TRP is a post-Great War AU RWBY RP set in Mistral City and Haven Academy with no canons, no rank claims, no maidens, and no god interference. We offer a progression system and site-wide events that change the setting based on player actions.
Listed below are the NPCs that are persistent in and around Haven Academy. Each of these NPCs can be used in threads freely unless that policy is abused. Abuse can result in XP nullification for the thread(s) involved and retconning for wildly OOC acts.
Valko is pretty incompetent, so if you want him to very tiredly give you morphine for the flu or whatever that's fine. He's supposed to be an accidental menace to society.
Having the police do illegal shit falls into the realm of 'wildly OOC', though, full stop.
Combat must be done through a storyteller to prevent abuse.

Appearance: Akvo has naturally wavy hair which causes him no end of distress. His silvery-blue hair is in a perpetually messy state, which is sometimes exaggerated into a frizzy afro when Akvo's hair is hit by extreme heat. He has yellow "dead fish eyes", which are called such because they are nearly always half-lidded. He normally has his chest puffed out regardless of the wrinkled state of his maroon police uniform overcoat and unlined dark brown uniform pants with one wide black leather belt around his waist and the other across his chest. Example of uniform.
Character Overview
Officer Akvo did not want this assignment, but he has had too many use of force complaints recently and was moved to a position where it was believed that he wouldn't be able to cause any harm. After all, being surrounded by a bunch of kids much stronger than him was bound to take his ego down a few pegs... right?
At his core, Akvo is a slacker and a cynic who only joined the Mistral Police Department out of a lack of options. He failed the Haven entrance exam multiple times, and couldn't get in even when standards were at their lowest. He has no activated semblance and despite the fact that he went through police academy relies excessively on technology to get him out of situations and has a physical skill set much more suited to running away than going in and stopping conflict. He holds a resentment for the trainees of Haven and believes that the only difference between them and him is the fact that they won the genetic lottery and were randomly determined to have great semblances.
While he is quick to talk trash to trainees and show them his contempt, he will never actually engage in a fight with them and would simply report the violence to higher authorities if pressed. After all, he is but a normal human without a semblance while the trainees are walking weapons of mass destruction. If they can't control themselves and decided to throw violent temper tantrums... well, it was in the interest of the public that they got expelled for being dangerous loose cannons. If they can't handle a bit of... ahem, constructive criticism then how could they be trusted to protect everyone?
Extra Akvo means water.
Condensed Stat Block: F Weapons (Taser, Baton), F Agility, F Speed, F Marksmanship, F Taser Enhancement (Lower speed by one rank if D rank or below), F Taser Enhancement (F rank damage over the course of 2 turns when taser connects). He also carries around one dose of gravity dust and one dose of air dust, used exclusively to disengage when threatened.
Appearance: On the shorter side for a police officer, Livia is marked by her cheerful demeanor and nearly perfect posture. She wears her police uniform cleaned and pressed every day immaculately, with the clothing being immaculate at the beginning of every day. This uniform consists of a maroon overcoat and dark brown uniform pants with one wide black leather belt around her waist and the other across her chest. Example of uniform.
Character Overview
Livia is somewhat of a young rising star among the Mistral Police Force. The daughter of a well-respected lieutenant, she was posted to Haven Academy in order to practice and train with the trainees to get better herself. Guarding Haven Academy is seen as a superfluous posting, but the highly motivated bluenette was seen as a great candidate for the spot because she could take what she learned from the trainees and faculty at Haven to become much better at her job on patrol.
Unlike Akvo, Livia never wanted to be a huntress. She was born and raised in the capital, and wanted to give back to the city that had raised her by pursuing public service. She unlocked her semblance very recently and doesn't have a lot of practice with it, though it has significant potential especially in her line of work. Eager and personable, Livia has a bubbly and extroverted personality that makes at least some impression on most she meets.
Still overly formal in the newness of her position, Livia is a woman fresh out of police academy and still getting used to the position of a police officer. Despite this, she has no problem intervening to de-escalate situations and has bravery that sometimes outsizes her current capability. Her heart is in the right place, but she lacks the polish to actually do all the good in the city that she wants to. It is hoped by the higher brass that her first station in Haven will provide the opportunity to gain some of that required skill to really be an asset in the more dangerous parts of the city in a year or two.
Extra Livia means blue, Swan is a white water bird.
Condensed Stat Block: F weapons (Katana/Pistol), F Semblance (Strength/Durability Physical Boost), F Agility, F Acrobatics, F Martial Arts, F Marksmanship, F Leap. Carries around 1 dose of gravity and 1 dose of ice dust.

Appearance: Perpetually exhausted with bags under his eyes, Valko is a short and thin man with perpetual bedhead. Constantly slouches and yawns, rubbing his eyes every few seconds out of habit even when not completely exhausted.
Character Overview
Valko is a medical school student doing his internship at Haven Academy under the watchful eye of Doctor Haragitanai. He did not get this posting because he was a good student, but instead was placed in a position that was deemed almost impossible to fuck up because of Doctor Haragitanai's unique semblance. The man tries really hard, but simply doesn't have a lot of talent for memorization and tends to overwork himself to the point of sleep deprivation. While fully awake he is more or less competent, that idea of 'fully awake' is more or less a myth at this point and a sleep deprived Valko left to his own devices can do things like give laxatives instead of painkillers by accident and causes much more harm than good.
That is why he is never left to his own devices in the infirmary, and can be seen taking frequent naps in the corner when nobody is around. The very picture of good natured incompetence, his can-do attitude and willingness to go the extra mile despite his lack of skill is really the only reason he is kept on at all to do the basic grunt work in the medical department.
Haven Attack Update: Valko was fired for his actions taken in the attack and the unwitting help he and a trainee gave to the perpetrators.
Extra Valko means wolf, which evokes gray.
Condensed Stat Block: F Non-combat medical. G ranked everything else, aura not unlocked.
