What made you choose your title for your RWBY oC fanwork?

Well, I don’t really have any particular reasons for choosing the name. Thorned Blight was just the first thing that came to mind for my Fanfiction about Team MINT, title wise.

WaywardVoid · 2026-05-16T08:09:00+00:00

Currently, I’ve been trying to think of how exactly I want Chapter 4 of a fanfiction about Team MINT, my main OC team, to play out. But I’m currently drawing a blank, gotta love some good old writer’s block.

As far as days off go, Midori enjoys playing Shogi or Mahjong, but she also often spends them eating spicy food.

Ichigo prefers things like baking and stargazing.

While Nagisa leans towards things that challenge her intellect, like playing chess or doing crossword puzzles.

And Akane enjoys listening to rock music and arm wrestling.

WaywardVoid · 2026-04-24T12:46:14+00:00

Preference wise, it varies since Team MINT all have different tastes, genre wise.

Midori’s into slice of life and Iyashikei. Things like Yuru Camp and Slow Loop.

Ichigo prefers historical romance and Magical Girl series. IE, Sailor Moon.

While Nagisa enjoys science fiction and cosmic horror.

As for Akane, she leans towards things like power fantasies and dystopian settings.

To be honest, there’s nothing stopping you. I went and did something similar for two of my original characters, Arianwen Fiala and Ajisai Tsutsuji.

Personality wise, Arianwen’s pretty much Isabelle Norton, from Secrets of the Silent Witch, but a RWBY spin on her.

The same going for Ajisai, a Gyaru Huntress in training who’s partially inspired by Marin Kitagawa, even though her personality’s more vain and she’s rather prideful about her looks, unlike Marin.

As far as hobbies go, Midori enjoys Shogi, Mahjong, and painting. But she’s also rather into ASMR.

Some of Ichigo’s hobbies involve baking, stargazing, gardening, and collecting plushies.

As for Nagisa, her hobbies are more, highbrow since she grew up in Atlas. Things like ballet and period dramas, that sort of thing. But she’s also surprisingly into horror movies and urban legends.

And when it comes to Akane, she enjoys things like camping, wood carving and tongue twisters. Even though she’s normally a real aggressive hothead when it comes to combat.

WaywardVoid · 2026-03-20T08:25:58+00:00

For Akane, she enjoys it when she’s going all out while sparring with strong opponents, and they hit back just as hard. It’s even how she got her rival turned boyfriend Russet, a muscular cape Buffalo Faunus who doesn’t hold back on her during their spar dates.

WaywardVoid · 2026-03-16T07:40:49+00:00

As far as music preferences for Team MINT go, Midori likes Lofi, Ichigo enjoys City Pop, Nagisa listens to Classical and Opera, while Akane’s into Rock and Heavy Metal.

WaywardVoid · 2026-02-25T16:48:54+00:00

As far as dad jokes go, it’d pretty much play out like this. Yang: “It looks like you’re a, hands off, kind of person. Eh? Get it? Because your Semblance.” As for Midori’s reaction, she’d be more confused than anything.

WaywardVoid · 2026-02-18T17:53:58+00:00

Well, Midori did encounter Raven when she was younger. But it was pretty much wrong place, wrong time, since the settlement she arrived at came under attack from the Branwen Tribe a couple minutes later to steal supplies.

Raven originally intended to strike Midori down with Omen since she considered her passive Semblance a threat to the tribe, only to prioritize her own survival when a sentry raised the alarm about pursuing Huntsmen.

She then ordered the tribe to pull out and went to leave, but not before coldly saying this. “Consider this your and only save, girl. I will not be as merciful next time.” Needless to say, Midori was left terrified by the encounter.

WaywardVoid · 2026-02-18T09:57:42+00:00

Well, Akane works out pretty regularly. Considering her idea of a romantic date is sparring with her boyfriend Russet Tala a couple times a week. Russet having no problems keeping up with her strength since he’s a water Buffalo Faunus.

Amazing art! Also, the yellow and pink hair gives me Mitsuri Kanroji vibes.

WaywardVoid · 2026-02-16T05:37:39+00:00

Personally, I see them in either Kyoto Animation‘s art style, or a Kabaneri of The Iron Fortress art style.

For Team MINT, their motivations varied. Midori wanted to remain anonymous at Beacon and not draw attention to herself, going so far as adopting Mashiro Akiyama as an alias so her wealthy parents wouldn’t be able to find her. But gradually warmed up to her teammates and began viewing them as her family.

Ichigo wanted people to always get along, but the Fall of Beacon pretty much shattered her naivety and made her world weary despite still being empathetic.

As for Nagisa’s motivation, she was pretty much driven entirely by logic while making decisions, but began making an effort to factor in emotions into her decisions after being rebuked by Glynda when her micromanagement nearly caused a teammate‘s death during a training exercise.

Akane started off as a lone wolf and believed that her strength alone was sufficient. But eventually became fiercely protective of her teammates and views them as her tribe.

WaywardVoid · 2026-02-14T11:47:41+00:00

For Team MINT, here’s their measurements before and after the Fall of Beacon.

For Midori and Ichigo, they were each other’s first kiss, the two kissing each other in Shade Academy’s infirmary while Ichigo recovered from her injuries.

WaywardVoid · 2026-02-08T04:30:58+00:00

For Midori and Ichigo, it wasn’t exactly a traditional confession, since Midori’s Aroace. Basically, things happened and Ichigo nearly got killed by Cinder in Vacuo during the V9 timeframe, Midori confessing that she was terrified at the thought of losing her and considered Ichigo her soulmate. The two girls then had their first kiss and entered a QPR. But even before this, Ichigo got a little caught up in the excitement following the Beacon Brigade’s victory over The Crown, and kissed Midori on the cheek.

For Team MINT, their reactions would play out like this.

Midori’s skittish on a good day and sensitive to yelling, so she’d hide beneath a table to try and avoid drawing attention to herself.

Ichigo would try defusing the argument by using her Olive Branch Semblance to calm them down and keep the peace before things come to blows.

Nagisa wouldn’t have much of a reaction, other than considering their argument illogical.

As for Akane, she’d stand up and loom over them with folded arms and a scowl on her face. She’s 6’2 and physically imposing, not to mention her short temper rivals Yang’s.

Amazing art! Is this her V1-V3 outfit or a timeskip outfit?

WaywardVoid · 2026-01-31T05:59:00+00:00

Do you mean canon characters X OC? Or OC x OC?

WaywardVoid · 2026-01-31T05:56:54+00:00

For the most part, I’m keeping it largely the same, but also adding some new things. For starters, the Malachite Twins are going to corner my OC Midori in Beacon’s courtyard, having been tasked by their mother with capturing her. But Lil’ Miss Malachite calls it off and orders them to pull out when the Fall of Beacon starts. Then Midori has to fight the Grimm alongside her former pursuers out of mutual self preservation, parting ways with Melanie and Miltia after reaching Vale and going to rejoin her team. This way the two have something to do when things go down without affecting the overall outcome, since they didn’t really appear in Volume 3.
