Winter Schnee

Winter Schnee is a character in RWBY who first appeared in "It's Brawl in the Family". She is the elder sister of Weiss and Whitley Schnee and formerly a part of the Special Operatives Unit in the Atlas Military. In "Amity", she was made the leader of the Ace Operatives. Despite being the eldest child, Winter's right to inherit the Schnee Dust Company was abdicated upon her decision to become a Soldier and join the Atlesian Military. Winter Schnee next power: Maidens Following the death of Penny Polendina in "The Final Word", Winter gained the powers of the Winter Maiden. When active, her eyes emit an ice blue fire around them, the color matching her Aura. Despite having only held the Maiden's power for mere moments, she was easily able to match the more experienced Cinder Fall in their subsequent battle. Due to Winter receiving training on how to use the Maiden powers before Fria died, she was able to face Cinder on much more even ground. Her Semblance already functioning like a spell being cast also increased her understanding of her powers. During her battles with both James Ironwood and Cinder, she displayed numerous feats such as being able to fly by emanating snowy wisps around her body, create a layer of ice capable of reflecting concentrated blasts of Fire Dust and produce powerful blasts of ice and electricity at her targets.
