My RWBY OC done by the amazing @yellownicky
Ylva Fenris a wolf Faunus standing at a staggering 6'2".
She lost her arm in her youth when she was living at an orphanage, warning this story will get a little graphic.
She was out playing when she got separated from her friend, and when she found her, she was being attacked by a Beowolf. It was alone, separated from its pack when Huntsmen tracked it down. But they had lost its trail, leaving the two girls alone.
In this moment, Ylva's Semblance awoke, and she went into a blind fury. It's called Berserk, and it causes her body to internalize her aura, allowing energy to surge through her body, allowing her to perform feats of incredible strength and not feel a bit of pain. The trade off being that it robs her of defense, and the rush of energy messes with her mind, making it nearly impossible for her to think straight.
And so, in this state, Ylva was able to overpower a Beowolf at the age of 12, with heavy cost. Her face and body were gouged and scarred, and the uncontrolled strength she unleashed as she pummeled the Grimm with her left fist caused the muscles to tear and bones to splinter. That, combined with the Beowolf's defensive bites and tears, left her left arm unsalvagable and it had to be amputated.
Soon after her recovery, she was adopted by a local retired Hunter who thought it best to train her to control her Semblance, least she get herself killed with it.
