Fanmade SLVR "Silver" Trailer

[@justinpedrazaful]

Sow he can increase the density of any item or weapon he chooses but wouldn't he burn through a ludicrous amount of aura?

[@eddleegarcia4986]

@@justinpedrazaful Maybe with training, he's learned how much to release at a steady pace. So he doesn't use too much when fighting.

Well, in his last video Mark confirmed that Simin does't have a semblance. Which means that he doesn't have Aura. Right? Thats pretty interesting

Naori Kokorone Thanks, I try my best

[@naorikokorone5826]

Wolverine2101 Np. The fire sword kinda reminds me of a Zweihander though. Not as big, but still a two handed sword...

[@moonbells9225]

Oh man can I just say, Simin is really fascinating to me from a combat standpoint? Like, this dude has TWO styles for the ice dust (dual-wield and sword & shield - haha rhymes), one for the fire dust, presumably at least one for that brown dust we don't get to see him use, and while we only see him throw the wind dust lance like a javelin, it wouldn't be unreasonable to think he could, should the need arise, use it like a lance as well. That's at least 5 very different fighting styles, potentially 6 if he can indeed use the lance as a close-combat weapon and not just a projectile. On top of that, he was able to throw the fire dust flamberge (I see what you did there) like it was some sort of throwing knife! A full-sized flamberge!! Even made of dust, that could not have been easy!

[@moonbells9225]

an amendment to my comment because I can never get paragraphs to work and I don't want to make a block of text even longer, I just found out that a flamberge is not the only "flame-bladed sword" and that that blade Simin uses could also be a flambard, flammard, or flammenschwert. I don't know for sure which because I can't find clear images.

[@KinjiroTheThunder]

My favorite one is easily the wind dust lance

[@asuragaming6671]

And dont forget unarmed combat itself. Though what's stopping him from changing the weapons themselves? Or combining dust.

[@gorade1901]

@@asuragaming6671 Well, he did combine the fire and ice dust to create the mist he needed, so I guess he can to a certain extent mix them.

[@colbynelson2760]

Gorade Exactly!!! This is an amazing quality for a leader! Whereas Ruby had long and short range, this dude specializes in all forms of physical weapon combat and I’m all for it. On top of that we get elemental combos and weapons?! Like this dude is great!!!

[@noyou6815]

I love how he used the technique ironwood had talk about, ebrodering dust into his clothes, that was almost never shown in rwby, also the addition of a cover of papermoon made it even more astoundingly beautiful

[@Tahanok2]

Problem with adding it to the series is that it interferes with what Monty already wrote. Best you might get is seeing this team in the background somewhere, or being very, very minor characters.

[@Tahanok2]

lord acecil Monty had the story written up to around volume 7, with enough notes that the writers joked they could go up to 20 after that.

[@sephiroth21347]

Even more impressive than Charcoal trailer :D Dust jacket? What a brilliant way to use the "dust mixed with clothing" thing from the world of remnant video for a weapon idea. Although Im curious what his last form of weapon would be. We only saw wind, fire, and ice I believe.

[@CeranVA]

***** I forget, what _is_ the last element? If it was earth, I would imagine he would just get a nifty set of gauntlets.

[@sephiroth21347]

Brandon Coe Its brown so I would imagine its earth

[@CeranVA]

***** Eeeeaaaaarth. Maybe a stone hammer to emulate Nora?

[@Ark.Assembly]

***** Thank you. I'd like for it to be earth cause that would make sense given the other elements but judging from the world of remnant ep about dust, brown seems to be lightning.

[@atino7169]

Mark It was a weird brown and yellow from what I remember. I have a question though: Why did fire dust give him a fire dust sword? How did he create solid fire?

[@sefirot57]

I want to see his earth power... He just used fire and ice on Regalia's trailer

[@fortythealien7165]

Ragora, her name is ragora. The Regalia part refers to her color, just like simin's name is not silver ang vella's name isn't veridian.

[@Evilman_520]

@@fortythealien7165 that's the part that throws me off. Most (and I do mean most) of the names in RWBY are related to a color in some way. Some are even directly named after a color. Most of the rest of the names are related in some way to who they resemble. Pyrrha Nikos, for example, Pyrrha comes from the Greek term meaning "flame-colored" while Nikos is akin to Nike, greek goddess of victory. Veridian, for example, would have been a useable name. Not only is it the appropriate color, but it even SOUNDS like a name. Regalia, maybe not so much, but I also dont see the correlation to a color, with that nickname (if anyone can clarify). But Silver would've been a useable one too. Lycan is normal though, seeing as Sun is named after Sun Wukong. "Linen" being his nickname is a shout out to Velvet. It sorta matches his color scheme, but it's a tricky one to nail down.

[@gamma2589]

@@Evilman_520 *Le gasp!* Linen x Velvet is a _great idea!_ Thank you for your explanation! :D

[@katowoozy3664]

@@Evilman_520 Not everything in RWBY is a color reference. I understand where you're coming from since most do follow a color pattern, but not everyone does. If you looked on the wiki for Mark's SLVR team, you'll see that the names of the 4 SLVR members are actually all references to the moon in some way. Taken straight from the wiki: "Mark has confirmed that Team SLVR has a "lunar theme", as the moon is usually represented by the astrological metal silver and all of its members have allusions to figures that relate to it in some way, with their own personal emblems possessing a crescent shape in each individual design (though Simin's symbol is more reminiscent of a full moon marked by craters). Simin's surname "Megistus" comes from Hermes Trismegistus, a Greek name for the Egyptian moon god Thoth, who was also known for writing, magic, and alchemy. Lycan refers to a theme of werewolves given his Faunus heritage and his name referencing the Greek king and original werewolf Lyacon of Arcadia, which are known today for transforming into their beastly forms when the moon is full, as well as having an aversion to silver. Vella is an allusion to Vellamo, the Finnish goddess of the sea whose name relates to the movements of billowing waves and tides (an element seen with her emblem, glyphs, and the setting of her battle), which are affected by the position of the moon. Ragora's name references the Mandragora Officinarum, the term for the mandrake flower, which was associated with Witchcraft in folklore. Her overall theme is akin to that a Witch, and Witches, in turn, are associated with the Moon."

Though the animation is understandably not as fluid as the Canon show, this is beautiful and definitely multiple steps above the Charcoal Trailer, which was also incredible.

Around 3:06, the White Fang general gets thrown back. I suggest him scraping across the floor a little due to momentum. Also, at the beginning of the fight, when his arm is stretched out, I suggest more body language and facial expressions. Around 3:30, he forms icicles in his hands...His jacket is still set to fire. 3:52, when the frost smoke appears after he slams the sword down, his sword is facing sidewards, not down. Love the ending. Brings a really RWBY feel to it.

[@AnonChisei]

Another great piece of work - great idea with the Dust weapons - as awesome as Monty's momentum-based "It's also a gun" style was, it's also nice to see development into other forms of weaponized Dust. Great job making it your own! Considering you've done all this yourself (barring the assets you acknowledged), and you're still sticking with it, I wouldn't be surprised if you did end up getting a job offer from RT. Keep up the good work!

[@000Dragon50000]

AnonChisei I feel that this idea could even be woven into the whole isolated cities thing from the map they gave us... Maybe in the cities containing Beacon and it's sibling school the styles revolve around incorporating guns into weaponry, while in the other two other styles of combat are used

[@95dubstepfan]

Just watched Charcoal for the first time right before this. Loved it. Loved this. Love it all. In this one, like the previous one, the weapons are genius!

[@Pyrithe]

tunedude19 Why not so likely though? Nothing against Rooster Teeth, but if anything, now should be the best time to be seeking fan help. As a creator myself, if I had to choose between my fans who love the world or the company that just wants to continue it for a paycheck (again, nothing against Rooster Teeth, I know they care more than that), I'd personally want my fans involved because they love the series and would be a great asset, such as we see here with the Silver trailer. Not everyone has tons of skill and talent, my characters are only on pen and paper, but when someone like this comes along, it might be worth looking into hiring them.

You did it again Mark. I'm... wow that was awesome. I was shocked that you managed to get/develop White Fang designs, and then you pulled out the dust jacket. You also managed to pull off more fluid movements with the models. If you develop your style further, I think the next thing you should work on is effects. I realize you're limited with what you can use, but if there was one thing that the dust jacket could have improved on, it was the effects of forming/destroying the weapons. I can't wait to see what you put out next.

[@000Dragon50000]

Dulcet Tone I'm expecting another team member next or maybe a black-trailer style development between this guy and brendan (Or maybe even he runs through the whole team and then gives us one with all four/five) All in all these trailers really manage to convey a darker feeling than the main RWBY series, which is an interesting contrast...

[@redemption2]

It just occurred to me; even though you said his 4th Dust element would either be earth or lightning, right now I can't help but envision him wielding metal--specifically *gold!* Even though it'd clash with his "silver" theme, it's also a metal more valued than silver--it would be irony for Simin to wield it but then no one would see it coming. Since Simin's 4th element hasn't been used, it would be pretty neat to see him using something more surprising, or at least less predictable than say earth or lightning. But since it's yellow/tan, gold's merely what I thought of. Not to mention, as a metal, it has at least some relationship to both earth and lightning. Metal's purified earth and gold is the best conductor of electricity. But that's just my thought. There hasn't been a metal Dust type of any kind in RWBY yet, but until they actually lay out *all* the elements, I wouldn't fear making up a Dust element.

[@jsdotigboigamer]

Rooster Teeth need to add someone like Silver to their series. His weapon is lit. Also is his semblance to manipulate dust... it would make sense with how he uses his weapons.

[@arturv.a.4542]

Check Linnen trailer description, Simin(Silver)'s semblance is actually to keep things solid or harder to break. The dust weapons are actually the jacket itself.

[@rubyrose139]

Ooooooh~ dat weapon tho (•3•)

[@Washingtub-senpai]

oye esa ma....really, Ruby????

[@Washingtub-senpai]

oye esa ma....really, Ruby????

[@jurie6314]

u really need to give yang a hand right now ruby

[@Pslyse]

is it just dust, or does it include semblance

[@WhiteDragon1001]

Ruby Rose hiiii!

[@copicreatives7201]

This is so cool! The amount of thought you integrated was so amazing! And I loved the little allusion to The red trailer at the end! This was so creative and entertaining to watch!

[@JustDaZack]

This is essentially the movie playing in my head whilst going to the dentist

[@a.z.pantera5577]

If I may ask Mark, how did you come up with the name "Simin Megistus"? I'm assuming it's pronounced like "sye-men". Not sure if someone asked already. Anyway, I love this video and the design of the character. I never would've thought of clothing doubling as a weapon (also silver is my favorite color XD) This definitely captures the essence of the series. Keep it up, good sir.

[@Ark.Assembly]

+Austin Hicks Thanks alot! Cinder had clothing that was a weapon though. Simin is pronounced like Simon and means silvery in persian. Megistus comes from Hermes Trismegistus, the greek name for Thoth who was the egyptian moon god and the moon can be silvery.

[@a.z.pantera5577]

That's really cool. It goes without saying you put a lot of thought into Simin. Also you what's funny is that there is a clothing company named "Simin Couture". Whether you knew that or not, that's a happy coincidence that his weapon is clothing XD

[@Lucifer_Crowe]

+Tyler Borge that is EXACTLY why Mercury uses boots, he's Hermes' counterpart, and Hermes was know for winged boots, hence Mercury's symbol too

[@tingispingis]

+Mark Cinder's clothes just glow when she uses her powers. They aren't her weapon.

[@Lucifer_Crowe]

Zeromus correct, they aren't her weapon, but the dust IN her clothes helps her with her Glass Weapon's I believe

[@winteress7298]

...jeez this is like plain awesome, keep it up dude :D

[@EmperorofThings]

Your characters are so unique and interesting, theres nothing quite like them. They all have unique designs, really cool weapons and amazing semblances, from Silver who can make weapons out of dust, to Linen who practically can send an afterimage of himself to take on the action he was going to do, while he himself does a different one. All of them are so amazing and well done it reminds me of how RWBY was, how RWBY should have been. Keep it up.

[@Jediahbear]

Dude I love this. A lot of people make all of their OCs super overpowered. But this is fantastic. Not OP, great semblance, great weapon. He must have to wash that jacket a lot lol

[@madalyncray569]

I don’t remember how many times I’ve watched this now, but it’s a lot lol...just waiting for that elusive R from SLVR 😭

[@securityg1618]

The Cut at 3:03 was awesome!

[@allyrose9494]

I was already liking this trailer, and the fact Papermoon was the song just made it even better

[@Flashshadow]

He may be Silver, but I give that performance a GOLD! X3 But, seriously... That was pretty awesome! :D

[@edescobar1025]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT ROOSTER TEETH NEEDS TO HIRE YOU LIKE NOW!!!

[@zoroarka9969]

i just came from the regalia trailer and I instantly fell in love

[@variansloth]

Really cool dust usage! And the fight scene made me think I may have been watching Monty's work again, got emotional. I see this was years ago so will be looking for more recent work.

[@Pundae]

i noticed that soul eater season 2 music the second i started the video. nice choice lol. once again, good job on the animation btw. i love that transition when he changes his weapon :D very creative

[@KishinHunter24]

OMG I KNOW RIGHT??!!!?

[@sebbes333]

LOL, I love that Ruby Red-style ending :D

[@beausodemann1451]

You know, I love all of your trailers, but this, in my opinion, is your best

[@thefastsnake3015]

SLVR and Charcole chold stop being fanmade and start being canon :D

[@thefastsnake3015]

***** yes "THATS A WONDERFULL IDEA" HA IKEA

[@erickajoyflore7109]

were dose the R come in? and dose charcoal have a team?

[@Blizzic]

Hey dude, go ask for job at RT This fight scene is better than most of the scenes in Volume 3 so far

[@sargeanthawk4108]

I love the design of this character, please reach out to rooster teeth so he can become canon

[@clovercat1227]

Your fanmade trailers are amazing! I really feel that your characters fit realistically into the RWBY universe.

[@AgentHysteria]

DANG! you came a long way! If you need a voice actor let me know ;)

[@sephiroth21347]

Agent Hysteria I wouldnt mind helping too but Idk how good of one I would make :D

[@HollowMoonFan]

Agent Hysteria ikr....

[@pinoylayko]

Agent Hysteria We should send make a couple of lines that this character would say, voice and record it, and send an mp3 to a collective website or something. Totally up for the voice acting :D

[@AgentHysteria]

we can :P

[@RangerCado]

Agent Hysteria All agreed. Just say the word Mark and you will have all your fans support on this. :D

[@karma_xx6939]

okay, but like hear me out he would probably IF he had a semblance it would possibly be something underrated like element resistance because have you seen how he uses his skill AND he just makes something like that seem powerful

[@Alex-ul5iv]

Holy heck the music is paper moon from soul eater. THESE ARE MY LEGIT TWO FAVORITE SHOWS RWBY AND SOUL EATER. I swear they need to make this a spin off show or something of this this was really cool.

[@austinbaker8042]

This is actually super awesome. Was waaaay better than I was expecting great job. :)

[@Ginsenguy]

Emiya Shirou looks interesting in this one 👀

[@sciophobiaxl6227]

Wow very nice...!

[@darksteelgamma]

Really great, though you don't seem to be capitalizing on Dust all that much. You're only focusing on him using it to make his weapons, and not how Dust can be used in it's raw form with it's abilities. His ability to control the Dust types to manipulate the battlefield to his advantage should be focused on, such as trapping an enemies feet in ice, using air to knock a group of enemies away. Or just using Dust to attack in general, ice shards, fire balls, etc. Otherwise, he wouldn't really be using Dust for it's intended purpose as an energy propellant and would more be using it as a means to fight hand to hand, even though far more options are viable to him, which isn't how Dust has been shown to do. Don't misunderstand me, the ability to solidify the Dust output is an amazing idea, but it seems that's all that was focused on. (BTDubs: This isn't so much criticism as it is some notice, but ice isn't one of the types of Dust. Ice Dust is created from a combination of Air and Water Dust. Just for future reference.)

[@MommaBara]

I love this character's way about it's weapon. A unique and interesting take with dust!

[@Vouc.]

the song had to be from soul reaper........ good job

[@Phandomdrifter]

I was about to say soul eater

[@jsnxn18]

yeah but listen to the link he gives, and then to the version this video plays, the voice is female not male, it's nearly impossible to find this version of the song.

[@Phandomdrifter]

+jsnxn18 yeah but thier are male and female version of the song these days

[@jsnxn18]

what i mean is I like This version of the song, Better singing, No different lyric, dubbing, Nightcore, any of that. Just This version better, without the battle in the background. the battle's good but the Song sets the atmosphere"

[@Phandomdrifter]

Yeah it does

[@aug205]

i love silver weapon is awesome

[@majksu]

I just shed a tear, wow. Amazing job.

[@dragonrage500]

This guys a badass :D The dust/suit thingy is cool. wonder what other weapons or goodies can be made through that suit :D

[@dragonrage500]

Like the ability to mix the dust into different weaponry for that steam explosion move too. :D

[@caitlin5742]

First off . . . loved the trailer, animation was 99% spot on. I only have a confusion on the weapon, does it ever run out of dust? Also another question is how exactly does the weapon work? I'm sort of a weapon geek like Ruby, so I'm more than a little curious as to how the weapon does what it does. Overall, I really liked this video. XD

[@jamesmiller2915]

+girl gamer Well, technically the weapon could probably run out of dust, but I'm sure he's pretty loaded.

[@nerderonofficial]

+James Miller Damn straight

[@ThatBlueWanderer]

Me at 4:10: BUT WHATS THE FOURTH WEAPON?!

[@alejandroverdin9445]

hamer ?

[@YourSceaneRadio]

Ok, this character concept and music choice is amazing

[@Runa-gr2ks]

What's the power of his fourth color? We see blue, red and green but there are 4 color on his back.
