Talk:List of minor characters in RWBY/@comment-120.148.155.139-20141028063430/@comment-226878-20141028213030

What do you know as a fact? Where has ever been stated that Sky, Dove, Scar, Sage, and especially Taiyang will make repeated appearances in the show. Sky and Dove have appeared in three episodes (I'm combining Forever Fall and its Part II), Scarlet and Sage have had one, and Taiyang has had no physical appearance in the show. Being the father of Ruby and Yang does not guarantee he'll show up later, that's just blatant speculation which is supposed to be discouraged on this site.

And it's a completely ridiculous speculation that to assume because we'll never know a character's real name, that they'll never be important. Aside from the fact that the Lt is referred to as the White Fang Lieutenant in the RWBY end credits, it's impossible to know early on what characters will become prominent later. Cinder wasn't formally introduced until the end of volume one. But we had a profile page for her and her two cronies long before volume 2 introduced them.

This argument is ludicrous.
