So I've noticed that it's being heavily implied that Ruby's mother or mother-figure was killed by the Grimm (especially in the complete version of Red Like Roses II). I've also heard that Monty Oum has said that Ruby has no fear of death.

A lot of people use this as evidence of her purity or innocence, ignoring the implied dark backstory. I think the two are related, though; what if Ruby has no fear of death because she secretly wants to die?

The loss of someone so important to her has caused her to become passively suicidal. Passively suicidal people fail to remove themselves from dangerous situations or actively protect their life. This would explain why Ruby has rushed into so many obviously very dangerous situations in the show, several of which she's needed help escaping.

Any thoughts?
