Weiss Schnee is one of the main protagonists of RWBY. She is a Huntress, a former student of the now-defunct Beacon Academy, and former heiress of the Schnee Dust Company. Her weapon of choice is a Multi-Action Dust Rapier (MADR) named Myrtenaster. As the former heiress of the vastly influential Schnee Dust Company, Weiss made her first appearance in the "White" Trailer. After enrolling in Beacon against the wishes of her father, Jacques Schnee, she becomes a member of Team RWBY alongside Ruby Rose, Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long. She is the younger sister of Winter Schnee and the older sister of Whitley Schnee. Following a lengthy battle against Cinder Fall, Weiss was blasted off a platform and into the void under the Central Location, landing in the Ever After. In “Of Solitude and Self”, after defeating the Curious Cat, she and her friends return to Remnant, where they arrive in the Kingdom of Vacuo.
