Count should probably explain what the ICE Dragon project is. Because the the ICE Dragon unit is key to understanding my Cyber Whitley concept, the AU, and all of the characters and places that I may introduce.
My principal sources of inspiration (pronounced: the shit that I am ripping off and tossing into a blender) here are Cyberpunk and Metal Gear, but there will be secondary references to Killzone, Halo, Helldivers, and maybe Ace Combat.
To recap, Cyber-Whitley is Count's attempt at exploring a Whitley that is forced to get his hands dirty. A White Fang rocket attack on a Schnee limousine leaves Whitley as little more than burnt burger meat. Jacques (pronounced: Jack-Ass) Schnee decides that he doesn't feel like paying for his son's prosthetics. This takes place around White Trailer (so on Weiss' farewell tour) so she's still the front runner for company heir. Jacques makes some very unguarded remarks about what will happen to the army's Dust supply if they don't eat the cost. (The reason that the Security Directorate doesn't beat the shit out of him is that the Council could always use an excuse to hamstring Ironwood, and Jacques' recklessness - though catalogued for later - will not be acted upon, and somebody very high up runs interference for him.)
To that end, the 3% of Whitley's body that isn't charcoal is given into the care of Lieutenant General Henryk Amzel, commander of the Advanced Project Research Army Division, or APRAD, currently designated as the 9th Division for administrative purposes.
Amzel - being an Edward Richtofen expy - is a deranged maniac who seems to be a whole bunch of stereotypes about Solitan scientists rolled into one. He's a Lieutenant General, and somehow he has his medical doctorate (he actually used to serve as a medical officer in the airborne troops before transferring to the R&D Corps to escape a scandal), as well as doctorates, in electrical engineering and physics. His weapon of choice is a heavy, thick folding saw-toothed cleaver that in his hand looks more like a tool to reprimand his test subjects than a weapon to kill things that fight back - although he is surprisingly able to do both. Of course, even his knowledge has its gaps. To that end, the Chairwoman of a company considered reliable enough by the state was brought in, in the way that military contractor companies and their designers are. Siarka Stark, Chairwoman and Chief Designer of Stark Arms, has been brought on and told to make Amzel's vision happen. She's the pragmatist to Amzel's visionary, and the reason why the ICE Dragon system is so rugged and durable. She's also willing to go along with Amzel from time to time, being a bit of a mad scientist herself. Not nearly to Amzel's extent, but all of the traits are there. Her philosophy on design is best shown in her products, such as the SkA-52. A high capacity, compact, high rate of fire, modular, multi-caliber rifle that continues to perform reliably whether the atmosphere is choked with spores, ash, sand, or snow.
Where Amzel wants to replace the ICE Dragon's MCFC reactor core with one that runs on heat captured by the decay of ultra-heavy metals (which if mixed with Gravity Dust, Amzel believes would generate the means for the people of Remnant to alter the fabric of reality, thankfully, few people take his ravings too seriously on this subject), Siarka is more the type to talk him into equipping the Dragon with novel systems and his own spin on technologies already emerging.
The representative of the State is the Overseer, Kirk Lowenhardt, a computer scientist given override authority to make sure that Amzel isn't overspending and Stark is not overbilling. However, if Lowenhardt likes to run roughshod over any project that he is given command of and he has an uncanny skill for turning people against each other. He'll get a floundering project to meet its goals, usually on time. But his idea of testing often leaves everybody else involved wanting to kill each other, and him. He's not one of Salem's but you would be forgiven for thinking he was.
Now that we have the players, we can get to the project itself.
The Infantry Cybernetic Exoframe has gone through a few models and iterations thus far, and multiple iterations have already grown out of it. Starting from the base ICE Dragon unit, the ICE Dragon alpha. Image for reference. It is easier to show what I am driving at than to write a whole paragraph or three describing it.
It would look something like this. I'd change the color scheme to something more Atlas Army standard of course, But you've got everything you need. Except the jaw would be distinctly less human, it serves as the housing for the radar. The visor is not two panels like MGR Raiden or what Whitley's visor will be upgraded to in subsequent iterations. Instead, a second set of eyes with compound cameras swing over the eyes in his skull, the modules synchronize, and Whitley goes from merely seeing in higher resolution, for greater distances, and so on, to getting the AR live feed that lets him see in visible light, infrared, thermal, and everything else all at once. The color-distorted face plate in this iteration is more a ballistic shield for his sensitive bits than evertything else, but it is darkly tinted enough that you can't pick out his features looking at him straight on. I didn't include any hair on mine because I was unsure of how that would effect the skull housing mounted sonar array.
Developed concurrently was a smaller, more discreet, lower profile body intended for day-to-day use. This body contains many of the sensory packages of the larger models, and similar speed, but inferior strength (as only so many CNT fiber muscles can be fit into a Whitley-sized body) and far less armor (because he's 5'3" and not 8'1"). In fact, the only tip-offs in this form come from metal detectors, the internal lighting of his eyes, and the fact that even in this body, he weighs about 130 kilos. Basically, he's like 9S wearing a white uniform instead of a black one. Interestingly, Whitley Schnee and 9S are the same height. Although I think in this body, Ruby would definitely be more into it if he went with a more 9S hairstyle.
The ICE Dragon beta, developed from the ICE Dragon alpha's failure in test runs against an actual Specialist Officer. Here's the eight foot tall abomination that I depict Winter as fighting in my snippet, but now I realize I want to be Amzel and Siarka's answer to Whitley's loss.
This is a turnaround of Adam Smasher in Cyberpunk 2077, seen here wearing his custom IEC Dragoon frame. The Dragoon is where I got the Dragon's name, specs, and most of its abilities and on board weapons. I basically added an extra missile pod, swapped Adam's dual .50 BMG pop-up auto-pistols (which he can replace with a pair of AGLs on the tabletop) in his wrists for 12.7x55s in Whitley's, (but don't worry, I have a post-Vytal Festival upgrade idea). Kept the sensory booms that stick out of the sides of the head on the factory-issue Dragoons, (because Blake raging at Whitley for racism or cultural appropriation or some similar contrived horseshit because he's got two antennae sticking out of his head sounded funny to me), and added an MGR Raiden ballistic visor.
By the time the beta version rolled out, Amzel and Stark had scrapped the eyes-with-layover design completely, and just put the high power compound optic into Cyber-Whitley's skull casing directly.
There's a picture floating around of how to differentiate the Schnees by appearance, Winter with Black hair, Whitley with his father's eyes and jaw, Weiss looking like a carbon copy of her mother... I imagine seeing Whitley, eight feet tall though he is, with only the features that he inherited from his mother, even if it is artificial skin over armor, would give Weiss and Winter quite a start.
The only other aspect of note is my ICE Dragon's High Mobility Feet. They're like Raiden's high heel-looking configuration, with a pair of retractable spikes (such as on Metal Gear Rex) sticking out from the shins at both sides of the foot. This enables the ICE Dragon to functionally have the knockdown resistance of Elm's Semblance without the downsides, and if not run up sheer ice/rock walls, then walk up them at a good speed with his weapons free.
Editor von BarnOwl here, another thing about the High Mobility Feet and another reason why I specifically went with Raiden's high heel thing, is so Whitley can wield his weapons with his feet, much like Raiden.
So, onto the weapons themselves.
As Cyber Whitley is basically 70% Adam Smasher and 30% Raiden when he isn't in his 9S frame, his primary weapons is basically all of Adam's Cyberpunk 2020 weapons put together into one mechashift abomination. This is Hagelsturm - German for Hailstorm.
Behold the Tsunami Arms Helix, a gatling auto-shotgun with a fire rate comparable to an MG42. However, that's not Adam's only shotgun, and it is only a 10-gauger. He has a 4-gauge shotgun that can mount a heat ray, AGL, flamethrower, or rocket launcher like a rifle mounts a grenade launcher. I just sort of ran with this concept and bulked up Hagelsturm to 4 gauge and gave it an outboard facing side mount in my head, like Scorch's GL, but on the right side, as opposed to the left.
As for what it transforms into, a rocket hammer. Like the Grav Hammer in Halo, like the rocket hammer in Alita, like Adam's hyper hammer that I do not think he has in 2077, and like Elm's too I think. But I went and made Whitley's unique. Because I have not forgotten about Metal Gear, and because there are probably a lot of moving parts in the motor that drives the spinning shotgun, this is the head that I came up with. The spinning, grinding effect, I think probably chews through Aura.
His sidearm, Panzerstecher - German for Armor Piercer, is an Ikakalaka designed not dissimilarly to the Youtuber Skallagrim's functional Ikakalaka. Which is just Armor Slayer from Fire Emblem. But because Metal Gear cyborg, and cyborgs generally, it is also an HF sword.
And it transforms into an anti-material pistol like this
At 16.9 inches/ 43 cm long and 5.44 kilos, it is a big boy. Which is fitting, because you need a lot of mass not just to manage recoil (which isn't much of a problem for machines) to get all of the metal that can get up to the size, and hold up to the high frequency oscillations of its sword form. Chambered in the Atlas equivalent of 50 BMG, initially, but because Whiter Rose is a thing, Whitley will be designing a personal, and absolutely massive cartridge to wow Ruby by the time she sees him again in the Atlas Arc (I settled on a 230 to 240 gram 17.8x115, so muzzle energy comparable to a 25x137 or a 30x173 AP round depending on what velocity I settle on. The gun itself will be properly elongated so its sword-form is a proper two-hander, and I will sci-fi my way to a muzzle velocity). He's got the body of a killing machine but the brain of a teenager, and he's lucky that Ruby's idea of either the perfect boyfriend, or male beauty standards, or both, probably does specifically call for multiple large caliber pop-out weapons.
One last thing. One of the many benefits of being a cyborg is that you can rotate and vibrate every joint at high speed. In Battle Angel Alita this gave us Panzer Kunst (German: Armored Arts) which went on to inspire Cyberpunk's Panzerfaust (Armor Fist). And they work the same way. You need to be a fullborg to do it. You spin to build momentum while simultaneously vibrating to channel vibrations and ignore armor (and in Whitley's case, deplete Aura).
One last thing. The final development of the project, the one I haven't touched on yet, because this is just a half-formed idea.
Now with what has already been set out, what with what has been written here with the likes of General Hardy, the 1k society, the planned war with Menagerie and possibly other places, and Remnant plunging back into conflict, I wondered, how would Amzel and Siarka future-proof their program. Simple. Build a plug-in.
In Cyberpunk there are things called ACPAs - Assisted Combat Personal Armor, or simply power armor. It is a bigger mech (3-5 meters, think kind of like a Knightmare Frame in Code Geass) that you have a character pilot. One of which is the DaiOni, which because of its wiring, lack of life support, and ultra-intense sensory package and everything else, can only be piloted by a fullborg.
So I've kind of come up with the ICE Dragon APC (Amphibious Powered Cavalry) Unit.
You plug an ICE Dragon (either Whitley in the prototype/test bed, or some other very wounded Atlas soldier that has undergone full conversion once the ICE Dragon - Serial hits full production) into a larger walker (maybe a 4 meter class, maybe a 20 meter class), and send him on his merry way. I'm imagining a sort of squadron of heavily armed walkers purpose-built to kill Hunters-level opponents and things like themselves acting as the spearhead of Atlas' military interventions.
I hope this sheds a little light on the vision that I saw in the absolute trainwreck previous, and sets up so I can kind of start cranking out more with this idea.
My principal sources of inspiration (pronounced: the shit that I am ripping off and tossing into a blender) here are Cyberpunk and Metal Gear, but there will be secondary references to Killzone, Halo, Helldivers, and maybe Ace Combat.
To recap, Cyber-Whitley is Count's attempt at exploring a Whitley that is forced to get his hands dirty. A White Fang rocket attack on a Schnee limousine leaves Whitley as little more than burnt burger meat. Jacques (pronounced: Jack-Ass) Schnee decides that he doesn't feel like paying for his son's prosthetics. This takes place around White Trailer (so on Weiss' farewell tour) so she's still the front runner for company heir. Jacques makes some very unguarded remarks about what will happen to the army's Dust supply if they don't eat the cost. (The reason that the Security Directorate doesn't beat the shit out of him is that the Council could always use an excuse to hamstring Ironwood, and Jacques' recklessness - though catalogued for later - will not be acted upon, and somebody very high up runs interference for him.)
To that end, the 3% of Whitley's body that isn't charcoal is given into the care of Lieutenant General Henryk Amzel, commander of the Advanced Project Research Army Division, or APRAD, currently designated as the 9th Division for administrative purposes.
Amzel - being an Edward Richtofen expy - is a deranged maniac who seems to be a whole bunch of stereotypes about Solitan scientists rolled into one. He's a Lieutenant General, and somehow he has his medical doctorate (he actually used to serve as a medical officer in the airborne troops before transferring to the R&D Corps to escape a scandal), as well as doctorates, in electrical engineering and physics. His weapon of choice is a heavy, thick folding saw-toothed cleaver that in his hand looks more like a tool to reprimand his test subjects than a weapon to kill things that fight back - although he is surprisingly able to do both. Of course, even his knowledge has its gaps.

This Gives me a Dark Idea That i think Canon missed out on, Ruby literally just after the Hound and realizing what happened to Summer. Goes to the 1 person that would keep a promise. Jaune agrees that if it looks like she will be captured to kill her
Adding to her fake out against Neo and her Falling being half a relief to her
Team RWBY after the docks
Ruby Core
War of the Roses - Weiss Ruby Jaune
Weiss Still the Jobber of RWBY
Barely Street Tier

More Obscure Jaune Knowledge
Blake is exposed
I Just want ANYONE to say this
If V9 RWBY were Spirits to AJT RWBY how fast til they want to learn to punch a ghost

Got this fun little bit stuck in my head.
Adam: any last words before I kill you?
Yang: why are your horns black?
Adam:....what?
Yang: why are they black? I mean bull horns are usually bone colored right? And even if they did have some black it wouldn't be completely solid like that.
Adam:....
Yang: oh my God do you paint your horns?
Adam: No!
Yang: you totally do!
Adam: shut up!
Yang: but why? I mean the sheer amount of nail polish and time that has to take.
Adam: the white didn't fit my color scheme.
Yang: oh but the Grimm mask is ok.
Adam:....

A few prompts for October and Halloween since it's approaching:
-Jaune is tasked with creating a Haunted House for Beacon's Halloween Festival and Ruby's birthday. Everyone thinks it will be lame but Jaune's got a trick or two up his sleeves...
-Isabel throws out the Big Book of Things You're Not Supposed to Do as a Doctor to bring Pyrrha back from the dead as FRANKEN-PYRRHA!
-A Dragonslayer Themed Spooky Idea: Jaune and Yang get stuck in a magic movie reel as the teenaged couple that gets killed by the slasher at the start and so try to stay alive.
-Ren already faced his worst fears: Seeing everyone he loved die to the Nucklavee. But he does have one fear he hasn't fully dealt with... Because it's very silly and embarassing. Yes, the poor guy has a fear of clowns.
-Yang is haunted by a ghost that resembles Summer. It's tormenting her. It's up to her friends to help her dispel this spirit.
-Ruby wants to have a more adult Halloween/Birthday Party since she's turning 16. Shenanigans ensue.

I would point out that fear of clowns isn't silly it's perfectly justified and correct

I remember something that'll make it worse.
Big car = small penis.
Big feet = big penis.
So clowns with their massive feet and tiny cars are monsters.

Team AARN is best described as... Well... They had Team 7 Wave Country Mission Syndrome. STRQ had it to a point as well (They're the parents of the protagonists after all) but Team AARN's tended to get much more chaotic.
Ozpin: "So... Your mission was to rescue a lost boy from a village..."
Isabel: "And it turned into a battle for the fate of the valley when the local warlord found a Pre-Moonshatter device that turned him into a raging Grimm monster."
Ozpin's assistant, a Miss Cellaneous, is staring in disbelief.
Nick: "I cut him in half when the local priestess let us transfer Saia's energy blast into my sword with her Semblance!"
Arjun: "Yes, but my arrow strikes opened up the hole for you to hit him."
Isabel: "That wouldn't have happened at all without my expert leadership!" A pause. "Also the ancient temple of doom was destroyed, which is a real shame."
Nick: "Yeah, uh, I kind of cut it in half."
Isabel: "Sooo... What is our next mission?"
Cellaneous: "... You're going to guard some bridge builders. Just a nice, easy escort mission."
Isabel: "Good! We could use a break!"
And later...
Isabel: "Sooo... The mercenary group ISIS tried to summon a Super-Grimm to unleash upon South Vale but we managed to kill it."
Nick: "There was a prophecy about it and everything!" grins
Arjun: "Yes, which I clearly fulfilled."
Nick: "Nuh uh! I was clearly the one!"
Arjun: "No! I was!"
Saia: "Technically any of us could have fit the role, but we only defeated it with the power of friendship!"
Isabel: "Also hitting it really, really hard."
Saia: "That too!"
Ozpin: "... I see." sips his coffee "Well! Good job!"
Cellaneous: frazzled "O-Okay! Okay! Here's... A very simple mission! You just deliver this package to Count Testoasa in Hispania! He's a respected noble! Absolutely nothing strange or death defying!"
Isabel: "Good! Honestly, all these missions are just crazy!"
Nick: "I thought they were fun!"
Isabel: "You would, idiot..."
They leave. Cellaneous looks over at Ozpin.
Cellaneous: "I-I'm sure this is just a bit of bad luck... Right?"
Ozpin: "Of course! Third time's the charm!"
Some more time later...
Cellaneous: "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DESTROYED THE COUNT"S CASTLE AND KILLED HIM?!"
Isabel: "He had addicted his people to drugs and was threatening to kill them all if I didn't marry him and help him make better drugs!"
Nick: "Yeah! Also we cut his castle in half... Again."
Arjun: "Only after I blew up the foundation."
Nick: "Saia didn't need that to cut it in half! Though I did help her by swinging her like a sword!"
Saia: "D-Don't remind me, I'm still woozy."
Arjun: "Yes, about that... Did he touch you inappropriately?"
Saia: "My Prince, of course not!"
Nick: "How could you say that?! I only want to touch Izzy inappropriately!"
Isabel: "IDIOT!" Bonks Nick on the head, blushing
Nick: "OW! That's what you said!"
Ozpin: "Hm... Perhaps I should have named your team ARSN-Arson."
Nick: "That's not a color though!"
Ozpin: "Good point. Well... You did stop the drug trade and freed the city so I'm going to call this mission a success. Now, for your next assignment-"
Cellaneous: "AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
Miss Celleneaous took an early retirement after this.

Ruby: "We'll stop you."
Salem: "Your mother said...wait, hold up, you're Summer Rose's daughter? I thought she was a lesbian."
Ruby: "Wha...no! Mom was married to dad and she had me!"
Salem: "I'm relatively certain futa is just a genre of Mistrali pornography, no matter what that green-haired simp Cinder keeps around believes."
Ruby: "ICK! NO! My dad's Taiyang and Mom wasn't like that!"
Salem: "By the Dark Brother, you mean she was just using the poor man to hide her affair with Branwen? I knew she looked shifty!"
Yang: "Stop talking about our mom, you witch!"
Salem: "I'll talk however I - by the dark pools, another sapphic stereotype? First the edgelord gangster, now a biker? What's next, an otome-"
Salem stares at Weiss
Salem: "An otome princess and a genki autist, and a biker with a bookworm. Is this some new tactic by Ozma? To defeat me with yuri stereotypes?"
Blake: "How do you even know that word?"
Salem: "You'd be surprised at what I know, Kageneko#0119. Your writing is garbage, by the way. Absolute guttertrash."
Blake: *ears flatten*
Yang: *heroically stands in front of Blake*
Salem: "Oh hell no, I'm leaving before I end up kidnapping one of you in some twisted romance plot. That seems to be all the rage nowadays."
Salem: "Your mother said...wait, hold up, you're Summer Rose's daughter? I thought she was a lesbian."

...
you know she aint wrong with how RWBY has been done so poorly...honestly i feel for poor juane.
if he actually ends up a badass himbo like his dad though? the RWBY team might forgo yuri power for monogamy power/power couple. especially since juane is almost entirely built to help with that.
