It has not been mentioned to only affect Grimm, however. Rather, the only things that have been mentioned, are a general idea of it's effect on Grimm ("A gaze could strike a Grimm down", and it froze the Dragon. Is freeze their only effect? can it actually kill Grimm? Was Dragon frozen but not killed simply because it was strong enough?), and how the Grimm react to SEWs (with fear, which may or may not be for the obvious reasons).

All Qrow did was tell Ruby a summed-up version of the tales. About how SEWs were the Hunters before Hunters, basically. We never heard of anything they could do to people, but we never heard they don't do anything either. It could do nothing, it could just blind them, it could freeze them, it could do something else, and Aura may or may not participate in the equation.

Just wondering, does anyone have an idea of how Cinder's supposed scar looked? I have an idea but would need to see first what kind of scar are we talking about. SYUTK, I've already told you that I am NOT saying that Qrow said it only affects Grimm.

The placement of the word "only" is important here.

"Qrow only said it affects Grimm" = Qrow only talked about it affecting Grimm but didn't say anything about what it might do to a person.

"Qrow said it only affects Grimm" = Qrow said the only thing it affects is Grimm.

The first thing is what I'm saying. The second thing is what you think I'm saying, but I'm not. Okay?

And I heard her scar is X-shaped.
