The reincarnated 'Si' could also have an impact on the overall plot of RWBY. In the original story, Salem's goal is to destroy the world or at least reshape it in her own image. But if 'Si' is now in Salem's body, they might have a different view of how the world should be. They could work towards a more harmonious co - existence between humans, Faunus, and the world itself. This would mean changing Salem's old plans and perhaps even allying with the heroes of RWBY, like Ruby and her team, to create a better future for Remnant.
Another thing that could occur is a change in the relationships within the RWBY world. If 'Si' reincarnated into Salem, they would have pre - existing relationships with all the characters that Salem had interacted with. This could lead to some very interesting dynamics. For instance, Cinder, who was once Salem's subordinate, might find herself in a very different position. The reincarnated 'Si' could try to reform Cinder, seeing potential for good in her rather than using her as a tool for evil as Salem did.
One possibility is that the reincarnated character might use their knowledge from their previous life to change certain events in the RWBY world. For example, they could try to prevent some of the earlier tragedies that occurred. They might also have a different approach to training the Huntsmen and Huntresses, perhaps introducing new techniques or strategies based on their modern - day knowledge.
Well, if someone reincarnates into Salem, they'd likely face a whole lot of moral dilemmas. Salem is a complex and often villainous character in RWBY. They might try to change her path, but they'd have to deal with her existing power and all the enemies she's made. It could also lead to some really interesting interactions with the other characters like Ozpin, who has a long - standing feud with Salem.
Well, they'd first have to deal with Salem's powers. It's not easy to suddenly have such great and dark powers. They might struggle to control them at first. For example, Salem can manipulate Grimm, and the reincarnated 'Si' might accidentally summon Grimm when they don't mean to, causing chaos in the areas around them.
Well, it could be about Si somehow getting transported into the RWBY world and gradually taking on the characteristics and powers of Salem. Maybe Si starts to influence the existing power dynamics in the RWBY universe, causing chaos among the various factions like the Huntsmen and the Grimm. For example, Si could start to manipulate some of the characters, using knowledge from the real world to outwit them and further Salem's goals, even if it's unconsciously at first.
Blake Belladonna would also make a great main character. Given her own past with the White Fang and her knowledge of different power structures, she could try to understand what's happening to Si. And Yang Xiao Long, with her powerful fighting skills and protective nature towards her sister Ruby, would likely get involved. She might be the one who has the most direct confrontations with Si as they turn into Salem, trying to knock some sense into them.
If Ruby joins Salem in the fanfiction, it could be a very dark turn for Ruby. Salem might manipulate Ruby into believing that her methods are the only way to bring about a new order. However, Ruby's friends would never give up on her. They would try to rescue her, and in the process, Ruby might have a change of heart and turn against Salem, leading to an epic showdown.
The challenges are numerous. First, Salem has a long - standing enmity with Ozpin and many others. The SI would need to navigate those relationships. Also, Salem has a certain ideology that has driven her actions for centuries. Changing that mindset would be a huge task. And don't forget about her Grimm - related powers. Understanding and using them in a positive way is no easy feat.
Well, it could involve the character with the 'Si' (presumably self - insert) having to deal with Oz's complex backstory. Maybe they have to face the same challenges Oz did, like the fight against Salem. They might also have to handle the different relationships Oz had in the RWBY world.
Well, one way is through friendship. If the SI befriends Salem and the characters around her, they can start to influence her with positive values. For example, by sharing stories of hope and unity from their own world.
One common theme is the exploration of Penny's unique existence. Since the SI is reincarnated as Penny, there's often a focus on her robotic nature and how it affects her perception of the world. Another theme can be friendship, as Penny was always eager to make friends in RWBY. The SI might have a different take on forging relationships within the RWBY universe. Also, there could be themes related to identity. The SI has to come to terms with being Penny, who has a pre - established identity in the show.
