The Games We Play (much-more-updated SpaceBattles.com discussion threads #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, Story only thread here) is a The Gamer/RWBY crossover fanfic by Ryuugi/rgm0005. It starts pre-series, with a pinch or two of Alternate Universe Fic..well, no, scratch that, more like a truck load of Alternate Universe Fic.After getting rejected from Signal again, Jaune Arc starts seeing strange blue screens, titles and levels appear above people's heads, and weird things begin to happen to him, as if he was in a game. Jaune realizes he has become a Gamer, with all the RPG Mechanics 'Verse shenanigans that involves. At first ecstatic about finally unlocking his Semblance, his life takes an unwanted turn when he accidentally gets himself involved with the White Fang and their struggle. Annoying as this is, little does he know that this is far from the limit of the "fun" he will encounter…There are commented out Zero-Context Examples.See also this thread for a running tally of other information gathered by readers.On 12th November 2015, Ryuugi officially announced that The Games We Play is nearing its end and that there will be a sequel, The Lies We Tell.On 31st December 2015, the final update was published for The Games We Play. Ryuugi will take an indefinite break to work on other stories before beginning The Lies We Tell.For the Magic: The Gathering fic go here and for the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fanfic go here.Spoiler warning: The Games We Play is fast-moving and heavy on cliffhangers, Wham Episodes and Lines. Reasonable effort has been made to mark spoilers, but trope names are not to be spoilered. Read on at your own risk.

Secret Identity: To quote a comment, Jaune regularly LAR Ps as the reincarnation of a mythical magical tiger-man, while in actuality he's "merely" super-consciously aping the techniques, body, and role of a reincarnated mythical magical tiger-man. One of his enemies is the host of an ultra-powerful qliphothic crystalline superweapon, who is LARPing as an terrorist, who is LARPing as an ordinary student, and he escapes her attention by personally LARPing as a qliphothic biological weapon, who is LARPing as a reincarnated mythical magical tiger-man. His oversoul LAR Ps as and gives life to various elemental forces, including himself. He's also two different people, simultaneously, who are also the same person, who are also both him.

Stop, or I Shoot Myself!: In "Breaking Down", Jaune does this. When Malkuth threatens to unleash the full power of the Grimm to wipe out mankind, Jaune in turn threatens that, should his family and friends get killed, he'll just throw himself into the biggest, strongest concentration of Grimm and die fighting. Malkuth listens because he needs Jaune alive to release him from his Can. While he's done a remarkable job of remaining lucid for the past thousands of years, he doesn't want to risk that he won't disintegrate entirely waiting the next few millennia Jaune would need to reincarnate again if he dies.

Instant Expert: One of the benefits of being a Gamer is that Jaune can consume a skill book and instantly know how to do everything within. The Skills gained usually take years if not decades to hone for anyone else.

If I Wanted You Dead...: In "Surprise Box", Jaune assures General Ironwood that if he wanted to attack, he'd have done so already. Inverted when Jaune successfully calls Malkuth's bluff, telling him that if he really wanted to Kill All Humans, he could have just unleashed the full force of the Grimm on mankind a long, long time ago.

The Worf Effect
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_178ca149
comment
The Worf Effect: When Malkuth first appears he effortlessly overpowers Jaune. Jaune himself does this to Yang, No Selling a direct hit from her and then sending her to Destination Defenestration with one Razor Wind. In "Class Introductions", Adam demonstrates the fruit of his training by easily handing the arses of the third strongest freshman team to them. In general, this tends to happen to various Grimm species that get chapter-long fights on their first encounter after Jaune levels up a bit. So far, Giant Nevermores, Goliaths, Leviathans and Humbaba have been singled out as targets for this, each getting pasted with only a token effort on Jaune's part on subsequent encounters.

Artistic License – Biology: Actually a plot point. Jaune is entirely aware that the known laws of biology shouldn't let the Grimm exist. He suspects that figuring this mystery out will bring him closer to determining where they come from.

Always Someone Better
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_19d1c1ae
comment
Always Someone Better: Adam, Blake, Penny and Weiss are well above Jaune's level at first. Perfectly demonstrated when fighting the first Giant Nevermore; Jaune lands a hundred hits and deals only 5% damage in total. Adam takes out 60% with one admittedly long-charging hit. Jaune's parents, Jacques and Isabella, are so strong that he can't even perceive their Levels for part of the story - which, given that he can see the level of anyone up to 50 levels above his own, shows how vast the difference in power is. After he beat Penny his mother spent weeks wiping the floor with him effortlessly as training, without even using her Semblance. The only time we see him spar with his father, after Jaune killed a Goliath, his father bats him through buildings without missing a beat. Raven Branwen is so dangerous that Jaune is certain she would kill him if they ever had to fight, and he fears for the life of his grandmother Jeanne, who is implied to make his parents look like chumps. Some of the most dangerous people in the story are wary of her; likely for good reason. She suppresses Isabella with little effort and Ryuugi has declared that she would kill Jacques with ease and even Conquest puppeting and enhancing him would only make it a bit more difficult. When Jaune accompanies his father on a mission he eventually winds up meeting two different teams of experienced Hunters, each of them at least 20 Levels higher than him and capable of holding the line against an army of Grimm. By "Conditions" it's been inverted as Jaune is the one who's far superior to Yang and Ruby. And he already surpassed Adam and Blake a while back. In "Increase" Jaune starts reuniting with his sisters, all of whom are much higher-levelled than him even after his gains from the previous arc. Some are even higher-levelled than their parents. Glynda has yet to appear as of "News Report", but Ryuugi has declared that she is vastly stronger than Jacques. Which... says worrying things about Cinder, considering they were matched in Volume 1 Episode 1. Indeed, Raven - Raven! is concerned about the latter's actions. In "Building", Jeanne says that she would lose a duel against Ozpin. Cinder finally shows a fraction of her true power - stopping time with a thought and growing a crown of white dust crystals. Malkuth - when he's introduced he calls Jaune 'old friend' then starts playing with him and Jacques; after Jaune flees from Jacques's soul, a process of about one second, Jacques is dead and Malkuth is in control. Basically compared to him all others on this list are little more than 'playthings'.

comment
Necessary Drawback: In "First Class", Jaune launches into a detailed explanation of the pros and cons of using Dust Eating vs Dust Weaving vs Dust ammunition. Arcana gives massive bonuses but also potentially massive disadvantagesnote Like Strength adding his Intelligence and Wisdom to his Strength, but preventing use of his purely energy-based Aura attacks and are literally highly situational because which "card" he draws depends on Jaune's situation and actions. As such, activating it at the wrong time may result in him making a bigger tradeoff than he gains. One of Jaune’s skills gives him exp gaining boost if he keeps his HP either below 1% or precisely at 1 point.

Playing with Fire: In Firefight, Jaune shows how to turn things even more on fire, he starts by turning his aura into fire, then expanding said aura in a large sphere centered on him, adds temperature by turning it blue with white on the center, to top it off, he fuses with his fire elemental to shape it like a huge version of his tiger soul that melts Grimm and ground alike.

Parents as People: A recurring theme in the story is that the characters with children have all made mistakes of one kind or another regarding their kids, and that doing so is a pretty natural thing. Jaune's parents tried their best with him, but he was still quite depressed before the story started, and his sisters all have some very good reasons to avoid home. Weiss Schnee and her family issues are still prevalent. Jaune's mother has issues with her own mother. Raven struggles with her sense of duty and her love of her family. And Jaune himself eventually becomes a father and struggles to avoid making mistakes in raising Autumn.

Chekhov's Gun: In "Choice" Jaune sends Vulturnus out to do... something. In "Timed Battle" we learn what it is: destroying robots so he can get a level-up to help him against Penny. Pandora Shells were mentioned briefly as bad, bad juju long before they showed up in "Fortress Defense". Back when Jaune first gained "the Hidden Heart", its description told him that leveling it up would provide additional, then-unspecified benefits. In "Splitting Up" we finally see one of those benefits. Jaune gained "Gorgon" some time back but found it wasn't much use. In "Cooperation" he finally found a use for it.

Aborted Arc: After the general introduction chapters Jaune quickly loses interest in hunting for additional new spellbooks, raising Luck to at least 50 after spending at least one early chapter on getting two-thirds there, deciphering the Babel literature (which should’ve been easy for his 200-300 INT), exploring the newly-unlocked Quest Arrow and Quest Objective abilities, etc. Technically, Jaune knows Babel through Metatron and unlocking the Arcana, as for the other two points, Ryuugi has stated that he never liked Luck from the start and he never thought Jaune would actually do what a quest tells him from the danger of Malkuth being behind it.

Cruel to Be Kind
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_25c7b33a
comment
Cruel to Be Kind: Jaune's mother worries about her children choosing the Hunter lifestyle, fearing that they might one day fall in battle. To counteract this, she put all of her daughters, and Jaune now that he's awakened his Semblance, through Training from Hell to ensure that they'll survive whatever Remnant can throw at them. All of her daughters have survived to this day, but they avoid visiting as much as possible. To make it even sadder, in "Reintroductions" we see that Bianca at least hated her for it, and suffered for most of her life because of what happened to her, and she refuses to consider that it might have had any part in helping make her stronger.

Mythology Gag: "I'll be lord of the battlefield and lord of the dance—though I assure you, my moves don't need much help in that regard." Adam's explanation to Jaune about why the White Fang wear masks in "First Boss" is the same as the one Blake gave in canon Volume 2, Chapter 4. "For it is in passing that we achieve immortality…"​explanation Said in canon by Pyrrha as she unlocked Jaune's Aura. Here said by Jaune as he does the same to another. The fact that Jaune has repeatedly refused to cut and run against superior forces is sadly amusing considering that his canon self was happy to "run and live" in Volume 1, Chapter 8. In "Expansions" Jaune briefly brings up landing strategies. This far into the story, he and his team's idea of landing strategies are far more impressive than what the canon teams came up with.

The World Is Just Awesome: When using Cathedral for the first time, Jaune reflects on how, as powerful and physics-bending even a high-tier Huntsman like himself is, all that pales before the energy Remnant the planet generates and manipulates naturally.

Dirty Business: Much as Jaune knows that preying on fears is the only way he can beat Weiss, he hates himself for having to use this method. In Second Interlude Ironwood says that he would prefer to not have to rely on faunus slavery-in-practice, but there is too much opposition to any attempts he could make to change the system.

Awesome, but Impractical
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_2bdae2ae
comment
Awesome, but Impractical: Both Played Straight and Subverted. The various Supernatural Martial Arts of Remnant's past are very powerful, but the costs like long Training from Hell time or being Cast from Hit Points make them too difficult to use for most people, especially with Dust-powered weapons providing a much easier alternative. For Jaune, though, it's merely an immediate cost and his Gamer's Mind and Body nullify any further adverse effects. The official explanation for why Jaune hadn't gotten an earth elemental in time for the Conquest arc is that, for all the power it might have, it would be cost-intensive even for him. He gets around to contracting one in "Knowledge". Jaune rarely used his Dimensional because in a serious fight it could burn through as many as several hundred Dust crystals.

Going Cosmic: The story starts off with Jaune working with the White Fang for their goal of faunus liberation, as well as doing battle with the Grimm. Eventually it moves on to ask questions about the nature of existence, reality and souls, questions that, if answered, might just also let Jaune answer the question, "How do I defeat The Man Behind the Man?" Foreshadowed extensively by all the mythology and religion references.

Fantastic Nuke: In "Hidden Enemies" Jaune discusses "Astrals", the result of Dust taken to its most destructive extremes. The two types he mentions are nuclear and space-manipulating. In "Trial Run", Jaune gives a glimpse of Brahmastra, which is basically a Magic Nuke, with a decay status and lingering area of effect.

Glass Cannon: The White Tiger style is this - massive boosts to offence and mobility, but no buffs to defence. It left practitioners capable of dealing lots of damage, but being no tougher than an ordinary human. This was only slightly mitigated by the later development of the White Tiger's Hide, and is exacerbated by the Cast from Hit Points nature of the style's two strongest skills. As a result, while a master of the style is a tiger, tiger burning bright, he will not last the night. Jaune gets around this problem by picking up other defensive skills.

Create Your Own Villain: In "Reminiscence" we learn that Keter was partly responsible for creating the creatures of Grimm. In "Tenth Interlude - Metatron" we get the full rundown: He was trying to Malkuth with the Past-Life Memories of the souls that were ripped apart to create the latter by offloading them into the Grimm using the Qlippoth. Unfortunately, this made Malkuth into The Empath, but only for negative emotions, of which there were so many that it became physically painful. After centuries of trying and failing to relieve it, Malkuth became convinced that the only way was to kill all mankind. Keter refused, and thus the brothers went to war.

Know When to Fold Them: In this post, Ryuugi explains that the Hunters who live the longest are the ones who know when a battle is unwinnable and need to retreat rather than throw their lives away in a Senseless Sacrifice of a Last Stand. It also deconstructs the idea by showing just what kind of cold, calculating bastard you'd have to be (and Jaune's maternal granny is far from a saint) to throw present lives under the bus for the sake of living to fight another day. Notably, when such a situation comes up, Jaune refuses to cut his losses and run.

Boring, but Practical: The final skill in Bai Hu's tree, White Tiger of the West, doesn't have much flash to it. It only improves the effects of the other White Tiger skills, lets Jaune use them without additional cost, and gives him a Fighting Spirit. Even directly referenced in the chapter he learns it, in words reminiscent of Bruce Lee's famous "I fear the man who has practised one kick 10,000 times":

Degraded Boss: The first Giant Nevermore Jaune fought was a massive endeavour requiring a Bullhead and Adam to do the heavy lifting. By the time "Horde" comes around, he can take one down by himself. When he fights a Goliath starting in "Target Acquired" he takes down three as a side note to the Flunky Boss in question, and does so without even needing to jump down its throat in order to Attack Its Weak Point. When Adam, Jaune, and Gou fight a second Leviathan in "Try Again", they have a much easier time of it.

Elemental Embodiment: Jaune's elementals are this, at lower levels they appear almost like Anthropomorphic Personification, but when reach True Elementals they can be categorized as Titans: Crocea Mors, his first elemental, representing Metal, summoned originally into his blade&shield, carries the pair's name, shows as a reflection on metal surfaces.

Tranquil Fury: Malkuth's state at the end of "Breaking Down". His voice is described as "almost frighteningly empty. It wasn’t angry, wasn’t loud—it was soft, distant, and entirely devoid of anything human."

Jaune himself, as noted both In-Universe and out, has had many chances to just let things go, but he keeps pushing on nevertheless. Being infected by Grimm bacteria? Being forced to kill his family friends? Fighting time itself? Being turned into a Grimm? No!

Combat Pragmatist: Jaune, who Had to Be Sharp seeing as he's so often pitted against far stronger foes who would destroy him utterly if he tried to fight fair. He goes for weak points, turns out the lights while using equipment that lets him see in the dark, uses his foes' fear against them, uses the Hunters' refusal to fire upon a city to his advantage, fires into the Grimm to use them as distractions, abuses Dust crystals to keep himself healed and buffed and lets his elementals distract and hurt his foes.

Reincarnation: At least two documented examples, with several more suspected, though as Ryuugi explains, it can be complicated. Jaune/Keter/Metatron has a huge advantage because of the unique nature of his soul, to the point that had it went completely right, his previous life would have gone beyond Past-Life Memories and just basically taken over wholesale to continue where he had left off the first time around. For most others:

Required Secondary Powers
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_5b6e57e
comment
Required Secondary Powers: Acceleration is Time Mastery applied only to Jaune, but not to his Elementals or allies, which means he can't use them as effectively while he's sped up. Also, spending all that time while dilated means he's physically older than the calendar would suggest. Time Stop halts his mana regeneration because time's not moving. Tenne's ability to guide projectiles using his eyesight is disrupted when he blinks, and training and experience only go so far in trying to counteract this natural tendency. When Conquest infects him, he gains many more eyes, and unblinking Grimm ones at that, making him much more effective. In "Homecoming", we see how many things Jaune has to do in order to be stealthy. It's not enough to use Delusory to bend light and hide himself visually - he needs to control air to prevent sound leaking or unwanted wind motion, control heat to prevent the air from heating from friction as he moves at Super-Speed, and harden the ground to prevent it cracking under his Super Strong footfalls. Some of the Skills Jaune learns explicitly don't provide their user with any protection should they backfire on him. In "Examination" Jaune notes that Aura doesn't increase mass or provide additional anchoring. In high-level combat, even if an attack doesn't deal enough damage to noticeably deplete Aura reserves, it's still possible to have someone Blown Across the Room. Grabbing something while moving at Super-Speed can cause whiplash. Jaune actually weaponises this by grabbing Grimm and letting physics take over.

Raven Branwen is so dangerous that Jaune is certain she would kill him if they ever had to fight, and he fears for the life of his grandmother Jeanne, who is implied to make his parents look like chumps. Some of the most dangerous people in the story are wary of her; likely for good reason. She suppresses Isabella with little effort and Ryuugi has declared that she would kill Jacques with ease and even Conquest puppeting and enhancing him would only make it a bit more difficult.

 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_61c683d2
comment
We Have Reserves: The Grimm have always been said to benefit from this, but "Homeward" really drives it home — Jaune spends a night turning a ten kilometre sphere into an "Instant Death" Radius, and come daybreak the Grimm are still pouring bodies into the breach like they were the Imperial Guard. Same can be said about the substance that Grimms summon from another dimension to heal themselves.

Bavarian Fire Drill: Jaune gets on the Schnee Dust Company airship by wearing the garb and acting as though he belongs. Jaune was never really a part of The White Fang, but acting in charge, getting things done, and simply acting confident ended with him in charge of the whole organization, it does help that Raven's on his side.

Cosmic Horror Story: There are strong hints that the Grimm aren't just preying on mankind out of need or For the Evulz, but rather that there is some kind of inscrutable intelligence, maybe an Eldritch Abomination or God of Evil, behind their actions. Pretty much confirmed in "The Final Round".

Idiot Ball: Improving the WIS stat is supposed to make Jaune choose more optimal and advantageous solutions but often he does not consider them or at least even explain why they won't work (e.g. looking for more spellbooks across the world; looking for more information on Babel, mining dust for spam-killing high level Grimm; concentrating on levelling up instead of levelling skills, since each 50 stat points effectively doubles his power etc). Cinder doesn’t sever her connection to a house that ties her to her history.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech/You Are Better Than You Think You Are: Jaune uses both simultaneously to try to convince Penny that they shouldn't fight and how they both care about doing the right thing. In "Results" he uses this to attempt to convince Penny that the fight is over. Once the fight is over he has a heart to heart with her, they end the conversation on good terms. Conquest, full of himself as he is, dishes the former out like candy at Halloween, trying to break Jaune.

 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_7eb73553
comment
Bullying a Dragon: Yang in "Conditions". Did you really think antagonizing a guy who shrugged off a direct hit from you was a good idea? From someone less restrained than Jaune, it would have ended poorly. Jaune himself often chooses this as a tactic against much more powerful opponents to bluff his way through and seem more powerful then he issuch as in his first meeting with Raven.

Attack Its Weak Point: The weaker Grimm can be killed easier if specific attack patterns are chosen against them. Some of the stronger monsters have to be killed in a specific manner if you don’t want to only make things worse.

Kung Fu-Proof Mook: For given values of 'mook'. The Aura of others needs to be overcome before most effects can be applied to them, which is why many moves that can be directly lethal against Grimm or robots, like warping the metal they're made of into uselessness, can't be used against humans.

Wham Episode
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_8e20979

Wham Episode: In "Escape" Jaune accidentally awakens the legendary mountain-sized Grimm Ziz. In "Reunion" Jaune sees off the Faunus refugees and catches up with Adam and Blake, after which he heads home and has a reunion with his parents... only to discover that his father had asked one of his friends to keep an eye on him, with the implication (confirmed shortly afterwards) being that it's Ozpin. "Ties": Jaune has received a quest to help the White Fang take power in Mistral, and has revealed his identity as Jian Bing to his grandmother, who was Dumb Struck by the mention of Raven. In "Hacking" Jaune and Raven's information theft at the Schnee Dust Company leads to the discovery that the Dust deposits the Four Kingdoms rely on to hold back the Grimm are starting to run out, and will be depleted within Jaune's lifetime. "Fortress Defense". Another super-Grimm appears, one strong enough to shatter Jaune's barriers like they were eggshells, and that's before the Pandora Shell shows up. "Defeat" directly follows the above and things go From Bad to Worse. Jaune's mother pushed herself to the edge of death trying to protect him, and would have actually died if not for his Healing Hands, and we learn just what the Pandora Shells do when his now-infected father appears. "Last Minute". Jaune has become... a sapient Grimm? "The Final Round". Jaune and Jacques defeat Conquest, only to find the source of the Grimm. He's as much of a Jerkass as his minion, but even stronger - Jaune can barely resist him and Jacques has to pull a Heroic Sacrifice to allow Jaune to Bring News Back - and then Jaune has to decapitate (the possessed body of) his own father in order to temporarily halt the bad guy. "Raiding". Summer Rose may still be alive and another carrier of the Red Rider. "Lighting". Jaune summons a Light Elemental and starts to receive a lot of very vital information. "Retort". Jaune almost defeats Gilgamesh, only to once again cause Malkuth to manifest. "Breaking Down". Jaune and Malkuth establish a ceasefire. "Tenth Interlude - Metatron". We learn, at last, how it all began.

Death or Glory Attack: One of the buffs Jaune picks up is Adamant Skin, which greatly improves a user's defence but, if they are not strong enough, will leave them trapped in their own skin. Ohr Ein Sof is an attack that goes beyond physical damage and can unmake the target back into Light, but can and apparently has also unraveled some of its past users into Light themselves.

In "Homecoming", we see how many things Jaune has to do in order to be stealthy. It's not enough to use Delusory to bend light and hide himself visually - he needs to control air to prevent sound leaking or unwanted wind motion, control heat to prevent the air from heating from friction as he moves at Super-Speed, and harden the ground to prevent it cracking under his Super Strong footfalls.

In general, this tends to happen to various Grimm species that get chapter-long fights on their first encounter after Jaune levels up a bit. So far, Giant Nevermores, Goliaths, Leviathans and Humbaba have been singled out as targets for this, each getting pasted with only a token effort on Jaune's part on subsequent encounters.

Astral Projection: The aptly-named Projection Skill lets Jaune do this. In "Reaction Time" he uses it to merge with his Fighting Spirit and continue fighting even after Conquest turns his body into a Pandora Shell.

Kill It with Fire: Flame is the only thing that can reliably purge Pandora Shell bacteria. Jaune also uses flames to kill a Humbaba by himself, he uses enough heat to make the almost Mythological Grimm melt away.

Foreshadowing
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_9d12bbc1

Foreshadowing: Metric tonnes of the stuff. Everything from the names of Jaune's Elementals to the nature of his Semblance foreshadows something, some of which took over a year of daily updates to even come to pass. Back in "Party System" Jaune encountered an Alpha Beowolf that acted oddly. It took many chapters but in "The Final Round" we learn why. Why does Autumn's favoured form have way more eyes and mouths than is natural? For a long time, the only way she could sense was via Aura, meaning she was constantly looking at Jaune's soul. As we later learn, she was just reflecting the appearance of Jaune's soul. Talking about "Party System", the Quest Jaune got was called "What Lies Beneath". And what lies at the bottom of the Sephirot? Malkuth. When Malkuth first appeared he took on the appearance of Jaune. We later learn that he and Jaune's soul are brothers. For much of the story, Jaune struggled to define his own identity, instead taking on roles as demanded by those around him. This turns out to be a reflection of his original incarnation's powers. Back in "Sleepless", Jaune remarked, “Two of me? The world wouldn’t be able to take it." Guess what comes to pass in "Splitting Up". Back in "Sea Level", Jaune wondered about not being consumed by Lux Aeterna like his illusions were. Guess what the potential drawback of Lux Aeterna's prestige skill, Ohr Ein Sof, is?

 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_9eb11fac

Weak, but Skilled: Seems like a staple of the story. Jaune is always up against enemies who are much stronger than he is, and if he currently isn't that just means the next one's going to sucker punch him all the harder. Also literally as he usually has lots more Skills but poorer stats than his foes.

In "Reunion" Jaune sees off the Faunus refugees and catches up with Adam and Blake, after which he heads home and has a reunion with his parents... only to discover that his father had asked one of his friends to keep an eye on him, with the implication (confirmed shortly afterwards) being that it's Ozpin.

Protagonist Journey to Villain: Jaune appeared to be headed this way during the White Whale arc. First he stole books from a library to learn Skills. Second his errand boy quest quickly devolved into him becoming a get away driver when he first meets the White Fang. And third when he's planning to steal an airship from the Schnee Dust Company, he plays on Weiss's fears because he knows he'll lose in a fair fight, momentarily takes her hostage after incapacitating her in the fight and he leaves behind friends he wanted to save. Understandably he's become sickened by his actions. Ultimately didn't come to pass.

In "Examination" Jaune notes that Aura doesn't increase mass or provide additional anchoring. In high-level combat, even if an attack doesn't deal enough damage to noticeably deplete Aura reserves, it's still possible to have someone Blown Across the Room.

Infinity +1 Sword: White Dust is the rarest, most potent type of Dust. It is so rare that Raven has only managed to forge three blades' worth of the stuff despite her decades as a Huntress. While its full potential remains unrevealed, what glimpses we seenote Even the tiny amount Jaune had access to in the Conquest fight was enough to let him go relativistic. Using it let Raven do Aura-ignoring Portal Cuts and dispel black holes. suggest it more than lives up to the hype. Jaune and Ozpin consider a certain character's ready access to large quantities of it to be more dangerous than Time Mastery.

Super-Senses: In "Pets", by raising his base INT above 100, Jaune gains Clairvoyance, which not only boosts his existing senses but also allows him to sense in ways that normal humans can't, such as seeing in the full electromagnetic spectrum down to the cellular level. For example, this allows him to detect that Raven is a portal-creator even though she has no obvious tell.

Sheathe Your Sword: Invoked by Jaune in his spar with Finn.

After a while of this, when Jaune deliberately does not attack him as he's coming out of a teleport, he misses a beat. Things go downhill for him rapidly.

Only I Can Kill Him: Jaune’s Plot Armor is partially explained through his arch-nemesis forbidding his minions to kill him. Similar plot devices are applied first to "some" of Jaune’s allies (when he manages to convince one of the Riders to not kill them while playing a Sheep in Wolf's Clothing), then to "all" of them (when he negotiates a temporary cease-fire with Malkuth).

Gamer's Mind prevents almost all negative mental conditions, including fear and panic, from affecting Jaune. Similarly, Gamer's Body reduces everything to either HP damage or status effects, but leaves him unimpeded by little things like dismemberment. Word of advice: Do not bring up the subject of Gamer's Mind and what it can and can't do in the latest threads. It's been discussed to death, and is every current poster's Berserk Button. The author eventually waded in to explicitly state that Gamer's Mind does not remove Jaune's emotions, only prevent him from being compromised by them.

Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Ohr Ein Sof weaponises this. It's not an attack in the traditional sense so much as dragging both user and target up from the material realm, into a plane where material things, the body, the mind, even ideas and concepts cease to be, leaving behind only the purest expression of their souls and selves. For those without a sufficiently strong self-identity, the process can be very unpleasant. When pulled up into the Truth, one might just discover that the Truth will set you free... from your existence.

Character Level/Power Levels: One of the basic features of Jaune's Semblance let him achieve this, providing a steady development of his powers. Skills and Stats can be developed separately, though. Played with for other people, as their levels are more of a rationalization of their power and how they use it rather than raw capability - for one, Bianca's displayed level is actually below that of her true potential because she holds herself back out of fear of the massive collateral damage potential.

Final Boss Preview: At the end of the Conquest arc, just when Jaune thinks victory is within reach, Malkuth shows up and shows him that he's got a long way to go. When Jaune accidentally pushes Cinder a bit too far, she reveals that she's the host for Famine and far more than he can handle. As difficult as the fight with Malkuth controlling Gilgamesh's body is, it isn't even him at full power. Talking to Jeanne, Jaune discovers Ozpin singlehandedly defeated the Royal guard, the four Witches, and the Queen in the battle to retake Vale, using insanely versatile time fields.

Shout-Out: In "Treasure" Cynosarges plays a game that involves shooting Nevermore at buildings. "I'm a Hunter, like my father and his father before him". "In case you can't tell by the wrinkles, I invented the art of not dying and then I perfected it. In "Clubs", Jaune recalls that there used to be a teleporter who left skins filled with dust behind and was deduced to be destroying one body at the origin and creating another at the destination. "Gotta go fast, huh?" One of the ways Adam's improved Semblance can be used, wrapping energy around a blade to enhance his strikes instead of using that energy directly as an attack, brings to mind a similar breakthrough made by a certain Strawberry. There're also some references to the Final Fantasy series. The Bane of the Prometheans skill is pretty much the Wraith's Abduction from Evolve. In "Game Over", AI!Keter cribs one of Monty's lines.

Unspoken Plan Guarantee: Progressively worsens with story’s progression. Jaune can often spend whole chapters on useless generic descriptions or reminders about his current situation without mentioning any specific options for winning the oncoming conflict or battle. Same starts happening with newly-acquired or upgraded skills and items: the reader has no idea what they do until the moment they are first used to salvage a situation.

Serial Escalation: The whole fic can probably be summed up in two questions. 1) What crazy powerful ability is Jaune going to gain next? 2) What even more crazy powerful foe is going to show up and prove that Jaune still has a long way to go? How many simultaneous Lux Aeternae is Jaune going to fire this time, and how much more is it going to bend physics over a barrel than the last time?

What the Hell, Hero?: Jaune's grandmother gives him such a speech in "Alarm", though it plays with the idea — instead of condemning him for wrongdoing, it's more of a Spec Ops: The Line-style "you should have just walked away rather than insisting on being a hero".

Square-Cube Law: The more powerful types of Grimm blatantly ignore this, and Jaune suspects that figuring out how they do so will help him in his quest to stop them permanently.

Training from Hell
 The Games We Play (The Gamer/RWBY) (Fanfic) / int_d66cd0e6
comment
Training from Hell: How Jaune's mother trains him in "Shift". Deconstructed, as it's mentioned that without his Semblance Jaune wouldn't benefit from this type of training as much as he does, and that a normal person training like that would suffer mentally and physically. In fact, it's implied, and eventually confirmed, that their mother's training is the reason that Jaune's sisters avoid visiting home as much as possible, having been traumatized by her brutal methods.

Put Them All Out of My Misery: After hundreds of years of experiencing pain from humanity's negative emotions and with nothing the other Archangels did able to alleviate it, Malkuth wanted to exterminate humanity so that he didn't have to suffer any longer. Keter refused to go along with it and thus it was on.

Jaune himself, as noted both In-Universe and out, has had many chances to just let things go, but he keeps pushing on nevertheless. Being infected by Grimm bacteria? Being forced to kill his family friends? Fighting time itself? Being turned into a Grimm? No!

Contagious Powers/Super-Empowering: The game mechanics of Jaune’s semblance allows his party members to gain levels and stat points with them, which they can then reallocate freely like he does. That means that even Hunters that have hit their peak like Raven can grow by being near him, and even things that can't normally be easily trained like intelligence or wisdom can be directly improved. Similarly he’s able to create high-level hunters from regular animals and plants.

One character (Raven) pulled a Screw This, I'm Outta Here on her bosses because they held such attitudes. The one major character who does subscribe to such is not shown very sympathetically.

By the time they were whittled down to Keter and Malkuth, all the other Archangels were dead and much of humanity with them.

Improving the WIS stat is supposed to make Jaune choose more optimal and advantageous solutions but often he does not consider them or at least even explain why they won't work (e.g. looking for more spellbooks across the world; looking for more information on Babel, mining dust for spam-killing high level Grimm; concentrating on levelling up instead of levelling skills, since each 50 stat points effectively doubles his power etc).

Mix-and-Match Critters: Leviathans have heads not quite like crocodiles or sharks, but their teeth are reminiscent of both, and their long, serpentine bodies bear a wide variety of limbs - crocodile legs, tentacles, 'pincers and claws and other such things'. Hydra bodies change to deal with the threats they face, meaning they can look very weird. The one Jaune starts fighting in "Unlocked Area" has a snakelike head, a dragonlike one, one like a wolf's, one somewhere between a spider's and an ant's, and who knows what else. Humbabae have the chest of a man, lionlike arms, ravenlike legs, a tail like a two-headed snake, and a head made of a mass of tangled "strings" with a pair of horns.

Shown Their Work: Ryuugi puts a lot of work into coming up with appropriate names and terms from myth and religion. While he doesn’t mention all the stats for the underlying game mechanics, those that he does usually don’t contradict with what had been revealed in previous chapters (mana capacity, for instance, or mana regeneration rate).
