Ruby will be changed, with a darker/cynical personality. or at the very least, she will be more weary and cautious. Undoubtedly, considering how much evil she saw in the second half of Season 3, I think it's undeniable that she'll never be able to look at people the same way again. Her innocence, her views on good and evil, were shattered. I don't think she'll start murdering people like they were Grimm, but she'll be much more cautious when dealing with them.

As for the theories on Ironwood's fate, I can see that happening too. Undoubtedly he'd be court-martialed for that fiasco in Vale, facing a very real risk of execution. And as said earlier, his successor would not know of the Maidens or Ozpin's plans, so they'd be at a disadvantage. That is indeed very plausible. Can't wait to see how it all plays out. Until then...
