Maybe its time to revive this old criminal. A genderbent AU of Roman Torchwick. All the sass an and ass to match~
Roma's personality was a mixture between that of a formal gentlewoman and a ruthless criminal. She emitted charm and spoke calmly even in the middle of an armed robbery. Roma emitted hostility when upset or frustrated, as seen in "No Brakes" when she ordered the White Fang to help her shoot Ruby as she escaped, bent her weapon and slammed a subordinate backward.Roma shows many classic signs of being a possible psychopath. She takes a sadistic kind of pleasure in committing elaborate crimes and demonstrates little to no guilt over any of his actions or how they might go on to affect others. She is fully aware of how the rest of the world sees her as a dangerous menace to society, but makes no effort to try and justify any of her actions and even seems to take a twisted kind of pride in her infamy, believing herself to be the most wanted criminal in Vale and seeing it as an accomplishment.
She also demonstrated a ruthless streak, evidently willing to use lethal force on Ruby when she foiled her scheme, even going so far as to laugh after successfully shooting her down in "Black and White". In "Heroes and Monsters", she demonstrated a jaded side when she chastised Ruby for her being blind to the cruelty of the real world while trying to beat her with her cane. Judging by her elaborate outfit and accessories, Roma also had expensive tastes, a common stereotype of Mafia Dons and other organized crime kingpins. Roma believed she'd never be happy, but regardless attempted to buy her way to it. Because of this, she attempted multiple schemes in order to become rich quickly, such as when she stole and monopolized Vale's coffee supply.
Alright now that that's out of the way, and you have a general idea of the character lets talk how my silly au works. Typically I play her after the fall of beacon having survived the griffon attack. She's made her way to either Atlas or Mistral to try and start anew, either by rebuilding her criminal empire or going legit seeing where things go.
Roma can be well equipped for those who desire it.
I don't know what to expect here. I'm a pretty niche character from a series that isn't getting a lot of love that it once had. Maybe I'll be lucky and see some old rwby friends. But hey here to have fun right?
