One great fanfiction could be 'Shadows of Prejudice'. It delves deep into the daily struggles of Faunus characters facing discrimination. The author vividly portrays how they are treated differently in society, from being excluded from certain jobs to facing verbal abuse in public. Another is 'The Faunus' Stand' which focuses on a group of Faunus who decide to fight back against discrimination through peaceful means. They organize protests and try to raise awareness among the non - Faunus population about the unfair treatment. And 'A Faunus' Journey' follows the story of a young Faunus trying to make a name for herself in a world that constantly tries to put her down because of her species.
Well, 'Breaking the Chains' is a notable one. In this fanfiction, it shows how Faunus discrimination has been ingrained in the RWBY world for generations. It has complex characters who are both victims and perpetrators of this discrimination. For example, there's a character who has internalized the discrimination and is initially against his own Faunus kind. Also, 'Emerging from the Shadows' is quite good. It details the story of a Faunus family trying to survive in a discriminatory environment. The family has to hide their Faunus traits at times just to get by, and it shows the emotional toll this takes on them. Then there's 'Hope for the Faunus' which is more about a new generation of humans and Faunus trying to build a more inclusive society.
One popular RWBY Ruby Faunus fanfiction is 'Ruby's Faunus Adventure'. It explores Ruby's interactions with the Faunus community in a really interesting way. The story delves into how Ruby, with her unique personality, navigates the cultural differences and prejudices that exist within the RWBY world regarding Faunus. It has some great character development and action scenes.
RWBY fanfictions explore Faunus discrimination in various ways. Some focus on the individual experiences of Faunus characters. For example, they might show a Faunus being denied entry to a certain place or being harassed on the street. Others look at it from a more systemic level, like how laws or social structures in the RWBY universe are set up to disadvantage the Faunus. They may also explore the emotional and psychological impacts on Faunus, such as feelings of self - loathing or anger.
One interesting RWBY Weiss Faunus fanfiction could be one where Weiss has to team up with a Faunus character and they initially clash due to their different backgrounds. As they face challenges together, they start to understand and respect each other. For example, they might be on a mission to retrieve a powerful relic and the Faunus character's unique abilities help them get through various obstacles. Another fanfiction might explore a world where Weiss discovers she has Faunus heritage herself and has to deal with the internal struggle of accepting this new identity while still being part of the Schnee family.
There are fanfictions where Ruby is a Faunus herself. Maybe she has some kind of cat - like Faunus trait. This would change how her teammates interact with her at first. For example, Weiss might have some initial prejudices to overcome, but as the story progresses, they all come to accept Ruby for who she is, Faunus or not. It could be a story about acceptance and friendship in the face of differences.
Well, there's 'Shadow of the Faunus'. In this fanfiction, the Faunus OC is a bit of an outcast, with powers that are both a blessing and a curse. It's full of mystery and action. 'The Faunus and the Huntress' is also a nice read. It tells the story of how a Faunus OC teams up with a huntress and they face different challenges together. Then there's 'Faunus in the City', which gives a great view of how a Faunus OC tries to fit into an urban environment in the RWBY universe.
There are quite a few out there. 'Phoenix Faunus: The New Hope' is a fanfiction that I really like. It presents the Phoenix Faunus as a sort of savior figure in the RWBY world. The author does a great job of describing the Phoenix Faunus's powers, like their ability to rise from ashes. And then there's 'The Phoenix Faunus Alliance' which is all about the Phoenix Faunus forming alliances with other groups in the RWBY universe to fight against common enemies.
Many RWBY Faunus OC in fanfictions have unique animal - like features related to their Faunus type. For example, a cat - Faunus might have cat - like ears and enhanced agility. They often face discrimination, which is a common theme in the RWBY world. And they usually have some special abilities related to their animal traits, like a bird - Faunus being able to fly short distances.
Common traits? Well, many Phoenix Faunus in fanfictions are depicted as having a strong sense of justice. Since they are often associated with the phoenix, a symbol of rebirth and renewal, they are driven to fight for what's right in the RWBY world. Additionally, their physical appearance might include some phoenix - like features, such as feathers or a fiery glow in their eyes. Their powers may also extend to flight in some cases, which is a very cool aspect that ties into the phoenix concept.
One popular RWBY Fox Faunus OC fanfiction is 'The Fox Amongst the Huntresses'. It has an interesting plot where the Fox Faunus OC has to overcome discrimination and prove herself in Beacon Academy. Another is 'A Fox's Tale in Remnant' which focuses on the OC's adventures across Remnant, forming alliances and facing Grimm. There's also 'Fox Faunus: Rising Star' that shows the growth of the OC from a nobody to a respected figure in the RWBY universe.
One common trait is enhanced senses, especially hearing and smell, like real foxes. For example, in many fanfictions, the Fox Faunus OC can detect danger from afar using their acute sense of smell. Another trait is agility. They are often depicted as being very quick and nimble, able to dodge attacks easily. Also, a lot of Fox Faunus OCs have a sly or clever nature, which helps them outwit their opponents.
