Didn't mean to make her an sjw, here's a better version. One that at least the viewers can understand why she's doing this, but in order to make this work it has to be an AU rather than fixing what we got.

Basically Cinder wanted to become the Fall Maiden because she was led to believe she would inherit those powers. When she was young she was abandoned by her step family in Vale (she was born on Mistral, they just left her in Vale). Like Emerald, she was forced to survive on the streets until she met Ozpin, who took her in and practically raised her in Beacon. She wanted to become a huntress and enrolled once Ozpin trained her the basics of combat and unlocked her Semblance. During her time there Ozpin realized she would become the next fall Maiden and Cinder slowly became arrogant and aggressive in her attempts to prove she's worthy...buuut something happened, prior to Ozpin telling her about the maidens, Amber's predecessor contracted a disease and was slowly dying. When Ozpin send Cinder to her in order for her to be the last person in her thoughts, the Fall Maiden didn't think about Cinder and the powers went randomly...it went to Amber though. Cinder was furious, Ozpin lied to her. She became paranoid in searching for the power she was promised and set out to find it, only to find Salem, who manipulated her, saying Ozpin never wanted her to become a maiden, but she gave Cinder a gift: the enchanted Glove, it will give her the power to wield all four maiden powers, now Cinder had a new motivation get the power and kill Ozpin for his betrayal. Also she still secretly plotted in taking Salem's power and once both of them are out of the picture, Cinder could become the new Goddess of Remnant and make the world in her own image, one where there is no suffering, no violence, no Grimm.

Again this doesn't have to correlate with Canon, it's just an AU.
