Mythical (RWBY Pyrrha Quest)

[Jemnite]

If we're going to fight her directly, shouldn't we send out a call to arms with the entirety of the initiates?

There's like 70~80 prospective hunters here, and there exactly 32 relics. If you want to get everyone to rally together around you, you're going to have to provide some pretty good reasoning as to why they should help you. You can't reasonably provide everyone with a relic. The numbers simply don't add up.

They should help us because they don't have relics right now, and their best chance at getting one is by either fighting with the mob of thirty something hunters or sneaking in from behind while the mob of thirty something hunters is charging, which also helps us.

If there aren't enough for everyone who fights, we can beat each other up for relics once we actually get a few. And it is a poor hunter who is unwilling to rally to defeat the greater threat. Pyrrha would probably tell them how they're a disappointment to the title hunter and should return to the safety of the kingdoms if they're unwilling to band together in brotherhood.

Frankly, if we beat Goodwitch and there are less than 30 hunters that help, we should take all the spare relics too. The stragglers don't deserve them.

[X] Spearpoint: All things can be solved with brute force. Line up all your pieces on the board, and then smash them into enemy. Break down the golems, engage Goodwitch, force her to yield and seize the artifacts by force. You've got to hand it to Jaune. This is just the sort of idea that you like.

To clarify, all our pieces is both all 8 of us and also no one else?

Or does Blake and Weiss not count, or does Yang have some friends that would want to get involved?

Not sure we should try and drag everyone in the camp with us because their is such a thing as to many people trying to do one thing getting in each other's way. Grabbing Yang's friends might work as a way to boost our numbers.

What I would like to know is how Vale still has a royal family while Atlas had a red style revolution that Wiess gets very defensive about. Plus there is the fact that she acts like a high and mighty aristocrat yet is also a big republican that is confusing me. Lastly if Nora feels so strongly about it what part of her statements did she feel the need to apologize for.

...Blake and Weiss make eight.

Yang's friends all made a go of it the first day and are licking their wounds in preparation of another go. Remember, the fact that Pyrrha got there late means that she missed out on quite a lot of stuff.

Atlas didn't manage to spread their Republicanism? They had just been through a very bleeding war, where Valian forces crushed them into submission and forcibly severed their alliance with Mistral, so even after the military couped the king, they weren't really in a position to do anything. OTOH Vale's king led them into a successful war where they repelled the Atlesian invaders. He was very popular at the end of the Great War.

Weiss is defensive of the Atlesian military council because her family is heavily tied into the Atlesian military-industrial complex. The SDC is basically wedded at the hip to the military. To be clear the Atlesian revolution wasn't like a Communist revolution or anything. People still own the fuck out of private property and individual enterprise is still highly valued.

Nora's apologizing because she basically acted like a bitch and flipped out for no reason.

[X] Have everyone attack at once.
-[X] no, really, everyone
--[X] when you said everyone, did you stutter? You meant literally every person in camp. All at once.

If we don't gather literally the entire camp that's alright, but we should be able to get at more than we already have. If people have a problem with the fact that there aren't enough pieces to go around, they can either challenge it on their own and fail, wait until we've taken them all and fail, or join us in taking them and have an actual chance of getting a piece after.

I'm assuming that Pyrrha knows of at least a few stories of bitter enemies standing together against the Grimm, so this would be a good time to us that for inspiration.


This can be seen like the bell test in Naruto. You have no shot at winning on your own*, but if you band together you just might pull it off. You could work with no more people than there are bells to go around, but that hurts your chances of getting the bells in the first place. In the bell test, no matter how you look at it, a 2 out of 3 chance to pass is far better than having no chance at all.



*unless you're an overpowered OOC problem, but that's usually in bad fanfics (or humor focused ones)
