Clothing Style: Onyx tends to dressing in a more formal style than most, believing that one should always look their best. As such, he usually wears a black suit with a light blue tie that matches his eyes, black gloves that usually have dust-woven into them, nice black shoes(which also sport a hidden steel toe, and when he knows that he's going into a fight, he can add reinforced steel plates to the outfit, all of them painted white in color to go with his outfit.

[h3]COMBAT[/h3]

Weapon: Onyx has for his weapons two specially made hand-cannons, made of a very durable metal alloy and carry a heck of a punch, especially when infused with either dust or his Semblance. The two powerful pistols can also change into a pair of hilts for their secondary form: a pair of energy swords fueled by Noir's Semblance. These blades are string and wickedly sharp, and the length is about as long as your average short sword, and can be either one-sided or double-sided depending on what he might need in a situation. The swords can also be infused with dust from the dust bullets, changing it's properties and allowing for a great deal of versatility.

Semblance: Energy Projection and Manipulation: Onyx's semblance allows him to alter his Aura into a form energy that he can use offensively, either by doing things like infusing it into his hands and feet as he fights to increase his attack power or infusing it into his bullets to give them more kick, and defensively , through things like forming a barrier in front of him to defend against attacks.

Dust: As mentioned above, Onyx uses dust in his guns and his swords to increase their versatility on the battlefield, but he also uses it to increase his semblances abilities as well, using whatever dust is infused in his gloves to augment his hand to hand combat skills, either by giving them an explosive impact with some fire dust or messing up an opponent's flow by freezing one of their limbs with some Ice dust.

Background: Onyx is, how you might say, the subject of strange circumstances. You see, while he was born a Faunus, his parents were killed early on in the war, leaving him an orphan. The Orphanage where he'd spend the majority of his life also happened to be headed by an old Faunus huntress who was tough as nails, rough as sandpaper, and would chew you up and spit you out for even thinking of giving her any sass. She was also an accomplished martial arts trainer, and was always willing to teach any of the kids who thought they could handle it. Onyx was one of them, eager to learn and please as he threw himself into the task . . . and was immediately tossed around like a hacky sack.

The old huntress didn't play around, offering strict training that pushed the students to their very limits, and then asked them to break those limits until they found new ones. It was an intense, almost soul-crushing experience, and so rough that it caused most of those who tried to give up. All except for one. Even back then, when he couldn't have been much older than 8, Onyx was filled with a stern determination. Whenever he wasn't training with the old woman, he was going to academies, learning to become Hunter do that he could help people all over the world by fighting the Grimm.

Even after he was adopted at the age of 12 by a nice humsn family, he still went to the old Huntress for traoning, wanting to know everything he could from her. Unfortunately, she passed away about 3 years later, her heart no longer able to keep with the stress of life. The loss struck a deep blow, but Onyx worked his way through it, and goes through his life looking for ways to improve the skills he's learned, so that he can be of more help to the people of Remnant, where ever they may be.

Character Theme: My idea for this character is equal parts the awesomeness that are white tigers(seriously, they look majestic and regal as fuck) ands the thoughts of people who're revolutionary leads an what not. I've no real specific inspiration for this character, just a desire to do a RWBY RP, and an idea that evolved from it.
