially to [[GentleGiant Cardin]].

* ThoseTwoBadGuys

!! Fox and Yatsuhashi
The two male members of team CFVY.

* BigEater: Fox.
* BerserkButton: [[DoNotCallMePaul Don't call Yatsuhashi 'Yatsu'.]]
** [[ShipTease He doesn't mind Coco calling him Yatsu, though.]]
* ButtMonkey: Fox.
* TheComicallySerious: Yatsuhashi.
* HandsomeLech: Fox. Also a ChivalrousPervert due to how he helps out Coco after the latter has a SplitPersonalityTakeover.
* ImpliedLoveInterest: Coco for Yatsuhashi.
** Latte is also implied to have a crush on him.
* MotorMouth: Fox, again.
* NiceGuy: Yatsuhashi. At least to Coco- the person and the personality. [[RedOniBlueOni Fox, however....]]
** Fox has this sometimes.
* OnlySaneMan: Yatsuhashi acts as this to team CFVY.
* TheQuietOne: Yatsuhashi, again.
* RedOniBlueOni: Fox is a fast talking HandsomeLech, Yatsuhashi is a calm and quiet StraightMan.

* SchoolIdol: Both of them, again.
* ThoseTwoGuys

!! Aspasia Arc
Jaune's [[OlderThanTheyLook older sister]].

* AnimalMotifs: [[GeniusBonus Lions]].
* BareFistedMonk: She IS Hercules, after all.
* BrotherSisterIncest: A DefiedTrope. She gets [[BerserkButton irritated]] when Pyrrha implies this is what she wants for Jaune- indeed, her love for Jaune seems to be more like a CoolBigSis.
* CoolBigSis
* CuddleBug: She likes hugs. A lot.
* CuteBruiser: She's tiny and stomps on Dove with ease.
* {{Expy}}: Very subtle, but she's based off of Hercules- her hoodie is based off of the pelt of the Nemean Lion, among other things.
* MeaningfulName: [[CuddleBug 'Embrace']].
* OlderThanTheyLook: She's actually older than Jaune.
* PintSizedPowerhouse
* SuperStrength: Fitting for an expy of Hercules himself.

!! Maeve Arc
Jaune's second eldest sister.

* AloofDarkHairedGirl
* DarkActionGirl: Is definitely the creepiest and weirdest of Jaune's sisters.
** DarkMagicalGirl
* {{Expy}}: [[FireEmblemAwakening Her personality resembles Tharja]], while her name and costume resembles [[CelticMythology Scathach]] and her portrayal in ShinMegamiTensei. [[HotWitch Makes sense if you think about it....]]
* HotWitch: Yep. Even based off two of them, too.

* NiceHat

!! Aristomache, Artemisia and Amaranthe Arc
Jaune's younger sisters.

* BadassLongcoat: Amaranthe.

* TheDitz: Euphemia.
* {{Expy}} Of [[FireEmblemAwakening Lucina]] and [[CodeGeass Euphemia]].
* LampshadeHanging: Ruby and Yang lampshade how Elf can't find a name for them that isn't blatantly ripping off their real name. At least Euphemia is justified- many of the Arc family have Greek names (Aristomache, Alexander, Artemisia and Aspasia).
* WhipItGood / RoyalRapier: Lucina's weapon, implied to be the Falchion.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Other Beacon Characters]]
!! Vivi
A Weiss plushie brought to life by [[AppliedPhlebotinum Life Dust]]. Currently serving Velvet.

* BadassAdorable: Despite being a plushie, she still manages to keep up with the rest of the cast, even Blake, the resident BadAss.
** LittleMissBadass: [[GirlWithPsychoWeapon She is also dwarfed by everyone, even her own mallet.]]
* CompanionCube: She WAS this before she was exposed to Life Dust.
** LivingToys: What she is now.
* CuteBruiser: She is a plushie who manages to bat Blake out of the air with her humongous hammer and fight her on equal ground.
* DeadpanSnarker: Yes, even she has her moments.
** She does seem to snark a lot, though.
* DropTheHammer: The hammer is several times her size and she draws it out of HammerSpace.
* FunSize: A plushie version of Weiss.
* HypercompetentSidekick: To Velvet.
* TheLancer: Is it not obvious yet?
* StraightMan: To Velvet, again.
* TokenMiniMoe: She is the smallest character in the cast.
* TheUnintelligible: The only vocalization she can make is 'Pi'. However, most characters can understand her and this trope is averted in 'The Diary of Vivi', where she writes in normal English.

!! Norn
A Persocom constructed by Blake. She is implied to have become sentient due to exposure to [[AppliedPhlebotinum Life Dust]].

* HypercompetentSidekick: To Blake.
* MeaningfulName: The author picked her name to go with [[{{Chobits}} Elda and Freya]]. As she was exposed to Life Dust, she is most likely sentient, turning her, technically, into a Chobits.
* NinjaMaid: She even wields kunai.
* RidiculouslyHumanRobot: As a [[{{Chobits}} Persocom]], she obviously fits this.
* ServileSnarker: The few times she actually speaks, she comes off as one.

!!Sir Lyserg / The [=RWBYSaurus=]
A dinosaur wearing a top hat and monocle Blake ordered from the Schnee Dust Company.

* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs
* HighClassGlass: Wears a monocle and a top hat.
* InsistentTerminology: He is a Utahraptor, not a Velociraptor.
* QuintessentialBritishGentleman: Despite being, well, a dinosaur.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: He is a dinosaur. Nobody except Weiss comments on this.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Beacon Staff]]
!!Glynda Goodwitch
Ozpin's assistant and a teacher of Dust Theory.

* ACupAngst: Used to have this, [[SheIsAllGrownUp but then she changed]] and [[BuxomIsBetter gained huge tracts of land.]]
* BiTheWay: Heavily implied to have a crush on both Ozpin and Cinder.
** Not even implied. She most definitely has one as confirmed by 'Diary of Glynda Goodwitch'.
* ButtMonkey: Suffers at the hands of Cinder's pranks.
** Even when she was a kid, she was this.
* BuxomIsBetter: Definitely is this now.
* CompensatingForSomething: In Diary, she's constantly bashing the figures of [[MsFanservice Cinder, Yin, Yuko and Yona.]] [[ACupAngst I wonder why?]]
* CovertPervert: Despite claiming to hate perversion, she attempts to flirt with Ozpin during the BeachEpisode.
** And Diary reveals a LOT of her perversion. [[TsunDere Not that she'll ever admit it.]]
* DrivesLikeCrazy: She fails her driving test this way.
* GenerationXerox: She and Cinder have the same kind of relationship Weiss and Yang have.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: 'The Diary of Glynda Goodwitch', in this case.
* OnlySaneMan: Out of all the staff in Beacon, she comes off as the sanest. Only Yona acts more sane.
** NotSoAboveItAll: She also enjoys cosplaying. And The Diary of Glynda Goodwitch shows a lot of her crazy side as well.
* MsFanservice: Most definitely.
* {{Tsundere}}: For Cinder AND Ozpin. She even dresses like [[FateStayNight Rin Tohsaka]] one time.
** She also squees over Chieri. Not that she'd ever admit it.

!!Cinder Fall
The former BigBad and now the teacher of Self-Defense at Beacon.

* AnswersToTheNameOfGod: She prefers this, [[JapaneseHonorifics Cinder-sempai or Cinder-chan]] over Professor Fall.
* BadassTeacher: But of course, it's Cinder. She can take on her entire Self-Defense class and win, only falling to Ruby using Weiss' tactics. She also beats up a Grimm for daring to hurt her class.
** BewareTheSillyOnes: She is much sillier and less serious than she is in canon, but she retains the same skills and power her canon counterpart has. There is a reason Ozpin hired her for Self-Defense specifically, and it is this.
* BerserkButton: Hurting any of her students. Also, not having her [[TrademarkFavoriteFood burritos]]. More comically, not being paid attention to as [[ButtMonkey Dove and Russell]] found out.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: She is extremely eccentric in her actions and quite childish, much to [[BeleagueredAssistant Roman, and later Tohru's]] despair.
* CompanionCube: Burrito-kun, which acts as a ShoutOut to [[CodeGeass Cheese-kun]].
** It gets blown up off-screen during 'A Melodic Comedy' by Lukas.
* CoolTeacher: Offers food as a prize for beating her in combat.
* CurbStompBattle: She inflicts this on most of the Self-Defense class except Ruby. And then later on a Beowolf summoned by a MarySue.
* EccentricMentor: Decides that the best way to train her students is to [[CurbStompBattle fight them herself]] and [[TrademarkFavoriteFood demands burritos as part of homework]].
* TheGadfly: Towards Roman and Glynda.
* GenerationXerox: An older version of Yang.
* HeelFaceTurn: Did one along with Roman at an unspecified time (implied to be around the time of Volume 2) before the events of Weiss Reacts.
** FaceHeelTurn: Did this sometime after The Diary of Glynda Goodwitch and before Weiss Reacts, [[ForegoneConclusion obviously]].
* IntergenerationalFriendship: With Yang.
* LoveableSexManiac: Just like Yang.
* MamaBear: Towards her class. Seriously, don't hurt them. [[BerserkButton Cinder doesn't like that.]]
* NoodleIncident: Her HeelFaceTurn reportedly involved burritos, and there was a horrible incident when the local burrito parlor ran out just as she walked in to get some.
* SenseiChan: Acts like this.
* ShoutOut: [[MiraiNikki Deus ex Gasai]], a large meat cleaver. Also counts as {{Foreshadowing}} for what Velvet does years later in 'Weiss Reacts to TvTropes'.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Burritos. [[NoodleIncident Horrible things happen if she doesn't get her burritos.]]
* {{Troll}}: To Glynda, Roman, Ozpin....the list goes on.
** She also trolls everyone in Beacon.
* {{Tsundere}}: Type A to Roman, type B to everyone else.

!! Ozpin
The headteacher of Beacon.

* TheGadfly: Towards Glynda.
** He's this towards everyone, as it turns out.
* {{Troll}}: Most definitely. His most major appearance involves [[CrowningMomentOfFunny making Glynda declare him the God-Emperor of Swag.]]
** Even more of one during the Diary Arc.

!! Ludwig Amadeus
The teacher of Music at Beacon.

* BadassGrandpa: Appears to be the oldest teacher, and claims to have taught Freya, Cinder and Glynda in the same class.
* CoolOldGuy: From what little is seen about him.
* MeaningfulName: He shares the name of [[LudwigVanBeethoven two]] [[WolfgangAmadeusMozart famous]] composers.

!! Gretchen Faust
A teacher at Beacon..... [[WhyDoYouKeepChangingJobs but nobody is sure of what exactly.]]

* CanonImmigrant: She and Alexander Arc are from another fanfic based on Weiss Reacts written by a different author.
* EccentricMentor: Definitely. She, for one, ''organises a battle in the east wing of Signal.'' Why? To decide the culture festival's events.
* FaustianBargain: She's named after the TropeNamer and his LoveInterest, and Roman implies that's exactly what she did.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She's mentioned to not have aged despite having taught the staff members around the same time as Professor Amadeus. Given that Amadeus is fairly old....
** She looks nineteen, and yet is old enough to have taught Glynda and her friends when Glynda herself was younger than the main protagonists.
* RenaissanceMan: Well, woman. From what can be told about her, she has a lot of experience in various areas of study.
* SenseiChan
* WhyDoYouKeepChangingJobs: Has a lot of jobs and subjects.

!! Yona Arc
Jaune's mother and teacher of Weaponcraft.

* ActionMom
* BadassLongcoat: She wears this over her..... [[{{Stripperiffic}} well, we decline to call it clothing.]]
* {{BFG}}: Her weapon of choice.
* {{Expy}}: Of [[GurrenLagann Yoko]]. Also, WilliamTell.
* FieryRedhead
* FriendlySniper
* MsFanservice: Of course, she's an expy of [[GurrenLagann Yoko]].
* OnlySaneMan: Along with Glynda out of all the staff in Beacon.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her clothing of choice.
* {{Tsundere}}: She shows some tendencies of this.

!! Peter Port and Bartholomew Oobleck

* FluffyTamer: Port.
* EldritchAbomination: Oobleck summons these to attain more speed.
* ThoseTwoGuys

!! Beth Lupin
The caretaker, groundskeeper, janitorial staff and IT technician staff of Beacon.

* AlmightyJanitor
* BadAss: The only staffer who cleans up after everyone's antics. There's a reason everything is usually fixed by every chapter, and it's Beth.
* DeadpanSnarker
* {{Expy}}: Of {{Literature/Beowulf}}.
* OnlySaneMan: Much to her [[SurroundedByIdiots distress]].
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She's smaller than the main cast. She's also capable of cleaning up after HumongousMecha and StuffBlowingUp.
* TheRival: To Yang.

!!Tukson
Beacon's librarian as of chapter 91.

* BadAss: Ohoh, despite his two or three lines of dialogue, he's already this.
** BadassBaritone: His voice is described as this.
** BadassBookworm: He's also the librarian.
** Tukson does not disappoint when it comes to being BadAss. To wit, he pulls out a ''Kamehameha'' made from his own Aura that even resident BadAss Blake can barely deflect while inside the Lagann, manages to fight a three-on-one fight and nearly win, taking two ultimate attacks to take down, and then handing Blake and Yang their backsides without weapons.
* BareFistedMonk: He ''needs'' no weapons.
* BoisterousBruiser
* EarlyBirdCameo: Tukson was revealed much earlier when Beth describes the training room as [[ChekhovsGag 'as if a pack of pumas stormed in and ripped everything up']]- him being a puma Faunus.
* {{Expy}}: Of [[GurrenLagann Lordgenome]]. His attacks take inspiration from [[DragonballZ Goku]], [[LeagueOfLegends Udyr]], [[StreetFighter Ryu, Ken]] and [[FistOfTheNorthStar Kenshiro]].
* HumongousMecha: He owns one, the Lazengann.
* KiAttacks: His Semblance.
* RatedMForManly
* SparedByTheAdaptation: Tukson's canon counterpart was killed unceremoniously in the first episode of Volume 2.
* TricksterArchetype: Is said to be a master prankster, just like Cinder and Ysengrim.
* WorthyOpponent: Has been seeking one for a long time, from what little is known of Tukson thus far.
** He found one in Blake.
* YouAreAlreadyDead: His Aura exploding technique is a less lethal version, subduing an enemy by rupturing all of their aura.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Other Characters]]
!! Alexander Arc
Jaune's uncle and a CEO of an as-of-yet unnamed company.

* BadAss: From what little is known about him, he has a reputation as this.
* BashBrothers: With Andreas and Siegfried.
* BoisterousBruiser
** GeniusBruiser
* CanonImmigrant: He and Gretchen Faust originate from a different fanfic based on Weiss Reacts written by a different author.
* DynamicEntry: RunningGag in 'Diary of Glynda Goodwitch'- he often enters scenes with his chariot, drawn by [[EverythingsWorseWithWolves Beowolves]].
* {{Expy}}: Of [[FateZero Iskander]].
* FluffyTamer: He tames Beowolves to serve as his stead.
* LargeHam: '''GLORIOUS CONQUEST.'''
* RatedMForManly: Of course, he's ''[[FateZero Iskander]]''.

!! Andreas Arc
Jaune's father. Secretly the reincarnated Kamina of GurrenLagann fame.

* ActuallyIAmHim: When Blake catches out his lie about not being Kamina.
* BackFromTheDead: He voluntarily left the afterlife. Why? [[ItAmusedMe He was bored of being dead.]]
* BadAss: What did you expect? It's freaking [[GurrenLagann Kamina]]!
** The reason he was reincarnated? He was ''bored of being dead''.
* BashBrothers: With Alexander and Siegfried.
* BoisterousBruiser: What did you expect? It's '''Kamina'''.
* TheCasanova: Well, enough that he can seduce Death, at any rate, into letting him go free.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: His motivation for not revealing his real identity.
* LargeHam: He's freaking ''Kamina''. What did you expect?
* MeaningfulName: Andreas' linguistic root is a word for 'man'. [[FridgeBrilliance If you think about it, its pretty obvious why Kamina would get a name like that.]]
* OCStandIn: For Jaune's dad. [[GurrenLagann Only not really.]]
* PapaWolf: Towards Jaune.
* PeggySue: Is actually the reincarnated [[GurrenLagann Kamina]].
* RatedMForManly: Well, of course. He's freaking ''Kamina''.
* {{Reincarnation}}: See all of the tropes above.

!! Siegfried Schnee
Weiss' father and the CEO of the Schnee Dust Corporation.

* AbusiveParents: Actually averted in a RWBY fanfic for once. Most fanfics depict Weiss' father as an abusive or overly-controlling man, but Siegfried, well.... [[BoisterousBruiser is]] [[ShipperOnDeck very]] [[GoodParents very]] [[PapaWolf different.]]
* BadAss: Has a reputation as one. It helps that his name is associated with one of the [[TheRingOfTheNibelung most badass characters ever]] and that he hangs out with- and matches- [[GurrenLagann Kamina]].
** BadassBookworm: Need we remind you that he is also a CEO of one of the biggest companies in the Reactsverse?
** BewareTheNiceOnes: He has one of the nicest portrayals of Weiss' father in any fanfic featuring him. He also usurped his father when he made the mistake of abusing Weiss.
* BashBrothers: With Andreas and Alexander.
* BerserkButton: [[PapaWolf Do. Not. Abuse. Weiss.]]
** Don't hurt his TrueCompanions. You will regret it.
* {{BFS}}: Balmung.
* BoisterousBruiser: Then again, [[FateZero considering]] [[GurrenLagann who he hangs out with]]....
** GeniusBruiser: He IS the CEO of the Schnee Dust Company.
* DotingParent: While Weiss is sometimes embarrassed of him, she truly loves him and there's a reason why.
* TheDragonslayer: His weapon Balmung is called this and he literally slew a dragon Grimm. [[ShoutOut Called Fafnir.]]
* {{Expy}}: His weapons are based off of [[{{Berserk}} Guts]].
* IntergenerationalFriendship: With Yang.
* OCStandIn: For Weiss' dad.
* PapaWolf: Oh, most definitely. The main reason he usurped his father as CEO was because [[AbusiveParents he abused Weiss]] and [[StarCrossedLovers forced his wife away from him]].
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: What he did to his father after he abused Weiss.
* ShipperOnDeck: For Ruby and Weiss. [[TsunDere Weiss is unamused.]]
* {{Troll}}: To his own daughter.

!! Roman Torchwick

* BeleagueredAssistant: To Cinder.
* DeadpanSnarker: The few times he appears, he often calls out Cinder on her obsession with burritos.
** Chapter 75 displays his snarker tendencies more.
* HeelFaceTurn: Did one at an unspecified time (implied to be around the time of Volume 2) before Weiss Reacts along with Cinder.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite being an immense snarker, he does show a soft spot for Chieri. And earlier, he squees over sitting next to Rise in a club.
* OnlySaneMan: Again, to Cinder.
* RealMenWearPink: He is a [[{{VideoGame/Persona4}} Risette]] fanboy and his favourite anime? Anime/CardcaptorSakura.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Pulls this due to the insanity of the Diary Arc for a week. Cinder searches for a replacement quickly because [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking who would buy her burritos if her slave isn't around?]]
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Did we mention he was a Risette fanboy?
* {{Tsundere}}: A male type A to...well, everyone.

!! Freya Schnee
Weiss' mother and a Vytalian J-pop idol.

* HappilyMarried: To Siegfried.
* IdolSinger: From what little is known about her.
* ParentalAbandonment: Enforced by Weiss' grandfather. [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge Siegfried did not take this well.]]
** Subverted as of chapter 69.
* OCStandIn: For Weiss' mom.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Despite being Weiss' mother, she looks young enough to be compared with [[{{VideoGame/Persona4}} Rise]] and [[{{Main/AKB0048}} Chieri]].
* SecondLove: To Siegfried, after [[{{AKB0048}} Chieri.]]

!! Siegmund Schnee
Weiss' grandfather, and an as-of yet unseen character that nonetheless has had an effect on the Reactsverse.

* AbusiveParents: What he was to Weiss. This, combined with forcing Freya to leave Siegfried, did [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge not have a good effect upon the latter.]]
* BigBad: As far as the [[SliceOfLife Reactsverse]] can have one anyway. He is the reason Weiss had a terrible childhood and the reason her mother had to leave her.
* FantasticRacism: Is definitely a racist to Faunus.
* TheGhost: He has yet to show up in any Reactsverse fics.
*JerkAss: Despite having absolutely no part in the Reactsverse present, he still manages to come off as this. To count:
** He abused Weiss when she was a child.
** He forced Siegfried, his own son, to cut off links with all of his friends and his wife.
** He is the main reason the Faunus hate- or at least used to hate- the Schnee Dust Corporation.
* KnightOfCerebus: Every time he's mentioned, the story takes a turn for the darker temporarily.
* NoNameGiven: If hints are to be taken, though, he might well be named [[TheRingOfTheNibelung Siegmund]].
** His name is confirmed to be Siegmund as of chapter 73.

!! Ysengrim Belladonna
Blake's father.

* AnimalMotifs: A wolf.
* BadAss: From what little we know of him.
* {{Troll}}: Is one of the participants in the Antic War of Glynda's generation. To be in an Antic War practically requires this.

!! The Arc Family
Jaune's aunts and uncles.

* AnimalMotifs: A fox for Reynard, a lion for Aria.
* BadassFamily
* {{Expy}}: All of them:
** Reynard is an expy of, well, Reynard the Fox.
** Azur and Cota Arc are expies of [[GurrenLagann Simon and Nia]], respectively.
** Aria Arc is an expy of [[FateZero Saber from the Fourth Grail War]].
* MeaningfulName: Reynard is a LoveableRogue, Azur has navy blue hair and Cota is based off the French word for 'near'.
* ThisIsADrill: Azur's weapon of choice.

!! Emerald Sustrai

* CompanionCube: Her Cinder plushie.
* GenkiGirl: Compared to Mercury.
* HelloNurse: Has this effect on Fionn and Fox.
* IdolSinger: Is part of a duo with Mercury.
* StalkerWithACrush: To Cinder.
* {{Yandere}}: For Cinder, again.

!! Mercury Black

* IdolSinger: Part of a duo with Emerald.
* OnlySaneMan: Out of Emerald and Neo.

!! Neo
The manager of Madrigal, Emerald and Mercury's pop singer duo.

* CuteButPsycho: Most definitely.

* IdolSinger: Duh.
* LikeAGodToMe: Gets this from [[DeadpanSnarker Roman]] of all people, as well as Yang and Ruby.
* MythologyGag: [[{{Persona4}} Cardin isn't the first soft-hearted jerk with a love of knitting and plushies she's befriended.]]
* NiceGirl: But of course, it's Rise.

!! Nanako Dojima

* CallBack: [[{{Persona4}} She calls Jaune a manwhore]]- [[ThePornomancer appropriate considering Jaune's Semblance.]]

* LikeAGodToMe: Ruby and Yang absolutely lose it when they meet her in person.
* NoNameGiven: Her first cameo. Her second makes it very clear who she is.

* ImpliedLoveInterest: Yukari.
* WalkingSpoiler: His existence spoils the end of one chapter and completely changes the context of several others.

* {{Yandere}}: The Goddess of them.

!! [[CodeGeass Jeremiah Gottwald]]
A student at Beacon during Glynda's year.

* BeleagueredAssistant: To Cinder, temporarily, after Roman [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere took an impromptu vacation]].
