Character from Volume 5 by Rooster Teeth
The cat Faunus who stopped running. Blake rallied the Faunus of Menagerie, brought an army to Haven, and faced Adam Taurus on her own terms — proving she could stay and fight instead of disappearing.
Blake came back. That's the thing that matters — after a lifetime of running, of leaving copies of herself behind while the real Blake slipped away, she came back. She rallied the Faunus of Menagerie, convinced them that Adam's White Fang didn't speak for all of them, and brought reinforcements to Haven Academy just as Adam's forces attacked. The confrontation with Adam at Haven is a turning point. Blake faces the man who controlled her, branded her partner, and tried to destroy everything she loved — and she doesn't run. She stands in front of Haven Academy with the people of Menagerie at her back and tells Adam that the White Fang is done following him. His humiliation is total and public. He retreats, but he won't forget. Ilia Amitola — Blake's old friend from the White Fang — switches sides during the battle, helping Blake after struggling with the reality of what Adam's faction has become. The friendship is complicated by the fact that Ilia nearly got Blake's parents killed, but forgiveness is something Blake understands better than most. Reuniting with Yang is charged. Blake left without a word after Beacon, and Yang lost an arm saving her. The trust isn't rebuilt in a day. But Blake is here, and she's staying. Her Semblance, Shadow, creates afterimage clones that absorb hits — she can now infuse them with Dust for elemental variants.
Lean and graceful with amber eyes that catch the light like a cat's and long black hair that falls to her mid-back. Black cat ears sit openly atop her head — she has stopped hiding them. Wears a black buttoned vest over a white sleeveless undershirt, white shorts with a zipped-up belt, black low-heeled boots, and a black detached sleeve on her left arm. Purple gradient accents throughout. Wields Gambol Shroud, a variant ballistic chain scythe.
